The Narrow Way/Part 3 Band: Roger Waters* David Gilmour* Rick Wright* Nick Mason* Xref: Landscape, The Last Gadgets Of Oxyminus, The Man & The Journey, 8th RD From The Moon. Quality: VG Comments: Intersting record. It contains material which seldom appears on other roios. Some titles have nice improvisations before they really start. The record is processed with NoNoise, but that can't repair the bad source tape. Nevertheless it's the best roio from that early Floyd period (everything is relative). On 'The Narrow Way/Part3' you can hear a very miserable David Gilmour. He has difficulties in reaching the high notes, which makes the singing like that of an amateur. He must have had a bad day... "Amsterdam '69" is one of about 4 known performances of "The Man" and "The Journey." This roio contains all but the final three parts of the the show, as it does not include "The Pink Jungle (Pow R Toc H)," "Behold the Temple of Light," or "The End of the Beginning (Celestial Voices)."
