This is a great performance by Mick Taylor and Trevor Lawrence on Sax as Bobby Keys had just been sacked.

Perhaps their best performance of this song!

i'm partial to several '72 versions and some of the winter '73 perfs, too. i like trevor's work on it, but it was often tighter and more dramatic on these earlier renditions.

I like the raw and short R&R Cricus version the best. Keith's guitar playing is ace on that.

mick does something slightly different with the melody on the chorus line on the circus version that i've always liked...

The best version has ALWAYS been the studio version for me.

Yes. Amazing performance. Really good. That is a good example among plenty others of how The rolling Stones sound the nights they are the greatest rock and roll band in the world.
Rock and roll,
Mops

I am partial to this one, but why quibble? No sax solo. It's all Taylor taking you on a musical journey to Jagger's approval. As Jagger said...Taylor gave him something to bang off of (or some such words). You can get that from this performance. Thanks to Kleermaker for this post.

Circus is best for me. They did it too slow otherwise.

I also prefer the live versions with no sax solo. But the ultimate for me is the studio version. Beautifully decadent end to the 60s.

Just like it should be, imo.

They're all good but the version from Let's Spend The Night Together movie with Ronnie's smokin' solo gets overlooked.

Ronnie's also smokin' on Love You Live.

1975 and 1981 were both good years for this song...damn near 15 minutes on LA Friday...

something bad happened to the rhythm of the song after 1973 - and I'm trying to blame Ronnie for that, but I can't....

It's best to blame Ollie Brown for such things...less inflammatory...

well, specifically I was gonna pin the blame on Spiro Agnew, not Nixon himself.

I remember listening to the Love You Live version and the crowd started singing along in the chorus. I reckon this was a turning point not only for the live version of this song but the Stones live as a whole. The thrill had gone-at least compared to the 69-73 live period. I hasten to point out that my view has nothing to do with Taylor v Wood etc. Or Spiro Agnew. Just the whole feel of the live show changed.

Crowds got considerably larger...that changed some intimacy dynamics...

had Spiro been nicer to nattering nabobs of negativism none of this might have happened...

I think it got too slow in 75, but they made it nice and funky again in '81.

Amazing! I especially love the little riff he plays from about 7:15 to 7:35 to ease back into the verse.

If this is "noodling", I'll order up a big, steaming bowl of these noodles.

This seems to be the Brussells Affair version, the "Other" Show that day... I'm glad the Stones finally released this last year... I WONDER if the Video will ever see the light of day???

Taylor's whole presense on these recording is impecable, almost "God Like" - Those Stones would never achieve this level again Live

This is SilverDagger's (do I have that right?) gem of an audience recording from the 9/8/73, 1st show from Wembley. If you can't find it...let me know. Taylor has some notes in there that just shimmer. Probably Taylor's longest solo with the band.

Not better, slightly different though... that's the Beauty of Taylor... always trying to improve on something he'd already perfected... he comes out mixed a little LOWER on the released version IMHO... but his solo on YCAGWYW played on this video is better than the one we'd heard for all those years, so is Trevor's Sax solo
