" Is this Sympathy disc the same as the

Yup. Same one. They put the 3D insert and the disc into a clear plastic sleeve which is hard to get out of the box. Also, the two sided poster has an excellent shot on one side apparently taken backstage at Hyde Park and the otherside looks to be a stageshot from the 1972 American tour which is a petty complaint I realize, but irksome nonetheless.

Are the single box mixes the same as
those on the London Years SACD?

Actually the shot on the back of the poster is from the Stones April 1971 Top of the Pops "Brown Sugar" promo.

The DVD is what makes this last instalment of the singles box sets essential, a hint of things to come we hope.

Although what the risable Neptunes/ Norman Cook remixes of Sympathy for the Devil add to the collection, let alone the Neptunes remix Sympathy video is very questionable.

Yeah maybe I'll copy the dvd from a buddy
and forget about the rest, especially if are
the same mixes as on the London Years SACD................

Hi.
The Brown Sugar/Bitch single. They should have used the UK/France pressing with "Let it rock" Why not? Maybe because Allan Klein don't own "Let it rock"?
Anybody knows?

Have a nice day.

"forget about the rest, especially if are

I believe they are. I am now preparing to get rid of my original "London Years" box which is rendered irrelevant by either the new version of itself, or these box sets. The sound on the original is abysmal compared to the new SACD hybrids.
