Well good luck! It's a great collection. Definitely has some lost gems.

RE: A Tree Full of Secrets
Treeful of Secrets is a tremendous waste of time and bandwidth.

The sound quality on Treeful is universally horrendous. You're better off looking for individual bootlegs. Use pf-roio.de as a guide. I suggest starting off with the BBC Sessions albums (especially 1970, 1971, 1974); they have the best sound quality. I'd give you some direct links, but I'm not sure that's allowed here...

RE: A Tree Full of Secrets
Well half of Tree is garbage and unlistenable. However, the soundtrack to Carrerra Panamericana and the b-sides hero's return and pigs on the wing are a plus. Also you get the rare cassette version of Soundscape from Pulse and other odds and ends. I prefer the version of "One of These Days" from the rare High Hopes single rather than the one from Pulse but that's just me.

Anyway, regardless of it being a complete waste, it's a great introduction to all the unreleased Floyd stuff that's out there. Not the best since the BBC Sessions (including the wonderful '71 sessions and the '74 recording of DSOTM live with Echoes) are far superior, Tree does contain a lot of rare and hidden gems.

I'd just like to thank you guys for all the info. I've not had a chance to try downloading it yet as I have insuficient data credit at the moment (I'm pulling in the purse strings) I hope that if I have any problems you guys might be able to help me out some more. Thanks again Thumbsup
