Rolling Stones/AL,USA 1989 New Source

Contains the Rolling Stones’ 1989 Birmingham performance. There had been audience recordings for this day, but the sound quality was so rough that it was hard to believe it was made in 1989, there was some noise, and the final part was that the first half of “Miss You” was not recorded, so the recording condition was full of problems. As a result, it was quietly circulating among traders as a sound source that only serious sound source collectors owned (or did not want). However, soon after this month, a new sound source from 1989 Birmingham appeared on a major sound source site. In other words, a sound source that should be called “Recorder 2” has appeared, but in addition to the problem that this audience recording has a deep sound image and the sound is distorted in some places, “Mixed Emotions” is not recorded in its entirety, and as a bonus. Although there are some sound breaks in “Gimme Shelter”, it is still much easier to listen to than “Recorder 1”. That’s why it’s being released, but the sound quality has been thoroughly equalized. On the other hand, it cannot be denied that it is a rough recording that is difficult to listen to unless equalized. We have made thorough adjustments before releasing it. Originally, the sound tended to be distorted and the sound quality itself was sparse, but thanks to the equalization that was applied this time, a natural thickness of sound was created, and the ease of listening was clearly improved even though it was a rough recording. Although it is a unique sound source, the performance is so energetic that it makes you laugh when you listen to it. In particular, Mick, the fitness fiend, was in a really high mood and started firing on all cylinders from the opening. In fact, he was so excited that he almost misplaced the chorus on songs such as “Start Me Up.” When I listen to “Sad Sad Sad” now, it plays so fast that I wonder, “Was it played that fast?” The Rolling Stones were still young at this time. Also, surprisingly, it was on this day that “Angie”, which is now a common repertoire that is played, and to be honest, it is not strange to say that it is a bit worn out (bitter smile), made a comeback on stage. More valuable than that is “Dead Flowers”, which was barely being played even in October. Speaking of this song, it seems that there is a strong impression that it is a repertoire that was overwhelmingly played in the first half of the tour, including Toronto at the beginning of the tour, but in reality it was still alive as of October. Yet, like the upper voltage Stones of the day, this song is played really tight. I was able to hear the performance of the October version of “Dead Flowers” ​​at “SHEA STADIUM 1989 FINAL NIGHT”, which had been released in the past, but the speed was definitely better this time. I can’t help but think that the sound could be a little better. As you can imagine from the points I’ve mentioned so far, it’s probably an audience recording with a sound quality suitable for enthusiasts. Please try this equalization, which suddenly improves the ease of listening to rough sounds, and the Stones’ performance that runs through with surprising force!
