Two month later, the Floyd began their 1972 tour, playing the ' Dark Side Of The Moon' for the first time. This is one of the last concerts from the ' Meddle' tour. Due to its rarity and good quality, this disc is recommended. Oil Well version has a fine cover, fine quality. Second half of recording is released on ' Eugene' - RSC CD 105 This album is a digital clone of: ' Process Of Creation' - Highland – HL250/51 CD1 Richard Wright – piano, keyboards, vocals Roger Waters – bass guitar, percussion, vocals Live in Lisner Auditorium, Washington DC - NovemVol.1 Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun 14:24 The album also has the dubious honor of containing the song most often voted by Floyd fans as the group's worst: the slow, bluesy 'Seamus,' complete with howling dog.3. The version we play on 'Floydian Slip' is the gold Mobile Fidelity Ultradisc II pressing, which is the version pictured. The song was released as a single in the United States, backed with 'Fearless.' The album peaked at number 70 on the Billboard chart in the States. 'One of These Days' features drummer Nick Mason in his only lead vocal, if it can be called that. 'Echoes' has remained one of the Floyd's longest studio recordings, clocking in at more than 23 minutes.īefore 'Meddle' was finished, the band moved the project over to Air Studios and Morgan Studios, so that it could use one of the first 16-track recorders available in England. Passed through a Leslie rotating speaker, keyboardist Rick Wright's 'ping' kicked off side two of the album, an opus that began its life with working titles such as 'Return of the Son of Nothing' and 'We Won the Double,' but, like 'Atom Heart Mother,' was renamed at the last minute before a group appearance on the John Peel radio show.

The album's centerpiece began with a simple keyboard note, that would go on to become perhaps the most recognized single note in the Floyd catalog.

Not surprisingly, progress along that route was slow. David Gilmour has said that in an attempt to stir the creative juices, they even went so far as to record separate instruments on different tracks, with each musician not having heard the previous tracks. The group booked Studio 2 at EMI's Abbey Road facility for the month of January 1971, without so much as a stitch of a song written ahead of time. Floyd took a different approach when recording its 'Meddle' album.
