You can has Pink Floyd?

[Spee]

So last week I started a thread about Pink Floyd over in bf.c OT to see if any of their members were into tracking down rarities like I am. Turns out, nobody had nearly the collection that I did but a lot of people wanted the stuff I had. I don't have any problems giving it away, but with a collection amounting to 1259 songs at almost 11 gigs, there was no real feasible way to transfer the data other than to have people ship me their hard drives or ipods and then I would ship them back.

Now, as somebody who doesn't post that often, it wasn't surprising that not many people were willing to do that. So a fellow member over there stepped in and offered his server space to host the data! All 11 gigs!

So is there anybody here who is interested in The Floyd as much as I am?

You can download an excel spreadsheet of my collection here: www.personal.psu.edu/svf5013/pinkfloyd.xls

If you want some of it, let me know and I'll PM you the server's address and the username/password. If anybody has anything they would like to contribute that is not listed in my library, PM me and we can add to this collection.

EDIT: Just a note: If you could, don't share the usernames and passwords with people you know. EricP at bimmerforums was nice enough to let us use his server and bandwidth, and I don't want this to blow up and have him go over his bandwidth limits. So if your friends are envious and want it, please just burn it for them or copy it to a hard drive. Thanks!

Sorry for the obnoxious bold text, but its important.

Glad its appreciated. But just a note: If you could, don't share the usernames and passwords with people you know. EricP at bimmerforums was nice enough to let us use his server and bandwidth, and I don't want this to blow up and have him go over his bandwidth limits. So if your friends are envious and want it, please just burn it for them or copy it to a hard drive. Thanks!

Want the other songs?

[Spee]

Want the other songs?

Of course! I'll send you a PM tomorrow about how to go about uploading that stuff as its somewhat complicated and I don't have the time right now to write it all out.

[Justin B]

PMed you, Spee.

[Spee]

Update: SchnellerVert's stuff is now uploaded as a .zip file called "SchnellerVert"

It contains two files, both trance remixes of "Cluster One" and "What Do You Want From Me"

Thanks!

Also, for those of you who want to know how this database is organized:

I have 3 folders of their commercially available stuff split into eras. There is "Early Years" which is a lot of Syd Barrett stuff and has more of a pop sound. "Golden Years" are just that. This folder contains Dark Side, Wish You Were Here, The Wall, etc. "Latter Years" contains anything released after The Wall, beginning with "The Final Cut" (which some might argue isn't Pink Floyd at all, but rather Water's first solo album).

There are four RoIO (Recording of Indeterminate/illegitimate origin) folders which contain mostly bootlegs of live shows. Most of these recordings aren't of the best quality, but they are essential fanatics like myself. There is also "A Tree Full of Secrets" Which is basically an 18 disc RoIO with a whole bunch of alternate versions of songs or never released stuff. Again, the sound quality on some of the tracks in that set can be very poor.

If anyone here has anything to add, let me know please!

I love, LOVE The Floyd. I saw Roger Waters when he played DSOTM in its entirety 3 times last year and once in 2006 when Nick Mason was on drums. My parents went to the actual DSOTM concerts in the 70's and The Wall tour. They said that it was the best concert ever along with Genesis. As a family, weve gone to a LOT of concerts and I am continuing the habit. Out of all the concerts Ive been too (and Ive been to a LOT!), Roger Waters was the best.
