For me it would have to be Connection & You Got the Silver from the Shine A Light CD versus their original recorded studio version.

I can think of four...

Midnight Rambler on GET YER YA-YA'S OUT
Hot Stuff on LOVE YOU LIVE
When the Whip Comes Down on SUCKING IN THE SEVENTIES
Just My Imagination on STILL LIFE

many, many... most of their songs... depends on year and tour, mostly.

Sweet Black Angel... Love In Vain... Angie: they just need electricity
Midnight Rambler, of course... harder... blues opera, wow...
Live With Me, a special one live... stronger, too
Sympathy for the Devil from 1969... absolutely...
You Got Me Rocking, it's meant as a sing-along...
Worried About You, it was just @#$%& brilliant live

those first came to my mind.
the other way: Brown Sugar was never so cool live as in studio, what else...
Stray Cat Blues, Sway, etc

The big ones (much better than studio versions)
Street Fighting Man from Ya Ya's
Jumping Jack Flash from the Gimme Shelter movie (taken from the 1st show 11/28/69 in NYC)

Better, but not a huge improvement
Carol from Ya Ya's
Honkey Tonk Women from Ya Ya's (or the Gimme Shelter movie, both were brilliant)
I'm Free from San Diego show 1969 (the arrangement of it from the early shows on that tour was great)

Pretty much a tie with the studio version
No Expectations from Hyde Park
Gimme Shelter from the Philadelphia show 7/21/1972 - blistering Mick Taylor work, but does lose out on Merry Clayton

Finally, it never was a studio release, but The Sun Is Shining from Altamont would be hard to top.

Dead Flowers is so much better live than on the studio version. MT never ceases to amaze me on this performance.

Satisfaction from Gimme Shelter film -- the smoking solo and the outro vocals keep it raunchy.

JJF from just about any era. The riff just gets thicker and thicker.

Rather than individual versions of songs as people have said here, I mostly prefer the live versions on a whole, great as the studio versions are. I listen to more live performances than studio versions of songs. That is one of the reasons I like the Stones, because they're such a strong live band.

So many but you need the original.Otherwise you can,t compare them.

And Marchbaby,The intro from You got the silver in Sal is completely messed up by Ronnie .He didn,t rehaerse it -Wrong chords stucture-progression.

Midnight Rambler, Live With Me, Love In Vain on Ya-Yas all vastly exceed their studio versions. So do the two Chuck Berry tunes.

If you count unofficial releases, I have to add "Dancing With Mr. D", "Angie", and "You Can't Always Get What You Want" from Brussels '73.

Seriously....is there a cut on Ya-Yas that isn't better than the studio version?...I think every single song is a notch better...

Yes! I was about to add to the above sentence "So does "Sympathy", so does "Stray Cat Blues"...etc.

Interesting choices, and I agree with them all.

Of course I will add:
Midnight Rambler
Out of control
Dead Flowers

I know these have all been mentioned but I concur they're usually even better live.

Next to many of the tracks mentioned already, I particularly like "The Last Time" from the NS album whereas I can't be bothered by the original studio version.

Someone mentioned Live With Me as well; I would like to know if a listenable live version of that song is available (you know, not those one-note staccato vocals, and with some rhythm guitar that at least vaguely matches the original).

WOW. Are you serious? Those are atrocities on Shine A Light! It's amazing they were even considered to be on the album yet alone put on the album and even in the damn movie!!!!
