In 1998 a recording of Hendrix at Clark University in 1968 was
found in the BBC archives after research by an employee at the National Sound
Archives in London. This recording was subsequently released by Experience
Hendrix on their dagger label. Shortly after the Hendrix had surfaced I asked
the contact at the NSA if he had access to any Pink Floyd recordings. He was
able to book out and copy the 1970 and 1971 shows to DAT. He later found the
complete broadcast of the 1968 Top Gear show which was also transferred to DAT.
At that time CDR was still a relatively new format and I sent the two concert
DATs to a friend in the States to copy to CDR. The CDRS made it safely back
across the Atlantic but the DATs, which had been sent separately, went missing
somewhere in transit.
There is nothing new here, all that is new is a fresh transfer from the original
CDRs and in the case of the 1968 broadcast, the DAT. This package brings these
three mono masters together for the first time.
