Winterland Ballroom, San Francisco, California, USA 6th & 7th November 1969

Two types of audience recording takes recording the Winterland performance on November 6, 1969 are recorded on two discs each. The recently released version mainly uses the “Source 2” take used in this version, and fills in the missing parts such as the intro and What Is And What Should Never Be with “Source 1”. However, this edition directly records the master quality version of the two sources as it is. Source 1 isn’t as good as Source 2 with high sound quality, but it’s recorded with good enough sound for this era, and even with the finest cut points, it’s still a must-have take for collectors. .. You can enjoy live performances with many listening places such as Good Times Bad Times / Communication Breakdown, which was performed only for a short period of time, and C’Mon Everybody and Something Else, which are encores, with good sound. Furthermore, the excellent take that seems to be the closest to the master among the existing takes of the same venue performance on November 7 is recorded. As a whole, it is recorded with a sufficiently good sound quality with excellent separation feeling, but there are some places such as Dazed And Confused and How Many More Times where the problem of curly tape occurs frequently. On this day, Bach’s Bouree will appear on Heartbreaker’s solo, and Jimmy will misunderstand the composition (3:11) on the following Dazed And Confused, and you can hear the band getting confused with a lively sound. Babe I’m Gonna Leave You has not been confirmed to perform after this performance. The sound with a deep and clear texture is wonderful for all three takes, and it is a set that can be fully enjoyed by beginners to enthusiasts regardless of the take.

1969年11月6日のウィンターランド公演を収録した２種のオーディエンス録音テイクをそれぞれ2枚のディスクに収録。近年リリースされた既発盤は、本盤で使用されている「Source 2」テイクをメインに使用し、イントロやWhat Is And What Should Never Beなど、欠落部分を「Source 1」で補填するという形が取られていますが、本盤はその2つのソースのマスター・クオリティ版をそのままダイレクトに収録しています。Source 1は高音質のSource 2程ではないにせよ、この時代としては十分に良質なサウンドで収録されており、微細なカットポイントがあるにせよ、やはりコレクター必携のテイクであることと思われます。短期間のみ演奏されたオープニングのGood Times Bad Times/Communication Breakdown、アンコールのC’Mon EverybodyとSomething Elseなど聴き所の多いライブを良質なサウンドで楽しむことができます。更には11月7日の同会場公演の、現存するテイクの中で、最もマスターに近いと思われる優良なテイクを収録しています。総じて、分離感抜群の十分に良好な音質で収録されていますが、Dazed And ConfusedやHow Many More Times等の一部でキュルっというテープの問題が多発する箇所があります。この日はHeartbreakerのソロではバッハのBoureeが登場したり、続くDazed And Confusedではジミーが構成を勘違いし(3:11)、バンドが混乱に陥る様子を生々しいサウンドで聴くことができます。Babe I’m Gonna Leave Youはこの公演以降の演奏が確認されていません。３テイクとも、深くクリアーな質感を持ったサウンドは素晴らしく、どのテイクをとっても、ビギナーからマニアまで十分に楽しめるセットに仕上がっています。海外より、6枚組プレスCDにて限定入荷しました。
