ok i'm not a gifted in explaining things or have great knowlege on musical terms but here goes.i'm not saying the stones suck in concert but it seems like over the past 20 yrs the stones try to make their live set. sound simular to the original studio versions. this is ok if the studio version doesn't have alot of added overdubs or session musicians . but for the most part it seems some songs lose their power when they do it. an example is sympathy for the devil. the studio version is awesome of course but i also love the way the stones performed it during the 69 tour up until 1975-76. i also miss the fact that the live versions would have loud guitar sound and the music was faster than studio versions. what caused this change, age? loss of agression? perfectionism?

Jagger taking over. He likes these big tours of stadiums to be a "jukebox" of the Stones oldies. They don't really play like a band like they did on the 69, 72, 78 tours. Just a big production. I do think Stripped captured some guys trying to play like a band.....that's a gem. But those stadium tour renditions of their greatest hits are not very inspiring.

LeedsLungs71, wasn't there a tour in 1970? And in 1973? Not to speak about 1971, which is in your own moniker? Those tours belong to the very best of the Stones tours imho.

I lump them together....yes, i live in the U.S. LOL
Well, that's a bit U.S. centric, I must admit. Is our IORR community becoming like Shidoobie Land??

But still. Many versions of songs, even warhorses, sound different to the album cut. Rough Justice didn't sound like the album version. Same with j j flash, IORR and many others.
