My favorite is Newcastle 1971. Wow. Talk about raw energy, rockin’ til the wheels fall off!
You were there?

The 2015-versions had the best sound from Keith, imo. Playing that riff with a dry Tele-sound, like he did up till then, didn't sound as good.
The studio version of Rambler is such a different beast...it's still awesome in its own right, but live, it's taken on a life of its own over the decades.Quote

It's one of my all-time favorite Stones songs (with Sticky Fingers being my favorite Stones album), but I've never heard a live version that beats the studio version....which is quite the opposite with another all-time favorite, 'Midnight Rambler'. Every live version I've ever heard is better than the studio version of 'Rambler', which just seems caged on the record.

Keith should use the neck pickup, wasn't that what he used on the record? The guitar he played it on in 2015 hasn't got a neck pickup I don't think, but a telecaster does. I don't own a tele so I can't really judge, but Jimmy Page sounded huge that way on the first Led Zep record anyway. Perhaps Keith just doesn't want to sound like that, or maybe he forgot.

Would it work without effect pedals? He is already using the neck pickup for songs like TD. I'm not sure he used a Telecaster on CYHMK.

If that 71 Newcastle show bootleg ever pops up and if they did play CYHMK and Wild Horses - I wonder who played the clean electric solo on WH - would Keith of let MT play the solo? - All these years with RW, Keith let RW play the solo and that has always baffled me - that studio solo guitar part is so iconic and Keith lets RW play the solo all these years.
