Live at KB Hallen, Copenhagen, Denmark 23rd September 1971

September 23, 1971 Copenhagen ‘s Copenhagen ’71, supplemented with sub – sources primarily for the recording of the best audiences, Copenhagen ’71, the first pseudo – complete recording title appeared in a two – sheet press board!

This live tone generator has been released since the 70’s of analog LP era and probably first appeared in LP called “Copenhagen” (CBM series SHALOM). Besides, in the analog age, “1971 Live In Denimerk” (APPOLINAIRE) released as a European made LP is also released. Both are “mystery”, “Blues”, and “Echoes” recorded three songs. Although the sound source is the same sound source (recorder 1) as the main CD of this time, the details of the recording date / venue is not fixed and credits are written up to Copenhagen in September 1971.

The title of 2 CD set called “Falkoner Teatret 25.09.71 Vol. 1 & 2” (LIFE LIVE) which is thought to be made in Luxembourg around 1991 was released and the tone quality also got a lot of good tunes and this is the first time in CD form Appearance. Although atomic mothers were credited, in fact they were not recorded yet, and incompleteness was also confirmed in the assignment of trucks. Also as it is in the title the venue notation and the date were not clear yet so it was different from the actual. In addition, it is probably that correct date and place credit are corrected at this live from the beginning of the 21st century.

And after the release of the LIFE LIVE board it has been released completely for a while without release update, it is a performance that turned into a rare live for a while but it is a performance that is “Northern Old Sun” (Shout To The Top) It was a while since its appearance. But here the “September 23 concert” and the date and time were updated to the correct data, but the venue remained mis-credit and, contrary to the credit credits, “atomic heart mother” was still unrecorded, There was also an incompleteness in the truck division (the part corresponding to the atomic mother mother was trucked in the second part of “Simba line”).

And around 2006, “Danish Blues” (2 CD) appeared from Sirene. Although the venue inscription remained as Falkoner Teatret, the sound quality improved dramatically, and furthermore, “atomic heart mother” was unacknowledged in the early part (Rec 1 seems not to have originally existed in Rec 1), but finally it became a harsh board. The sun praise remained as usual in the second half as usual (Rec1 was originally none), but this will result in the full board of recorder 1 appearing in this board.

And a few years ago the second sound source of this live began to circulate, the sound quality is inferior to the recorder 1, Blues cuts out, but the early stage of the “atomic heart mother” that was missing in the recorder 1 Including a large number of “Song of the Sun” and the inter-track part of each song, it is a very important important sound source in terms of content, and with the existing title using Recorder 1 due to the appearance of this sound source, recorded tracks We found out that there was a mistake in order, and it reaches the present.

This time it will be the first pseudo complete recording title that compensates recorder 1 (Mono / Audience Recording) which is extremely superior in sound quality, Recorder 2 (here also monaural and audience recording) of the missing part. By supplementing with the recorder 2, the recording time has also become the title that can be said to be just the decision board, enlarging 125 minutes and 15 minutes, which was originally about 110 minutes by recorder 1 alone.

Both of the used sound sources are net sound sources this time, the recorder 1 used as the main uses “superprocessed” as compared with the previous episode, the superb sound source which was more viable, freshness · dense · punch is used. Recorder 2 used for compensation uses a sound source that was uploaded several years ago by Mr. Neon Knight who is familiar with the fan completely (* Atomic mother only uses another version of recorder 2). Both sound sources also applied pitch correction and volume adjustment, remodeled and monauralized what was fluffy and ambiguous texture due to deviation of tape phase while monaural recording, and tailored it to sound with a sense of stability stuck with Zushiri and waist.

Recorder 2 carefully compensated for musical parts and musical pieces that were missing in recorder 1 by recorder 2 through thorough research. Almost everything except for the songs between “atomic heart mother” and “ECHOES” which is the turning point of the disc during the live main part, between songs of “mystery” and “Blues” (somewhat missing for the encore)) almost live It plays a complete collection of itself. In recorder 1, sound breaks (sound splashing) similar to the ones already launched are scattered in some places, but in addition to performing fine adjustment to the extent that it does not become unnatural, dilute the recorder 2 to the place where the splashing is continuous such as “atomic heart mother” Overdub to the sound of audible perception to ease the sound break.

Also, due to the appearance of recorder 2, the songs that had been replaced by the old disc were also recorded in the correct song order. In the early departure, Simba line which was recorded before the atomic mother of live midframe fell behind the live end ECHOES performance.

On this day there is also a very wonderful performance content, especially the early “Fat Old Sun” can be said to be a very famous performance. It is a wonderful live version which is completely different from the studio version originally, the dynamic and static contrast is also a wonderful live version, but this day is an exceptionally crazy and awesome performance, looking at other performances by Rick’s organ, Nick in the middle part You can listen to the splendid performance which is superior to the most recent nominated “BBC Live” such as snare which can not be folded. Also the ending of ECHOES is Jean! And the rare take that ends with “KIME” is familiar to fans as well, this is also worth a listening.

Also included as a bonus track the recorder 2 version of the sun anthem.
It is the recorder 2 used for compensating the latter half of the same song in this volume, but here it is a bonus recording by recording with recorder 2 alone. It was recorded just because it fits in the Girigiri CD.

The CD board surface is a picture label, the front jacket is folded double-sided color, and the first complete recording board of ’71 Copenhagen performance appears!

1971年9月23日コペンハーゲン公演を極上オーディエンス録音をメインにサブソースで補填したコペンハーゲン’71、初の疑似完全収録タイトルが2枚組プレス盤で登場!

本ライブ音源はアナログLP時代の70年代からリリースされており “Copenhagen”(CBM系SHALOM)というLPで恐らく初登場。他にもアナログ時代には”1971 Live In Denimerk”(APPOLINAIRE)という欧州製と思しきLPもリリース。ともに”神秘”、”Blues”、”Echoes”の3曲を収録したもの。音源は今回のCDのメインと同じ音源(レコーダー1)ですが、録音日付・会場の詳細は確定せずクレジットは71年9月のコペンハーゲンまでの記載。

CD時代になり1991年頃にルクセンブルグ製と思われる”Falkoner Teatret 25.09.71 Vol.1&2″(LIFE LIVE)と言う2CDセットのタイトルがリリースされ音質もなかなか良く曲数も増え、これがCD形態での初登場。ただし原子心母がクレジットされているものの実際には未収録であったほか、トラックの割り付けにも不備が確認されるものでした。またタイトルにもあるように会場表記と日付けもまだ明確ではなかったため実際とは異なるものでした。なお本ライブで正確な日付けと場所クレジットが是正されるのは恐らく21世紀に入ってから。

そしてLIFE LIVE盤のリリース後はしばらくリリース更新もなく完全に埋もれ、一時期は入手困難なレアライブと化した本公演ですが、2001年頃に出た”Northern Old Sun”(Shout To The Top)という2CDで久々の登場。しかしここでは「9月23日公演」と日時こそ正しいデータに更新されたものの、会場はミスクレジットのままで、また曲目クレジットとは裏腹に”原子心母”がまたしても未収録で、トラック割にも不備がある(原子心母該当箇所は”シンバライン”の後半部分にトラックが振られている)というものでした。

そして2006年頃になりSireneから”Danish Blues”(2CD)が登場。会場表記こそFalkoner Teatretのままでしたが音質は飛躍的にアップし、さらに”原子心母”が序盤部未収(Rec1は序盤部が元々存在しないようです)ながら遂に初音盤化。太陽賛歌は後半が相変わらず未収(ここもRec1は元々なし)のままでしたが、これで本盤にてレコーダー1の全長盤が出たことになります。

そして数年前にはこのライブの二つ目の音源が流通し始め、音質こそレコーダー1には劣り、Bluesがカットアウトこそしますが、レコーダー1で欠落していた”原子心母”序盤や”太陽賛歌”後半部、さらには各曲の曲間部分を多数含み、内容的には非常に優れた重要音源であり、この音源の登場によりレコーダー1を使用していた既存のタイトルでは収録曲順にも間違いがあったことまで判明し現在に至ります。

今回は音質の極めて優れたレコーダー1(モノラル・オーディエンス録音)をメインに、欠落部をレコーダー2(こちらもモノラル・オーディエンス録音)で補填した初の疑似完全収録タイトルとなります。レコーダー2で補填することにより、収録時間も元々レコーダー1単体では110分ほどだったものも125分と、15分も拡大し、まさに決定盤と言えるタイトルとなっております。

使用音源はともに今回はネット音源で、メインに使用したレコーダー1は”Unprocessed”とされる既発に比べ、より生々しさと鮮度・濃密さ・パンチに長けた極上音源を使用。補填に使用するレコーダー2はファンにはすっかりお馴染みのネオンナイト氏により数年前にアップされた音源を使用(※原子心母のみレコーダー2のさらに別バージョン使用)。両音源ともピッチ修正と音量調整を施し、モノラル録音ながらテープ位相のズレによりフワフワした曖昧な質感だったものを改めてリミックス・モノラル化し、ズッシリと腰の据わった安定感のあるサウンドに仕立てました。

レコーダー1で欠落していた楽曲部や曲間は徹底的なリサーチによりレコーダー2で丁寧に補填。ライブ本編中もディスクの変わり目となる”原子心母”と”ECHOES”の曲間、”神秘”と”Blues”の曲間(アンコールを求める拍手が若干欠落)以外はほぼ全て欠落なく、ほぼライブそのものの完全収録を果たしています。レコーダー1には既発同様の音切れ(音跳ね)が所々散見されますが、不自然にならない程度に微調整を施したほか”原子心母”など跳ねが連続する箇所にはレコーダー2を薄めにオーバーダブして聴感上音切れの緩和をはかるなどしました。

また、レコーダー2の登場により、既発盤で入れ替わっていた楽曲も正しい曲順で収録。既発盤ではライブ中盤の原子心母の前に収録されていたシンバラインがライブ終盤のECHOES演奏後に収まりました。

この日は演奏内容的にも非常に素晴らしいものがあり、特に序盤”Fat Old Sun”はまさに名演中の名演と言えるでしょう。元々スタジオバージョンとは全く異なる、動と静のコントラストも素晴らしいライブバージョンですが、この日はまさに狂気に満ちた凄まじい演奏であり、中間部での溢れ出るリックのオルガン、ニックの他公演には見られないたたみかける怒濤のスネアなど、直近の名演「BBCライブ」以上に勝るとも劣らない凄まじい演奏を聴かせてくれます。またECHOESのエンディングがジャン!と”キメ”で終わっている珍しいテイクなのもファンにはお馴染みのところで、これも一聴の価値があります。

さらにボーナストラックとして太陽賛歌のレコーダー2バージョンを収録。
本編では同曲の後半部の補填に使用したレコーダー2ですが、ここではレコーダー2単体による収録でボーナス収録です。ギリギリCDに収まったので収録したというもの。

CD盤面はピクチャーラベル、フロントジャケは二つ折り両面カラーで’71年コペンハーゲン公演の初の完全収録決定盤が登場です!
