30 Days of Floyd, Day 5 - January 27, 1967

January 27, 1967

UFO Club, London, England

Welcome to the month of Pink Floyd, where I’ll be celebrating the 30-day countdown until the release of the Early Years box set. Technically, it’s 31 days, but I’ll be celebrating the 31^st day differently… maybe. I’m bad at commitment.

The plan is to look at 30 random concerts from Pink Floyd history, even going past the content covered in the Early Years.

I’m on vacation, so I’m cheating today. It’s, as far as I know, the first concert bootlegers have of Floyd, which is from the Granada TV documentary “Scene Special”, recorded January 27, 1967 and broadcasted on March 7, 1967.

The concert in review a soundboard recording from the Fillmore on April 29, 1970. Thank you, Fillmore, for hosting the majority of my early 70s soundboard bootlegs. Well, it’s mostly Grateful Dead, but there’s others too.

The first concert is, actually, the best sounding audience recording available.

Looks can be deceiving.

Because none of these concerts were fully released.

One was fully released on film, one released minus encore.

The Monkees - Good Times (2016)

The Monkees

Good Times!

The Monkees’ Good Times! The first album of newly recorded material since 1996’s Justus. That’s right, The Monkees name is alive again for the fourth time (original run, Pool It!, Justus, Good Times!). And even Michael Nesmith joins us!

                Don’t forget that we’ve been getting a lot of unreleased material for the last 15 years, in Rhino’s deluxe edition releases (the last new album being the Summer 1967: The Complete U.S. Concert Recordings album in 2001, and the last re-issue being The Monkees in 2014). For some reason, no one asked for a Monkees resurgence, but here we are.
