S2: THE EMBRYO/SET THE CONTROLS FOR THE HEART OF THE SUN
S3: A SAUCERFUL OF SECRETS
S4: ATOM HEART MOTHER
SQ: EXCELLENT
COMMENTS: GERMAN BOOTLEG. COPY OF ‘PINK FLOYD’ (1,2,3,4) RE-ISSUED MANY TIMES WITH 'PINK FLOYD' AND ‘PINK FLOYD LIVE’ ADDED TO (NON LAMINATED) FRONT COVER. SOME WITH TRACK LISTING ON REAR COVER (THERE WERE TWO DIFFERENT VARIATIONS IN THE PRINT TYPE - THE PICTURE ON THE RIGHT IS THE RARER OF THE TWO). PRINT QUALITY NOT AS FINE AS ORIGINAL ISSUE AND SOUND QUALITY NOT AS GOOD WITH SOME PRESSINGS HAVING DISTORTION DURING LOUD PASSAGES OF MUSIC. THE MOST COMMON PRESSING HAS DELUXE YELLOW LABELS. STILL A GREAT BOOTLEG AND HARD TO FIND IN GOOD CONDITION. THIS VERSION OFTEN SELLS FOR HIGH PRICES ALTHOUGH IT’S RELATIVELY EASY TO FIND COMPARED TO THE ORIGINAL. IT SEEMS THAT SOME COLLECTORS DO NOT DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THIS AND THE ORIGINAL (1,2,3,4) PRESSING. ORCHESTRA AND CHOIR ON 'ATOM HEART MOTHER'.
RARITY RATING: ***
