At the time when Trikont Records decided to issue this LP in Germany, there weren't anymore master tapes left in USA. They were definitively lost for forever.
Even Floyd Westerman didn't own a vinyl copy anymore. So they had to look for a new vinyl LP copy on many Powwow-meetings.
Finally they succeded.......

Instrumental guitar-driven blues-rock with powerful brass section and a fat Hammond B3.
Paul Brannon, Mark Baldwin, Jim Bonney, guitars. Superb: Jim Hoke, harmonica.
Recorded at Oceans Way Studios and House Of Blues Studios, Nashville, Tennessee.
Superb US pressing on 180gr vinyl.
Very recommendable!
Good US pressing on 180gr vinyl.
Listen to track A5, Dylan's "All along the watchtower" played by The Jimi Hendrix Experience.
Pink Floyd - The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn
(1967, Columbia) 2016 reissue
Fosgate Signature Tube Phono Pre/Rega P9/Benz Wood/McIntosh MC 2205/JBL 4430
Indeed a nice pair of vinyl Lps: Piper and Saucerful together, reissued on famous Harvest Label in a new gatefold sleeve.
Artwork by Hipgnosis show pictures of proposed but previously unused album cover designs. Several pictures depict a well-known phrase or saying in form of a visual pun. In USA the nice pair of breasts of the naked woman were made invisible. (Cit: Wiki).
Remastered and restored songs slightly different to the originals.
Superb German pressing with fine remastered dynamics.
Interesting: anybody who finds the differences between the US/UK Originals and these remastered tracks or the reissues of 2016?
After the huge success of "Dark side of the moon", this 1973 reissue introduced new fans to the earlier psychedelic sound of the Syd Barrett period.
Concerning this double LP set: did you know that David Gilmour played solo guitar and contributed vocals on the American versions of "Astronomy domine", "Let there be more light" and "Corporal Clegg"? Do you hear the difference? Hey, anybody knows better?
Underrated.
Listen to "Sheep", when Gilmour starts his staccato riff, the song turns into a triumphal piece.
Waylon Jennings - Singer Of Sad Songs
(1973, RCA)
produced by Lee Hazlewood which probably explains the interesting arrangements and great sound quality.
Fosgate Signature Tube Phono Pre/Rega P9/Benz Wood/McIntosh MC 2205/JBL 4430
3 tracks are B sides of 45rpm singles.
Good german pressing.
Listen to "See Emily Play": a pop juwel! Sunny, spacey and perfectly fitting to the Summer of Love.
Listen to track B5 "High Hopes": we may hear the bells of Cambridge all over along the song. A sunday song.
Recorded live August 1988. Tim Renwick guitars.
Listen to track D2 "Comfortably numb": majestic song!
