Ahh Outtakes from Outer Space!! The fisrt RoIO I recieved! It is an exellant roio for starters who wish to hear what The Pink Floyd (w/ Syd) sounded like. Most of it is from live performance, but some are studio outtakes. The sound quality is very good, but I think most of these can be found on other recordings, in better quality, but what makes this recording special to me (beside the the fact that it was my first) is the track listing. All of Syd's works (with the exeption of course of the cover of Slim Harpo "I'm a King Bee"). What makes this recording a must, imho, is the two studio outtakes from 1967 (from the Piper at the gates of Dawn studio recording sessions) track 5 Experiment (also known as Sunshine) and track 14 Silas Lane (which was later recycled by syd as Swan Lee (Silas Lang)for his solo album). Especially that last one, AMAZING!!! The only drawback is that it is too short (1:16). Makes you wonder how they would have sound as finished tracks on the PatGoD lp) But, they also include a rare outtake of Milky Way, wich isn't a Floyd outtake but rather a rare Syd solo outtakes (strangely enough they didnt date it, my guess would be 1970 for the madcap session) -egosumdei@hotmail.com
