Pink Floyd - Full Concert at Actuel Festival, Belgium featuring Green is the Colour, Careful With That Axe Eugene, Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun, and Interstellar Overdrive

Venue: Champ appartenant à un fermier Location: Amougies, Hainaut, Belgium Date: October 25, 1969

On October 25, 1969, Pink Floyd performed at the Actuel Festival in Amougies, Belgium, a pivotal moment in their early career. At this time, they had recently released their album "More," which was the soundtrack to Barbet Schroeder's film of the same name. The album showcased the band's transition to a more lyrical and structured sound, moving beyond their earlier psychedelic beginnings. During the festival, Pink Floyd played several tracks, including "Green Is the Colour" and "Careful with That Axe, Eugene," which highlighted their experimental style and atmospheric compositions. Notably, this period marked a significant evolution in their live performances, as they began to incorporate more elaborate visual elements and extended improvisational sections, foreshadowing the grander productions that would characterize their later works. The 1969 concert reflects both their ambitious artistic vision and their growing reputation in the progressive rock scene.
