[voiceover ambience: Robert Wyatt — "For Carla, Marsha and Caroline" (from The End of An Ear, 1970]

Errata: I stated a couple of times that Syd Barrett's The Madcap Laughs was his second solo album, whereas it was actually his first. I also claimed that Wyatt's cornet playing with Gilmour's band was part of the 2001 Meltdown concert at the Royal Festival Hall, when in fact it was from a separate Gilmour concert in 2006 at the Royal Albert Hall. The 1990 Hatfield reunion concert was recorded for Central TV, not Grenada TV. And Camembert Electrique was released in 1971, not 1970.
