Actually, there are some great songs on the album - way more than on the albums later to come. The sound is dated today, of course because of the production.
Songs like SSS, ME, Terrifying, Hearts For Sale, AHYS, Continental Drift, Break The Spell and Slipping Away were more than I dared to hope for at the time.
Good album, bad production, imo.

They really played well on this tour. The Vegas haters will blast it, but damn they played great. I was blown away - so much better than the 81 shows and I saw two of each.
I disagree. Each 81 show was unique. The 89 tapes are like clones : you listened to one you listened to all of them. You can save some time by going straight to the Atlantic City PPV.
I pity the fans who attended 5 or 10 gigs in 1989. Their experience must have been like this :

As I remember it, nobody gave a fvck about the album -it was the Stones getting back on the road with the biggest tour ever staged. That was all that counted.
