Freddie King | Live Fillmore West | September 3rd 1970

Lantower Records presenta el concierto que Freddie King y su banda dieran durante el Festival Fillmore West el 3 de septiembre de 1970.

Características de la Restauración:
No hay compresión. No se utilizan filtros. Las frecuencias se equilibraron para lograr un sonido general equilibrado. Se aplicaron controles para sonidos fuera de registro o “rotos”, con el fin de facilitar la escucha. Dada la diferencia en la calidad de sonido entre las pistas durante el concierto, se hizo un intento de hacer el sonido general lo más homogéneneo posible. En todos los temas se buscó conciliar el respeto por la estética original de las grabaciones en vivo de la época con las actuales posibilidades tecnológicas en relación con la recuperación del timbre y los fantasmas del sonido de cada instrumento, dar al registro el mayor realismo posible. Todos los cambios de altura han sido reubicados a su tono original. El lenguaje y la estética musical de Freddie King y su Blues Band se pueden escuchar en el mejor equilibrio de sonido posible con total transparencia y definición por primera vez.
