Just a little example right to better shape what I mean when talking about 'complete' collections... got right now a genuine British export Satanic fully covered up for Portugal. Maybe you consider this a minor entry, but I'm glad ti add this wonderful brick to our ever growing wall. Let's keep on Rolling!

Luca, we seams to have different definitions on what a complete collection is, and that is perfectly ok. It is up to each collector to do his own definition.
As I am collecting UK pressed Decca LP's, I do have four steps / versions in my definition of a complete collection:
1. One copy of all Stones LP's pressed in UK by Decca in the 60's and 70's
2. One mono and one stereo copy of all LP's pressed in UK by Decca in the 60's and 70's
3. One non-boxed logo and one boxed logo of all known mono and stereo LP's pressed by UK Decca in the 60's and 70's. That would be four LP's of Let It Bleed for example
4. Level 3 + all export Uk Decca pressed LP's but on London label
I have reached level four and I know of only one more collection in the world that is on level four and complete. So level 4 is my most detailed definition of a complete collection
Then if you would like to add all minor label and sleeve versions, then we end up with a thousand different label and sleeve combinations and such a collection is impossible to build. No one even has a full complete catalog of all that is existing....

Sounds like an amazing collection. I WANT to thank you for your website as I use it often when researching a possible 60's Stone LP...you should publish a book!

And don't forget to check some US Satanic from the 70s: NPS-2, but mono matrices...

Found right now! After so many years I’ve been chasing for it, I finally got a second and previously unreported label variation for the U.K. export NOW!
Now, the want-list is a little bit shorter.
An endless journey...

With just one copy known (in Lancaster, PA), I’ve found a second one of hyper rare/ impossible ALL-BLACK vinyl of the US 12” promo Hot Stuff/ Crazy Mama. It’s on its way, the editing is not over yet. Those who want to get a pictures, please, email me provately.

I only have two vinyl LP's saved from Several Hundred (over 1000) LPs that I donated. Two amidst Dozens and Dozens of Classics.
One is "Liver Than You'll Ever Be" that came with a blank white album slick,
and a label that says "Rutgers Student Union."
I had it before Ya Yas was a reality; and also it was the very first bootleg album of any kind I had ever seen.

I do believe the success of Liv'R was the main impetus for getting Ya-Ya's out.
I have a book called "Great White Wonders", which is a reference to the white sleeve that bootlegs used to come in...and I believe it indicated Dylan was the first widely bootlegged artist.

just found this at flea market in Paris this week-end
not sure if it's very valuable but hard to find anyway
from mozambique
only worth for the black label and the credits written on the back of the sleeve ( on the stairs) rather than on the insert

I think it's unlikely that Live'r was the main impetus for the release of Ya-Ya's. It came out in December '69 and the Stones started mixing Ya-Ya's in January '70, the Stones owed Decca one more album under their contract and there was no way they were going to give them any new material and a live album is the ideal contract filler.

Well, it was a long time ago that I read that reference, however the dates you mention I think would support my assertion. On the other hand, what you say about owing Decca one more album also makes sense. Perhaps it was more a situation where they were motivated to 'rush release' the album of live material because of the surprising success of the bootleg, but that the live album was going to happen regardless?
