Pink Floyd Compilation CD Neonknights Lockdown 1968 1973 Soundboard

01 One Of These Days and Time (4'46") These tracks were sandwiched between non-bootleg-sourced excerpts from the soundtracks of various Adrian Maben arts documentaries from the mid-1970s. The documentaries were described as being recorded from German television, NDR3. My MiniDisc was recorded in March 2000 and I think I was probably responsible for the tape transfer. My source got his tape in an eBay purchase from a collector in the West Midlands who was active in the mid-1970s through to the mid-1980s. He no longer has his tape. 02 Moonhead (5'50") This came from a 1980s tape from the same eBay purchase. There are better copies of Moonhead out there but I enjoyed playing this version. 03 John Peel's 60th birthday party programme, part of Peel Night, recorded from BBC Radio 1 on 31 August 1999 (18'55") Just an excerpt from this programme, most of which I missed. My recording features Marc Bolan reading from Warlock of Love to Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun. It starts with John Peel reflecting on the Summer of Love, pirate radio, the birth of Top Gear and the late 1960s, and ends with some early 1970 content. There's a nice David Bowie reference at the very end. Peel comments, "It was the programmes that I did on Radio 1 that kept the bugger alive." 04 Sex, Drugs And Four Minutes Of Silence, BBC Radio 4, 19 April 2001 (27'51") This doesn't include any Pink Floyd but is a fascinating half hour documentary about various artists who probably had an influence on the band. I kept a cutting from The Guardian Guide for this one: "(11.30am, R4) finds Alyn Shipton returning to that period in the 1960s when there was nothing more avant-garde than the wold of classical music. John Cage had composed four minutes 33 seconds of silence, and a piece that required the performer to climb in to the vagina of a living whale. Then there was Cornelius Cardew, who formed the Scratch Orchestra in Britain in 1968 with Brian Eno and Michael Nyman, which went on to be a huge influence on rock bands including Frank Zappa, Soft Machine and The Beatles. Other pioneering oddballs, including Terry Riley (entire albums in the note C), La Monte Young (next to nothing happens) and Edgar Varèse (fiddles play second fiddle to tape recorders) are included.
