There was never a truer title than this. It's an absolutely lifeless, soulless collection of songs. Also my least favourite Stones live album, along with Flashpoint.

Hmmm - recently got back into Love You Live, especially with the added outtakes. Don't generall listen to Stones' live albums after 1978.

This string of songs: UMT, LSTNT, Shattered, Twenty Flight Rock and Going To A Go Go..
Simply amazing. Excellently sounding, excellently performed. The Stones at their peak.
However, the sound of the Still Life-album is somewhat polished a bit too much for my likings. I like the songs from Hampton better on the Hampton live album.
I never get tired of Keith's solo on Let Me Go or Keith and Ronnie's weaving after the solo
We already have the LIVE ALBUM TALK of this one here, though: [iorr.org]

I liked it as a souvenir of the great 1981 tour - the first time I saw the Stones.
Favorite tracks from it were/are opener Under My Thumb, and covers Twenty Flight Rock, Going to a Go Go,Time is on My Side, and Just My Imagination.
Thought to be honest, haven't listened to it from start to finish in many years - probably 1982.

I know its not the Stones at their best musically but Still Life gave me more pleasure than any album ever. The atmosphere of it more than makes up for any weaknesses in the guitar or vocal department.
The video release Lets Spend The Night Together was just incredible for me at the time, i kept renting it out from the video store, i just couldn't get enough of seeing these legends up close. Finally when the video went out on release and i had it at home to play when i wanted to was the greatest feeling.
You see this is what a lot of Stones fans that are older than me don't understand. When they have this attitude that since Mick Taylor left its all been down hill. Well it just doesn't feel that way when you are 18 years old and you see this band playing live in 81'. I'd never seen anything like Mick and Keith in my life before. They were larger than life in 81' 82' they were beyond words and they made such an impression and influence that changed peoples lives for the better ( or not if you copy Keith to the extent i did lol )
I lived and breathed this band because of Still Life and the video release of LSTNT, and of course albums like Rolled Gold and Tattoo You that came out just prior to Still Life.

Thanks for reminding me! Still Life is 35...so I am a Stones fan
for 35 years now (out of 48...).
When it came out I was (by chance) entering my record store
when they played it. When Going To A GoGo started I was hooked.
I bought it and still love every second of it. Circle was
closed when M+K+R+C signed it in London last year.
