Description
Live at Madison Square Garden, July 26, 1972.
I have scoured the internet and can barely find evidence of it's existence. I certainly couldn't find another for sale or that had sold. Both websites I found information are listed below. This is one of those once in a lifetime pieces that you have the opportunity to add to your record or memorabilla collection.
I have found very little on this release online. It appears to be a 4th generation "Stereo version" instead of mono like earlier versions.
Discogs refuses to allow it's members to sell the record on it's site. https://www.discogs.com/The-Rolling-Stones-Welcome-To-New-York/release/13482815
From what appears to be a poorly made fan site: "The Madison Square Garden performance on July 26, 1972 is one of those fine moments in Rolling Stones live recorded history. Perhaps it's the fact that it was Jagger's 29th birthday that made such a difference. The energy and delivery of the performance is captured in an incredible "line" soundboard stereo recording. The "wide" stereo separation features Richards and keyboards on the left, Taylor on the right, drums and vocal in the middle, and horns split between the two channels. Interestingly enough it's the original vinyl discs that provide the basis for sound benchmarks of the CD recordings. The reason for this is that the tape source for the incredible vinyl LP's first issued by Trade Mark of Quality (TMoQ) out of greater Los Angeles county has never turned-up in tape trading circles. With this in mind one can only look for the finest sound reproduction on CD's made from the old LP's. The finest CD copy of the original "Welcome To New York" LP ends up on an unusual recording and not The Swingin' Pig as one might expect. The original LP's were issued by the TMoQ label in several variations with matrix numbers that identify original mono issues from later "wide" stereo issues. The running order of the songs also varies from the original RS-546 matrix number." FROM https://www.rollingstonesnet.com/Welcome_To_NY.htm
This thing is beautiful. Cover: Condition VG++ - Original Shrink. Yellow & Red picture of Keith on stage with a Gibson Guitar and a Bottle in his right hand. This cover is an insert that appears to be a sticker or glued to the front on a plain white jacket. "Stereo" on insert with Smoking Pig Logo and TMOQ 71080. TMQ or TMOQ is the record label company "Trade Mark Of Quality. No track times listed on sleeve or (TMOQ) labels. Incomplete show. No country or year of release indicated.
RECORD: Condition VG++. So Shiny! I was able to find one light scratch (maybe an inch) but I always sat there could be more that are not that obvious, but I looked hard! The original Matrix # was scratched out and another added. This is common with the more common versions of this release. On side one there is some marking on the label from where it hit the center spindle of the record player.
