Rolling Stones/NY,USA 11.28.1969 Soundboard

This time, expectations are even higher for the sound board recording of the second day of MSG, which saw the light of day on “69RSTRAX”. Two stages were held there, but there was no audience recording for the first show, and the only glimpses were the official “GET YER YA-YA’S OUT” and the take used in the movie “GIMME SHELTER”. No, it’s a phantom stage so to speak. That is why the soundboard recording for “GET YER YA-YA’S OUT” (hereinafter referred to as “GYYYO”) was finally discovered by “69RSTRAX”, but unfortunately this time it was incompletely recorded. It is speculated that this is the result of the Stones’ second show and the previous day being the main recording, and this show located in between being used for preliminary recording. If the songs were intentionally cut when releasing “69RSTRAX”, the copyright of the songs would be lost. This also proves that the first show on the 28th was originally an incomplete recording. However, even in such a state, there is plenty to listen to. From the opening, it started with Mick’s famous line from the movie “GIMME SHELTER” called “welcome to the breakfast show.” It certainly makes me realize that it is the first show on the 28th. Furthermore, “Sympathy For The Devil” is a masterpiece that was adopted as “GYYYO”, but it is famous that Mick’s vocals were replaced there and it was a shortened version in which the “Kennedy” part was cut. However, the so-called Apple Acetate that contained the rough mix of the same album had the “Kennedy” part left in place of other parts being cut, and the masterpiece “GET YER YA” was ported from there and made into a pseudo-complete version. -YA’S OUT! COMPLETE EDITION”. And this time, you can finally hear the complete “Sympathy For The Devil” on Mick’s original vocals! Interestingly, the audio switches to stereo from “Stray Cat Blues”, but that’s not all. Only here Mick’s vocals have already been replaced for “GYYYO”. However, it’s still rough. The condition is different from the Apple Acetate rough mix, and here Mick’s vocals are more to the left. For the reason mentioned above, the recording was temporarily stopped, but it was very nice to be able to listen to the medley of “Under My Thumb / I’m Free” again on the stereo sound board when it was restarted. Attractive. Still, it has a completely different atmosphere from the previous day’s take that was included in the 40th anniversary edition of “GYYYO”. It is also attractive that the performance begins with a very rough atmosphere. After this, the version of “Satisfaction” from the 40th anniversary edition of “GYYYO” is included in “69RSTRAX”, so it is possible to speculate that the 40th anniversary edition work tape was reused for this release. . And regarding the last “Street Fighting Man”, the rough mix and Mick’s original vocals had already been discovered in the old masterpiece “A SHOT OF SALVATION”, but this time it is basically the same. However, the localization is reversed, with Keith on the right and Taylor on the left, so many people may find this balance favorable. On the other hand, although audience recordings were available for the second show, the sound quality was inferior to the previous day, and above all, there was great stress as the tape rotation became unstable from the middle. That’s why the joy of being able to listen to it on a complete and wonderful sound board, even though it’s all monaural, is immeasurable. The show started with Sam Cutler’s familiar line from “GYYYO”, “Everybody ready? for the next band”. The Stones are in great shape from the opening “Jumping Jack Flash”, and the sound board where the clearness of the performance has suddenly increased, the momentum is vividly transmitted. In “Sympathy For The Devil,” Keith is inspired by Taylor, who calmly shows off his transcendental skills on every stage, and he plays intense phrases that surpass Taylor. These heated scenes were not conveyed from the audience recording. On the contrary, “Love In Vain” captured the vividness of the surrounding noise in the audience recording, but it is still noisy even when it becomes a sound board. However, the same song was not recorded at the first show. Even if it wasn’t as bad as this, it was still noisy during the performance the previous day, so it can be seen that it was a wise decision to adopt the Baltimore take where the audience listened to the performance for the live album. Even “Under My Thumb” (no “I’m Free” from that day), which had started to go out of rotation, which was a big stress in the audience recording, can be heard with a sense of stability and clearness that is incomparable to that. . What’s more, I realized that Mick’s famous line from “GYYYO”, “Charlie’s good tonight, isn’t he?”, came before “Honky Tonk Women” in this episode (the scene was missing from the audience recording). There’s nothing more refreshing than something you can do. And in “GYYYO”, Mick sang passionately and Keith was harmonizing (lol). “Live With Me” can finally be heard with the original vocals that have the looseness that is unique to live performances. Above all, considering that the audience recording tape became muddy around this song and was no longer at a level where you could even listen to the music, it was truly a dream to be able to enjoy it with the outstanding clarity of this sound board. Not only was it the basis for such live albums and movies, but the three stages at MSG, which were outstanding performances on the 1969 American tour, can finally be heard on the soundboard. Even the incomplete first show on the 28th is satisfying to listen to, and the loss of “Little Queenie”, the only cut during the second show, was properly adjusted in the audience recording.
