I need to say that they couldn't find better version of "Satisfaction" for Guitar Hero than that one! The guitars smoke, and the famous riff has not sounded nastier ever!
Just listen to "Under My Thumb" while I write - sounds great!

I'm excited about the new material, but I am with the others who believe this could've been better. It's not about being ungrateful or trying to find fault, it's just a case of being annoyed at the amount of empty space on these discs.
I'm glad they didn't tamper with the original album, but they could've easily put the 5 bonus tracks on the end. Making this a 2 CD set instead of 3.
5 songs on 1 discs seems like a rip off to me!
I'm very glad about the support acts discs, no complaints there.
The Maysles filmed all the MSG Shows as well as Altamont and Miami Beach.
They have also said in the past that they have ALL the original rushes that they filmed! Therefore a whole MSG DVD coud've been edited together and released here!
We get 5 songs on the DVD? that's it? That sucks!
Can you imagine a compete 65 min DVD film of the Rolling Stones as Madison Square Garden in November 1969? Well, that's all we can do, because of this missed opportunity.
Compare this set with the Elvis special editioon box sets like "That's The Way It Is" (audio), "Aloha From Hawaii (DVD)" "68 Comeback Special (DVD)" and tell me you wouldn't prefer this ya-ya's release to be more like these!!!!

I'll be curious if ABKCO offers the bonus tracks individually to iTunes as I'm sure many folks with the 2002 remaster of YA-YA'S would prefer to simply spend the bare minimum to purchase five new songs rather than digging deep for a two-disc or four-disc box set.
$59.98 DOES seem like a pretty steep price to pay for the five bonus tracks, IF the five bonus tracks are all you're interested in.
Cant imagine anyone who would be interested in the 5 tracks WOULDNT also be interested in the DVD and 56-page booklet, though.

Well its not too hard just to load all the songs into your computer and arrange them in correct order and burn a cd.

Pity only it seems they didn't take the medley version of Thumb and I'm free. Always loved that great medley!

This is the November 27 medley.
They´ve slightly edited it to seperate the two songs. If you listen closely you´ll hear that the playing at the end of Under My Thumb is exactly the same as the beginning of I´m Free.
This has to be my favorite version of Satisfaction. Charlie´s drumming is amazing!

The last one:
According the audience recording I can't remember that Charlie was involved, There are no drums on the original.

Yes I heard it too. I guess the reasons could be : The tapes weren't in good condition (weren't taken after very good by ABCKO, unlike the Beatles masters by EMI)
Or this is done deliberately too hide the 'faults'. or the fact that some was out of key in those songs.
only speculating here!
Wow, that never occurred to me! Thanks Tod!Quote
