Rolling Stones/IL,USA 11.25.1981 Remastered

Not only the third day in East Rutherford, but also the third day in Rosemont will be re-released at the same time. If the three consecutive battles there can be likened to a slapstick trilogy, then the three days in Rosemont were three consecutive performances. As the previous two days had already proven, it was a very sharp performance that could be said to be the starting point of the final stage of the tour. That’s why, on the third day, the Stones’ performance finally reached a solid level… However, on the third day, not only the performance content but also the appearance of the sound source itself excited enthusiasts all over the world. That’s because Rosemont also unearthed the sound board of the PA out of the 1981 tour on the first and second days, which happened in the 2000s, but for some reason it was not excavated only on the third day. That would have been fine, but there was no audience recording on this day, and it had already become a “phantom day” in the latter half of the tour among enthusiasts. Ironically, it was the official releases that gave us a glimpse of that day. First, we were able to hear the performance of that day only on the live album “STILL LIFE” with “Start Me Up” and then on “Beast Of Burden”, which was released only as a coupling with the single cut “Going To A Go-Go” from there. What’s more, we had no idea that they had been tampered with when they were released. That’s why the surprise when the full-length version of the multi-track recording for the live album was released in 2013 was outstanding among the three days of Rosemont. In addition, since it was a recording of the third day’s performance at the same venue, the basic recording condition was very well balanced, and the same phenomenon as East Rutherford was reflected in the sound. The only flaw was the cut of “Let Me Go” due to the tape change, which was a specialty of the multi-track in 1981. Furthermore, the discovery of this sound source revealed how the official release mentioned earlier had been tampered with. First of all, Mick re-recorded the song for “Start Me Up” completely. On the day of the live performance, Mick’s singing style was typical of the 1981 tour, while in the re-recorded version, Mick’s singing style was more careful, and the difference was easy to understand. It’s true that Mick’s singing style continued to grow as the song progressed towards the end of the live performance, so he became more and more out of breath as the song progressed. This is also a scene unique to live performances, but it may have been the reason he wanted to re-record it. And the problem was “Beast Of Burden”. Mick’s singing was released as it was on the day of the live performance, but the performance was strangely finished with scissors being cut in various places. It’s true that the ending ended with Mick trying to sing a little more and the band not meshing, so it made sense to edit that part when releasing it. However, most of the other parts between the songs were edited shorter, as if the editing policy of “STILL LIFE”, which summarized the two-hour live performance on just one LP in line with the times at that time, was carried through to the B-side of the single. Not only did they reveal these new facts, but on the final day of Rosemont, where they delivered high-quality performances, the performance was even more amazing. Ronnie was in top form at the beginning of the live, and he was also brilliant on the third day of East Rutherford, which was released at the same time, but it was interesting to see that he used the Stratocaster arm more than usual from “When The Whip Comes Down” to “Black Limousine”. In the first place, the momentum of the band’s performance as a whole is outstanding, so the misunderstanding that occurred at the ending of the previous “Beast Of Burden” is insignificant, and the live proceeds with the same momentum, but after “Brown Sugar”, the engine is at full throttle. In particular, Charlie’s drums and Keith’s cutting are spectacular in “Jumping Jack Flash”, and each is promoted to a high-tension performance that fully demonstrates their characteristics. The wonderful sound quality of the multi-track further enhances it. The long-awaited release of the third day of Chicago, which astonished enthusiasts around the world in 2013 with a superb stereo sound board that even GRAF ZEPPELIN, who supervised this release, only had to adjust the volume balance between the left and right. And above all, the performance is superb! Phase correction * However, there is almost no difference, and the volume is slightly adjusted. The left channel was a bit loud, so the balance has been adjusted to make it sound natural. Live at Rosemont Horizon, Chicago, Illinois, USA 25th November 1981 STEREO SBD Disc 1 (71:21) 01.
