![]() I've never seen Pink Floyd in concert but I did have the good fortune to see Queen perform live in '86, also centre-stage and very close, though not quite front row. Wish You Were Here (the album) used to be my test tape. I discovered Pink Floyd quite late (around the late 80s / early 90s). I was working as an Audio Visual technician at the time (mainly designing and installing board room 'media wall' video projection systems, a bit like this). I needed something to test a newly installed sound system one day and happened to find an old copy of Wish You Were Here (on cassette) while rummaging through a box of cables. It was the first time I'd really listened to Pink Floyd but I loved the album and it soon became my test tape for every AV installation. The first track on the album, 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond', is a particularly good test track because it combines a gentle, quiet start that gradually builds, which was great for testing both the clarity and power of the sound systems.
