Torn and Frayed - Rehearsed in 1978? (Read 1,057 times)

Throwaway Rocks Off Regular Offline Posts: 826 MD Gender:	Torn and Frayed - Rehearsed in 1978? Dec 5^th, 2013 at 5:19pm Stumbled across this on YT - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxVUj_G-QDo Can anyone verify if it is indeed 78 and not 72? I know 78 was more punk on stage but I think T&F could have had an awesome raw feel. Unfortunately, Mick only sings about one line in the recording, but Charlie was definitely good that night.

Its not on the 'Woodstock Tapes', the 4-CD of '78 rehearsals which are the only circulating set of tour rehearsals.

This is from the '72 rehearsal tape that they did in Dallas (23rd June, to be exact) the day before they filmed the four shows used on "Ladies & Gentlemen" (many years ago, this was erroneously booted as Exile outtakes)

Greenfield's "STP" book describes a snap decision to tighten the performances on the tour with a mid-tour rehearsal which turned out to be utterly chaotic with barely one song being played properly the whole way through. The recordings bear this out. Great sound, but not an easy listen. They had a go at songs like Torn and Frayed, Ventilator Blues, let It Loose, 32-20 Blues, Key To The Highway, etc.

Sounded like 72, quality wise. T&F, Loving Cup, and Ventilator in their sole live performances sound much worse than the rehearsals, but I can't blame the boys (weird key changes, rhythms, etc.), and I have no complaints about the performances of the tunes they mixed in like Bye Bye Johnny.
