1971 Paris Theatre for comparison

gotta be honest aside from bbc '70 "fat old sun" sounds the exact goddamn same to me every time
also complicating things is that the recording is crackly, generated, and at the wrong speed
i do agree with you that it's obviously not paris theatre, but only because the applause at the end sounds different
for what it's worth my favorite version of the song is the montreux soundboard from 1970-11-21

i like sunflo'er but i don't like "bring the boys back home", i mean i guess it's better than another dark side of the moon cover but seriously the songwriting on this one is pretty weak, it coasts on ezrin's production
this might be interesting tho

'Vera' / 'Bring the Boys Back Home' is the weakest part of The Wall, IMO. I mean, I get that they only exist to serve the "plot" of the record, and thankfully they're both quite short, but that section of the record stands out to me in the worst way. As for 'Stop', there's really no need for that to be a track in its own right and should have really been merely an intro to 'The Trial', but I guess more songs = more publishing.

I knew someone who was at that Who show at the Marquee (December ‘68). He said that when Moon went into the double-bass-drum rolls in the midsection of “Shakin’ All Over,” the whole audience suddenly took two steps back from the stage, then exchanged “what the fuck was THAT?!” glances. He said Moon’s bass drums felt like someone was stomping on his chest full-force. (And the drums weren’t miked.)

It's great! I like the last three songs the best. The title track carries on at a fair old clip with ace guitar from Clapton, swiftly followed by "Every Stranger's Eyes" which is one of the most beautiful and affecting songs Waters has ever written.

ok I'll give it some more shots. for whatever reason my interest drops off after the first few songs and always has. ditto Amused to Death which loads of people seem to think is one of the best things he ever made but I find dull as fuck. I liked the one last year though.

Was sending this to a friend so thought I'd share, it's a best of '77 tour boot that someone put together, quality is pretty great overall, some of those American gigs came out so well, even with the firecrackers.

interesting enough but tends to confirm my previously held beliefs: the '77 tapes really boil down to oakland may 9, the final show from quebec, and the second set from nyc. nice to hear the "doctor who" quote moved from "one of these days" to "sheep", though.
