Comment: The title and artwork first released as a classic 2 LP in 1978. The venues sampled on the original LP were: St. Louis July 11, 1978, Buffalo, N.Y., July 4, 1978, Greensboro, N.C., June 26, 1978, Oakland, CA, July 26, 1978, and Chicago IL., July 8, 1978. A really nice "best of" effort. The printed color LP jacket was exceptional at the time. The white and yellow record labels were "Ruthless Rhymes, Ltd.". The most fantastic version of Beast of Burden was recorded on this LP, and it was from St. Louis and is now preserved on "pressed" CD. Note: The original vinyl release in each case is BETTER Quality than these audience source tapes! The Soldier Field show was first released on the CD "Speed Freaks" on the Black 'n Blue label. This is the first CD release for Buffalo and St. Louis shows. Nice way for the label to go out.
Who else will possibly relate to vinyl history like this great Stones only CD label??

"Accidents Will Happen"

(VGP-370)

Sound Quality: Sensational Studio Stereo !

CD 1: Claudine (Fast version as on the original LP, see my analysis of this song at: http://rollingstonesnet.com/Emotional.html) 3:40/We Had It All 2:54/Let's Go Steady 2:52/I Think I'm Going Mad 5:49/Indian Girl 6:43/Let Me Go I 3:53/Emotional Rescue 6:54/Send It To Me 6:16/Summer Romance 3:52

CD 2: Get Yourself Together 3:13 (3rd version vocal)/You Got The Silver 2:51 (Of course the Jagger vocal version)/Dear Doctor 3:31 (The very familiar Take 1)/Munich Hilton 10:41/Fiji Jim 4:03 (1st version; the count-in version. See my analysis of this song at: http://rollingstonesnet.com/SomeGirls.htm)/The Way She Held Me Tight 4:37/I Need You (Hey, finish this one. C'mon Mick the Stones need a definitive outtake retrospective. The legacy must not lie with "Metamorphosis") 3:39/Do You Think I Really Care 6:11 (See my analysis of this song at: http://rollingstonesnet.com/SomeGirls.htm)/A Different Kind 6:03

Comments: The cover artwork and title taken from one of the most significant outtake LP releases ever issued. The LP was released in 1981 by the Eva Records label, and is arguably one of the top three releases ever for this sort of material; ranking with the likes of "Bright Lights Big City" and "Lonely At The Top". I remember being totally "jazzed" to hear the infamous Claudine through the speakers of my own stereo system at the time. Also released previously on CD as "Accidents Will Happen (Claudine)" Dragonman 204-8508/8509, copied from the LP.

The Original CD release of this title in lessor quality than this recent VGP release.

"Second Incarnation"

Sound Quality: Fair Audience

Sports Arena, San Diego, California, November 10, 1969

Comments: San Diego show also released as: "Stoneaged" on World Productions Of Compact Music, "San Diego Sixty-Nine" on TMoQ CD, & "San Diego '69" by The Swingin' Pig - BEST RELEASE (TSP CD 214). Useful to have Philadelphia '69 on CD, but what is the point of releasing an inferior audience recording of San Diego '69 when so many good variations of the Trade Mark recording exist?
Help me out here, maybe I'm missing something...

The Original LP release of the title "2nd Incarnation" on Wizardo Records pictured above. Also San Diego November 10, 1969, but in Very Good to Excellent Quality! "Wizardo's" "Right Hand Man" was a very heavy Stones fan in the day. Of course this LP was a copy of the Trade Mark of Quality LP "San Diego '69" and uses the same pressing plates/matrix numbers as later TMoQ releases.

Comments: Also released as VGP-223 "Shattered In Stuttgart" except in lessor quality with a lot of clapping on the tape. Also released by the "private" CD-R label Coast2Coast as "German Girls" - STILL THE BEST RELEASE!

"German Girls"

And the best cover artwork too!

"Yokohama Forty Licks"

(VGP-345)

4 CD Set

Yokohama Arena, Japan, March 12, 2003

Sound Quality CD 1/2: Very Good Sounboard (Mick's Vocal Monitor - Vocals are up, all other instruments quite a bit lower in the mix) until 3:28 into Band Introductions (Track 12) then it switches to Excellent Audience for Keith's songs and thereafter.

CD 1: Intro 1:58/Street Fighting Man 4:11/It's Only Rock 'N Roll (But I Like It) 4:59/If You Can't Rock Me 4:31/Don't Stop 5:14/Monkey Man 4:27/You Got Me Rocking 3:46/Ruby Tuesday 4:09/Loving Cup 4:50/All Down The Line 4:36/Tumbling Dice 5:13
Band Introductions 4:13 - TAPE SOURCE CHANGE HERE at 3:28/Slipping Away 5:43/Happy 3:44

Sound Quality CD 3/4: Excellent Audience. Noticeable upgrade to VGP-330 "Front Row Box" Disc 3 & 4.

CD 3: Intro 1:43/Street Fighting Man 4:11/It's Only Rock 'N Roll (But I Like It) 4:58/If You Can't Rock Me 4:29/Don't Stop 5:17/Monkey Man 4:27/You Got Me Rocking 3:46/Ruby Tuesday 4:09/Loving Cup 4:49/All Down The Line 4:36/Tumbling Dice 5:13/Band Introductions 4:13/Slipping Away 5:43/Happy 3:43

Comments: Between "Front Row" Disc 3 & 4 and this release you can have more variations of the same show than you want or need. The back inlay advertises Mick's Monitor Mix for CD's 1 & 2, but this is not the case. It is only a partial Soundboard on Disc 1, which means you are getting very close to the same thing on Discs 2 & 4; variations of the same show audience recordings. They are not exact copies of one another though (checksums at 622.6 mB & 505.1 mB for each disc respectively). Note that song running times are nearly the same for both discs 2 & 4. It should have been a 3CD set with a bonus CD for the partial Monitor Mix segment.

Who's Gonna Notice The Difference Anyway?!

CAVEAT EMPTOR!

Buyer Beware!

This is some kinda Glyn Johns stunt...
