Rolling Stones/CA,USA 7.12.1975 Remastered

With the release of “L.A. FORUM 1975 3RD NIGHT : MIKE MILLARD MASTER TAPES” recorded by Mike Millard, the data of the 1975 US tour and the consecutive performances at the LA Forum was reviewed, and it was confirmed that the live footage was recorded on the 12th, not the 11th of July. The footage of the 12th had become an underground staple for many years, but it was released in 2014. The audio was also upgraded by replacing the mono sound of the video that had been circulating until then with a stereo sound source recorded separately on a multi-track, which was truly impressive. However, in the 2014 release, only the basic footage of the 12th was released, and the accompanying footage included the 13th, which had been released earlier as “L.A. FRIDAY”. That wasn’t bad, but considering that Fort Worth 78 and Hampton 81 were released as a set on the same day, I’m sure there were many enthusiasts who wanted the audio from the 12th, which they were able to enjoy in multi-track stereo, to be made into a live album. In fact, the 12th was also released as an audio record, but it was only included in the most luxurious box set when the video was released in 2014. The 13th was recently released separately in a paper jacket, but many people may not know that this was the only set that was released as an audio record. After all, it was 8 years ago. For enthusiasts, the 12th has long been popular on audio records, not to be outdone by the video. Although the audio from the old video was mono, it was a proper sound board, and therefore many items have been produced. There are probably many enthusiasts who have loved the silver box set for LP, the CD “ROCKIN’ AT THE FORUM”, and the VGP “L.A. CONNECTION”. The mono video sound had a bad sound balance, especially at the beginning of the live performance. Nevertheless, it has been appreciated as a sound board that recorded the entire 1975 stage. That’s why it’s natural to want to enjoy the stereo that has been reborn into another dimension on a sound board. Some enthusiasts may have enjoyed extracting the 2014 sound from the video themselves without buying the gorgeous set mentioned above. The stereo sound quality was so vivid that it was an undeniable finish that can be enjoyed as a live album of the 1975 tour. So this time, it was released based on the version that could only be heard on the forgotten gorgeous set of 2014. However, an unexpected pitfall was waiting. Because, as was pointed out at the time of the 2014 release, some compensation was added to the sound. The beginning of “Rip This Joint” was replaced with the take from July 10th, and the middle of “Jumping Jack Flash” was replaced with the take from the 11th for a considerable period of time. The problem is the compensation for the latter, and when it switches to the part of that day, the left and right of the stereo are reversed. It can’t be helped that the performance changes in the middle of the performance, but the discomfort of hearing Keith from the left is too great. If it is a release using multi-track, it is a regrettable mistake. So this time, the problem part was adjusted precisely. Now it can be enjoyed as the best stereo soundboard 1975 live album. The reason why it was necessary to make up for this with a take from another day. As the later “LOVE YOU LIVE” proves, the Stones at that time had no intention of releasing a full live album in 1975, and it is easy to imagine that there were parts that were not recorded at the time of changing the multi-track tape on the long 1975 stage. Furthermore, there was probably damage to the tape due to aging. And if you listen to the editing of “Jumping Jack Flash”, which is also “L.A. FORUM 1975 3RD NIGHT : MIKE MILLARD MASTER TAPES”, you can clearly see that it was borrowed from there. On the 12th, Mick put the microphone on the amp and moved on to the performance after the usual singing part, but on the 11th, he continued to hold the microphone and make strange noises. The video successfully concealed this by combining it with shots where Mick was not visible. Because of the long stage, the sound version recorded only on the gorgeous set had some parts between the songs pinched in order to fit on two discs. As a result, the performance of “Sympathy For The Devil” ended and Charlie was hitting the drum roll, and an uncool fade-out was applied, but this was restored by matching the sound of the video. It has evolved into a more complete live album. Even without the video that captured the wildness of that 1975, it is a wonderful persuasive live album that is different from the 13th. In fact, “Midnight Rambler” is also spectacular on this day, and you can enjoy the unrestrained performance unique to this year to your heart’s content, such as Keith’s “Happy” which is rougher than usual. For all the enthusiasts who were not satisfied with the video and were longing for a release in the same format as on the 13th, this is a great live album!
