Ya Yas is better. But Leeds is still damn good, especially the expanded version.

I thought the original six-song Leeds LP was perfection, but the more they expanded it, the more its original power was diminished.

Live At Leeds is great. Get Your Ya-Ya's Out is great.
but we all know Take No Prisoners is the greatest live album ever

Take No Prisoners is Lou Reed as gay Broscht belt standup comedian, funny as hell in small doses, and not for the squeamish or intolerant. "If you write as good as you talk, nobody reads ya!" "Who tightened this microphone? It must be Godzilla! ... I better grow an inch or meet a boyfriend." "I spend a year on a record so I can get a B+ from some @#$%& in the Village Voice? ... What does Robert Christgau do in bed? Is he a toef-cker?" "Which Lou am I today? Lou number one or Lou number five?"

Makes me wonder what live sound Mick with just Keith, Charlie and Bill might
have produced ( I suppose a bootleg or two of those notorious Brian-less
concerts might be out there ).

Prior to Mick Taylor Joining the Stones the most important guitar in the early Stones was Keith Richards. He played almost all guitar solos
Until Mick Taylor. The Last Time is a Richards solo. Time is on my Side is a Richards Solo. It's all over now was a Richards Solo.
All the Chuck Berry style songs Richards played the Solo. The exception were the blues song where Brian Jones played in opening turning's.

I believe that "those notorious Brian-less concerts" are probably a figment of Keith's imagination... True, Keith may have been the only guitar during several songs at concerts, but judging by the 1966-1967 bootlegs that we've heard, Brian more than made up for things in other ways, & until I hear audio evidence I remain unconvinced that Brian was too out of it to play.

No, it's documented in several places that Brian missed a bunch of shows due to illness on the 64 and 65 American tours.
