As powerful as the single was and is in my life It's somehow never been a live highlight for me; tho I love the hysteria of the earlier live versions when everything's a mess & they're just charging through it.

Agree. It's a special song, but when I listen to live albums, Satisfaction is seldom very engaging, in my opinion.
The '69 version is probably my favourite of the live renditions. It's a little dragged out, but I think they get a fantastic groove there that they never achieved in '71, 72 or any later era. Mick Taylor shines on the '69 version.

I know... Some might still have it, though...

I saved them before they were removed, but I only got 25 tracks. I read in that thread there were 30 tracks ... so either:
a) 30-count was incorrect
b) I simply missed 5
c) 5 were removed before I saved them

Its one of those songs they just can't perform well live. Add that to Street Fighting Man, Jumping Jack Flash, Brown Sugar, and others.

With exception to one tour (STEEL WHEELS/URBAN JUNGLE) they've always done great versions of Street Fighting Man and for the most part (other than it going on for 3 hours on some tours) Brown Sugar.
Jumpin' Jack Flash they haven't done worth a damn since 1969-1971.

If you think any of those live versions are even in the same league as the Record versions i don't know what to tell you.
They go from tight masterpiece to sloppy butchering.

Street Fighting Man on GET YER YA-YA'S OUT! is exceptional and better than the album version. They also did an outstanding version of it on the LICKS tour. And the one on STRIPPED is killer.
Jumpin' Jack Flash from 1969-1971 is better than the studio version.
So don't worry about not knowing what to tell me.

I guess we will agree to disagree. If you like sloppy songs that sound basically no different then any other song they play live then I get it. Love the sloppy unlistenable vocals also.
I prefer tight masterpieces.

For me the live version from 69 on the deluxe Get Yer Ya Ya's Out. The DVD performance is just incredible! I love cranking that out!

1969. The version in GIMME SHELTER and on the GET YER YA-YA'S OUT! box set is incredible. The way Keith played was awesome - it took what could be perceived as The Beatles' Day Tripper lick (which was then used for Dancing With Mr D) and made it into a chugging rocking tune that kicks as opposed to how it just sludges like the studio version.
The 1981-82 version of it is hilarious. Since 1989 it's a huge yawn just like SFTD and Jumpin' Jack Flash.

I will not agree to disagree. What's astounding is your inability to hear how what I mentioned is or are better than the studio versions - just like Honky Tonk Women from LOVE YOU LIVE blows away the studio version.
There's nothing sloppy about them and they do not sound "no different than any other song they play live". Why you can't understand that is your loss.

You are wrong again.

Philadelphia 78 is "nice". Only tour version in the middle of the set.
RedHot, actually I think "Satisfaction" has remained pretty top level. That song for some reason has not become a yawn IMO.Quote
