Here is yet another version of the Stones' first concert with Mick Taylor, recorded in London's Hyde Park on July 5, 1969, bootlegged many times over. This is an upgrade, using sources which are not widely available, and is the most complete version available. In order of appearance, it uses 1) audience recording from "Hyde Park July 1969" LP on Contraband Music label, 2) soundboard recording from 1979 FM broadcast by WLIR-FM, Long Island, NY, 3) Granada TV special, and 4) audience recording from "In the Park" on Scorpio/Gold Standard. Not used: previous releases by Swingin' Pig, VGP, or SODD, which are all inferior to source 2) which is used wherever possible.
CD1 uses source 1) as a starting point as it's almost complete. It is the worst recording by far but Mick's voice is very clear so it's fine for dialogue. The music and dialogue are replaced wherever possible by the other 3 sources. Source 1) ends with CD1 so CD2 is pieced together from the best of the others. Source 3) is used as the pitch/speed reference and the other sources are pitch corrected to match it. This runs slower than previous versions. I believe it is correct.
Many Stones fans don't like this concert because the performance is not the best and they are out of tune at times. I find it very interesting. They play some unique songs and there are flashes of brilliance, signs of what's to come on future tours. Plus, it's funny to hear Mick nervously introducing each song and even apologizing for the performance! Quite a change from his attitude in say "Gimme Shelter."
Some possibly interesting notes: The first track is correctly titled here. It is incorrectly titled in the video. Originally written and performed by Johnny Winter, this was the only time it was played by the Stones. I seem to recall it was a favorite of Brian's. Mick totally mangles the words. The video chops out the second verse; I have restored it from source 4). Mick's reference before "Loving Cup" about the next album coming out in 10 years is a joke about the delay for "Beggar's Banquet" due to the toilet cover, which now is the standard issue. Decca wouldn't release it then and forced the change to the "invitation" cover. Satisfaction was severely edited by Granada TV. The video actually starts with the second verse. The interviews at the end are from source 2). I believe the woman is Jo Bergman, Stones assistant(?), and an unknown Granada TV producer.
Presented in FLAC 1.1.4 and 1.2.0. Includes original artwork with rare photos from the concert not lifted from Swingin' Pig or the video.
