The Baton Rouge performance, which was the first day of the Rolling Stones' 1975 tour, was not only a forced march with two performances in one day, but also a maniac who had already heard the intense performance on the first day. It has been considered a legendary day. In particular, the first show is the first stage of the tour, so a large amount of rare repertoire is introduced. These elements have combined to make it a unique masterpiece in the history of the Stones' first tour. There are two types of audience recordings that conveyed such a legendary first show. "Recorder 1" was used in the real-time releases of Contra Band's "RECORDED LIVE AT BATON ROUGE LOUISIANA JUNE 1 1975" and TAKRL's "FIRST NIGHT STAND," and then "CAJUN QUEEN'S AFTERNOON," which appeared in the 1980s. “DELIGHT” discovered “recorder 2”. The former was monaural and had a typical vintage audience sound quality, but the latter was a pretty good audience. Therefore, Baton Rouge's first show was a performance where the sound source was discovered as an LP item. However, the problem was that the original tapes of both tapes were not distributed among traders. It is a surprising situation that the tape source of “Recorder 2”, which appeared in the 80s, is not available, although it would be fine if it was a vintage audience “Recorder 1”. This was recorded by the same person who recorded ZEP's Baton Rouge performance in the same year, and ZEP's was a rare example of his recording where the tape source was distributed among traders. On that point, the Stones released tape sources for only a few songs including "Dance Little Sister" in the early 2000s, but there has been no sound since then. The masterpiece of 2007, in which a maniac was frustrated by such a situation and realized a careful analog reproduction, was "CAJUN QUEEN'S AFTERNOON DELIGHT" with the same name. The biggest drawback of this analogue, the volume fluctuations between songs, has been precisely adjusted, the high pitch has been corrected, and even the order of the songs, which had been changed when distributing them to LPs, has been corrected. It was the definitive edition. Afterwards, the DAC label released songs such as ``SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW'' made with a similar concept, and in the early 1990s, the IMP label released the first glimpse of Baton Rouge's first stage with the nostalgic title ``BATON ROUGE 75.'' I think there were quite a few enthusiasts. All of these items released in the past are traced from the "CAJUN QUEEN'S~" LP, and as a result, the value of the original LP is maintained. This, coupled with the recent momentum for the restoration of analog music, has led to this LP reaching a price of nearly 20,000 yen at a recent online auction. The label with this title had a unique sense of not using a photo of the Stones on the front jacket, which backfired, and it was not well received in real life, but under these circumstances and with the passage of time, it was promoted to a masterpiece. It was. While enthusiasts had half given up wondering if this situation would continue to change, Baton Rouge tape sources suddenly appeared on the internet in recent years. Finally the phantom tape? Maniacs all over the world were excited, but when they opened the lid, the volume fluctuation between songs was the same as before, and on the contrary, there were more unnecessary cuts between songs than on LP, which was an unfortunate situation. It is still fresh in my memory that the sound source was also treated as a gift CD-R, but from that state I wonder if it was a copy of the master edited for the next LP? It is assumed that. However, this October, a new Baton Rouge tape source was discovered online. This time, it only appeared with the word "low generation", and of course it was a great sound quality among MCs, easily surpassing the sound quality of the version used for the gift CD-R as well as the "CAJUN QUEEN'S ~" LP. There are no volume or cut issues that arise. On the contrary, it is at a level that even the quality of LP reprint titles released in the past is dismissed. After all, the power of low generation can only be described as amazing, and the natural, warm, and spacious sound quality vividly makes you feel the true sound quality that could not be conveyed with past items. Originally, it was an audience recording that was attractive because of the sense of distance, rather than the sound image that was on, but that unique feeling became even better with the discovery of low generation. What is also noteworthy is that you can hear exactly the parts that were not heard on the LP or were cut, which is the power of tape source and low generation. The most notable thing is that “You Gotta Move”, which was faded out just before the ending on the LP, was completely recorded until the end of the performance this time. Immediately after that, there is a tape change cut, and I see that it was faded out to hide this on the LP. Regarding the fact that there are other parts that appear for the first time in various places, please see the separate section, but it was also revealed that Billy Preston's "Outa Space" was reused from the second show on the LP, so the song is included this time. (We respected the special low generation master this time). And it is typical of the 1975 tour that it flies sharply from the first stage of the tour. It is probably at this time that there is no “groping feeling” that is common on the first day of the usual Stones tour. Amidst the excitement of Mick and others, they took an aggressive stance by introducing a large amount of rare repertoire that was dropped from the setlist several times. The best example of this was “Dance Little Sister”, and the performance was sufficiently complete. Also, “Rocks Off”, which can be said to be a forgotten memento of the Mick Taylor era, was extremely short-lived as it was only performed this time, but this, coupled with Mick’s 75-year mode singing style, is attractive enough. Perhaps the past repertoire was the first to be discarded because there were too many songs? It is assumed that. The highlight was “Midnight Rambler,” which was played wildly as the live’s conclusion. At this point, it had a great impact that it was being played with a reprise arrangement for the finale. In this way, the entire live performance was not only a masterpiece that could only be seen on the first day of the tour, but also a tape source of an audience recording that had a great appeal for its unique ease of listening, and was discovered in the wonderful condition of "low generation". The quality is truly amazing, and I can't believe that in 2021, the day will finally come when "CAJUN QUEEN'S AFTERNOON DELIGHT" LP will be released! First performed on North American tour in 1975. The first Stones performance after joining Ronnie Wood (this day is Ron's birthday) (remastered memo) There is no doubt that this is the original sound tape of the analog boot "CAJUN QUEEN'S AFTERNOON DELIGHT". The best version of the tape source The left and right sides are reversed from the analog version, but this version is the same. The sound quality is quite different from the analog version. This version is better quality Disc1 The pitch from 1trk to 4trk is very random and out of order, so I fixed it as much as possible. Outa Space, which has already been released, is a take from Late Show, so it is deliberately not included in this edition Dunkirk Hall, Louisiana State University Assembly Center, Baton Rouge, LA, USA 1st June 1975 Early Show (UPGRADE) Disc 1 (59:24) 1.
