1969 Dramatis/ation

615ED74x9KL. SS500

 The 1969 section of the mammoth 2016 rarities clearinghouse The Early Years 1965-1972.

Hughesy's assessment: While I've always been underwhelmed by the Floyd's soundtrack work, the 1969 radio session and the live set from Amsterdam both feature Outstanding renditions of the early Floyd standards. The Man and The Journey both have plenty of interest and the whole package is more than Worthwhile.
