★ The first half of the new source (recording time of less than 60 minutes) is used as a sub-source, and the first half and missing parts are supplemented and recorded!
Although it is not a complete recording, the first half of the 28 minutes is the first recording, and “What Is And What Should Never Be”
Also recorded in the first completed version!
★ As a bonus, the new source is a 3-disc press decision board that has been recorded on Disc 3 as a whole!
★ The pitch that was sloppy with the new sauce is thoroughly adjusted for the first time!
Naturally, the pitch twist of the early part of “What Is And What Should Never Be” has been resolved for the first time in this board!

From the North American tour in the spring of 1970, the definitive edition of the Tampa performance will be released on a 3-disc press CD!

This time, based on the high-quality stereo / Aud sound source that has been familiar for a long time, Source 2 (mono / Aud sound source) that first appeared in recent years.
Introducing the best version, where the missing parts centered on the first half of the live have been carefully filled and the pitch has been thoroughly adjusted!

The main stereo sound source was a sound source famous to fans as “MAKUNDJU” (Screaming Oiseau) in the analog LP era, and was made into a CD in the old Tara, POT board, Cobra board, etc. in the 1990s. Originally it was a sound source with high sound quality as it was, but in the 2000s, the recorder himself digitized the version from the original master with No EQ, and the freshness has improved dramatically. However, it was recorded from the middle of Bring It Home, and the fact that the beginning of the live was not recorded was a disaster, and the CD conversion from the original master did not proceed unexpectedly, and in the mid-2010s “TAMPA 1970” (2CD No Label) It will only be realized by such means.

Meanwhile, the team “DoD”, which continues to release valuable first-appearing sound sources in recent years, is another feat!
The sound source that first appeared this time is a monaural Aud sound source that can be said to have sufficiently high sound quality, although the recording time is as short as about 60 minutes.
What’s more, fortunately, the super high point is to capture the early part of the live that I couldn’t listen to until now. However, the first appearance of “Heartbreaker” was recorded for less than 2 minutes, “Bring It On Home” was not recorded, and the final part of the live was not recorded, so it was completely recorded because there are parts that can not be covered. I will not go, but by supplementing with this new sound source, it is possible to record all the songs played on the day.
The first half of “What Is And What Should Never Be” is supplemented with this new sound source, and the recording is realized in the first completed version while being simulated. In addition, after the White Summer performance, the intro part of “Moby Dick” is carefully supplemented with this new sound source without any discomfort.
In addition, this new sound source was very difficult to hear because the tape speed was twisted, probably because the battery was dead from around the organ solo, but in this board, the twisted wakame seaweed has been thoroughly adjusted. Naturally, the compensation part in the early part of “What Is And” is also carefully corrected, and the problem of pitch twist is solved for the first time in this board, and you can appreciate it from beginning to end without stress or discomfort.
Also, in the main source 1, the speed fluctuation was confirmed in some places in the organ solo, but that was also adjusted brilliantly, and the pitch problem has been solved for the first time in this board for the existing source 1.

Also, as a bonus, this new source is recorded again in Disc3. Since this new sound source is used extensively in the early part of Disc1’s live, it will be duplicated from the intro to “Heartbreaker”, but Disc3 is a real bonus disc, and here is a new source that emphasizes materiality.・ It is recorded only.
This is the first time that this new source-only form has been made into a CD, and the point is that you can listen to parts other than those used for compensation in Discs 1 and 2 of the main story. The edited version of “What Is And” in the main story is a one-stop version with a new source, and most of the tracks after “White Summer” will be the first CD part except for “What Is And”.
Of course, the pitch has been thoroughly adjusted here as well, and you can enjoy it without any discomfort even after the organ solo, which you couldn’t stand listening to with the original sound source.

★初登場の新ソース(収録時間60分弱のもの)をサブソースに、前半部や既発欠落部を補填収録!
完全収録ではありませんが、前半28分ほどが初収録のほか、「What Is And What Should Never Be」
も初の完成版で収録!
★ボーナスにその新ソース改めてDisc3に丸ごと収録した3枚組のプレス決定盤!
★新ソースでヨレヨレだったピッチは初めて徹底アジャスト!
当然「What Is And What Should Never Be」序盤部の補填もピッチヨレが本盤で初めて解消!

’70年春の北米ツアーよりタンパ公演の決定盤が3枚組プレスCDで登場!

今回は以前からお馴染みの高音質ステレオ・Aud音源をベースに、近年初登場したソース2(モノ・Aud音源)
でライブ前半部分を中心にした欠落部が丁寧に補填され、なおかつピッチも徹底アジャストされたベスト・バージョンでの登場です!

メインのステレオ音源は、アナログLP時代には『MAKUNDJU』(Screaming Oiseau)としてファンには有名な音源であり、’90年代にも旧タラやPOT盤、コブラ盤などでCD化されてきたもの。元々それなりに高音質の音源でしたが、2000年代に入ると録音者自らがオリジナルマスターからNo EQでデジタル化したバージョンも出回り鮮度も格段にアップ。しかしBring It Home途中からの収録であり、ライブ冒頭が未収録である点が災いしたのか、オリジナルマスターからのCD化は意外にも進まず、2010年代半ばに『TAMPA 1970』(2CD No Label)などでやっと実現する程度にとどまります。

そんななか、近年貴重な初登場音源を公開し続けるチーム「DoD」が今回もまたまた快挙!
今回の初登場音源は収録時間が約60分と短いながらも、十分高音質と言えるモノラルAud音源。
しかも、ラッキーなことに今まで聴けなかったライブ序盤部分を捉えているのが超高ポイント。もっとも、初登場の「Heartbreaker」は2分弱の収録であり、また「Bring It On Home」は未収録、またライブ終盤部も未収録であり、補填しきれない箇所もあるため完全収録とまでは行きませんが、この新音源で補填することにより一応当日演奏された全曲の収録が実現。
「What Is And What Should Never Be」は前半部がこの新音源で補填され疑似ながら初の完成版での収録が実現。他にもWhite Summer演奏後曲間、「Moby Dick」イントロ部などがこの新音源で丁寧に違和感なく補填されています。
なお、この新音源はオルガンソロ辺りからバッテリー切れの影響なのか、テープスピードがヨレヨレで非常に聞きづらいものでしたが、本盤ではそのヨレヨレワカメが徹底アジャストされています。当然「What Is And」の序盤部分の補填部も補正は丁寧に施されており、ピッチヨレの問題が本盤で初めて解消、ストレスも違和感もなく終始鑑賞頂けます。
また、メインのソース1でもオルガン・ソロにて所々スピードの揺れが確認されましたが、そちらも見事にアジャストされ、既存のソース1についても本盤にて初めてピッチの問題が解消されています。

またボーナス的にDisc3に今回の新ソースが改めて丸ごと収録されています。Disc1のライブ序盤にてこの新音源が大々的に使われているため、イントロから「Heartbreaker」までは重複収録とはなりますが、Disc3は実質ボーナスディスクであり、ここでは資料性を重視した新ソース・オンリーでの収録となっております。
この新ソースオンリーという形態でのCD化は初めてであり、本編Disc1、2で補填に使用された以外のパーツが聴けるのがポイントです。本編では編集バージョンだった「What Is And」は新ソースでの一気通貫バージョンであり、「White Summer」以降のトラックは「What Is And」を除くと殆どが初CD化パートとなります。
なお、当然ここでもピッチは徹底アジャストされており、元音源でヨレヨレで聴くに堪えなかったオルガン・ソロ以降も全く違和感なく鑑賞頂けます。

限定ナンバリング入りで、ステッカーが添付された仕様。
CDラベルはピクチャーディスクの永久仕様の愛蔵盤で登場です!
