i was just checking out your info on this particular gig...

i live in hamilton, where the concert took place, and thought i might add a few things to your info pile... first off, this is the only classic gig to come to hamilton, ever... ivor wynne stadium is an open-air football field which stands in the middle of hamilton's most depressed residential area... 28 june 1975... whoever couldn't get into the stadium could hear it for miles around from rooftops, backyards, and open kitchen windows... that entire part of town was stoned immaculate... needless to say, the authorities had a bit of a problem following the show... that was the last time anyone ever played music on that field, and it should stay that way... i'm sure the abundant floyd fans saw to it that the band was properly "in tune" for the entire event... and it shows...

as a collector of live concert recordings, i must say that this particular show stands out the way the MSG shows stand out for led zeppelin fans....

local recordings of the floyd ivor wynne gig feature the complete concert, including raving & drooling, you've gotta be crazy, shine on 1-5, have a cigar, shine on 6-9, all of dark side, and, as an encore, echoes...

i've noticed that none of the recordings of this gig in your archive feature echoes... and there's even a sax solo in it... the quality is very good to excellent considering it is an audience recording, especially since the audience is silent (zoned) throughout the performance of the songs...
