The final part of the stereo soundboard recording remaster series by "Prof. Stoned" capturing The Who's fall 1969 US tour is a compilation of the performances left on acetate. Again, the series of recordings in the fall of 1969 were discarded due to Pete's tantrum, and most of the precious recordings were erased from the world. They no longer exist. The reels that barely escaped the disaster were the releases up until now, but this time "Prof. Stoned" has brushed up the sound sources that were left on acetate even without the reels. "Eh, acetate? So it's inferior to reels?" Not at all! As always, the stereo soundboard is as crisp as ever. In fact, it's acetate? The quality is so superb that you'll doubt your ears. Although they were engraved on acetate, Pete never listened to them again for the reasons mentioned above, and it is assumed that the acetate was stored without being played much because he switched to the "LIVE AT LEEDS" project. The main source this time is the now nostalgic Jack Of Hearts album "LIVE AT LEEDS REJECTS". Although the album was actually full of valuable sound sources and upgrades, there was no detailed sound source data, and above all, the title that misled people into thinking it was a Leeds-related source backfired, so it did not receive a fair evaluation from enthusiasts when it was first released. In addition, it is true that the pitch was out of sync. In particular, the ambiguity of the credit notation and the title led to speculation, and enthusiasts speculated that it was recorded at the London Coliseum in 1969 and in Hull the day after Leeds. However, both performances were later officially released, and it was discovered that the guess was wrong. It has now been discovered that this was also recorded in the fall of 1969. Since no data was written on the acetate, the exact date and time remain unknown. However, the performance and sound quality are so good that such things don't matter. In particular, it is great that the pitch was accurately adjusted by "Prof. Stoned" this time. What comes across from this is The Who's performance, which explodes more than any previous release. If you listen to it, you can be sure that it was a performance from the fall of 1969. The reason why the performance was more amazing than ever before was engraved on the acetate is because the recordings were compiled with the intention of making an album. The work was done just before Leeds, but Pete's ambition to make an album from the 1969 recordings had already shifted to Leeds, where the live performance was about to be held, so it seems that he did not listen to it again. This is also one of the factors that shows the good condition of the acetate as a result. The performances provisionally selected for the live album in this way are truly amazing. "Young Man Blues" is an explosion that can be said to be the best of the 1969 version. Even more spectacular is "Shakin' All Over", where it does not flow into a blues cover like "Spoonful", but the improvisation exchange centered on Pete is intense. It is so amazing that it makes you think that they have already easily surpassed Leeds and Hull. "My Generation", which is included as a bonus, is also a spectacular version that lasts nearly 15 minutes, but it never tires the listener. And in the second half, we have put together acetate sound sources with slightly inferior sound quality. This is a remaster of the take from the Dynamite Studio album "WHO IS TOMMY?" that does not overlap with "LIVE AT LEEDS REJECTS". For example, "Young Man Blues" is the same take as the bonus on the previous release "STONY BROOK 1969 SOUNDBOARD", but this one is recorded in stereo instead of Pete's MC heard at the beginning. Although the sound quality is inferior, this part is also excellent enough on the stereo soundboard. This is a magnificent soundboard album with more fulfilling content than ever before, which makes you dream of a live album from the autumn 1969 tour that ended in a dream. On the contrary, it is an amazing piece where you can enjoy a high-tension performance that even surpasses Leeds in the best stereo!
