           Appears to be best of live compilation. Have not correlated
           songs with other roios for venue ID.  -ANON

           Definitely for post-Floyd years fans, as 8 of 10 songs comes 
           from 80s and 90s. 

           ABITW, PIGS, WYWH, IF, FINAL CUT - songs played by Waters' band 
           in new arangement (definitely not a Floyd sound) on his solo 
           tour. Waters contributed only as a singer (and song-writer, 
           ofcourse). 

           TGGITS, MONEY, RUN LIKE HELL - played by "new" Pink Floyd on 
           their 1988 tour. Gilmour contributed as an excelent guitar 
           player, other instrumants was played by that musicians he hired 
           (their names see cover of the Delicate Sound of Thunder). 
           Wright and Mason contributed mostly as an "actors" on the 
           stage. All 3 songs are very very similar to them from the 
           Delicate Sound... (except the sound quality). 

           ATOM HEART MOTHER, SAUCERFUL OF SECRETS - played by real Pink 
           Floyd in 1970. The sound qauality is exceptionaly bad, but both 
           songs are worth to buy - although ATOM H.M. is recorded without 
           that great brass stuff. 
                          - OZZY 

           The quality of this RoIO ranges from good to excellent 
           depending on the song. "Another Brick In The Wall", "Pigs" 
           (short version), "Wish You Were Here", "If", and "The Final 
           Cut" (mislabeled - should be " ") were recorded during Roger's 
           1987 Radio KAOS tour and are of exceptional quality. "The Great 
           Gig In The Sky", "Money", and "Run Like Hell" were likely 
           recorded during the MLoR tour in 1987-88 and are of excellent 
           quality as well. Although the quality is not up to par, the 
           version of "Atom Heart Mother", a classic without the 
           orchestral arrangement, and "Saucerful of Secrets" are worthy 
           of any Floydian's collection. All in all a fairly good 
           collection of music, although not representative of the band s 
           classic early works, such as "Echoes" and "Astronomy Domine".
