Variety got an exclusive look - and listen - to the RollingStones' 50th anniversary edition of their greatest album, 'Let It Bleed'
, there’s a lovely deluxe booklet loaded with photos, a 7″ vinyl single and other accoutrements. But what really matters is how it sounds, and this weekgot an exclusive guided sonic tour of the album from the company’s ace in-house engineer, Teri Landi.
Like the Beatles’ catalog, the Stones’ ‘60s canon has been revamped several times already, so another one has to be special. And even though the pristine sound in Landi’s studio is hardly a fair representation of how most mortals will hear this album, the dramatic upgrade in sound is impossible to miss. The vocals are cleaner than ever, the drums pop and rumble and snap, and the bass is actually audible .
So what’s lurking in these newly rescrubbed grooves? “Gimme Shelter” reveals a previously obscured lead guitar part and a seemingly astonished “Yeah!” from Jagger during Clayton’s soaring vocal, but most striking of all is the way Richards’ chiming rhythm guitar drives the song as much as the drums; his preternatural sense of rhythm and the way he locks in with drummer Charlie Watts have always been the heart of the Stones’ sound.
Yet the album’s masterpiece comes last, with the closing “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” — and no matter how many times you’ve heard it, you’ll hear something new in this remaster.
