More ballad than the studio version, hopefully gets in the rotation with Angie and Wild Horses.

Thanks for the upload. You're right, Keith plays surprisingly fluent and well. His playing sounds much more effortless. I find this clearly to be his best Sympathy I've seen/listened to (on videos) since 2012.
I get the impression, that Keith played in general very solid during all these three recent shows, which is great.
With Exile the performances on some of the songs outshines the songs themselves. "Torn and Frayed" and "Loving Cup" are perfect recordings, capturing The Stones in full talent. Some of this is hard for them to translate today but I applaud them trying to capture this once more for all of us.Quote

Well, someone had to. I just knew I would get bashed for any negativity but thankfully my friends here were rather gentle. Whew.
It's just that I love Loving Cup so much it was hard to see it played so soullessly. I listened to it a couple more times and couldn't find the magic that made this tune one of my favorite cuts from Exile.
As Rockman points out, it may have worked in the context of the whole show and been treat to see performed live, but as a stand alone piece of music it just didn't work, imho.
What was missing? The groove, BENT notes on Keith's guitar fills, Keith's wonderful vocal harmonies, Nicky Hopkins's tasteful piano playing and Ronnie actually contributing to the song.
But as I said, I love 'em for trying. But next time it would serve the song to have MT playing guitar and Keith singing harmony. peace
Yes great job by Keith.. I have been telling you guys for a year that Richard's has to go through an adjustment period after playing so high for years. At first it's easy to become overly self-conscious but time fixes that. If Mick Taylor had been on stage more often we would never get the breakout that's coming soon from KR!Quote

"You know I play a bad guitar" is no lie. When Mick tries to duplicate Taylors or Richards acoustic tracks he falls short. Always rushed, playing good acoustic in those circumstances is not as easy as it appears. THe acoustic parts on Exile are very well placed and in the groove. I won't slam them for trying, one performance may become magic. Keith has begun working his playing more vertically and he's doing some real guitar these days. He went into the bridge early after the first verse, that's the clam spree, still he has an inventive grip using an authentic EXILE Gibson I believe. What's Ronnie playing? He sounds non committal and need to play clear open chords. Maybe next time, I'm in no hurry.Quote

Yeah DoomandGloom, you've got it right. Loving Cup was so perfect on the record it's hard to beat, especially live. But I still think they could have done better than the Perth show. They certainly rehearsed it enough. I think Mick driving the live song with his guitar and vocal and Keith kinda taking a back seat hurt the overall performance. peace

Oh yeah, that would be May 2013 then (Anaheim 2). Before that, it was 1990.
