| Original liner notes from Hot Heartbreakers: |
| Short story for those who don't like reading: this release uses previously unreleased SOUNDBOARD TAPE and MASTER AUDIENCE TAPE to present you the definitive version of this concert, an upgrade over all previous releases. And now, let's get started! The concert at the Municipal Auditorium, Buffalo (N.Y,) on June 15th 1975 -not to be with confused with the second show in Buffalo that year, the last stop of the tour: Rich Stadium the 8th August- was initially released by an unknown label from Italy in 1991 in the CD Hot As Hell (75-HH-90581), ten songs in Soundboard quality mixed with another four songs from an Earls Court show from 25th May 1976. The album was also copied by another unknown label as Buffalo 1975 (RSCD 75), although some people claim it was the other way round. No problem because the sound was inferior to Japanese label Vinyl Gang Product's release from 1994, Heartbreakers In Buffalo 1975 (VGP 028), that also included an extra soundboard song, the opener Honky Tonk Women, and also spliced together the previously incomplete Luxury with an audience source. That audience tape was also used in Vinyl Gang Products release to include two songs not bootlegged before: Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker) and Fingerprint File. Only a year latter, in 1995, the Japanese label Shaved Disc, released Hottest In Hell (TSD 013) from a different copy of the same Soundboard tape used by VGP -no audience tracks in Shaved Disc release-, but what gained in clarity -less hiss than VGP- it lacked in running extremely fast. Finally the VGP release was copied in the boxset The Missing Jewels (RS 025-028) in 2001 by Rattlesnake label, a compendium of 1975's soundboards -just this show and the 28th July show at Cobo Hall, Detroit (MI)- and associated audience rarities. This release of Sweet Black Angels is an amazing upgrade over previous releases of the soundboard: the stereo separation is fabulous and the clarity of the recording is unbeatable; as it does happen with almost all soundboard recordings the balance improves as they go, but just wait until half Honky Tonk Women to be there, as Jagger says before If You Can't Rock Me: sure is hotter than hell in here! It was a fantastic show and a must for every fan of Tour Of The Americas '75: just check Jagger sayng the Sha La Le line in All Down The Line from the acoustic version, his A sad story about a bad girl introduction of Star Star while Keith restart the opening chords as he waits for him to quit talking, Keith cranking up the rate dial on the phaser effect for Gimme Shelter's intro, You Gotta Move chorus line version, Woody's big spotlight solo on You Can't Always Get What You Want. or Keith really rocking Happy and Tumbling Dice. The soundboard do finish with Luxury -a rarity in this quality- and fades into the other big surprise from this release: the master audience tape, with a clear and bright sound that would have made it a must even if the soundboard tape didn't exist. We've been able not only to give you superb renditions of Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker) and Fingerprint File, but also two songs never before heard from the show that do benefit from this crystal clear sound, Angie and Wild Horses. Hot Heartbreakers is dedicated to Charlie Rockin' Rott and Mario Dog & Cats, without whom this release would not have been possible. |
