The studio version of Neighbours was awful, with the drums banging away too loudly and with no personality or uniqueness. Charlie dropped the ball on this one, but overall he is certainly one of the best rock drummers in the world.

It's ok, but nowhere near the 81/82 live versions or the original, imo.
I like it better when Keith plays the rhythm and Ronnie takes the lead on this one.
Did they play it in a different key at the Olympia?

I really love this version - thanks for posting. I love what and how Keith is playing - and Mick's
vibe on it. For me, the 1981 live versions (and I am not a live Stones expert, at all) tend to be
too manic/frantic and any nuances of the song are lost.

Being a drummer, I enjoy the studio version, as well as most live versions because of the drums...Come to think of it, my opinion might be slightly biased! Regardless, any version is better than that awful 'Black Limousine'! Can't stand that three second intro!
