a question for the sound experts: How does the sound of the DVDs / Blu ray discs compare to the sound of the CD?
(to my ears the CD sounds much better than the DVD but I can't really compare because I have to play DVDs on my mac while my CD player is linked to my hifi system.
Ronnie's playing on all these shows is incredible. It bums me out that he really lost it on the B2B and No Security tours. He made a big comeback on the Licks tour after getting sober but has never really re-approached playing like this since.Quote

Is it me or Ronnie was 'overcreative' in Brixton? A couple of is solos sound completely out of this world.
PS. Connection in Brixton is a beautiful trainwreck

Oh yeah, I agree. I can remember watching Ronnie on the No Security tour and seeing how utterly out of it he was, and Keith's playing more than made up for it.Quote

Maybe so, but to make up for it Keith's playing was superb on the No Security Tour, from which it's been a gradual decline, while Wood's playing is still top notch, the only Stones musician still playing at peak.

"Connection" at Paradiso is one of the coolest footage of them I've ever seen. Brilliant!!
There's a HUGE difference between the gloriously ragged and sloppy performances that the Stones regularly gave in the '70s, which had a rock'n'roll charm to them, and complete trainwrecks. I don't find them funny or endearing...I think it shows a lack of respect for the crowd when a song is completely butchered and laughed off.Quote

"Connection" at Paradisio is the only time I have seen and heard that the song actually works in a live-setting! It's really great, which only makes me think that Jagger are the sole reason for it's succes.
On all other live versions over the years, including Paris and Brixton, Keith chops and smashes the poor thing into pieces with no sense of timing and bad playing. Charlie has his responsibility of it too, with his tampering on the tom-tom's, which makes it sound like a train-wreck.
I don't think at all that it's "cool" that a song simply sounds bad.
There are forum members here, who thinks that it's "beautiful" to hear a song like "Connection" fall apart in concert. Like Keith is all forgiven because he is a great personality. Hilarious.

I've now ripped the DVD's to cd, and listened to it a couple of times, it's really a great collection of concerts we've got here. It's good to be a stones fan these years. It so great that the band has opened their archive. I think that over the next years we'll see a lot more coming out. I don't much about a new album, but the rumors of a blues album would be at big thing.

got the cd/dvd version. listened to the cd. enjoyed "rip this joint" and "I go wild". great version of "miss you". other than that the cd has me baffled. not many rare choices and most of it doesn't sound "stripped". whats the point
whats on the dvd? some live stuff and a documentary?
