Pink Floyd Studio Sessions

   

31.10.66     

Floyd went to Thompson Private Recording Company in Hemel Hempstead, UK to make test recordings.

Let's Roll Another One" studio session. (3':30). The quality of the recording was dreadful. (They also supposedly recorded "I Get Stoned", "Interstellar Overdrive" and "Lucy Lee In Blue Tights").

 

Late .66

London. “Lucy leave” and “King bee” recording sessions.

“Lucy leave” - 2:50, “King bee” - 3:02

 

00.00.67

Syd Barrett demo tapes.

This was a Syd Barrett solo recording done for Joe Boyd which had some really cheerful, melodic tunes. One of the tracks was "Boom Tune", which the Purple Gang were going tp cover. Unfortunately, Mr.Boyd lost this valuable tape!!! We have no idea about what else was it. (Possibly recorded in the summer of 1967)

11.01.67     

Sound Techniques Studios, Chelsea, London, UK.

The Floyd recorded "Interstellar Overdrive", "Let's Roll Another One", and "Arnold Layne" on this date. "Let's Roll Another One" would later become "Candy and a Currant Bun", with a few changes in the lyrics (and meaning).

The original running order for “Piper” is partly indicated by the library notation, for the assembled album, done on July 13th. The library card indicated:

Side One: Take up thy stethoscope... - 5 titles. Interstellar overdrive, not Take up... was the eventual opener for side two, and another, unspecified title, was added to side one to make up six songs. The library card places the LP matrix number against the above tape, although the one that follows (18.07.67) is the correct running order, and therefore the true LP master.

Recording sessions at EMI Abbey Road, Studio 3 from 2:30pm-midnight.

(Start of the "Dark Side Of The Moon" sessions)

00.06.72     

"Dark Side Of The Moon" Outtakes recorded, sometime during these June 1972 sessions at Abbey Road Studios.

(15:00, Time, 6:15, Brain Damage, 3:30, Us and Them, 5;25)

These different versions had to come at the start of the "Dark Side Of The Moon" sessions because the songs appear to be finalized by the fall of 1972. The difference in the tracks from the LP versions are as follows:

"Time" has no guitar solo after the "No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun" line. It also has no "Breathe Reprise".

"Brain Damage" has no background laughter. The line "And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear" has a lead guitar that is not on the record.

"Us and Them"  is not only missing its distinctive echo but the sax solo by Dick Parry is slightly different.

Recording sessions for half day, Abbey Road Studios.

Mixing "Shine On you Crazy Diamond".

Syd Barrett showed at the studio and wandered around for a while. No one recognized him at first; He swas fat and had his head and eyebrows shaved. He remarked that the song sounded "rather old"; upon hearing yet another request to play the song back, he said "Why?, You've already heard it once...". This was the last time the group seems to recall running into him.

The group has tried to avoid contact with Syd since supposedly any mention of the band only deepened Syd's depression.
