REVIEW: |
The
Birmingham 73 first show came out on a tape called Birmingham Odeon Revisited
that featured a remaster of the Oh Boy release that had already been released in
1994 as Birmingham Odeon (Oh Boy 1-9168) on compact disc and as Picture Disc
(Oh Boy PD 012) both marred by wrong pitch and as British Tour 1973 (Stone
Crazy 004) with a mini poster; in the same year Rainy Days in Birmingham (Stonehenge
002) was released, both good recordings but not coming from 1st
generation tapes or master recordings. In 2006 came out Birmingham Remastered
1973 (IMP-N-016) that was a great improvement both for speed and sound quality;
in 2007 came out An Afternoon in Munich (SODD 028) a stereo recording, then
came Birmingham 1973 (SOS 730919) and Birmingham Odeon (DAC 067) which unfortunately
was just a copy of that release, a good recording but hardly noticeable as
stereo with a thin sound and a low left channel from Happy to Star Star, while
from Dancing With Mr D onwards the situation changed and we got more depth. In
2010 we find this recording on the 13 cds box called Tour 1973 (WLR 2135) and
in 2011 we got A Destructive Element (GFR 661). With this release the problems
have been fixed and there is no more sound fluctuation, the sound being more
natural and speed corrected; this concert can be appreciated as one of the best
of the whole tour, with Mick Taylor in command of the solos and Jagger singing
at his best, so it is right to call this the definitive edition of this show.
Packaging is nice but too much like the Oh Boy version.
