The French 1974 tour featured the debut of Shine On (with the two halves played as one, as on the British 1974 tour) and Raving And Drooling (aka Sheep). Using In The Flesh as a guide, this show appears to be the fourth performance of the two songs. The Colmar show appears to have been the last performance of Careful With That Axe, Eugene, until the one-off performance on May 9, 1977. The French tour was the first time Floyd used their circular screen.

The producer of the disc mentioned to me that some of the lyrics and guitar parts of Shine On and Raving And Drooling different from the British 1974 performances. Overall, the British 1974 performances of these two songs are more similar to the 1975 performances than they are to the French 1974 ones.
