OU Comments: I chose to rip this source instead of "The Complete Amsterdam Rock Circus" NTSC DVD, not because the audio is of better quality but simply because The Complete Amsterdam Rock Circus DVD is a partial rip of the Mind Your Throats Please DVD.
There's a cut 10 seconds into A Saucerful Of Secrets, missing about 1 minute of the song.
The full concert, approx. 67 minutes, has an abbreviated set list and featured only 5 songs:
Atom Heart Mother
One Of These Days
Echoes
Careful With That Axe, Eugene
A Saucerful Of Secrets (Encore)

Roger comments at the end about the show running behind on schedule, reason why they needed to split.
There are 2 different audio recorders circulating of which I've only heard one. The audio quality of this source is vastly superior.
Notes (from Minehead's The Complete Amsterdam Rock Circus): This is a very unique piece of video that was filmed* on a high grade, hand-held camera in a very obscure and long out of date format.**
The group*** that discovered and restored this footage had the equipment refurbished just to save the footage. This is the longest piece of live film of the 70's Pink Floyd, and it truly has as ambience of a live concert that no other existing film does (the Whitehead films from '72 for example). It features the last ever live performance of Atom Heart Mother, in it's entirety, as well as full length versions of Careful With That Axe Eugene and A Saucerful Of Secrets.****
Extra notes:
* The footage was shot in black and white at Amsterdam by Jack Moore with his "Videoheads" group.
** Actually a U-matic tape. More info (with pictures) can be found here:

**** But see the comments above.

Dave,

the 3rd Megaupload-link is wrong. It's the 3rd part of "Yes 1975-07-23 Providence, RI flac16". The Rapidshare-links are OK. Thanks for the nice downloads.

I also got a yes fragment for mega part 3. I combined mega parts 1&2 with rapid part 3 and it worked just fine.

That would be a real thing.
But thanks.
