The Rolling Stones - El Mocambo 1977 CaptainAcidREMASTER

Hi Stones fanatics,

it has taken a while for this one to be finished.

El Mocambo gig is a sort of a holy grail for me, and i wanted to make it as perfect as i can, and so did Mr. D
First of all we all have to thank "Stewed & Keefed", for sharing this tape. The tape itself sounded much better than any previous version of this gig. Much closer to the master tape.

And just to go back in time and remember how important moment in The Stones history this was.
Keith was arrested for heroin possession, and have just been released from jail to play those gigs.
They have played 2 gigs (4th and 5th March 1977). After that, everybody had run away from Canada, leaving Keith alone with Ian Stewart.
And some 10 days later Keith would record those beautiful piano tracks in the studio (Stone Alone).

Let`s go back to the tape. The biggest problem was that it was too muddy or bass-y, if you want it.
The first thing that i have fixed was the phase issue (azimuth misalignment). Than i did pitch correction (it was a bit too slow) and level correction.
In the end i did the EQ. And i had to do a different EQ for the left channel, it was much more mud there,than on the right channel.
I have also manually De-clicked 3 tracks from acetate and remastered them.
( i have been doing it for days, literary hundreds of clicks )

"Let`s Spend The Night Together" was not complete on this tape, so i have completed it from the track from DAC`s Sexual Healing CD (remastered by me).

"Crazy Mama" was also cut on all versions, and i wanted to complete it somehow. But the problem was that "Crazy Mama" was only performed live at El Mocambo, until `97. So what can a poor boy do?..........except to use the version from Woodstock Rehearsals (again my remaster)! And so i did, i have made the Frankenstein !!!

In the end i have decided to include "Crazy Mama" completed in a separate folder. In the same folder you`ll find "Route 66" from this new tape, also remastered by me. You see i did not want to include any song twice, so i have used my remaster of acetate for "Route 66".
I know that i shall use "Crazy Mama" completed for my personal CD, it`s a much better listening experience, that way. But because of the purists, i am not gonna include it in the album version.
Another silly thing, that happen in "Crazy Mama" completed, is that after the cut it`s Ian McLagan on piano instead of Billy Preston! But it works, somehow.So if you want a completed song, just put it instead of a cut one in the album version (it is propperly tagged for that. And so is "Route 66"- new tape version).

"Mannish Boy" was taken from the first U.S. vinyl pressing of LYL (remastered by me)

I have taken the band introduction from Idol Mind version and remastered it and De-clicked it, a bit.

No one knows for sure what was the song order in concert. I have consulted Zentgraf site for a closest version of the track list and made the new track order.

I also wanna thank to some friends that have helped with their expertise : Munichhilton, Falo, Igemo75

And from now on, we have a permanent new member in the Acid Project Team.
Ladies and gentleman, his name is Erik Snow....yeah!!!...in the role of the expert consultant, or :"CONSIGLIERE"....yeah!!!......(imagine The Muppet Show introductions by Gonzo)

Artwork is another real beauty by Mr. D
For this one, we have the complete booklet and luxury cover !!!
Because, this is the 35th Anniversary Edition !!!

Enjoy

Cheers The Don for the upload and Captainacid for the remaster.....ex.....and Ex artwork too, definitely the best,,,,,,,Eddie

It makes you want the next Archive release to be El Mocambo even more.

Fantastic, great job.

1000 thanks.

Juergen

thanks very much!

such great release, sound and artwork. Thank You!!

again, not a release but a tape shared by stewedandkeefed who is a member of this board.

The Captain has an amazing hand with musical production and presentation plus Mr D is stunning in his artwork!! We are blessed that both are willing to spend their time doing this. I'm certain they are busy with other things.

This is completely outstanding because of those three people

If it's the next official release I will be glad, but in the same time I wouldn't be the guy who should do the Artwork , Mr D at the top of his game on this one

That's right!!
If the Stones get smart and release this (I would love to hear Luxury from ElMo) then they will never do anything as good as MrD does.

TeagueRaw has some outstanding art from the 60's, but MrD owns the 70's and 80s and 90s.

It's great job !
Our 70's collection gonna be strong !
…and it's by the work of Cap'tain Acid & Mr D !
Thanks for us !!

many thanks for this work

great great job... thank you so much

Many thanks for this one.

Another fine job; music and artwork!
As the archive releases never come with artwork, they should ask Mr D to do it officially :-)

Chris from Belgium

Well, thanks everyone for wonderful comments. Captain and I, we've spent a lot of time consulting on this one. For such a great remaster (and release) we agreed that a proper artwork should be done. As for me, i didn't sleep for two nights working on the sleeve (although i'm a little kid compared to Keef, for non-sleeping for several days/nights)

Thanks again, my Stones friends

Cheers, MrD

Thank you very much

Wow, what fabulous artwork, the best I've seen since Love You Live, parts of which it seems to have drawn for its inspiration. Well done.

But the audio quality. I know this is a revered performance, but it just doesn't seem there's any great quality audio of this so highly praised performance, even this latest CaptainAcid job. All praise for the effort, but when the barrel doesn't have a lot in it to start with ....

Personally, I await news of this one in the official bootleg series, presumably the last word on HQ audio for El Mocambo 77.

Oh, and a ...... DVD would be pretty good too, heh heh.

Thanks a lot for all your effort doing this one!
