According to Bill Wyman it happened. Still, I have my doubts, but what do I know

The setlist documented in Robert Greenfield's article "Goodbye Great Britain" does not list "Can't You Hear Me Knocking". The rest is accurate including the two song encore.

According to Bill (and Keith?) CYHMK was tried out as well, but fell apart, supposedly...

It's true. There was this article from a journalist traveling with the Stones on these gigs (was it for NME? I forgot) who mentioned this set, and Jagger states in the interview that CYHMK and WH fell apart, that the audience didn't know how to react to it. Then Wyman has commented on it, and Keys as well.

Mathijs

Bobby Keys goes into great detail in his autobiography about how CYHMK fell apart at the end, but prior to that, it worked well. He said Jagger swore never again.

Shocking that no recordings of any kind have surfaced from the gig.............

Kick me like you did before
I can't even feel the pain no more
Rocks Off, 1972

I don't know (and I'm no expert), but could be their best set list ever...

And dear god, let that collapsed "Can't You Hear Me Knocking?" circulate some day...

Looks like a part of the standard Licks club show setlist

Yeah, but to think that how fresh the set list was at the time, no concept of 'war horses' or any hints of nostalgia in a horizon yet. If we take the oldie "Satisfaction" and Berry numbers out, all the rest of the songs were from three previous albums (plus the singles)... I don't know if they would play a similar set 30/40 years later is such a great thing...

Correct.
And to think they played a similar setlist some 30 odd years just goes to show what a wonderful era this period was.
The best..

impossible...no You Got Me Rockin'!!!

He he, it was a joke, Doxa

However, judging from Leeds, the Marquee and the bootlegs I've heard from 1971, I would say that the band was even sloppier and more tired-sounding back then than today.

I really want to hear WH and CYHMK, not to mention SFTD from the Newcastle show, though

No joking here, man, this is serious stuff!

But yeah, from the base I have heard, they were rather sloppy and tired-sounding then (there is variance in that, as well), but even that has a charm of its own, and they played brand new songs for the first time, and played the old ones a bit differently (the horn arrangements, etc.). But still it looks like that they treated the short tour with rather 'couldn't care less' attitude. According to Bobby Keys they didn't bother much to rehearse, and seemingly treated the gigs with a sort of 'see what happens' attitude. Probably teh gigs were the rehearsals (that's what total pros do...). And probably them leaving England had something to do with their mindset, there being a kind of melancholic or lifeless feeling, especially in Keith (and if Keith is not totally 'on', the whole band suffers from that).

I agree. However, a part of the problem (for me) with the 1971 shows is the sound, and the guitar sound in particular. Clean and muddy with no crunch at all. Luckily, they fixed that problem for the STP the coming year
