About this deal

Apparently, there was a fake of EU box too. But at the moment I cannot find confirmation with graphical evidences. By the time we arrive at the US 1965 release Out of Our Heads the Jagger/Richards songwriting team is hitting its stride with “Satisfaction” and “Play with Fire”. Followed immediately by one of the pair’s pure blues specials “The Spider and the Fly” ( She was common, flirty, she looked about 30). Note different width of the inner mirror band. Different fonts for matrix number, different width of barcode. theme_alert": "Venta únicamente en méxico.

Since the recordings are identical, you’d think the two box sets would be equal. This is where cutting, pressing and vinyl quality affect LPs. For both USA and EU versions of CDs SID mould ifpi code is printed close to the edge of the central hole and is barely visible. You're statement about "computer speakers" certainly lumps a lot into that undiscriminating statement. Certainly many computer speakers are relative crap, but the Monsoon model I have is, in the words of Larry David's character on Curb Your Enthusiasm, "pretty, pretty good". In the case of this box there was one addition step of course, digitization using a particular DSD A/D converter. By the second record, they were recording and paying homage at Chess, Chicago and at RCA in Hollywood. On December’s Children (and everybody’s) engineering credits go to Dave Hassinger (Hollywood), Ron Malo (Chicago) and Glyn Johns (London). Starting with Between the Buttons, the group settled in at Olympic for the rest of their time with Decca Records.

Unlike The Beatles’ relationship with EMI, UK Decca Records did not “own” The Rolling Stones. Instead, Andrew Loog Oldham, having learned the independent game from his mentor Phil Spector, licensed to Decca the Rolling Stones’ recordings, while maintaining control over the content, the production and probably the cover artwork as well (though I don’t claim to know the precise relationship between Decca UK and it’s London American subsidiary). Although, SHM-CD logo is printed on the hub, the catalog number, SID mastering code and Universal logo are present in the inner mirror band of the CD the fonts that are used are different from official. Also, the CD shape is different from those that are pressed in Japan. Poison Ivy had two different versions,” said Landi. “One was on a Saturday Club compilation and another that ended up on the EP.”

To hear how some of it can sound, the 12" 45 rpm single reissue last year of "Satisfaction" with "Under Assistant promo guy" and "Spider and the Fly" shows that this stuff can sound pretty good, though you can't get away from the fact that Satisfaction just is not a good recording. That chopped off "RCA sound"... Sinclair, Paul (11 August 2016). " The Rolling Stones in Mono: 16 LP Vinyl and 15 CD Box Sets Due in September". Super Deluxe Edition . Retrieved 18 December 2016.

In fact, I'd say that as harsh, bass-free, compressed, and nerve-shreddingly nasty as those old originals are, they're not nearly painfully distorted enough. The production chain here started with Restoration Producer Teri Landi, who supervised the sound restoration by The Magic Shop’s (RIP) Steve Rosenthal and Ted Young. You can be sure that these old tapes probably had some issues in need of correction. Fortunately, after listening through the entire set, it doesn’t sound to me as if “sound revision” was on their menu. The task, then, was to source the first generation tapes for this project,” said Landi. “The first generation recording may (or may not) be on the cutting master, it might be further up the chain on a complex album master or elsewhere. To complicate matters, because you are also looking at UK and USA versions of the same album, then one of them may have the first generation masters while the other will certainly not. For Out of Our Heads, for example, the first generation masters were largely present on the US version: the US version did appear before the UK version. Hence, the UK master had lower generation copies on its LP.” Given the cut and paste nature of many of these records, particularly the earlier American releases, attempting to cut lacquers from the original assembled cutting masters (assuming that they still existed) would be as bad an idea as cutting The Beatles Capitol catalog from those later generation “modified” tapes.

DSD has come a long way in terms of tools, said Landi. “Bob [Ludwig] uses the Pyramix system that accommodates DSD and PCM. That has sophisticated editing tools in there. This is true DSD, incidentally, there is no inter-PCM conversion involved here.” Yes, the sound is wildly inconsistent. It's part of the charm though. Just match the levels and live with it. You can't compare the beautiful full dynamic range of the Chess sound with the chopped off bottom and top of the RCA stuff. So put it on in all it's flawed glory.Jones did participate in both the Beggars Banquet (included here with the original “toilet cover”) and the final Let it Bleed, albeit sporadically. By this time, his drug habit and emotional problems became too troublesome for the recording sessions. Glyn Johns, suggests that both these last albums from this era of the Stones were the coming of age for the group, “…signalled The Rolling Stones' coming of age.... I think that the material was far better than anything they'd ever done before. The whole mood of the record was far stronger to me musically.” As such, when Jones did finally come into work, Johns would isolate him in a booth, let him play what he liked, and never include the recording in the mix. Exasperated, both Jagger and Richards told Johns to “Just tell him to piss off and get the hell out of here!”. Offiziellecharts.de – The Rolling Stones – The Rolling Stones in Mono" (in German). GfK Entertainment Charts. Retrieved 27 January 2023. Even so, the new box set issue completely blew it away and there were numerous reasons for that. Partly they were down to the quality of the remastering but also a testament of Teri Landi’s insistence of sourcing first or best quality early generation recordings. Hence, the sound stage on the new issue was wider, fuller and more mature in its presentation. What has been eradicated was a rather annoying ‘compression’ element that hung off the vocal and especially the lead guitar. When Jagger sang about his King Bee, he demanded a few “stinging” guitar moments which prompted high pitched guitar playing. On the 80s reissue, these moments were actually ear piercingly bright. On the new issue, they were informative and full of detail. Exclusive to the 2016 and 2023 boxes is Stray Cats, a double-LP collection of two dozen mono single-only material and odds and ends, including "Con Le Mie Lacrime," an Italian-language version of "As Tears Go By," and "Stoned," the non-LP B-side of "I Wanna Be Your Man." The cheeky sleeve design to Stray Cats recalls the art to Beggars Banquet, which will be presented with its original "bathroom wall" cover now present on most CD reissues. Nonetheless, almost everything was recorded in one studio by but a few engineers and all of the tapes were stored in Abbey Road’s lower level vault where they remain to this day.

Despite the fact that almost all the tapes used in the box set were first generation, sometimes, you have no choice in the matter because it’s the only and/or best source (sometimes later generation sources sound better than first generation because the ‘first’ is in a relatively poor condition or somesuch). Even if a second generation tape has been used (and most of the sources in this box were first) then the second generation tape was an original source tape.” The Rolling Stones In Mono(Box Set, Compilation, Limited Edition, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Compilation, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve, CD, Compilation, Remastered, Mono, SHM-CD, Mini-LP Sleeve)SID mould code ifpi B404 (or similar) or IFPI O8N5.
