From Harvested Weeds (www.harvested.org): Introducing Interstellar Zappadrive!! HRV-CDR-031. The complete Pink Floyd
performance from October 25, 1969 at the Actuel Music Festival.
These (above tracks) are all from the new audience source recently uncovered. They have been speed corrected and carefully mastered
by the Harvested staff. These 8 tracks all fit nicely on a single 80 minute disc.
However, the shn disc now being seeded has 3 bonus tracks. These are the soundboard tracks from this show that were
broadcast on the radio. After some digging, we found the best source and put in our own handiwork.
The following comments were ripped from The Pink Floyd Database at http://pf-db.com/index.php?concert_id=905&bootleg_id=3467
Also speedcorrected and pitch corrected version of the original seed of the audience recording, slightly at diff speed than
Lets Be Frank... though. The shn disc comes with bonus material from the supposed radio broadcast (soundboard source), but is not
mentioned as a D2 on the artwork. -Furry_Animal

Notes that came with the ORIGINAL recording (from which all others have come from):
source: audience recording
Our Amougies series continues with probably the most anticipated performance of all - Pink Floyds. Of course,
the version of Interstellar Overdrive with Frank Zappa, long presumed lost, will now be familiar to most, but Im
sure this complete set will be of high interest to Floyd fans. As previously stated, the taper (JJB) didnt record
everything, but when he did, he generally recorded complete sets. There are exceptions though, and Freedom is one of
them - presumably after a few minutes the taper thought the band wasnt worth taping? Still, better than nothing!
Also, there are obvious issues with the sound quality. Firstly, the tape recorder used was way below modern
standards and the sound is nowhere near professional quality. Secondly, in order to save on batteries, the taper
occasionally turned the recorder off between songs, resulting in a few truncated introductions. These reservations aside,
however, this is simply an unbelievable document of a legendary festival, and so our hearfelt thanks to the taper
for recording this at the time, and for allowing me to seed it here.

Thirty eight years ago, Paris was slated tohave its first rock festival, the Festival Actuel.
The festival did occur, but due to bureaucratic nonsense it ended up in Belgium. It must have been one hell of a scene, though.
If you look at the list of bands below (click to embiggen) there are some amazing possibilities. I recognize the name Aynsley
Dunbar from his work with Zappa and Jefferson Starship, and likewise recognize Keith Tippet from his brief stint with King Crimson
in the 70s, but dont know if either of these bands was ever recorded. Better known bands included Yes, the Nice, and the Pretty
Things. Zappa was there first as Capt. Beefhearts road manager, and soon stepped up to being the MC for the festival. This presented
certain problems, however, since the audience spoke little English and Zappas command of French was tenuous at best. He abdicated
those duties and ended up playing as a guest with many of the bands instead. One of them was Pink Floyd.
(...)
...this delicious 20 minute jam from October 25 1969. On that night Zappa joined Pink Floyd onstage to improvise through an
uncustomarily long and experimental version of the already long and experimental Syd Barrett classic Interstellar Overdrive.
When I found this, I actually found two different versions of it. One was called Interstellar Zappadrive and the other was Lets Be
Frank. Being as it doesnt cost anything, I downloaded them both and gave them both a listen. Not only was IZ the better sounding
audience recording, it also came with a few alternate soundboard cuts. What I have here, though, is from the audience - no board of
the Zappa stuff. It sounds pretty damn good, though, and has become a favored listen here Under the Bridge. Those of us familiar
with Gilmour and Zappas styles will be able to pick them apart, and its amazing how easily Zappa fits in with and influences
whats going on with the song.
