REVIEW: |
Due to the
lack of any official release for the 50th anniversary of the famous
concert, fans continuously put together compilations trying to offer the best
possible version of this famous concert; here is another release of the Altamont
gig that has appeared (just for now) on a famous Stones message board taking
advantage of the newly discovered Midnight Rambler soundboard version. In fact
listening to a recent Joel Selvin interview available on YouTube the whole
concert was recorded by the Grateful Dead sound engineer who let Selvin listen
to it, but only in his living room, refusing to part with a copy of it. So what
we have here is arguably the best sounding version of the show, let alone that
most of these soundboard tracks are in mono and mp3 sourced. Mainly what
was used here is Altamont Free Concert 1969 (IMP-N-030) where 3 audience tracks
have been replaced by these soundboard sources: The Sun Is Shining taken from
Some Satanic Tour Vol.2 (DAC 098), Love In Vain (a tiny cut-off [00:19-00:20]
was patched with Altamont Free Concert 1969 source and newly found Midnight
Rambler(two shot cut-offs [04:41-04:50] & [08:15-08:23] that were patched
with Altamont Free Concert 1969). Apart from these, Jagger s comments after
Live With Me come from soundboard source, while audience sounds after Gimme
Shelter come from audience recording.
The liner notes claim that this is probably the longest version of this show
with all the available soundboard recordings (so far) and that seems true
considering just the Altamont tracks (as far as length is concerned), here the
