Nine times out of ten, Respectable is a bit of a mess live. Not sure why. I think it lacks a killer opening riff.

They should open with Brown Sugar, but it has to be a tight 3 1/2 minute version of the song."

Every warhorse should be scaled down to three and a half minutes. They waste so much time at the end of the show with extended versions of all the warhorses. It's a great way to fill up time and not have to learn more songs at the top of the show so I get why they do it. But I've had enough of the 6 minute JJFs.....

They have to open with something fast and rocking, with a great guitar riff as intro.
If they open with Brown Sugar (First time since Columbus 2005?) they have to play a fast, rocking version. Not anything like the slow, lazy-ass Brown Sugar which they've plagued us with since 2012.
Also, the loud and infuriating fills by Lisa is a no-no for an opening version of Brown Sugar. No ''Wooo's'' after the chorus please. Mick has to sing this song all by himself if it opens the show.
And if Brown Sugar is played the right way, it is the best opening track they've ever had.

Brown Sugar/Bitch like 72/73 would be awesome, but at this point, I'm afraid the extended "yeah, yeah, whoooo" call and response with the audience is something that the band relies on as a closer or encore number. I suspect they won't want to lose that

The right way is slow and hard-rocking, not fast. Try the album and Altamont.
