Sound Quality: A
Performance: C
Overall: 3/5 Storage
This short set was broadcast on Europe 1 AM radio so the quality is very good but the performance had some issues, see below.
Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun: There was a lot of improvisation work here which is good but the problem with this sometimes is one of the musicians will come up with something that is really interesting, as Dave does here, but you have to pull it back in and get back to the song. In this case they went off on a really nice tangent but you get the feeling they had to keep themselves in check somewhat so they ended it pretty quick. I would have liked to see where that had gone.
Cymbaline: After the first vocal section the guitar solo has a little low volume, stupid french announcer talks over the part where the sound effects should be.
Atom Heart Mother: Orchestrations, bleck! The start is muddled like they didn't work out a good cue. I don't want to harp but the choir and brass really screw this song every time they appear. The last couple of minutes also seem to be an attempt to fill time. I imagine the radio engineer giving a signal to keep going!
Good sound quality but easily missable.
