Now Ladies & Gentlemen, then Marquee 71?

I truely doubt it. It's one of their VERY very worst performances of the 1969-1973 era. There's very few "lackluster performances from those years, but Marquee 1971 is one of them. Jagger doesn't think it's up for snuff. And since it's in the hands/ownership of Rolling Stones Records, and not ABKCO (like "Rock & Roll Circus" ) .....he (Jagger) can call the shots.

But even a bad performance of the 69-73 era is great, but I hope they have/want many more and better live performances from that era (to) release.

Now you sound like those maniac Brian Jones fans! There's just no other conclusion to be drawn: the Marquee shows are among the very worst shows they have done, and certainly should not be released officially in any way.

Mathijs

Nah,I disagree (hopefully I wont be outcast for it! HA HA) but historically its important AND honestly I can't come to a fair conclusion on what kind of performance it is musically since the only way we've heard it is with that godawful mix!! Hopefully the original tapes would be available for remixing- I would love to be able to hear Keiths guitar for example. Then again after I heard it you may be rightI might not want to !! (but would like to know)

Maybe I am such kind of maniac, who knows. But this Love In Vain belongs to one of my favourites:

Suckin In the 70's

Oh come on Mathijs, get off it, it's not that bad, it's certainly watchable. However, because of it's quality and length, I can't see releasing it by itself, but as part of a larger package, I think it would make a nice bonus. I don't think it's as bad as the Who's Kilburn performance, certainly not any worse.

I'm of the opinion that everything should be released though. I'm a fan, and if they did it I want to see/hear it, at least once, regardless of the quality.

good point & attitude... +1
but consider most of the people know the Stones because of "Angie"...

was marquee filmed on film? i don't tink so...i don't like this perfomance so much. mick looks a litte bit bored and they don't sound powerful. the leeds performance is much better in my opinion.

Marquee 71 (BBC), Leeds 71 etc etc, ...
with Sticky Fingers Deluxe, perhaps ...

No, it is indeed not a great performance. Rather, release some of the shows that were recorded in 1971 on multi-track.

I don't think they would, for the reason they probably don't want to be reminded of it, what with the Marquee sign obstructing the stage that the owner wouldn't take down, Keith as a result threatening the owner of the club with his guitar, amongst other things that went wrong, weren't the audience thrown out into the street at one point?

Nevertheless, I do like the performance, even though as some posters have said, it isn't the best performance of that era, which I agree. I do like the performances of "Dead Flowers" and "Brown Sugar" on it, if I remember rightly the camera cuts to Keith at the "needle & the spoon" line in Dead Flowers, which I always found funny.

You must remember too that there were two shows filmed of this( one rehearsal and one with full aud although i think some of the rehearsal footage ended up in the b'cast??) Naturally at the rehearsal they may not have been as up?

I like to hear/see everything, as well, from *those years* - but we're talking about an official release here.....and there are SO few official & retrospective releases from Rolling Stones. Rarer than hens teeth. So saying yes to Marquee 1971, would mean saying no to something else. THey'd probably say to themselves.....: "Ladies & Gentlemen and Marquee 1971.....yes, that's enough - no more vault releases from the Taylor years" - it's well covered allready.

Nah I don't think they'll ever release this and they shouldn't. It's not a good performance.

If they released this they might as well release a soundboard of Philadelphia '81 and a dvd of L.A. 7/11/75.

It was a TV broadcast.

The band didnt allow it to be shown in the UK as they werent happy with the performance.

I think that should answer the question as to whether they'll ever release it.

Then again, they werent happy with Rock n Roll Circus either...so I guess if we wait long enough, anything's possible - especially as there's nothing else from 1971.

There is a pattern with the Stones and their older video recordings - in that when it comes to release or broadcast, they were never happy with their performances. Perhaps they should've spent more time rehearsing!

No.

No.

I love the 1971 Satisfactions the "best". I'm sure everybody in the audience thought: Hey, what kind of new song is that? until Mick starts to sing.

Yeah average performance but a nice I Got The Blues makes it worthwhile to watch.

If you have it in good quality (unlike the YT clips) most numbers certainly aren't bad but nice to see and listen to. Taylor playing concentrated, Richards laughing, Jagger just Jagger and a nice little place/audience.

This is the last known video of Keith playing his original Ampeg Dan Armstrong, correct? For that reason alone is should be released.

I've always liked 'Dead Flowers' from this recording. The lead/harmony vocals are much better balances than the Leeds recording. I guess it helps when Keith sings into the microphone. Interesting that someone mentions they should have rehearsed more. I have a DVD of the show and several songs are rehearsals.

Theres two versions of this show. One rehearsal and one show in front of a live audience. As I've said earlier the mix is just so bad-Keith virtually is gone from Let It Rock so a remastred and remixed audio would be great. Theres a couple of B & W clips of Brown Sugar ansd Bitch floating around with a lot better sound-wish the entire show was available like that!

true dat. i've had on vhs for many years and have not much bothered with it all.

on the other hand my boot copy of l&G vid has been played about, say, two hundred million four hundred thousand and 8 times..,. so faahhh

my vhs of L&G is dreadful but my 4 reels dvd version is quite good and more than just watchable quality, its EX quality IMO

Still live is the worst live album, and it's official released
