I have always been fascinated with the seemingly impromptu
"Blues' numbers that the Floyd started playing mostly as encores in early 1970
so I decided to put togehter a "Compilation" of the "Best Sounding" and "Rarest"
versions I could find. This is by no means every "Blues" they did but the ones I
feel standout for either Quality or Rarity...
Being a rabid Floyd Fan but by no means a "Floydophile" I would welcome any
comments and additions to the ones I have on these Two CD's...
The first refernce I have seen for Pink Floyd playing the"Blues" is on the ROIO
"Mothers-Birmingham" March 8,1970 but there is some debate wether this roio is
even from this date. I have never been able to obtain it to listen to the
"Blues" encore on it to give my opinion.
The first date that the "Blues" was officialy played acording to the PF-DB is
March 13,1970 and is included here as the first track on Disc I "Technische
Universitat Blues" and was played at the Konzert Saal, Technische Universitat
West Berlin,Germany.
The Last Date(other than Montreal-1977) the "Blues" was played acording to the
PF-DB was December 1,1972 at the Palais des Sports de L'ile de la Jatte,Saint
Ouen,France and is included here as Track 7 on Disc 2 "Saint Ouen Blues" and is
one of the rare times the "Blues" was not played as an encore.
I would especialy welcome any and all information as to when the "Blues" was
truly first played,and last played,why they started playing it,why they stiopped
playing it and any other comments by the Floyd themselves and "Floydophiles" as
well that are related to the "Blues" by Pink Floyd.
I want to especialy thank the collector(who wishes to remain anonymous)who
provided me with "Montreal Matrix Blues" (His Remaster) and the unreleased 1st
generation "Santa Monica Blues"...a true "Blues" Rarity
Thanks...
