Just listening to Tumbling Dice from the bootleg Brussels 73 (not the archive thing released a couple of years ago).
I just love that version, it makes the hairs on my neck stand up on end it's so electrifying and soulful. Mick is just incredible, and I love the 'Everybody needs a little help sometimes... And right now i need you' bit. Got me thinking about other great ad libs he's hit us with mid song.
What are your favourites?
'Sweeter than a sugar pie'

It's interesting that you say that because his ad libbing during Tumbling Dice on LA Friday Night from 1975 is truly awesome, I think better than the Brussels Tumbling Dice.
It also has a special connection for me because in 1976 I bought the three-album bootleg series for the same concert so I have been listening to it for 40 years! The audio quality for about half of the bootleg series is decent, including Tumbling Dice. Mick goes into another world during the repeating coda and it's just great, and the band is on fire.

Before Tumbling Dice, Hampton Roads 12-18-81, "All right Virginia, let's roll on down...shhhhhhhhhhhit, let's go. Roads, Roads, Roads, Roads, Roads...I wish I were nude!"
I remember hearing that on the radio the night of the pay-per-view...not sure about the "Roads, Roads" part (it sounds like he's saying that), but the "Wish I Were Nude" line was a classic!

At Indy in 2015, Mick did a bit of "Come on in My Kitchen" during the middle of a song--can't remember which--
but it was very cool! Keith seemed to approve.

I believe Keith took a good sip of whiskey prior to that line

It was Midnight Rambler, and the guitars played it first - Mick responded. Very cool indeed.

I was assuming that this was supposed to be about ad libs in songs that Mick was singing live.
