Bill WYMAN and Charlie WATTS
Coming together
for A.R.M.S
(Action into Research for Multiple Sclerosis)
Benefit-concerts
(20th September – 9th December 1983)

This series presents the shows in which Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts teamed up in 1983 to support a string of charity concerts (2 in London and 9 in the US). Our original intention was to present the A.R.M.S. shows (see below) but since the players (and the songs played) were almost the same for the charity gala organized for the Prince Of Wales Trust on September 21 we decided to include it in this series.
In 1983, Ronnie Lane’s girlfriend Boo Oldfield contacted Glyn Johns with a view to organizing a concert to help fund Action for Research into Multiple Sclerosis. Johns was already arranging Clapton's Command Performance for Prince Charles so they decided to book the Royal Albert Hall for a further two nights and host a benefit concert. The first ARMS Charity Concerts (and initially planned to be the only) event took place at the Royal Albert Hall on September 20, 1983, with subsequent dates occurring in the United States, with slightly different lineups of musicians.
Thanks to those who recorded and shared their recordings, to BT2G for his suggestions and the available video versions he will add to complement this series and to nzb for his irreplaceable help.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………
ALL STAR BAND
28th November 1983
DALLAS Reunion Arena
Benefit-concert for A.R.M.S. (Action For Research Into Multiple Sclerosis).


Musicians: CW (dr)/BW (bass)/Eric Clapton (gtr, voc)/Jimmy Page (gtr)/Jeff Beck (gtr)/ Kenney Jones (dr)/Andy Fairweather Low (gtr, voc)/Chris Stainton (keyb, bvoc)/Ray Cooper (perc)/ Simon Phillips (dr)/Ronnie Lane (voc on Goodnight Irene)/Ian Stewart (p) -probably just one track per night)/Joe Cocker (voc)/Paul Rodgers (voc, gtr)/Fernando Saunders (bass)/ James Hooker (keyb) and Jan Hammer (keyb)

For this show we have 2 sources:
The first one is lossless and can be found on Mid Valley Records releases (MVR 2008) or on Heart Breaker (HB 947 1-2), the latter is the one you will find here, declicked and channel equilibrated (+20% to the left channel).
The second one is lossy and can be found on ‘ARMS Dallas 1983’ (no label). It’s running too fast. We decided not to keep this inferior source, but to merge it with the 1st source was interesting, so this will be posted as Vol 03b.

Vol 03b:

Although the 2nd source was often edited between the tracks, I think that the merges from 2 sources are interesting.
The first source is on the left channel and the second on the right.

As usual they are reworked. For the 1st source see above. The 2nd source is also declicked and speed corrected (decelerated by -1,68%).
