FACTORY SEALED ... impressive collectors copy, unreleased in the retail market... finds the original PINK FLOYD in their early daze - Syd Barrett at the controls of the band... THIS BEAUTIFUL COPY contains a bonus PHOTO-POSTER which may be worth the reason to grab the item, despite the historic recording of the vinyl...

The original Pink Floyd group performed for one night at the Golden Circle auditorium in Stockholm Sweden in May of 1967. The audience experienced a unique recording, and the members on stage seemed to turn into the form of dolls in motion.

The Pink Floyd concert, featuring the band's founder Syd Barrett, played material from their "Pipers At The Gates Of Dawn" in exclusive-to-this-recording versions which for the first time was played in public, in Sweden.

A famous Swedish sound engineer caught this Pink Floyd performance on his Revox recorder. He wished to remain anonymous to avoid being hassled by the group's many admirers and others who might want to buy his unique first generation recording used for this limited release.
Sub-standard PAs are a characteristic of this tour.  The band complained about it in the press, and is very noticeable on this recording.  The vocals were mixed low and much of the show are long improvisations, especially in the first two numbers “Mathilde Mother” and “Pow R Toc H.”

Other highlights include the following:
“Scream Thy Last Scream” was Barrett’s latest single at the time, a follow up to “See Emily Play,” and is his personal highlight in this set.  The middle section has hard and abrasive riffs reminiscent of garage.  It reaches an intense climax before coming to an end.  

Roger Waters’ “Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun” follows.  His vocals can be heard quite clearly.  It’s a quick tempo performance but it still gives a glimpse into their “space rock” phase yet to come, a structured psychedelic masterpiece.

“See Emily Play” is the nicest surprise.  Although there are several TV performances, this is the first recording of the song in front of a live audience in a concert setting.  The vocals are very low but the instruments are clear.  The sped-up piano in the studio recording was replaced here by a stomping riff used to mark time.  It is a tricky song to play live and there are some rough parts, but Barrett’s slide guitar is very interesting.

The set closes with a nine minute “Interstellar Overdrive.”  It sounds very aggressive with a brilliant improvisation in the middle.
