Hyde park 69 and a some shows in europe 1973

okey dokey!

Did they ever do a better Sympathy than during Hyde Park? Not many times I think.

But I don't understand how someone can prefer stadiumrock to shows in smaller venues like during the 1973 European tour. And I was there in 1973 and 1982 (also in 1976, in a very little stadium).

kleermaker - i wish I knew of some Jones era stuff fo r you but I don't. I'd like to know myself if there are any complet 1967 shows out there.

Yes - Milan, Zurich, Paris, The Hague and Vienna.

Strangely, there is only one Jones-era US show in circulation - his final US show from Honolulu in July 1966, which is taken from a broadcast source. Not a single US audience recording circulates.

On the 1978 tour,

AKA the disappointment tour.

From the crappy opener "Let It Rock" to the string of Some Girls tunes that never seemed to end, to Mick's guitar playin experiment, and the short haircuts, and the afternoon shows that ruined the atmosphere of the concert.

I think that is a good start.

Best opener ever and the greatest band in the world promoting a brilliant return to form by showing enough belief in their music to play 8 out of 10 songs off their new record.

Whats not to like?

Don't forget the addition of Sweet Little 16.
That one kinda gets lost in the discussions about that tour.
That was another great choice, I think.
What would you rather hear, Sweet Little 16 or Love Train?

Neither, something original that they wrote to start.

Neither of those songs were an opener, but why should an opener be something they wrote themselves? They've done plenty of great covers. Cant see how you can wrong with a Chuck Berry song myself.

IMO I think the Stones should open their shows with their own material. I like Chuck Berry's stuff but I think it belongs inside the show.

The Stones are legends in their own and don't need to open with anyone else's material. They have definitely earned that place.

Besides if they open with a warhorse that is one less car on the train of warhorses at the end.

Top 10

1) 1981/1982
2) 1978
3) 1969/1970
4) 1994/1995
5) 1999 (No Security Tour not Bridges to Babylon Tour)
6) 1989/1990
7) 2005-2007
8) 1997/1998
9) 2002/2003
10) 1975/1976

Really? 1969 3rd and 1972 and 1973 not worthy of mention? That's certainly interesting. Do you also think Bridges to Babylon is their best album and EOMS and Sticky Fingers are their worst?

Concerning the albuns. Of course, Sticky Finger is better than BtB. But tour is different than album.
