The choice of including 'Careful.' is less obvious, since this is a 68 song. In contrary, I left the original titles for the live set. I took inspiration by the example of Sysyphus and Oenone and gave Greek mythological references to the whole album, hence Cronus instead of Eugene, Selene (goddess of the moon) for Moonhead, and a Grand Vizier's Garden party which became an authentic Roman orgie! I recommend you to read the liner notes while listening, for I tried to make it more or less conceptual with a storyline. Other sources had less hiss but much more microphone noise! I tried the best I could to erase this hum and de-hiss it a bit withoput denaturating the audio spectrum with Noise Reduction.Īnother thing I permitted myself is to rename some tracks in order to give it the mythological concept I conceived for the occasion. It's a pity even the audio rip of Grantchester Meadows from the Harvested's KQED DVD is only 19OKbps, hissy and had an annoying hum in the beginning. Therefore I used as far as possible the best sources for those alternate versions, but except for the Zabriskie Point outtakes, quality failed in most of the cases. I had plenty of material (of different quality) to choose from, for 1969 was probably their most prolific year. I don't pretend I improved it, but I wished to include left-outs, unreleased material (principally from ZP, but which fits perfectly in the spirit of Ummagumma) and alternate versions. Well, I took the liberty to get rid of that solo-concept, and tried to mix what Ummagumma might have been if it was a real teamwork, giving it a different concept. We were looking for new ways of constructing an album, although I think what this demonstrates is that our sum is always better than the parts." -Nick The live stuff sounds incredibly antiquated now. We're thinking of doing it again." -David I think it was badly recorded, the studio side could have been done better. "We all believed it was going to be one of the best things we'd ever put onto record, which I think it was at that time, but the stuff on the album isn't half as good as we can play." -Rick Quotes from the band members are clear on this subject: It's obvious that the original concept of Ummagumma didn't work out like the band wished it to. But then I thought: "Why not making it an extended alternate version?" Inspiration also came from Muabdib's studio remix of "The Man & The Journey" (which I recommand!) and the enhanced Wall version "Every Brick In The Wall".
My first thought was then to burn a copy of Ummagumma for myself, just including those songs at the end of the album. The idea for this project came in mind when I considered it was a pity that "The Embryo" and "Biding my Time" were recorded for Ummagumma but left out in spite of the concept of making it a 'four-men-solo album'. (So this could have been PF's first concept album!)
