The nine songs were all originally recorded while the Stones were making Tattoo You , but were recently completed and enhanced with additional vocals and guitar by the Stones.
The Tattoo You 40th-anniversary set will be released in several physical formats. The album will also be pressed in several vinyl formats, including a five-LP boxset that also comes with a hardback book featuring rare photos and interviews with producer Chris Kimsey and photographer Hubert Kretzschmar. Disc 1 — Tattoo You Remaster 1. The Rolling Stones Helmut Newton. Still, plans were afoot. With preparations proceeding for a massive tour of the United States at the end of and another the following year in Europe, a new album was urgently required.
With everyone on a much-needed break after the completion of Emotional Rescue, but with an album owed to the powers that be, the band hit on a novel approach to make it. Diligently, Kimsey set about his work. For three months he toiled, listening to every reel of tape he could lay his hands on that had rolled during a Stones session in the s. Louis and running into November with Charlie Watts sitting it out this time due to post-op recovery from unspecified surgery.
The standard CD edition contains the original 11 songs. As for who mastered from what source and to what format and from what the LP editions were cut and by whom and who pressed, apparently neither The Rolling Stones nor the labels care to share that information.
That's the best case real world scenario. Worst case is that it's horribly dynamically compressed so it matches the low standards set for most of the rest of the group's Rolling Stones Records catalog. I'm not being cynical. I'm being realistic. As with automobile commercials these days that don't tell you a thing about the car, like horsepower, engine, braking system etc. However, it should be said that the Goat's Head Soup set returned the album to 1 in the U.
Unless and until you hear the original Artisan Sound mastered vinyl edition cut while Mick and Keith sat there having rushed the tape over following overdubs and final mixing at Sunset Sound, you really haven't experienced Exile on Mainstreet 's full musical and sonic power. In a Rolling Stones interview for the Exile But as we all know, a tape can be baked and then played so lacquers can be cut to produce an all-analog facsimile of the original and there's no reason to not do that and to not dynamically compress the living shit out it especially since some compression was originally done.
As many of you know, the original was not well received by the rock press in , in part because there were not immediate hit singles though there surely were some great candidates and the press characterized the sound as "muddy and messy", which of course is simply not true! The problem was that the rock press at the time almost uniformly listened on crappy "record players".
An original pressing on a good rig sounds incredible. I'm hoping to get the full Tattoo You reissue production details and if I do, I'll fill you in. Submitted by Steve Edwards on Sun, it is one of my favorite Stones records; probably in my top 5. Though I don't have an original UK copy not sure which US version I do , and my system is not in the same orbit as Michael's, I would not label it sonically amazing. At least, not my copy. That's the first cut.
You have one of those, you'll know seconds after the needle hits the groove But that first cut Several of the recent Stones Reissues have been terrible sounding, with the decent sound volume compressed out of them. I'd wait on this one till you hear it, or MF tells us it's okay.
I think Whatever, sounds great. Allison Rapp Published: August 19, Rolling Stones Albums Ranked Ready to journey through the past darkly?
