I saw them play "I Just Want To See His Face" last week at the show in Philadelphia. It was phenomenal. It must have been 12 minutes long with Rich Robinson singing lead instead of Chris. The backing singers were great replicating the sound from Exile. Download this. You won't be disappointed.

Do you have a link where I can find these?

They play the Stones songs much better than the Stones themselves these days.
And that hurts....

Imho it's the opposite : these covers display the limit of the BC's talents. CR's thin voice is just not comparable to Jagger's. To me musically there's ONE undefinable thing missing, the thing that would make say "Holy sh!t! That's as good as the Stones themselves".
It just ain't as good... nice hat tips to the Stones's genius but nothing more than inoffensive covers. Maybe that's the difference between creating and duplicating.
That is just plain ridiculous. Limited talent? So to be able to release two phenomenal discs in a row (Warpaint and Before the Frost) and then nightly inject a variety of covers in your live set list from Dylan, The Beatles, Parsons, obscure folk numbers, Little Feat, The Stones, etc... displays a wide range of virtuosity and masterful understanding of music. And boy you are way off base to say Chris Robinson's voice is thin? Ok, you may not like them and you may not like the sound of his voice, but he is anything but thin vocally. The guy sings from the chest and uses his diaphragm to give a powerful vocal performance that is anything from thin! These guys are one of the hardest working American Rock groups out there at this point, keeping the thrill of live rock alive... then only thing thin is your argument.Quote
