REVIEW:

This new release presents the Stones second show in Los Angeles on their 1969 US Tour and for the first time ever I believe a bootleg has been given the names of the actual tapers Dub Taylor and Ken Douglas who were the ones behind TMOQ and the latter the first guy actually to equalize a privately recorded tape (but shouldn t it have been Dub and Ken instead?). This concert had been released many times before; at first on vinyl in April 93 as L.A. 69 by OBR together with a 7 inch in 150 copies on blue vinyl, but without “Jumping Jack Flash” and with a cut on   Midnight Rambler, re-releasing it as Special Collector’s Series vol.18; then as a picture disc in November 93 called Welcome to L.A. (without the 7 inch) and later as number 34 of Works. On compact it came out complete in November 95 as part of Cocaine on a Dentist Chair (VGP 068), Born in a Crossfire Hurricane (Sonic Zoom SZ 1002) that had a clearer but distant recording, then in August 94 Street Hassle in L.A. (Stonehenge STO 001) was released in Europe, taken from a tape that came out in 92. Picaresque Sounds copied OBR release with Lost Satanic Tour 69 (PS 02) while also Sister Morphine released this show in December 2006 as One Late Night at the Forum (MORPH 054), in 2007 came out Let it Bleat (Palladium) and the concert was also part of the box In Concert 1969 (WLR 2160). DAC had released under the name L.A.69 (DAC 120) that included Sam Cutler introduction but later as Western Affair (DAC 124) which presented the 1st show as well: this release however presented a different source, both concert having been recorded but never used by TMOQ for their bootleg releases.

According to the cover it has been remastered  over 45 years later and is being marketed as   a Stones Milestone in the best possible quality. There is also more between songs dialogue, as when Jagger asks the volume to be increased of one tenth right before Prodigal Son, hence the duration of the recording which is over a minute longer than before.

This is a great recording with no distortion caused by Wyman s bass as it happened before and the performance power can be dug comprehensively. Packaging is really great with wonderful photos and a front cover that perfectly capture the essence of one of the first rock concerts ever.

 


The best toys are the ones that are both educational and multi-purposeful.
