Pink Floyd Release 1974 French Summer Tour/British Winter Tour Recordings
It’s that time of year again! Since 2021, Pink Floyd have delighted fans by making previously unreleased bootleg recordings available on streaming platforms during the holiday period. In line with their annual tradition, the Floyd have unveiled thirteen live recordings from their 1974 French Summer Tour and British Winter Tour. The typical setlist features an early rendition of Shine On You Crazy Diamond, along with Raving and Drooling (later known as Sheep from the 1977 album Animals), You’ve Got To Be Crazy (which became Dogs from the same album), and a complete performance of The Dark Side Of The Moon, with Echoes as the encore, while One Of These Days was also performed as an encore earlier in the year. While the sound quality may differ across these recordings, they effectively highlight the band’s live performances during their peak years. You can listen here: Spotify | Apple Music
