Comments:

Sound quality is remarkably good on tracks 1-12, especially for recordings of that era. Tracks 1-5 also appear on official releases of the John Peel sessions. The first two Interstellar Overdrive tracks are short studio takes of the intro; the third is an extended 16:46 version; the fourth is a short 2:40 version. Rat Race, at over 11 minutes, is an excellent track. The sound quality on tracks 13-20 is not quite as good as the rest of the CD. This CD is highly recommended for any Syd freak or Floydologist.
