Early Floyd concert recording found

Posted December 10, 2010 by Floydian Slip

What might be the only surviving complete recording of a Pink Floyd concert from 1967 was recently discovered, according to Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter (News of the Day).

The recording, made at Stockholm’s Golden Circle restaurant/music club on Sept. 10, 1967, reportedly includes the band’s sound-check along with its 50-minute gig.

It’ll be played for the public at two events to be held at the Golden Circle on May 3 and 7, 2011.

A Floyd cover band is scheduled to open the festivities, which include a special menu with dishes named as Floyd puns and specially-designed mannequins standing in for the original band members.

The recording was made by a Swedish recording engineer who, so far, has chosen to remain anonymous, according to Dagens Nyheter, to avoid the inevitable barrage of interest from Floyd fans.
