POST: 1978.07.10 - St. Paul (BT2G version) - FP 180
THE ROLLING STONES
10th July 1978
St. PAUL
(FP 180: BT2G version)
10th June - 26th July: THE ROLLING STONES. North American Tour.
Line-up: MJ (voc, gtr, p)/KR (gtr, voc)/RW (gtr, pedal steel)/BW (bass)/CW (dr)/STU (p)/Ian McLagan (p, org, bvoc)
A while ago, a version of St. Paul appeared on TTD, and we wanted to know if it was more interesting than the previous ones.
I compared our different versions. One of the versions, also from TTD but with ‘Don’t Look Back’ at bonus track), turned out not to be from St. Paul (it is, for now, not identified).
The versions coming from APP and Pignose are from the same source as the 'new' version, as are the tracks released by Idol Mind, and the version that BT2G ripped from his cassettes too.
My conclusion is that only one source is circulating, and to my ears the one coming from BT2G is the best. I decided to present it here, reworked, with his agreement.
A big thanks to BT2G, to the original recorder and to my usual accomplices who shared their version with me and helped me with expertise and advice.
