Quoting
anonymous:
Pink Floyd
May 9th 1977
Alameda Coliseum
Oakland CA, USA
Also Known As: Oakland Coliseum / In the Flesh / Plays the Animals / Animal Instincts / Mr. Pig
Source: --> Animal Instincts rev. B <-- (HRV CDR 014)
Audience: Rating is 8/10, Recorded from the audience by Reinhardt Hollwein
Notes (from many sources):
This
two CD set features a complete show from the 1977 Animals tour (aka 'In
The Flesh' tour). It's notable for it's very good performance and the
rare encore of 'Careful With That Axe, Eugene' --a song that hadn't
been played for a few years at that time, and has never ever been played
since then.
It's
an audience recording, but of such good quality that this show has been
bootlegged many times under many different titles: 'Oakland Coliseum,'
'Animal Instincts,' 'Plays the Animals,' ‘Mr. Pig,’ and 'In The Flesh'
are among the most popular and common boots. I’m including artwork for
each of these so you can use what you like – it’s all from the same
show. My original CD copy was “Plays the Animals,” but last year I was
given “Animal Instincts rev B,” and its sound is definitely superior
(thanks to harvested.org), which is the source for this particular posting.
A great recording of a great concert.
The band seems to be having a lot of fun (something I assume was rare
during the In The Flesh Tour). Roger and Dave laugh hysterically during
the first verse of "Have a Cigar." Roger Waters shows some real venom
in 'Pigs,' and 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond parts VI-IX' features some
outstanding jamming which cannot be heard on the original studio
recording. The overall set list is a winner too, including "Eugene" as
the final encore. David Gilmour does seem to get a little annoyed at
the crowd before "Us and Them" - he tells the crowd "This one's got a
quiet beginning." “Pigs” is much more powerful (and heavier) than the
studio cut, with lots of extended jamming added as well. There is a cut
in “Shine On,” probably due to a tape flip. There are a couple of loud
BOOMS during WYWH, like the microphone was dropped, so be aware of
that. Otherwise, a great, full Animals and Wish You Were Here set, with
Dark Side of The Moon encores.
