More information: In 1999, after a 12-year hiatus from touring and a seven-year absence from the music industry, Roger Waters embarked on the ‘In the Flesh’ tour, performing both solo and Pink Floyd material. The tour was a financial success in the US; though Waters had booked mostly smaller venues, tickets sold so well that many of the concerts were upgraded to larger ones. The jaunt eventually stretched across the world and spanned three years. A concert film was released on CD and DVD, In the Flesh - Live. During the tour, Waters played two new songs "Flickering Flame" and "Each Small Candle" as the final encore to many of the shows. In June 2002, he completed the tour with a performance in front of 70,000 people at the Glastonbury Festival, playing 15 Pink Floyd songs and five songs from his solo catalogue.
Prior to the tour re-commencing in July 1999, Roger and his band booked rehearsal time at Bray Studios in Windsor, where, on 22nd February 2002, they recorded their session, specifically so that fans could hear what they were up to.
The recording from this date was then passed to local college radio stations across the UK, who were asked to play segments across the following week - after which, and since when, these recordings have never been heard.
Bonus cuts on this new release come from Roger’s final date on the Flesh tour, recorded at Glastonbury Festival on 30th June 2002.
Note: Recording quality can vary on these kind of releases.
