Rolling Stones/PA,USA 1972 2Days Pitch Adjust Expanded

Another analog reprint of the Rolling Stones 1972 American tour is “Filaspe.” There is no need to write the original title anymore. “Firaspe” is a masterpiece that deserves a super rating. A groundbreaking sound source that saw the light of day when a rough mix of a multi-track tape recorded with the intention of releasing a live album was leaked. It was later released as an item because it spread through radio, but as you can see from the fact that it was a rough mix, it has a different character from a so-called radio show, and after the sound source was leaked, it was not played on radio stations. It is also possible that it was. Therefore, even before the appearance of “Firaspe”, this sound source gradually saw the light of day with LPs such as “MICK TAYLOR WE MISS YOU” and “GREAT LOST LIVE ALBUM VOL.1”, but with “Firaspe”, the whole picture was revealed at once. It became. As mentioned earlier, the impact of the appearance of the multi-track sound source, which was captured in real stereo and received cheers perfectly, was huge, and when combined with that and the unique jacket design featuring stars, it became a huge bestseller. It is. The label that released this was a great existence that released a series of masterpieces in the mid-1980s, including releasing Knebworth’s masterpiece “HOT AUGUST NIGHT”. After all, it is a sound source that has great appeal as a genuine multi-track soundboard recording in stereo, and many items have been produced under the name “Firaspe” on CD. Even in the early 1990s, when TSP, the first of these, was released, it was already pointed out in research magazines that the sound quality had changed from LP. However, the CD version of “Firaspe” that has appeared since then has been more or less equalized, and if TSP’s sound quality is “mokoshari”, VGP’s sound quality is “sacer”, and both have a different texture from that of the LP. It was. And recently, DAC released a version of the second album of “TOURING PARTY VOL.5” that I would like to call “virtually firaspe”, but the sound quality of this one was on the best line. It is. Still, the sound is different from the LP…Although enthusiasts were happy to be able to enjoy “Firaspe” on CD, they must have continued to have a sense of discomfort that they could not shake. Therefore, this time it will be a reprint from the “Firaspe” LP master, but this is actually not the first time that a press CD based on the LP has been released. Already in 1993, LPs were converted to CDs in small boxes. It is said that the appearance of such items was in part a response to enthusiasts’ discomfort with the “mokoshari” sound quality of TSP records. However, this was a time when “analog-released” CDs were seen as a bad thing, and above all, items from such LPs were released in abundance, so they were not evaluated fairly. As enthusiasts know, the “Firaspe” LP was released on luxurious multi-colored vinyl, which caused the problem that it was more prone to scratch noise than regular black vinyl. Therefore, this time, we have created a CD based on the LP in mint condition, with scratch noise thoroughly removed. However, we were able to contain it on a press CD without compromising the warm sound quality of the LP. Originally, the sound quality of LPs was in a good way, with a rich analog feel, but when you add equalization to it, the quality inevitably changes. That was the dilemma of past CDs. Especially with TSP, the “fluffy feeling” of LPs, which are easy on the ears, has changed to “fluffy”. This also applies to ZEP’s “929” OG version, but there are sound boards that cannot reproduce the taste of LP digitally. “Philaspe” is definitely one of those types. In this way, the first disc was made into a CD by paying close attention to the rare masterpiece “Firaspe” LP. On the other hand, the second disc includes songs from the multi-track rough mix that were not included on the same LP, and reproduces all the live songs from that day. One of the main sources for additional songs such as “Bye Bye Johnny” was the “PLUG IN FLASH OUT” LP, which is also a masterpiece from the 1972 tour. After the release of “Firaspe”, this set was touted as the culmination of the time when it was released with further excavations. In short, it is also the LP sound source that fills the gap left by the LP sound source. This allows you to enjoy the live full-length version without any discomfort in the sound quality (that is, keeping the same naturalness). However, both “Firaspe” and “PLUG IN FLASH OUT” had a problem in that the pitch was basically high, and it fluctuated depending on the song, which caused great stress during playback. I myself remember that when I played the “PLUG IN FLASH OUT” LP back then, I would play that multiple record, adjusting the pitch on the turntable every time the song changed. However, in this CD version, these problems have been thoroughly adjusted. Not only is it now possible to easily playback the original sound quality of the “Firaspe” LP, but the problem of pitches that were basically out of whack even further varying from song to song has been completely resolved. And above all, “Firaspe”, which can be enjoyed with the original sound of LP, is exceptional. In particular, when it comes to quiet parts like the intro of “You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” it was not uncommon for past items to have a “sasser” noise, but this time, even in those harsh parts. wiping. The scene that begins with the sound of the multi-track tape being played was also cut from the CD, making it an opening that could only be heard on an LP. This is the original sound of “Filaspe” that enthusiasts wanted to hear! This is actually the first time I’ve recorded it directly from a record, without having to mess with the sound unnecessarily, and the pitch is correct. We aimed to reproduce the sound of the original sound itself. No noise at all. And the sound quality is great! (Regarding the pitch of the record sound source) Overall, it is 30 to 50% higher than a semitone, and after All Down The Line it is more than a semitone higher → All of the pitches were corrected accurately for each song.
