Thanks to the original recorders and especially to nzb and Jaap (Stonesmuziekfan) who provided me their recordings, gave critic and advice regarding my work … so without whom this project wouldn’t have been possible !

CD1:
01 - Sky Liner
02 - Robbin’s Nest
03 - Lover Man
04 - Moonglow
05 - When You’re Smiling
06 - See You C.B.

CD2:
01 - unknown instrumental
02 - Lester Leaps In
03 - Stompin’ At The Savoy
04 - Midnight Sun
05 - Skylark (rebuilt)
06 - Stardust

Our versions were coming from the same source but only nzb’s version was lossless.
It’s a good recording except for the two first minutes where the sound is seriously damaged a dozen of times and because some passages are saturated: nothing can be done to upgrade it.
They were also big noises on the banter sequences on track 3 and 5 (the worst noises have been deleted).
I amplified the sound a little bit (+2db) and deleted a gap in Lover Man.
The unknown instrumental was cut in two parts at 3’30, they’re now reconnected but some seconds are lost. Same for “Stompin’ At The Savoy” (at 6’58).
“Skylark” was cut in 3 parts. The 2nd & 3rd parts had only the left channel so I kept the left channel (after reconnecting the three parts) and duplicated it. Now the sound is in mono here (same for the last track).

As usual all the infos are taken from The Complete Works Of The Rolling Stones database by Nico Zentgraf: [www.nzentgraf.de]

There were a few small typo errors on the covers of volume 4 and "See You C.B." was named "See You, See Me" as on some bootlegs .... here is a corrected version of the covers for those who want it
sorry!
