Bob Dylan - The original 'basement tapes', which were, for a long time, a series of 3 LP's. These 3 albums were from a series of concerts in Los Angeles, and for my tastes, still the best concert I have ever heard in my life, when it comes to energy, and non stop insanity! It's like they could go on and on and on, and just rip your heart in pieces! Absolutely fabulous, although the story is that Bonzo did not play drums for almost half of the Birthday Party show, if that is the same one. Led Zeppelin - Bonzo's Birthday Party/Live on Blueberry Hill/ and one more whose name I forget. While I still like WYWH, it is not as good as the 'original', which was much more interesting and a lot less 'radio' oriented. 'WYWH' was created, with the 2 nasty pieces against the record company (Welcome to the Machine and Have a Cigar), and the rest almost a copy of the previous album. But I think that the record company wanted something closer to DSOTM, and the new material was way out there away from it. They already had the next album with the pieces they were already playing. Here is where my theory came up about the 'next' PF album. When DSOTM came out, this was removed and what they did was 'better' and more enjoyable, no doubt about that at ALL! However, AFTER, the album came out, the new bootlegs had some new material that was not there before, and they were 'Raving and Drooling' and 'Gotta be Crazy', and one other piece that was not clear what its title was. people have stood, and cheered, something they did not understand!' This is important, only for one reason.

In those albums, the 'greatest gig in the sky' was Syd Barrett as a priest doing what sounded like various sermons, with some of his very famous lines all over it.

Pink Floyd - There are three bootlegs that came out BEFORE the release of DSOTM, that had them playing the full DSOTM before the album.

The Beatles - Live in Hamburg - It's not great, but it tells you how much this band improved and you can hear things that showed up way later! It also makes 'Let It Be' almost a left over album with the stuff they had left behind! Pink Floyd - There are 2 albums that are around the Atom Heart Mother era, that came out on a label called 'Wizardo'. The Beatles - Christmas Shows (7 of them!) - Fabulous quality and recorded directly off the BBC air. Moshkiae Hi, Bootlegs? Some that I have heard over the years, although this was way before I cam up to the Pacific Northwest where the majority of these is now difficult to find, specially since that one neat record store closed about 10 years ago on Stark.
