Rolling Stones/London,UK 1973 & more KBFH Broadcast

And another evergreen live album “EUROPEAN TOUR 1973 – KBFH BROADCAST 1974 & 1988”. Unlike 1969, this is a sound source that captures the peak of the 70’s Stones, who became famous because they were not officially released and instead were broadcast on the radio. Nowadays, the official “BRUSSELS AFFAIR” exists, but the recorded show is fundamentally different from that, and as a result, the value of the sound source has not faded. If nothing else, it was a legendary radio broadcast that started with “NASTY MUSIC” and became the basis for masterpieces such as “EUROPE 73″. If you are a maniac, it is a super standard sound source that you would have heard in those titles, and if “GET YER YA-YA’S OUT!” is a Stones official standard, this is a classic in the underground world. In addition to LPs, countless items continue to be released under the names of “NASTY MUSIC” and “EUROPE 73” under the names of “NASTY MUSIC” and “EUROPE 73”. I’m sure there are some enthusiasts out there. Since it is such a classic sound source, when “EUROPEAN TOUR 1973 – KBFH BROADCAST 1974 & 1988” appeared in 2017, it must have looked like “What’s different now?” to enthusiasts. However, this title surprised enthusiasts because it was recorded with a much more natural and straightforward sound quality than any of the 73 European recording items of the radio sound source “KBFH” that has been released in the past. This is especially evident in the 1974 broadcast, and I wonder if the “NASTY MUSIC” and “EUROPE 73” CD items released in the past were subjected to more or less unnatural equalization. It was recorded in such a natural and clear condition that I thought it was. As soon as it became known that the best version of the 1973 tour radio sound source was recorded, “EUROPEAN TOUR 1973 – KBFH BROADCAST 1974 & 1988” became a huge bestseller and was traded for a high price on the Internet. Naturally, after it sold out, there was an avalanche of requests for a reissue, and a second edition with a completely different jacket design from the first edition appeared three months later. But the jacket wasn’t the only difference. This was also noticeable in the 1974 version (after all, it was a cassette broadcast recording from the 1970s), and some of the small noises were removed and the originally flawless sound source was further refined. As a result of the two-disc set, which already had a rich content that coupled the 1974 and 1988 broadcasts, being promoted to an upper version, it also sold out quickly. The popularity of the 1973 European tour was truly enormous. Since then, there has been no end to the voices of enthusiasts who wish for a re-release, and the long-awaited third edition has finally been released. Regarding the noise that was seen here and there, there was a place to get it right when the second release was released, but this time it is the final blow to eliminate further omissions. In the 1974 version, the song interval at the beginning of the live performance was revised by borrowing from “BRUSSELS AFFAIR” as mentioned in a separate section. And in the 1988 version, the noise that was occasionally seen in “Brown Sugar” was eliminated. However, as pointed out by enthusiasts, the noise that comes in at 0:03 at the beginning of “Street Fighting Man” is from the PA, so it is not deleted. This is probably a type of crackling noise that is famous for songs such as The Who’s “LIVE AT LEEDS.” And there must be many enthusiasts who have been waiting for a reappearance like this one. No, even if you are not a maniac, this is a rare masterpiece that you really want to hear. The sound quality here is just as good as “GET YER YA-YA’S OUT! COMPLETE EDITION”, and it’s a superb sound source that you can enjoy with confidence at a level comparable to the official live album. Moreover, it is interesting to listen to the broadcasts from the two eras and compare them, as the mixes are completely different. The performance itself is a different take for each broadcast, but I think it will be easier to understand if you compare it by listening to “Gimme Shelter”. The 1974 version, which was mixed by Phil Ramone, has a well-behaved finish, but the 1988 version has a Stones-like roughness centered on the power of the two guitars. The hyper performance heard throughout is truly wonderful. The jumpsuit that Mick wore at this time was on display at the Stones exhibition currently being held, but Mick wearing it was active and shouted during the 1973 European tour. Among them, “Midnight Rambler” is a superb performance and has a long development, but it has a density that you can finish listening to in no time. Therefore, it has been shortened in the 1988 version, so please enjoy this song carefully in the 1974 version. The degree of perfection is too high, and the pinnacle of the Mick Taylor period live that started in 1969 is clearly engraved. At the time of release, the song order of the 1974 broadcast version was changed to match the actual live performance, or the songs that were not featured in the 1988 version were reused from the 74 version, and this was also recorded in a format that reproduced the actual live performance. was well received. The wildness of the 1988 broadcast version, including “Gimme Shelter,” which was famous for the questionable tuning of Keith’s rhythm guitar, may seem tame in balance, but it was an elegant broadcast that produced many masterpieces. 1974 edition. The 1973 European tour, both of which were recorded in the best condition, is the culmination of the best radio sound source.
