My DVR picked this one up the other night and I gave it a look. Hold up well. Some random thoughts:
- Love the opening scene where Continental Drift is finishing up and the band comes on stage before the curtain goes up. Charlie does his Cotton Club wiggle, Ronnie's all nervous energy, Mick like a prize fighter about to enter the ring and Keith transforming into Keef.
- God damn Bill Wyman could play some bass.
- It's incredible how little Mick has aged in 23 years.
- Where was Lisa? The two girls singing w Bernard were both hot but not in Lisa's league vocally. Did she have a schedule conflict w the Urban Jungle tour? I seem to recall she and Cindy Mazzelle w Bernard on the American leg.
- Keith's solo in Happy was awesome. Just tore it up.
- Chuck didn't bug me near as much then as he does now.
- As great as they have sounded on this just completed tour, it's pretty apparent that this is the Mick Jagger review now and he's in complete control. At the Max recalled a time when Mick was the consummate showman but Keith really seemed to be the driving force of the rhythm on stage. Wonder how much of that is simply due to Keith's deterioration?
- There were plenty of flubbed chords/ missed cues etc. It's all part of the charm of the Stones live.
- I really liked that stage. That was probably the last big rock tour that didn't have enormous video screens.

I find that DVD shrill and overly loud, and the separation is just too clean, like when you hear a guitar solo it comes in like your hearing it on a studio CD. But this is from listening on headphones.
I prefer the sound of Let's Spend The Night Together, where the sound is all there in the middle, rather than on the right or left of your headphones like a slick stereo studio recording.
Yeah but the dvd of let's spend the night together messed up the soundQuote

The highlight is Keith's ability to play guitar licks without even touching the strings. Amazing.

So you prefer a mono soundtrack over a well mixed live stereo recording? Too each his own I guess.

Why does Chuck bug you? Because that's the "cool" thing to say?

Regardless of what you actually think, it is in fact the 'cool' thing to say.

You mean with the "invisible" fingers on the fretboard, so that the guitar appears to be "playing itself"?
Just one more reason why I like Let's Spend The Night Together so much better.
