So what do we have to make guesswork on?

- It's a Ronnie-era show
- Bill and Charlie are the rhythm section
- We have a photo of the Detroit 75-show (reel on stonesarchive.com)
- We have a Alamo, Texas 75-picture that they use as a FB-profile pic

Anything else?

I'm thinking Detroit (or maybe Texas?) 1975.

For now, I will cling to the hope that they will release something that will be a good example of the tour, if it is a '75 show...

Same here. Plus, I don't give up my hopes for a comprehensive El Mocambo set!

Also, I am not really sure if Detroit '75 would be THAT bad... It's difficult to judge it from the available mono soundboard because the mix is so uneven. Judging from the boots, I always thought that the Brussels show that got officially released last year could hold no candle against the famous KFBH show, but what a surprise it was to listen to it in glorious professionelly mixed stereo!

Probably Detroit '75 (if it's indeed their next release) will be a similar revelation...who knows?

One might want to point out that we have pic of a Detroit show. They did
two shows there. Another thing; the date listed on the box says '7/26/75',
but they played in Bloomington on that date

Wasn't the big distinction about 75 shows that there are only a few where they actually play luxury?

yeah, they didn't play it often...but that's not the BIG DISTINCTION about the tour, though. there are many more bigger distinctions, as we well know.

They played Sure The One You Need as well. Might be the only solo-song from a Stone ever performed?

yep.

another bigger distinction:

first (and only, unless you count '76...i don't) tour where a sideman in the band got to play a mini-set in mid-show.

and there are more.

We got Wyman's dancing, and Ron and Keith taking turns on bass on FF and SFTD (the latter turned into a trainwreck in NYC if memory serves).

More distinctions?

they did Don't Look Back on the Licks Tour as well, if that counts (it is a cover)

The best way to represent TOTA is with a bluray video, imo. Then we can finally see the lotus stage open up in HD. Now that would be something.

we can't count that...it's a smokey robinson tune and it was never released on a stones solo album. thanks for entering, though...

We also got to hear Dance Little Sister and Cherry Oh Baby.
Sympathy For The Devil and Rocks Off made some rare appearances...

and then of course Sure The One You Need

Seems that RS camp really monitor this site. There was not a single twitt since last Gazza's angry message.

at least they are not dropping hints like "It is a show from North America" or anything.

If Mick reads this he might, out of spite, unleash the dreadful 1975-08-08 Buffalo show on us!

That one is in the planning, though it won't be a google-download, but a CD box set including a limited edition piece of paper drenched in acid

Good! I'll buy for the paper!

How many people worldwide care about this?

I would guess 30.000 to 35.000 overall.

If you look at the preview files on stonesarchive.com, they have a listen count and the higher ones are around the 24.000 mark. I guess this is the best indicator we have. Of course, this is only for international downloads, as the US sales come from Google Music, so that's why I assume 30 to 35k all in all.

No big deal for them than. I mean that brought in maybe good cash through Google, but the other 25k people paid 10 dolllars, so in total maybe half a million dollars of revenue at best. Deduct costs and you won't be left with much.

Its probably a respectable profit because what how much overhead can there be? There is NO mfg or shipping costs and promotion was a bare minimum...

Its impossible to remember the Alamo's basement.

What about Fort Collins 75?
Dunno what Elton might think about it, but it'S a cracker to me !

Or the Toronto show - brilliant show - love the "Tumbling Dice" from that gig !

The Ron Wood era began with that. IMO I belive they'll publish something where they have the audio & video.
Makes no sense to promote just one thing, doesn't it?

Or maybe the STU farewell gig in London?
ElMo would be great although I doubt it since it's been partially released.
Don't you think they'd put more of it on LYL if their performance was that good?
Only 4 tunes? Makes no sense to me otherwise....

Wasn't there a bit of the Washington 75 Gig on Pro Shot Film? Saw Honky Tonk Women of it - good quality...

Need more ?

Cheerio,

Fort Collins 1975 is one of the finest RS performances I know of

When it comes to the Largo footage.... that's not filmed by the Rolling Stones, but the in-house cameras at Capitol Center Arena; so RS proabably doesn't even have those video reels. Several videos from that venue has gotten into circulation when it comes to other artists, but not the RS 1975 concert, apart from one song. Those Largo concerts weren't too good anyway, btw

How dare you

Ok, I'll admit, Dance Little Sister'S great, and the beginning of Crazy Mama is super cool, and I love Worried 'bout you - but the rest ?
