T.Rex/MA,USA 1972

In 1972, T.REX was at the height of its heyday, with successive hits such as “ELECTRIC WARRIOR” and “THE SLIDER.” A live album that conveys the scene is now available. What is infused into this work is “September 12, 1972 Boston Performance”. The legendary taper: Joe Maloney’s finest audience recording. Speaking of “1972” and “Boston”, the excavation album “LIVE AT THE BOSTON GLIDERDROME 1972” released by the official fan club also comes to mind, but this work is a completely different performance. In order to explain the circumstances around that, let’s first look back at the schedule from the heyday, when the legendary first visit to Japan was realized. ・January 15th – February 1st: Europe #1 (4 performances) ← *“THE BOSTON GLIDERDROME 1972” ・February 15th – 27th: North America #1 (7 performances) ・March 18th: Wembley ( 2 performances)《“BOLAN BOOGIE” released in April》・June 3rd-24th: Europe #2 (7 performances)《“THE SLIDER” released on July 21st》・August 5th-13th: North America # 2 (3 performances) ・September 8th – October 19th: North America #3 (22 performances) ←★Here★ ・November 28th – December 4th: First visit to Japan (4 performances)《December 18th : Movie “BORN TO BOOGIE” released >> This is T.REX in 1972. Their best-of albums “BOLAN BOOGIE” and “THE SLIDER” became hits one after another, and they even released the movie “BORN TO BOOGIE.” It really conveys the great success, but even in 1972, the fan club album “LIVE AT THE BOSTON GLIDERDROME 1972”, which was a show at the beginning of the year, was released in the UK, not the US, even though it is called Boston. On the other hand, this work was the third concert of the US tour “North America #3”. Also, THE DOOBIE BROTHERS opened the day. Yes, it is also a sister work released on the same day and at the same venue as THE DOOBIE BROTHERS edition, which will be released simultaneously this week. This work recorded at such a show is truly a masterpiece. Speaking of Joe Maloney, he is a legendary taper who left many historical masterpieces in America in the 1970s, and his fame rivals that of Mike Millard and Dan Lumpinski. This work is the latest version of such a master Omoto master digitized by the prestigious “Krw_co”. In fact, the sound is extremely fresh, with no dubbing marks or tape deterioration, as fresh as if it was recorded yesterday. The extra-thick core reaches your hand without any sense of distance, and the details are clear down to the smallest detail. This is the type of music that would normally be described as “just like an FM broadcast,” and it is a masterpiece that makes Maroney’s reputation even brighter, rather than tarnishing it. A full show with such brilliant sound is reminiscent of the legendary first visit to Japan. As a matter of fact, there are many fan club excavation live albums in 1972, but let’s organize them here by comparing them with “LIVE AT THE BOSTON GLIDERDROME 1972″ that I have been referring to. Electric Warrior (3 songs), Jeepster/Cosmic Dancer/Bang A Gong (Get It On) The Slider (5 songs), Baby Strange/Telegram Sam (★)/Spaceball Ricochet/Buick Mackane (★)/Chariot Choogle ( ★）Single (1 song)・Hot Love *Note: Songs marked with “★” are not available on the fan club edition “LIVE AT THE BOSTON GLIDERDROME 1972”. …and it looks like this. To put it bluntly, the concentrated reduction of “ELECTRIC WARRIOR” and “THE SLIDER” was a breakthrough. The above comparison was made with “LIVE AT THE BOSTON GLIDERDROME 1972”, which may be mistaken for a misunderstanding, but in reality, their first visit to Japan was close at the same time, and they performed all the songs except “Cosmic Dancer” at the Nippon Budokan. . Of course, the mood on the scene is different from Japan, but the performance is very close. It is also a live album that makes you feel as if you are listening to Budokan live with Maroney sound. The first act of the US tour, which was about to land in Japan, was bathed in the wind of great success. This is a historical great album that was vacuum-packed by a master of the masters who put the full show in his hands. A piece that lets you be present at the legendary scene with the sound quality of an FM broadcast. The best audience recording of the heyday “September 12, 1972 Boston Performance”. Legendary taper: This is one of the famous products that was digitized by the prestigious “Krw_co” from Joe Maloney’s original cassette. The sound is extremely fresh, with no dubbing marks or tape deterioration, as fresh as if it was recorded yesterday. The extra-thick core reaches your hand without any sense of distance, and the details are clear down to the smallest detail. This is the type of work that would normally be described as “just like an FM broadcast,” and it is a masterpiece that far from tarnishes Maroney’s reputation, makes it even brighter. The show was reminiscent of their first visit to Japan, with all the songs except for “Cosmic Dancer” being the same as the legendary Nippon Budokan. This is truly a masterpiece of a historic live album. Live at Aquarius Theatre, Boston, MA, USA 12th September 1972 PERFECT SOUND (59:18) 1. Intro / Tune Up 2. Jeepster 3. Baby Strange 4.
