Listening to the Paris show 9/22/70 (the best bunch of a sorry sounding lot of shows...and it's still pretty crap)...this was a @#$%& fantastic tour by the Stones with an interesting set list...a shame there isn't even ONE good SBD from this tour!!! It and the '71 Goodbye UK tour are criminally overlooked...

Fantastic Tour, and definitley a shame that there are no fantastic recordings!

Although it's only an audience recording, you should check out the Berlin show.
Pretty decent sound and a great show too!

Yeah I just found a bunch of torrents of 1970 shows...Essen, Berlin, Stuttgart, Hamburg...will download tonight...

The UK '71 Tour is overlooked due to Leeds University show being the only real recording of quality.

know what, Amsterdam 1970 was my first stones show, front of stage in the RAI .. never did it get any better

I have the Marquee, Roundhouse, and Conventry shows...the first two are SBDs as well, although not nearly as good sounding as Leeds...

the Roundhouse a soundboard?....i don't think so

Correct-the Roundhouse(while it is very good) is Aud recorded.

none of these shows being released by the stones just goes to show how much they dont care about anything except the cash flow of touring

How did the 1970 setlist differ to that of the '69 tour?

I know they performed Roll Over Beethoven.

The shows are EXCEPTIONAL, as are the recordings.

They did not do Under my Thumb or I'm Free in '70. Also no Gimme Shelter or Satisfaction.
They did add Brown Sugar on may gigs, Dead Flowers.

This is what I wrote in another 1970 thread:

Probably the most underrated Stones tour of all time and no big changes of the setlist usually.

1) Jumping Jack Flash
2) Roll Over Beethoven
3) Sympathy For The Devil
4) Stray Cat Blues
5) Love In Vain
6) Prodigal Son
7) You Gotta Move
8) Dead Flowers
9) Midnight Rambler
10) Live With Me
11) Let It Rock
12) Little Queenie
13) Brown Sugar
14) Honky Tonk Women
15) Street Fighting Man

Statistics regarding Germany at least:

A: promoting current (Get Yer...) long player = 90 % of the songs are performed:
#1, 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15

B: promoting longplayers since last tour in Germany (Beggars, Through The Past, Bleed) = about 50 % of the songs performed:
#1, 3-6, 9-10, 15

C: 33 % of all songs performed were unavailable (world wide!) at the time:
#2, 7, 8. 11, 13 = 33%

almost forgot that...:
100 % of all songs had never been performed live before in Germany...

My bad!

Typical setlist of 1969 as asked somewhere above:
1) Jumping Jack Flash
2) Carol
3) Sympathy For The Devil
4) Stray Cat Blues
5) Love In Vain
6) Prodigal Son
7) You Gotta Move
8) Under My Thumb
9) Midnight Rambler
10) Live With Me
11) Little Queenie
12) Satisfaction
13) Honky Tonk Women
14) Street Fighting Man
During most concerts I'm Free and Under My Thumb before ProdigalSon/You Gotta Move.
Gimme Shelter only played during last two concerts (= Palm Beach and Altamont). A also with Brown Sugar

Sometimes, I'm Free was dropped, and a couple of times it was played as a medley with UMT (i.e. NY Nov. 27).

Gimme Shelter was played early in the tour -- Oakland and Fort Collins, maybe Phoenix?

Yeah...never understood why Gimme Shelter was played so infrequently in '69...and not at all in '70 or '71...

I think Europe 1970 is easily the most underrated Stones tour ever. The lack of good recordings doom it to near irrelevancy in the eyes and ears of all except hardcore fans.

Yes. It is analagous to the 1972 Led Zeppelin US tour and the 1972 Who European tour...fantastic tours with crap sounding (and NO true SBD) recordings...

"Shake Your Hips- Berlin has been upgraded to practically soundboard.

StonesFanatic, Gimme Shelter was played at least once (can't say for sure obviously about the shows which were apparently not recorded) on the '70 tour, in Malmo, August 30th, 1970.

But: The most improtant issue of that tour is something else. There is this acoustic bit of Mick and Keith Prodigal Son/You Gotta Move and this was introduced by Mick only a few times with words like "And now for the Glimmer Twin section"! Four years before the two emerged as producers under that name!

I agree! It was a great tour with great music. I saw them in Malmö (Sweden) and they really rocked! It was also the first show of the tour. I still have some not that bad photos from Malmö. I will try and scan them upload them!To my ears at least Berlin is the best sounding boot, better that Paris and Milan!

WOuld be great to see your photos, nomatter if they're in bad quality
Would you remember which encore they did in Malmö?

If I had to choose one favourite 1970 recording, it would be Berlin as well....because of the performance combined with quality. Essen is a close 2nd. But the real hottest 1970 performances are only available in poor quality

I second that emotion for Malmo pix. I particularly like that show as well as Stuttgart, in addition to the others mentioned.

As with the first show of the 1969 tour, Malmo has a looser feel and some of the room given to Taylor (which I enjoyed) was later taken away..

I talked to a dude who saw them in Sweden both 70 & 73, a vocalist in and leader of a
group which someone at this board has been harassing me severely coz I posted them..
But he really worshipped the Stones esp. in the 70s and said they were just superior back then.

Essen 70 was my first Stones live gig.
Have some funny memories from that show.

Malmö was a bit of a disapointment for a tour start.Just a few thousand fans and not sold out!
But those were the days when everybody was going for "progressive rock" and virtuous (guitar)playing.

OK, I will se what I can do with the pictures!
By, the way here is the Malmö setlist from Nicos page!

700830B 30th August: Malmoe, Sweden, Baltiska Hallen
(Jumping Jack Flash/Roll Over Beethoven/Sympathy For The Devil/Stray
Cat Blues/Love In Vain/Prodigal Son/You Gotta Move/Dead Flowers/
Midnight Rambler/Gimme Shelter/Live With Me/Let It Rock/Little
Queenie/Brown Sugar/Honky Tonk Women/Street Fighting Man)

Hmm...that's the version I have and to me it just sounds like a better-than-average 1970 AUD recording...

Me and other Iorrians have opportunity to grab the complete Milan Nov. 1, 1970 afternoon show. If interested, please e-mail me at stonestree@yahoo.it
