A big 'AMEN' to that!!

I've just recently got into the wonderful world of bootlegs.

The live performances during the 1977 'In The Flesh' tour are awesome. Dave's guitar work is much more free-wheeling and inventive than on the studio albums (Animals & WYWH), and with Snowy White there playing with him, it's a Floyd/guitar-lover's dream-come-true. I especially love SOYCD part 8, where Snowy's Les Paul tones blend with Dave's Strat in one of the great jamms of PF history.

The vocals are rougher, cause Roger & Dave are obviously going hoarse from the grind of the tour, but it's also charming, 'cause a couple of times they screw up the lyrics and break out laughing together. It makes one feel that there was a time when the two of them actually got along well.
