Rolling Stones / Berlin 2022 / 2CD / Non label
Waldbuhne, Berlin, Germany 3rd August 2022
Play sample :
At the beginning of the tour, Mick was infected with Corona, but it was a summer “SIXTY” tour that showed a quick recovery like 2022 and was successfully completed. Reflecting the modern age where video shooting has become too popular, the sound source did not circulate unexpectedly, but even so, a high-quality audience began to appear, starting with the appearance of the best-selling “BRUSSELS AFFAIR 2022” sound source.
As for Berlin on August 3rd, which was the last day of the tour, there are multiple audience recordings that seem to be the last day of the tour. It literally showed a difference in quality from pin to pin, but what boasted outstanding high sound quality was the audio of the YouTube video. However, it is not the sound of a smartphone video. When mania put together the sound sources of the same day scattered on YouTube and made it into one live video, it was covered with the sound source recorded in front of her.
The sound source that appeared in that way was superior to any audience recording on the same day, but it was a really wonderful quality because it was a sound source that appeared after “BRUSSELS AFFAIR 2022”. The closeness of the sound image is as powerful as Brussels and “LYON 2022” that have been released so far. The closeness of Mick’s singing voice, as well as the vividness of Keith’s rough cutting, is a masterpiece. This powerful sound is a sound quality that you can enjoy even if you listen to it carefully with headphones, even if you ring it loudly from the speaker.
However, regarding the sound source this time, the happy excitement of the lady on the right tends to be annoying. The beginning of the live was still good, but the switch started around “You Can’t Always Get What You Want”, and I screamed a lot at “Miss You” and “Midnight Rambler”. Maybe that’s why, in some songs such as “Rocks Off”, there are places where the sound sways while playing, but this may have been a struggle from the aunt next to the taper. Moreover, it’s easy to understand that even though the auntie was so happy and excited, she becomes quiet when she says “Happy” (bitter smile).
However, it is certain that the sound quality is still worth releasing on a limited press CD, and the powerful sound image is still wonderful. Especially if it is the last day of the “SIXTY” tour.
For the tour, “19th Nervous Breakdown” was dropped from the regular position at the end of the Paris performance on July 23, and “All Down The Line” made its first appearance on the tour at this position in Berlin. However, it happened that Mick forgot the lyrics after the first and the song became more and more suspicious because it was a long time (although I was playing on the tour last year). When I saw the video on the same day, Mick apologized to Chuck while playing.
However, after that, the engine full throttle performance that seems to be the last day of the tour shines. “Rocks Off”, which was one of the repertoires that was revived by Steve Jordan, is also wonderful on this day, and “Out Of Time”, which was the highlight of this tour, has become a complete repertoire. I have. I hope you will continue to play it.
More than that, on this day, “Fool To Cry” was played by vote, which is irresistible for maniacs. After all, the memory of the release of El Mocambo is also a new timing. I can’t help but think that he played well. Besides, if the same song is played in Berlin, it is natural for maniacs to think of the 1976 tour.
Such a performance is also truly wonderful, and the atmosphere is reminiscent of ’76 and El Mocambo. They had a great performance last year in Minneapolis and I can’t help but wish they would play more stages.
On the other hand, Keith made a mistake in the composition of the song at the end of the interlude of “Happy”, and it seems that it is also typical of the Stones to see an incident that seems to cause chaos. However, in the finale “Satisfaction”, Mick’s high tension that repeatedly called “Gattagatta” reminiscent of the 60’s was intense, and it was a great performance suitable for the last day of the tour. Release the final day of such a latest tour with a powerful and superb audience!
★ There are many types of sound sources for this day, but this one has the highest sound quality.
