KEITH RICHARDS
and The X-Pensive Winos
The 1988 US shows
24th November – 17th December 1988

This is a series dedicated to Keith Richards’ shows with The X-pensive Winos in the US in 1988.
A big thank you to all the people who recorded these shows and who shared them and to my two accomplices nzb and Jaap (Stonesmuziekfan) who gave me the benefit of their versions of these shows and their advice and support ... and therefore without whom this project would not have been possible.

I wasn't very happy with the quality of the first Chicago-recording I posted (see vo-lume 11). Luckily I was contacted by Wolfgang who sent me a much better sounding alter-native version (especially in the second half of the show). For information about this ver-sion: see the 'docs'-folder.
I checked its speed (which is correct), I added a little more bass, and then as usual, I re-worked the transitions between the tracks that now start with the song. And I upgraded the beginning and the end for the cd-r.
A big thank you to Wolgang!
