In this series we concentrate on audience recordings, leaving out the rehearsals, and of course the official recordings. KBFH-recordings will only be used for merges or matrix recordings.

Thanks to the people who recorded and shared these shows and also to my accomplices nzb and BlueTurns2Grey who gave me the benefit of their advice and support. 

BlueTurns2Grey will be posting his video reworks simultaneously.

Line-up: MJ (voc, gtr, p)/KR (gtr, voc)/RW (gtr, pedal steel)/BW (bass)/CW (dr)/STU (p)/Ian McLagan (p, org, bvoc) 

Volume 03

12th June 1978

(ATLANTA)

12th June 1978 : Atlanta, Georgia, Fox Theatre
Note: The Stones were billed as The Cockroaches 

For the Atlanta show, I found two sources, unfortunately of poor quality.

Source #1 first appeared on Risk Disk's 'Let It Fox', later on 'Live In Atlanta '78' (no label). Additionally ‘The Cockroaches Show’ is a personal compilation I made from it a long time ago.

Source #2 can be found on ‘Miss You Boyz’ (no label) and in nzb’s version.,

I used the Risk Disk version which is better, although from ‘Shattered’ onwards the quality decrease. Note that some banters are edited.,

I upgraded the phase, added slightly more treble and amplified and de-clicked the recording., For the last four tracks I rebalanced the channels and upgraded the azimuth. 

The short video extract (cf. the bonus) revealed the need to accelerate the audio recording by +2,5 %.

01 - Let It Rock

02 - All Down The Line

03 - Honky Tonk Women

04 - Star Star

05 - Lies

06 - Miss You

07 - When The Whip Comes Down

08 - Beast Of Burden

09 - Just My Imagination

I deleted 4 defaults

10 - Respectable

11 - Far Away Eyes

I equilibrated the sound intensity and I deleted a 3 second repetition in the final banter

12 - Love In Vain

13 - Shattered

14 - Tumbling Dice

15 - Happy

16 - Brown Sugar

I deleted a digital fault at 2’

17 - Jumpin' Jack Flash

I deleted a digital fault at 4’12

Bonus : 

18 - Star Star (snippet) coming from a US TV report : ‘Action News’ (WSB Channel 2 Atlanta) 

it’s a merge between the video source (left channel) and the audio source (right channel) except for the first 8 and the last 20 seconds, which come solely from the audio.

As usual all the infos are coming from Nico Zentgraf's Rolling Stones Complete Works Database: http://www.nzentgraf.de/books/zent.htm
