POST: Ron WOOD with FACES 1975 – The Last US Tour Vol 05 – 13th October 1975 – BOSTON
Ron Wood
With
Faces
19th August 1975 – 1st November 1975
The Last US Tour
After Ronnie Lane left Faces in mid-1973 also Ronnie Wood slowly started to drift away from his beloved band by releasing two solo albums, appearing as a guest musician on a Rolling Stones album (uncredited on It's Only Rock'n Roll), doing sessions for their next one (Black And Blue) and most notably joining the Stones in spring 1975 for their big US tour which went until August 8, 1975. Just a few days later Ronnie was already rehearsing with the Faces again for what became their last US tour and their last regular tour ever. This last tour also had a first: Jesse Ed Davis (ex-Taj Mahal and renowned session guitarist) joined the band as a second guitar player. Officially because Rod wanted to recreate his Atlantic Crossing sound…
Thanks to the ones who shared their recordings, in particular to nzb, also for his advice and inspiration.

All the circulating versions came from the same recording, the one that can also be found on ‘Boston Tea Party 1975’ (Rockin Rott label).
I used the version coming from nzb because it was lossless (when all the others were lossy).
As usual the recording is declicked, channel equilibrated and the transition between the tracks reworked.
The synchronization with the official version of ‘The Stripper’ shows that the recordings had to be decelerated by -4,5%!
All the info was taken from ‘Woodworks 1957-1975’ The Ron Wood [pre-Stones years] Complete Works Database by Nico Zentgraf:
