REVIEW:

This release from 1960s Records is basically an enhanced copy of its vinyl counterpart, although there are few differences, apart from the front cover that is just similar.

It focusses on the Stones live 1964 broadcasts, presenting content that is identical to the vinyl with some interesting additions. It starts with the famous TAMI show that the Stones, as written in the accompanying booklet liner notes, just accepted to do in order to pay their airplane fare back home, according to Keith Richards autobiography. Two songs from the Mike Douglas show follow, recorded by the band on their first ever US Tour at their Cleveland stop.

Next come two different sessions for Joe Loss Pop Show from BBC Light, not included in the band’s official On Air release. The Rice Krispies ad is the only one surviving from the 2 different ones recorded, engineered by Gln Johns; two tracks from the Arthur Haynes show are next which come from the best tv footage circulating as per quality.

The following tracks have baffled Stones archivists for years, Roll Over Beethoven and Beautiful Delilah come from the band’s third UK Tour earlier that year and were supposed to have been broadcasted on Saturday Club on March 8th, but unfortunately no Stones site confirms such date for that show; it seems they come from other shows. These versions are however nice sounding with no much hiss as previously heard on many other bootlegs.

From the US second visit come the two songs from the Ed Sullivan show, followed by another well-known UK broadcast, the Big Beat 64 from Wembley, this time broadcasted by ABC. Next is the famous Hollywood Palace show where a drunk Dean Martin mocked the band, so much so that Jagger complained later to their manager Eric Easton; included here is also a rehearsal version of Not Fade Away. The famous Kurhaus concert in the Netherlands comes after, being easy to distinguish Beautiful Delilah but the other songs (Walking The Dog, High Heel Sneakers, and especially Susie Q. and Mona) are not easy to be identified, because Jagger's microphone cord was pulled by fans; this recording comes from radio Veronica that recorded the whole set, broadcasting it later and has been officially released as another grey market product last year, reviewed here as well. Track 32 is a mix of two live songs recorded on a Granada TV report (incomplete) which appear on disc for the very first time, proving this label keeps on searching for nuggets for Stones fans, the set closing with the other great discoveries offered on this cd: a live track that never surfaced before which is I’m Moving On that was broadcasted by Channel Islands television TMW on a program called Here Today that has appeared on YouTube recently; including Jagger-Jones short interviews at the end of the song, this here is a valuable historic find.

Sounds is quite good and well balanced, sounding as if coming from an official release by the band itself, instead that from a grey market (although legally legitimate) release.

Packaging is nice and tasty as per this label’s tradition, some sources are wrong though, including the one for I’m Moving On with liner notes written by Ruby Twosday, which is just another nickname the label’s producer has chosen this time.
