THE MUSIC AND PRESTON BLACK Pink Floyd, Deutschlandhalle, West Berlin, West Germany, January 29, 1977


From THE DEVIL AND PRESTON BLACK:

     Jesse came in, singing something else to himself, and helped Ernie at the stove. Jamie and I went back and forth, playing songs I hadn't thought about in years. Jamie was happier than a tick on a fat dog and he laughed easily. "The Rain Song." "Goodbye Blue Sky" and "Dogs." Israel Kamakawiwi Ole's "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World" medley. Old Jimmy Buffett. Some Beatles B stuff, whatever that means. "Mother Nature's Son" and some other White Album stuff. I didn't know as much Dylan as Jamie thought I should. I told him I'd work on it if he listened to more Wilco and Black Keys. Whenever either of us forgot chords or words we helped each other out.

Comments: soundboard + Audience sheep and dogs are from "darkside of the pig". potwpt1&2 and pigs are from "desktape". potw pt1 had to have the left chanel removed and was replaced with the right channel. this created less hiss and better clarity."berlin day 1" was used to fill the gap in the beginning of Pigs. Disc2 is completely from "berlin day 1" except the little repeating part in shine on was fixed. both discs were normalized. UPDATED: sheep,dogs,potwpt1&2,and pigs all ran too slow. they were speed corrected. Enjoy. --Do Not Encode To mp3-- --A Happy Pig Production-- ////// Sound quality is VG+, the animals set sounds ok let's say.... and the audience source is very hissy...
