| Notes: | JF was also an active local tape trader at the time and this release comes from one of the many trades he made in the early ’70s. It is an upgrade (to our ears) of the well-known recording of the Faces at Hollywood Bowl in the summer of 1972. The show circulates in at least two versions: one is a rip from a Midnight Dream bootleg CD; the second was posted on DIME by Lucifer Burns in 2010 as “unknown low gen” from the “Per-Erik collection.” The former is quite low-fi; the latter is better and sharper but has a lot of tape hiss. This new transfer, from JF’s vintage reel-to-reel, offers the clearest and fullest sounding version yet, with less native hiss (no noise reduction was used on the transfer). I suspect it is at least two generations closer to the master than the Lucifer Burns/Per-Erik source. And for a 1972 audience tape it is very listenable and sounds like it was recorded close to the PA. Ron Wood’s guitar really leaps out in spots and Rod Stewart’s stage patter is both charming and easy to understand. It also lacks a lot of the cuts found on many tapes of this era. Amazing on some level that at this point, when Rod introduces “Maggie May,” the audience doesn’t know it yet. Proper finishing on this one is courtesy of frogster, who continues to help keep the JEMS Archive flowing. Our heartfelt thanks goes to JF, who reached out on DIME (you could be next!) and offered us his archive, which had been sitting in boxes, 6000 miles away from where he lives today, for 20+ years. Like so many early tapers, he had great stories to tell and the memories flooded back as we sorted through tapes. We are pleased to be able to bring his work to all of you. Please let him know through your comments that you are, too. BK for JEMS | |||||
