Recordist's notes
Waves on the rocky shore. The bay is called Pink Floyd Bay by the locals. Some said it is because of the bizarre rock formations that resemble a picture on one of the bands Record sleeves, other rumours say that the band actually had some jam sessions on the beach. While probably none of this is true, the place still ist surely beautiful.Binaural recording. Artificial head microphone set up in the windshade of a rockstack about 5 Meters away from the waterline. Microphone facing east.Recorded with a Sound Devices 702 field recorder and a modified Crown - SASS setup incorporating two Sennheiser mkh 20 microphones.
