I have just compared all tracks of this time's official bootleg "L.A. Friday" with well known audience recordings "The Lost Millard Masters"(VGP-340, Disc5&6) and found these playings are completely same exclude some cuts between songs.
So, all tracks are definitely from July 13th, unless the audience recordings long believed date was wrong.

So just a little theory. The 18th was also a Friday, and a '3' could be mistaken for a '8'. Someone, somewhere, misread it, thinking it was the 18th, and named it "LA Friday".
It was called L.A. Friday Night because the bootleg packaging was lifted from a Rolling Stone article of the same title. Jann Wenner went to the show on the 11th (BTW, my 15th birthday) and raved for a few pages about it. Imagine how gaga he'd have been if he went on Sunday.

At 0:31 into Honky Tonk there's a skip, and the intro seems to start over. Weird editing...

Cool. I have yet to see THIS QUESTION answered:
What is the source for this new "LA Friday"? Is it from here-to-fore unheard multi-tracks OR is it the well known audience tape?
IF it's the audience tape - what was ITS source?
Both Brussels and Hampton were well known multi-track soundboards while this one has always been an excellent audie.

You don't really think they would release an Audience recording this early into their experiment?
Check the sample earlier in this thread. Its a full production this one.

Well, I have the FLAC as well...
By the way, this version of Angie blows any previous version, including the '73 tour out of the water. Billy Preston does some true magic, and Wood is fantastic!

Well, no, really not. And to add: this version of Sympathy is best ever as well, better than anything with Taylor.

There isn't going to be any official release of an audience tape.

Well... sorry to piss on the thunder here, and I won't be saying nothing new either, but still: I think LA Friday is just ruined by Jagger's horrible and distasteful performance.

I am surprised that the Stones were THAT good a band in 75, and Ronnie and Bill owned the show to my ears, but I'm afraid only die-very-hard fans could even tolerate to listen to such voice for 2 hours.

I think the version of SFTD is OK, but not my favorite, certainly not better than Ya-Ya's... in my most humble opinion.
I prefer the raw sound of the earlier recording. This recording is sort of starting to lean toward what the song has become today, with the drums and piano being the centerpiece. This sounds very much like the "Vegas Era" Sympathy, only the 60's guitar part is still intact. So it's interesting, sort of a missing link in the evolution I had never heard, but I'd rather have the Ya-Ya's version.
well I agree with most of what you wrote about this LA FridayQuote

It's not even that his voice is shot - actually it's not, as can be heard from the occasional note that he forgot to growl. I can enjoy a purposeful, dedicated performance by a singer whose voice happens to be shot. But in 75, Jagger adopts this really annoying pose: "look at me, I'm so wasted", or worst: "I won't even care to sing for you because my aim is to have the ultimate ego-trip and to prove that you will kiss my as* even when I fart because I'm @#$%& Mick Jagger". The singer not the song? Lame lame lame...
Some will say he anticipated punk. Don't think so. Punk had a totally different context which made it cool - and then, who listens to recordings of live punk shows anyway?
Funny, I remember 15 years ago when I was a hard-as-they-come-die-hard-fan and I discovered the 75 shows - already then I thought, what's that?? And I HATED Billy Preston for his two songs, because they stretched my die-hard bad faith (who isn't in bad faith when a die-hard?) and almost forced me to confess that it was a relief to finally hear music and singing after 90 minutes of growling and messing about... Now thanks to this release I can find much to enjoy from the band besides the horrible singer: but I die easier today and I'm afraid that's not enough to sustain interest. For old time's sake, I bought this; out of curiosity, will listen to it thrice; and that will be enough for me - I'll go play some soul music instead. Hey, why not an old Preston 33?

You think it sounds like the vegas era Sympathy?! Honestly?
