Speaking of Love You Live, Tumbling Dice doesn't sound the same as the other rockers on sides 1, 2 & 4. It almost sounds similar to the El macambo side to my ears. Does anybody know what show it is from?

Thanks for the info!

«Reworked» also means simply being shortened down/edited, like with Fingerprint File, YCAGWYW and Hot Stuff.

SFTD is pretty damn good on this one and is easily the second best of the four live versions released.

Surely there are more than four officiall released versions? BTW, which on is the best, Ya Ya's or Rock'n'Roll Circus?

Yeah - Sympathy on Flashpoint is great! Good enough to overlook my personal disdain for things like pre-recorded drum loops! They played awesomely on top of it, so all is forgiven!

The El Mocambo side is great but nothing beats this!

It's Only Rock and Roll

SFTD and IORR are the absolute highlights of this great album for me....

IORR is so good it knocks the original recorded version for six!

What a drag it is gettin' old

I will listen closely later today but is it really reworked? Reworked perhaps but no overdubs right?

And for me, I thought it was a pointless mess, except for the El Mocambo side. I was very happy when Some Girls came out and made me forget Love You Live.

I thought it was great at the time of it's release from start to finish.
After the mostly dull Black and Blue (give or take a few tunes), it was a refreshing reminder to hear the "greatest" play some of their "greatest".
Became a "warhorse" amongst my listening during that period, and still listen to it on the rare occasion.

It's a fantastic representation of post-1969/1973 greatness with the sloppiness, overall, as well as the pre-Jagger-control years that started in 1981.

Horrible overdubs. The The Mocambo tracks are great even with overdubs but the best version of Honky Tonk Women ever and the greatest version of IORR ever as well.

I liked LYL from the first time I listened to it. It has a really cool party-down feel to it. HTW is a great opener. And also, as I'm fond of pointing out, I like the way the plastic covered CD smells.

Great memories of love you live. I was 13 when I first heard it. The El Mocambo side I played over and over while playing my guitar along with it and learning.

Historically for me; I hadn't been too into Black & Blue. I liked some of it. It wasn't a dear record to me. IORR was, tho I could get critical, I'd choose not to, because there are things on it I really totally love.

There weren't fan clubs or computers. There was nothing to gain or lose in telling anybody about what you were listening to. There was no grand feeling of let-down or disappointment if a record by someone I loved didn't particularly draw me. It's happened with almost everyone I totally respect, adore, even worshipped as Idols as a kid and still love and spend time with now...
...so there was no fan club to huff and puff about; nothing to prove to anyone about anything. No one cared if you were 'right' or 'wrong' about your tastes or inclinations; I didn't care that much myself. That freed me. I wasn't a purist, nor not quite a tourist either, there were foundational things that drew me real young, like Little Richard and Orbison and a LOT of the best stuff from the late 50's and especially from 1960 onward...by the time of Beatles/Stones I was sorta already there in some ways, as far as American rock and roll goes...We had The Crystals, The Ronnettes, the great other girl groups, a lot of stuff check it out it was explosive and beautiful...

The Stones blew my head off the first time I saw them even, they stood out. WHen I first heard TIOMS organ version I didn't know if they were black or white or who they were, tho I had scene a picture and knew they were part of the Invasion. I was only 12 into 13...I was prime for RT just a few years later, in high school; a sophomore I think....saw it as great literature haha, I still love it...
...

Loved Got Live; had Liver Than You'll on pristine vinyl, Still do. hardly anything else viny. Couldn't quite let that one go. When it does it will go to someone who knows what it is....

...Yas is Yas. Not even gonna talk about. Dont have to. It left marks.
L&G blew me away.
I was at the Zigfield for several of the showings; two in a row then went back again a couple of times during it's run....I was into it. I saw that tour a couple of stops as well; good stops; stops deep fans tell me was among their freshest and most ferocious ever...I hadn't seen them before that.

I saw Ron's 13th show where I had seen Mick take his birthday cake w Stevie et. al...lucky; didn't even have a basis for comparion or really know with any perspective, but super 'got it' if you know what I mean...and you do...
Loved Ron, saw Faces Fillmore East, close-up...amazing, to this day a super sacred blessing even; that good....
wasn't into the Stones show that much; Still loved 'em. NO tude, just not impressed. even with Eric and a lotus and aisles full of hand drummers ho hum;
even had press passes to after-show at bar where a LOT of UK stars were hanging and drinking and drank with them; talked with them; Stones never showed; they might have was the feeling a lot of people had. It was NY. It was a big stop press-wise; this is where the press was; pretty much all of them. Me just a fan with a friend who worked crew for major PA companies and just asked arranged it; we got into the bar very easily. Daltry was easy open friendly normal at the bar; it was cool. I didn't hate them or judge The Stones; I just wasn't comparatively into it....as time goes by; I'm still not./

then this things comes out. It just sorta laid there. I tried a few times. IT wasn't clicking; I didn't hate it or think about it or habe this big drama depression or care that much...loved 'em would always listen; still interested very many decades later...

but I listened some when I saw this thread. It's really not much to me still.
I dn't want to be disrespcectful ; i just think it' sloppy and flat and doesn't really leap out or sound 'authentic; no slam; I mean in relation to THEMSELVES, as I had always appreciated them 'authentic'...not that they were white boys riding the rocknroll thing,. So was I tho; and just a kid...Elvis was a little too early for me; but I went back and got him.

...it just wasn't that real high grade fine undeniable leader-of-the-pack, and absolutley, they had always been for me. I will be polite; because historically now; almosat everything is precious and intersting in perspective. I mean I love them; they sort of mark different periods of my life....like you mostly too, regardless of way younger, not many too much way older haha...

...not a special thing. not a legacy thing for me. nothing to really bother with; if it came on, I wouldn't leave the party let's say that. If I knew the host, I'd help them out.

It was my first Stones album, I guess that maked a great impact. And how wonderful to hear the studio version of some songs only years later, like Tumbling Dice.

An edit and remix album which has very little to do with the original concerts. Okay, it's better than the 1st live LP and Live Licks. I never listen to the official live albums, except the complete concert releases from the past 4-5 years.

It's posts like these that make IORR really worth it. This is what a fanboard does so well - highlight an album that doesn't mean that much to you.
Then someone else says it is their alltime favorite. That will make me re-examine it.
This one came out during a time when a new Stones album was a big deal, and one knew hardly anything about it. What let me down about it, was that I didn't get that feel of excitement from it; like "ya-Yas", or "Got Live".
Except Side 3. Side 3 is perfection. One of the best performabes ever recorded by the Stones. But then I started digging "Hot Stuff" and "@#$%&"; then "Happy" and "IORR".
I think it took a switch in listening and appreciating what they were doing, and how. The amps were hotter, but also drier. You didn't sense those vibrating, glowing tubes in the back of overloaded amps. And in the big shows (Side 1,2,&4) the crowd seemed anonymous, far away. Jagger was shouting a lot.

was my first stones tape when i decided to become a fan, bought in december 1987 aged 19.

dont know why i picked love you live, think it was because it had some songs i had heard of, brown sugar, jj flash, honky tonk woman. i could easily have picked hot rocks or rolled gold on another day, but i always have a soft spot for this album, took me a while to dig it though, didnt fancy it at first but it grew on me.

star star is excellent and less sloppy than some of the other stuff.

Sounds like Mick is having a seizure or something - not a fan of that tour

Saw them on their 1st night in Frankfurt (1976).
Black and Blue had just come out - what a disappointment.

The concert was a mess and those New Rolling Reggage Stones were not to my taste, and still are not.

Love you Live - what a disappointment again. Terrible sound and horrible MJ barking. On the other hand, it captures well the atmosphere on that above mentioned Frankfurt show. A good documentation of the Stones at their lowest.

Those of you who love Live you Live - enjoy!

Rolled Gold has been my first Stones album with LYL following soon.
Therefore it will always have a certain value for me,especially with side 3 of course.
Meanwhile I prefer LA Friday from the vaults.
That's a really great live album reflecting that era.

Loved it and still do. Sloppier than the Ya Yas incarnation of the band for sure but great energy and it rocks out. Really, the only drawback, as other's have said was Mick's manner of singing on that tour. He was better on Ya Yas and he would be better again come 1978...

"Gonna find my way to heaven ..."

I'm catching a vibe here that younger fans, some of whom this was their first or second Stones album, really like it. Older fans knew better? Knew that Ya Yas was the real deal? I felt cheated, especially since it cost more for a double album when there was only one good side of the four.

I must be the exception to the vibe then, since I'm over 50. But if you call that younger fans, that's fine with me

I just turned 54, and Love You Live was far from my first Stones album.
Glad to be considered young though!

Let's see, you would have been 14 in '77, and you already had bought a number of Stones albums? Okay. What was the first Stones album you bought? Because early Stones fans are in their 70s now. Some had been listening for a quarter century before Love You Live fell off the who cares truck.
