The Rolling Stones' 1989 "STEEL WHEELS" tour, which was a comeback, inspired Mike Millard, who had been away from concert recording, and he recorded all of the performances at the LA Memorial Coliseum. Each time JEMS released those recordings, they were released on limited press CDs, but the only time the release of the Mirrored Master was delayed in this flow was on October 19th, the second day of the LA Memorial Coliseum. On this day, pro-shot footage that was played on the Coliseum's venue screen had been leaked for a long time, and the soundboard album that extracted the audio was also released by various labels and became a staple of the 1989 tour. The reason why the Mirrored Master of this day was delayed in the series of 1989 LA performance recordings was probably because it was the day when the soundboard existed. In fact, when one of the audience recordings of this day was unearthed, for the same reason, it ended up being released as a CD-R set with the first day, "LOS ANGELES COLISEUM 1989", and the existence of a video sound board was the decisive reason. However, even with the same audience, this time it is a world-class mirrored recording, and the class is different. I think that enthusiasts have guessed it before listening, but that video sound board captures the sense of realism that cannot be conveyed or captured with an exquisite balance. Unlike ordinary audience recordings, it is the usual mirrored quality that hardly picks up the surrounding voices, but still, the liveliness that conveys the enthusiasm of this day in real life is not comparable to the video sound board. If you have listened to the sound board on this day, you will know that the sound board sound via the video tends to be less realistic than a normal PA out sound board, and in fact, there were many enthusiasts who felt that it would be more enjoyable to listen to the video than to listen to the audio alone on this day. That's why the audience experience by the mirrored this time was so vivid. The performance of the Stones that reverberated in the Coliseum on that day was captured in real life, and the sound image where Mick's voice was captured nearby was overwhelming. Listening to the well-balanced audience recording in this way, Mick's best performance is more obvious than the video sound board. The Stones are originally a big city like LA, but Mick's engine was even more open on this day, as the next day was off. And speaking of this day, Eric Clapton was a surprise. Here too, the charm unique to Millard recording exploded, and when he appeared and started playing the guitar in "Little Red Rooster", the surroundings were filled with surprised and delighted voices saying "It's Eric!" What do you think, this is the realism and vividness that can only be conveyed from an audience recording. In the end, a friend who accompanied Millard said to him with joy, "Eric didn't appear yesterday, so I'm lucky!" As mentioned earlier, the PA sound board via the video tends to sacrifice even more realism, and rather than that bland direct feeling, the dynamism of the performance and the fun of the audience that comes through from this mirrored recording are really interesting. On the contrary, there are hardly any audience recordings on the same day that can be enjoyed so much by enthusiasts who are used to listening to conventional video sound boards. You can also see that the scene where Mick changes the microphone as soon as he starts singing "Mixed Emotions" was ringing out at a fairly loud volume in the venue, and it's really interesting to hear him play a big blur intro in Keith's corner, even when listening to the recording from the audience side. This is the best audience recording that could only be made by mirrored. The crisp dynamism of Mick that can be felt from there and the smiles of the audience who are surprised by Clapton's appearance. This is worthy of being called an audience document, and the outstanding quality unique to mirrored is outstanding this time as well. The audience album, which can be enjoyed with a sense of realism that is exciting to listen to on that sound board, is really fresh!
