Pretty interesting pre- "Dark Side Of The Moon" - different exclusive versions of the songs from the famous classic album.
LP # 1 :
In 1972, England's "Rainbow Theatre" was booked for three shows for press introduction to Dark Side of the Moon but soon a fourth show was set due to the big response.
This extra show was to be played on Sunday 20th February 1972 at 8:00 p.m.
For the first time the title Dark Side of the Moon was used.

In "The Free Program of Rainbow Theatre, n.13" we can read: "The Dark Side of the Moon - A Piece for Assorted Lunatics"

A month before FLOYD were in this theater to rehearse for three days, to try the new suite together with the new mixer, the new quadraphonic system and the new light show.
The suite was performed ten times around England before the Rainbow' nights.
It already changed a little from first couple of nights in Brighton and Portsmouth.
Eclipsed was added. More changes would occur before the end of the year.

Given the publicity and importance of this set of shows, and especially of the opening night, Pink Floyd sound understandably tense and nervous. They play the Dark Sidesuite very cautiously, emphasizing each note and trying to be careful not to make any mistake. “On The Run” is a nice jam between Gilmour and Wright, and “The Mortality Sequence” contains the Muggeridge speech.

“Money” is restrained, as is “Any Color You Like.” Overall the performance is highly effective, but would grow much better in the ensuing days. ........................................................................................................

LP #2 :

On the 16th of July, 1970, Pink Floyd made a landmark appearance on the "Peel Sunday Concert" from the Paris Cinema in London. Performing well developed versions of "The Embryo" and "Green is the Color" seamlessly segueing into "Careful with that Axe, Eugene" (three lives staples from that era), they also premiered two new pieces, "If" and the grandiose "Atom Heart Mother" suite. The latter, which was the title track of their new album (taking up an entire side of the vinyl), saw the band accompanied by the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble performing before a live audience, and was 1st broadcast on the 19th of July (and repeated throughout the 1970's).


On the 30th of September, 1971, Pink Floyd returned to London's Paris Cinema to promote their soon to be released new album, "Meddle." The songs featured were "Fat Old Sun," "One of These Days I'm Going to Cut You into Little Pieces,
and finally "Echoes." This show was also performed before a live audience and was later broadcast on Peel's "In Concert" program on the 12th of October.


This was the first time that two key songs from their new album were performed on the BBC. "Echoes" had been through a number of iterations, originally starting out as a collection of unrelated segments stitched together and originally titled "The Return of the Son of Nothing."


Peel's dry sense of humor can be heard as he introduces this song, casually mentioning that the group's roadies Pete and Scott find it to be "a rather good number." Likewise, he sarcastically puts down Roger Waters' equally sarcastic contention that "Echoes" was about "modern contemporary society." [Peel makes this comment for "One of These Days" actually - ed] "One of These Days" was introduced as "Nick Mason's Vocal debut, which I am assured," announces Peel, "he will do without moving his lips."


While "Echoes" and "One of These Days" would soon appear on "Meddle, "Fat Old Sun" had been previously released on "Atom Heart Mother," and was expanded into a fourteen minute epic, showcasing the instrumental talents of Gilmour and Wright.

This is classic Pink Floyd, well on the way to becoming the mature band that would soon reach world-wide fame with it's 1973 album "The Dark Side of the Moon." What we have on this performance is a tight, professional band, who unlike in later years, found room for improvisation and a looseness that would slowly disappear from their repertoire.


Fans of the latter day Pink Floyd might be disappointed with this show, considering that the songs are slower and do not feature any of Gilmour's blistering guitar solos or Roger's biting and dark lyrics. But long-time fans of the band will delight in this golden era recording. This was a Pink Floyd performance without the aid of a sophisticated light show, lasers, back-up performers or inflatable pigs. This was purely the talents of Roger Waters on bass, David Gilmour on lead guitar and vocals, Richard Wright on keyboards and vocals and Nick Mason on drums (and pre-recorded vocals).
