Best Bootleg of the modern era stones- 89 and later

what do you think is the best overall boot around for the modern era stones- i would have to say cleveland 2002- they were just on fire that night like no other and the sound quality was excellent

Probably Atlantic City sound quality-wise. But for me it's the Kuip, Rotterdam, 2nd show, 2003. It was my first Stones show so I'm really glad to have the bootleg.

I also think Cleveland '02 is a tough boot to beat, at least as far as audience sources go. Best audience source and contender for best overall in the modern era: Stuttgart '99. Stunning.

all the same source, Theif.....

So,I guess the only reason that VGP put out the Get Your Kicks re-release (without the rehearsal bonus tracks) was to try to get people to buy the same thing twice.

you mean to tell me the bootleggers are in it for the money? geez....you learn something new everyday, eh?

I know.It's pretty obvious but,usually a re-release offers at least some kind of minor difference and/or improvement in sound quality.

it's entirely possible the later release was EQ'd or something...but I believe the original taper communicated on this forum once that they were from the same source. In any event, it remains THE best audience source (from a sound-quality standpoint) of a Stones show I've ever heard.

The best audience recordings from this era that I've heard are:

- Women, Wine, and Song (Nov 27/97, Las Vegas)
- MSG3 Remastered (Jan 17/98, New York City)
- Sweet Home Stockholm (Sep 8/98, Stockholm)
- While the Wind Blows Over Toronto (Feb 25/99, Toronto)
- German Girls (May 29/99, Stuttgart)
- Wembley 99 (Jun 11/99, London)
- Budokan Hall (Mar 10/03, Tokyo)
- Nationwide Arena (Sep 24/05, Columbus)
- Toyota Centre (Dec 1/05, Houston)

Regarding the 89-95 years, there are too many good soundboards to worry about audience recordings.

Haven't heard that many from this era, but concerning setlist/performance/atmosphere L'Olympia '95 is very good. Shepherds Bush and Double Door are also fine. I much prefer the club shows, haven't got any fom the Licks tour yet.

all of the theater Licks' shows produced excellent quality recordings. If I had to pick one based on sound alone, I'd probably go with Astoria....

Also Paradiso '95... and most of the theater shows 2002/2003.

Yes, it is. But it's not an entire show and several of the tracks are officially released by the Stones themselves.

My votes: Atlantic City ยด89 and Sweet Home New York City (Jan 1998).

The recent bootleg I listen the most to, is actually "Ultra Rare Live Licks vol. 1". The web-page-live-songs. It's just a compilation, but it got very nice versions of Torn And Frayed, Thru And Thru and Monkey Man, to name a few.
Anyway, it don't get "boring", because it don't include the warhorses. (I love the warhorses while being at a concert, but on CD it's.....you know)
Perhaps this was a lame post.

to make things easier, Erik, perhaps you should use the "footer" option on the board to save yourself the key strokes....

All the ones mentioned are great, but the best has to be Dead Man Cumming, which is a four disc EV set. The venue is misidentified on the boot as Washington or Boston rehearsals, but it is actually the full 28-song rehearsals for the Philly opening show in 1989. These were August 28 and August 29, and are in perfect soundboard quality. Set list is the same for each show:

Start me Up, Bitch, Shattered, Sad Sad Sad, Undercover of the Night, Harlem Shuffle, Miss You, Tumbling Dice, Ruby Tuesday, Play With Fire, Dead Flowers, One Hit (to the body), Mixed Emotions, Honkey Tonk Women, Rock and a Hard Place, Midnight Rambler, You Can't Always Get What You Want, Little Red Rooster, Before They Make Me Run, Happy, Paint it Black, 2000 Lightyears from Home, Sympathy for the Devil, Gimme Shelter, It's Only Rock and Roll, Brown Sugar, Satisfaction, Jumping Jack Flash

They don't do setlist like that nowadays!
