Haha I didn't use Audacity.
There are way better tools for the job.
I haven't done any investigating other than getting Audacity. What else is there that is as good or better or what you use? I've used it for editing, mainly, one particular edit was from a live recording for a Westwood One show where some curse words were reversed... so I edited them to be correct, which is hilarious, but I've also tweaked some things just for fun with it, made part of a song sound like an AM radio... boosted some bass to shake the house on some notes, etc.
He's probably using a digital mastering software. Unless he has set up a real mastering lab. I don't know.
At least he could answer. Otherwise it's just elitist craptalk to raise himself above "common people" like us.

I can't complain about anything on this album. We're actually quite lucky we even have one from the band and I'm going to love every second of it. It's all going to end soon and I don't take from granted that there is going to be a next one. As far as I'm concerned...it's great. I'm past the stage of being a critic of the band's efforts. It serves no purpose at this point. Just enjoy what it is...

Were supposed to say this is the best since Exile?

Everybody is supposed to say whatever he thinks. To compare it to Exile, or the Taylor years for that matter is a great joke to me, certainly as far as the quality of the guitar playing is involved.

The first two albums are better comparisons, as they are based on purer blues than that of Exile.
That said, I prefer Hoo Doo Blues to Shake Your Hips and I Gotta Go isn't very much poorer than Stop Breaking Down.

That's why I mentioned it as it the Taylor Years, cause Mick T really could play the blues, imo even better than Clapton. Of course it's perfectly understandable that hardcore Stones fans are in heaven after waiting for so long... I don't consider myself as a post-Taylor years fan. A pity he isn't on the album, and frankly that's the only reason why I chimed in on this thread. Anyway, please enjoy and continue the discussion.

This is a Rolling Stones forum, this is not a Mick Tailor forum.
Best Flying Dutchman, you accidentally called Kees. Or you yourself mentioned Kleermaker.
Dit is een Rolling stones forum, dit is geen Mick Tailor forum.
Beste vliegende hollander, heet jij toevallig Kees. Of noemde jij je zelf kleermaker.

Kleerie, do you know who Cornelis Wreeswijk is (or was, rather)? A Swedish national bard. One of the greatest since Bellman. He was called "Den flygande holländaren" (The Flying Dutchman).
I wonder if he's well known in Holland? Probably not...

+ Clapton's guitars on two tracks. Some say they hear an acoustic guitar on EKAMGT as well. I'm not sure..
How do you know Clapton was overdubbed? I thought he played live.Quote

EKAMGT? Commit a Crime, DP. I think I hear three electric guitars and one acoustic on Commit a Crime. But that's only me...
You can hear the residue of Ronnie's slide guitar on EKAMGT. That may indicate that Clapton added his slide guitar later. It would be odd with both of them blazing away with slide fills at the same time.

That's exactly what happened. They both played and basically pulled the weave.

Why is it a 2 LP release? Even with ten minutes more the material had easily fit on 1 LP. One side with 10 or 12 minutes is quite absurd.

Hairball
Mick's vocals sound a bit forced on I Can't Quit You Baby - maybe a bit over-enthusiastic because Clapton was in the room?
Not talking about production (which is fine), just the overall delivery. Sounds like they were all having a good time recording it though.

Average record,maybe they should have done one side of blues and the other side some new stuff,to me it gets boring fast.and in all honesty The Stones feeling the blues,l don't think so,but hey for those that love it great for ya...
