Rolling Stones/MN,USA 2005 Upgrade

The masterpiece from the Trial era, “ST. PAUL 2005,” which recorded the 2005 St. Paul performance, has been newly remastered and revived. The early days of the “A Bigger Bang” tour were when the Stones had just started in 2005, so there was a release rush just like the end of last year. However, the sound sources that captured that early tour were all of poor sound quality, and the releases were in a state of disarray. The “ST. PAUL 2005” that was released in the midst of this was already released in preparation for the 2006 Japan tour, so time had passed and it was unavoidable that it was released. However, from the beginning of its release, it was well received, with people saying that “the quality of this sound is in a class of its own even for the 2005 tour.” After all, the 2005 tour had many recordings with distant sounds, and the superb recording captured with a sound image that could be said to be the only one of them, and the bass that resonates heavily, make it clear that the sound quality is still excellent even when listening to it now. So, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Stones’ debut and their restart from last year, the release of this recording has finally been realized. Moreover, this day was the sixth performance since the start of the tour, so the highlight is the wonderful performance that has been upgraded from the poor performance immediately after the start of the tour. In particular, “Rocks Off” was a wonderful performance that is reminiscent of the 70s. Moreover, the sound quality is also excellent, so it is an excellent recording that allows you to feel the power of the stage and the power of this day, including this performance, in a realistic way. On the other hand, there were frequent problems on stage at this time, which seemed to be caused by a malfunction of the ear monitor, making Mick’s singing unstable, and as expected, there was a problem on the first half of “Sympathy For The Devil”. Mick was singing a different melody than usual, and it was clear that he was holding on just before he could miss it if he made a mistake. It’s still fresh in our memory that a similar problem occurred during the first day of the 50th anniversary tour in Newark last year, and even during the same song, but what kind of in-ear monitors can be plagued by such problems even after seven years? Such troubles are unique to the Stones, and we’ve finally decided to release a high-quality recording that allows you to enjoy both the performance free from tension at the beginning of the tour and such happenings in real life (the change in sound quality on the B stage is not much of a concern)!
