I always liked Ron Wood's guitar solo on YCAGWYW, I think it's the best he ever played. Apart from that there's nothing new under the sun, imo.

I had read that YCAGWYW from Love You Love was taped from a show in Paris, just before the show Keith was informed of a miscarriage and he played the evocative solo in YCAGWYW....I not saying this is correct, just checking in if this is a Stones ‘Urban Legend’ or a fact.

I don't think Keith played that solo, if that's what you mean?

Ronnie does a badass tremolo job on YCAGWYW;
I bet you Ronnie burned down his guitar pick of that solo.The smell of the plastic burning against the strings is a fine moment when one rockandrolls a solo that way.
Fantastic job Woody.

This was the first time I thought of Vegas Stones.

I HATE to think of the Vegas shows you attend! LYL is rough and sloppy, hardly slick and 'produced'...

There was just something about it. Ya Yas was/is one of the top five greatest live albums ever made by any rock group. An LYL was only released seven years after Ya Yas. (Of course that was a long time in Stones years back then). I've come to appreciate Ronnie's playing since then, though it never soared like Taylor's, so it didn't sound like the real Stones to me. Believe me I listen to most Stones recordings continually, but there are specific albums I never have the urge to listen to, like Undercover (excepting the single), Dirty Work (excepting One Hit and Harlem Shuffle), and like LYL, excepting the El Mocambo side.

Nothing is better than GYYYOUT !

The only significant difference between Ya ya's and LyL is the lead guitarist, and
Billy Preston of course.

I somewhat disagree with that. To me it was a very different sound. The guitars were much more distorted and raunchy, and Mick's vocal style had changed quite a bit. It seemed a bit looser and sloppier than Ya Ya's but it was hot live Stones and I loved it then and now!

HTW is way better on LYL, imo.

Hot Stuff is superior to the studio version. Fantastic playing by everyone. IORR is the ultimate version. I also prefer YGM on LYL to the Ya Yas-version.

Yes totally agree
It's not that easy to play a solo on 2 chords. This one was played in Paris on the 7th of June 1976.

He played some other good ones, L.A 11th july 1975, Paris 6th June 1976........

Ronnie good solos.

1975, 1976, 1978... After...

All his solos on Ride 'Em On Down have been great on this tour, imo.

Yes, quite possibly my favorite Ronnie solo ever. He totally redeems what otherwise might have been a rather sloppy version of YCAGWYW.

I was so disappointed by the album. Except for the El Mocambo side it's barely listenable. This was the first time I thought of Vegas Stones. Then Some Girls came out and I never listened to Love You Live for many years. I tried to listen to it just a few years back but it hasn't aged well either.

I would rather tentatively suggest that those three sides represent a glam rock face of the Rolling Stones.

I hate the keyboards on tumbling dice and ycagwyw.
Except of that, for me its the best live album ever. I like even the war horses. Great jjf!

I bracket Love You Live with Wipe The Windows by The Allmans - both are hidden gems of albums, and both are live albums that follow illustrious peers at the time, i.e Ya Yas and At The Fillmore.

I adore both LYL, and Wipe, feeling that they should never have had the bad press that they received.
