REVIEW: |
These compact
discs focus on Keith Richards solo work which was done without any commercial
purpose on his days off from the Stones. Disc One has been sourced mostly from
vinyl (Tracks 1-8 from the ep The Toronto Sessions) while the rest come from A Stone
Alone (VGP 377); likewise Disc Two comes mostly from Keith Richards 81-83 and
the VGP title. Anyway this collection presents Keith at the piano from the Toronto sessions held the
week after the El Mocambo shows and this is the reason for its title. After
having worked on EQ-ing and reversing the phase some work had to be done on
pitch that has been slightly corrected; in fact this is the second remaster for
this title as
the previous one was
running a bit too fast. It is impressive to listen to the overall sound that
presents a coherent picture of the man in the studio playing for his pleasure,
chatting with a girlfriend and enjoying some gin. Nowhere any noise reduction
has been applied and no compression at all. The sound output is natural and
warm and the music can easily do the talking.
