Okay then: has this stuff been mastered properly or are we getting that "brickwalled" sound again?

Brickwalled.
Forget this show then.

Where have you been? All releases (95% anyway) the past 10-15 years have been brickwalled, live and studio, from most any band. So that means you shouldn't buy anything ever again.

Dynamics is soooo 1990's... ;-). Kidding. It's a conspiracy I think, that everything at least in popular music is brickwalled! True art and passion is long gone due to the consumers mass or something.

As for the Stones releases:
There is no warmth anymore on any record by the Stones after Bridges To Babylon. Probably due to no dynamics.

Fantastic album !

Really? I won't give my opinion here ... nor elsewhere. Enjoy it and to each his/her own.

I'll stick with the new live 1971 releases, with the real thing.

Far better than any 1964-2014 live performance by far.

Best versions ever.*

* before 2016 off course

This album is definitely ON course. And, yes, many of these versions are indeed the best ever.

I have not downloaded it yet, and really excited and curious about perspectives. please dont deny me the Reality of it

Well, maybe the Echoplex club show from 2012 see's the light of day, I'd love to hear "Love in Vain"

Yeah, let the kleer truth ring out loud about I Got The Blues, Sister Morphine, Moonlight Mile, Dead Flowers, Brown Sugar and the other brilliant songs on this release.

This smells like Hyde Park again. Rip your fans off for a £10 download and then release it on CD a few months later.

yeah, I can hold out for a few months. If they don't release it by then, I'll go for the download

RipThisBone:
You may be dead next week, hope not ofcourse, but why not spend a lousy 10 for this great album?

Thanks for the artwork!!!

Well, you asked for it. I listened to it all, with growing disgust and with the biggest effort. It's one big, bad parody, especially after having heard the 1971 live releases.

You are a parody. Let the fans enjoy this, please

The reality of it is, the stones are nearing the end of an enormous and glorious career. They are probably on their last full blown large scale tour. And they started off in LA doing a small show doing all of Sticky Fingers. And it sounds fantastic. Yes, they are older. Rusty around the hinges, but to listen to the sheer joy they are emoting performing one of their best albums is infectious. Perfect? NO. Why should it be. Exciting? Yes, for sure. It is an emotional listening experience, where The Rolling Stones are taking great pride in playing such a powerful classic album. Ronnie really shines. For not having played on the original album, he clearly pays his respects and injects his personality as well. As many have said, he is really playing well on this tour. Better than I have heard him with The Rolling Stones. He seems to be finding his own inspiration and playing more like he did with The Faces. Its iTunes, so it is not a full on fidelity release. For ten dollars. But it is quite fun to listen to and very well performed. It is a tease. And I can't wait to hear this on vinyl!

Just finished listening for the first time. Wow, what a great show! They almost nailed it a 100%. Now I know why bv rates this show among the best he has seen. They filled the rare played numbers with fresh new life, not just reproducing them. Seems that the shows with can't turn you loose as encore are gonna be really special ones...

A few more thoughts:

- absolute highlights --> sisters morphine & you gotta move

- also great --> dead flowers, wild horses,can't you hear me knocking, I got the blues, moonlight mile

- great licks and solo from Ronnie on dead flowers, great singing from mick, same with wild horses

- at can't you hear me knocking is miss a little Keith power chords in the verses, he's more licking

- mick is a little bit struggling to hit the high notes on I got the blues, at least his voice doesn't sound relaxed in that part, it sounds a bit strained

- on the opposite mick sings moonlight mile better then in 1999

- bitch is boring. I would like to hear it more guitar driven like in the early 70'

- brown sugar: really good version, but I can't hear it anymore. Just seen it live too often

- sway, better then on the bigger bang tour, especially micks voice, but it has not the same level as sm or igtb

- micks singing performance is all in all outstanding

- did I hear some small glitches from Charlie?

- sax is great, but I miss bobby keys

- it's a shame that only a very small audience has ever the chance to hear these great rare songs live!

Overall a striking performance, even more astonishing when you remember at what level their 2007 shows were. I couldn't imagine, that after 2007 they could ever reach such a high level again. Such a show proofs, that they can do great shows for easily more than ten years from now on.

Long live the stones

Talking about tracks that were smoking....

... Bitch was straight fire!

After listening to this release earlier this morning, now I'm listening to it again with earphones. That's a great recording of an awesome concert. The entire band is smokin', but Chuck Leavell deserves a lot of credit for his work here, especially on Dead Flowers and I Got The Blues.

Obviously, there's no way to compare this release with being there and listening to it live, but finally everybody can hear how it was to listen to I Got The Blues and Sister Morphine that night - not to mention the other songs, of course. I just mentioned these two because that's the only ones that weren't played on the Zip Code Tour yet.

Yes, it would be great if they have released the whole concert, but hey! Until now we had nothing but that short clip posted the day after the concert, and now we have the opportunity to listen to Sticky Fingers live on its entirety for the first time.

Hi, friends

all those words ... while we are waiting for mercy's link ....

thank you in advance

Some of them are among the best.
But I know plenty of great versions of those songs...
If I would compile my ''ultimate modern-era Sticky Fingers album'' it would be something like this:

Sway (Fonda)
Dead Flowers (Fonda)
Wild Horses (Twickenham 2003 ''Four Flicks'')
Sister Morphine (Amsterdam 1998)
You Gotta Move (Fonda)
Bitch (Wiltern 04.11.02 ''Four Flicks'')
Can't You Hear Me Knocking (Fonda)
I Got The Blues (Fonda)
Brown Sugar (MSG 16.01.03 ''HBO warm-up'')

If scolding is a good thing, then you're right. But I consider it as a sign of weakness. The suggestion as if I have the power to rob anyone's fun as for this show is simply ridiculous. Go ahead and enjoy it. And bless your heart.

thanks voodosebi for review, though apparently you dont stick with Reality and Truth is great to see that one can have his/her own insight and intelligence and still be joyful and enjoy the music
