It’s hard to believe they only recorded the Texas shows and I guess thePhiladelphia showsfrom the1972tour.That tour was the biggest entertainment event of that summer.

i guess we could hope that they at least recorded the rest like pittsburgh
by the way does anyone know if they kept the first generation tape of that show and the other shows they taped like that?
are they in there archive?

"Recording shows" and "professionally recording shows on multitrack" are two different things.
Back then, the former was usually nothing more than recording a show straight from the mixing desk on cassette or reel-to-reel tape for easy playback by band members afterwards in hotel rooms or at home after the tour. Talk is that recordings like this were done aplenty for band members, some got lost or stolen (Welcome To New York '72, Passaic '78, Winter Tour '73 and the Pittsburgh show you mentioned). If any of these cheap private mixing desk tapes were ever archived by the band or at least still exist in private collections of band members is unknown.
Professional multitracks are a different thing altogether. However, even here you won't find a confirmed complete list of anything that's in their archives anywhere.

Oh come on. You know if Bill ever had any they're catalogued in chronological order and digitally transferred for posterity.

thank you
did/does mick view these as disposable and not worth his attention or the cost of archival preservation do you think?
imperfect as these tapes are i personally would pay for a official release of any show from 1972 professional multitrack or not

Well, these cheap cassette or reel-to-reel soundboard dubs were never meant for commercial use, just for private listening. As such, I guess the band never cared too much about them. These may be holy grail items for us fans, but nothing more than quick jobs for the band - listen to those tapes once or twice aftershow at night in the hotel room or at home after the tour. I would not say that none of these were ever properly archived (cost would be next to nothing), but I think it's also fair to say that in many (most?) cases they were treated with little to no care - lost, ending up in dustbins, stolen, handed out to hanger-ons or drugdealers... there are numerous stories about how certain soundboards came into circulation!

London 2012 was a mess. Boring and lousy playing. Hope they will never release it!

I would really love for Miami 2019 to get an official release. There's a pro-shot boot available, so the content is there. If and when they do release another album, I think this would be a fitting inclusion for a Ward Super Deluxe release of it, with the CD/BluRay of Charlie's last show as a fitting homage to the man.

Well it's labelled as Pro on the website - I'm not a huge Boot person, so does that mean something else? For the price they're charging, I'm guessing the quality is pretty damn good.

Professionally recorded were Philly, Fort Worth, Houston, Pittsburgh and all New York shows.

I'd welcome any enlightment as to what I'm looking at, if I'm wrong. Like I said, boots are not my thing.

Is Professional Grade not basically the same thing? To me if it’s professional grade then it’s good enough to be official and the sound should be impeccable.

It might be true that all shows since Steel Wheels have been professionally recorded. There might have been brilliant shows since then, some of which were already released officially.
But there are so many raw diamonds from the 1960s throughout the 1980s in the vaults - these are the shows I'm really interested in watching. There is no official release from 1970, 1973, neither from 1976, or did I miss it?
Let's go for the good ol´times when Bill Wyman was still rolling ... Did any of you ever listen to Bill's bass plaxing on El Mocambo or Hamption 1981? THAT's the Rolling Stones ...

philly, fort worth, and houston sure
but aren't the others just recorded onto cassette right off the mixing desk?
or do you mean that in addition to those circulating recordings there are unreleased multi-track recordings of these shows?
