IMAGINE IN IMAGINATION

Yesterday I got a bootleg of a very early Dark Side Of The Moon concert, before the album was completed, and in fact was in the early stages yet.. as can be seen with the song titles and the running order although not unheard of to play songs in  a different order than the album.. They were still writing the majority of the songs on that album.  Imagine though getting to see and hear the songs in their early stages as they were trying to work out the details.. Some was trying to see if they could play the songs live as some of the "new" technology advances were so new that they had never even been used outside the studio before.. Thinking back to the early seventies where computers were still gigantic, making them impossible  to have on stage.. So they would have to have several organs and keyboard instruments.. The reason why the early bootlegs lacked bass guitar was because Roger played second keyboard along side Richard and even David would have to play a little keyboard in the studio and as well live..   Listening to this concert it is like hearing the album long before it was released, they played a good lot of every album before they ever released them up until The Wall.. Imagine hearing those albums (DSOTM, WYWH, animals) before they were released.. How cool to see and hear the creative force..

When Billion Dollar Babies was reissued a few years ago it included a portion of what sounded like a bootleg concert.. This sounds like the show on that album except it seems to be more complete..

Started the new video project.. Actually I haven't started it. The project that was to be the DSoTM has been shelved mostly because I'm sure I wouldn't get it done the way I want it to be.. I always ten to get in a rush when trying to complete a project like this.  So I think I will let it stay on the flash drive and think about it a while.. Same with the 220 video idea although I mentioned it on the PNOP blog it seems to be in limbo as well.. I want some really cool graphics with this idea but just can't seem to find them..  Maybe a live video is what is needed there.. 

The pictures of the wedding as placed on Jordan's FB might be an added video to the wedding video but only for my copy, since the discs were burned already it seems like a bad idea to throw another video together and give everyone a second "but this is the ULTIMATE" version.. Maybe a second disc but I don't even think that either..  Just a video and put it somewhere.. Maybe youtube, or maybe   somewhere else.. I don't know..  Got an idea for it.. See what happens..
