The '89/'90 versions are good but a bit too clean sounding. I like the bluesy and less hysteric vibe it had on the Bridges to Babylon-tour, St. Louis '97 is a great version.
Atlantic City is NOT clean-sounding (that's why it's so good).
Yea you're right the guitars are not clean sounding on the Atlantic version. I was more thinking of SMU from Tokyo 1990 and Live at the Max etc.

If they ever release an expanded Tattoo You, I'd love to hear one of the alternative versions of SMU.

Yeah, they sound very dry indeed. They must have changed amps after the US-leg. Didn't they have Boogies and Cervin Vegas in the US?

As far as I know Keith was playing two Fender Twin and two Marshall Heads on the whole tour. Ronnie and Mick played Mesa Boogie stacks on the whole tour.

The acoustic version is a gem.

Barcelona 90 with Keith's kick in front of the public when he walked on stage
I'm watching Atlantic City now (thanks for link). What an incredible performance. Keith's solos were just incredible. He was on top with his playing. It Shoud be released on From The Vault series
DP, do you know which Marshall amp heads he used ?Quote

According to Mathijs (I think) there was some switching back and forth - and I think a Cervin Vega-head was mentioned.
Thanks for reminding me about the Marshall-heads, though. I knew, but had forgotten

This is the best pic I have here. Hard to decipher

Although I don't like the 89/90-Vegas-tour, in my opinion the best versions are to be found there, since Ronnie used to play very good solos during this tour on SMU. Good examples are Toronto 89 and Atlantic City 89. Later on I think: What is Ronnie doing on his guitar during Start Me Up? The later the years, the more the solos are messed up ...

One of their finest because of what they make of it rythmically and lyrically, the song is a stroke of genius. People who don't get the song don't really get the Stones IMHO. Start Me Up could only have been written by Jagger/Richards. Same with Dice, Brown Sugar or Flash to name a few others.
The studio is the best but there are so many great live versions, my favourite is probably Parken Copenhagen 2007. Keith was determined to shut a certain journalistic c**t's mouth up…

Indeed, this is so true. For comparison, listen to The Cult's Love Removal Machine and see how the chord pattern is broadly similar but the Jagger/Richards magic just ain't there.

I liked it on the 86' Dirty Work Tour. It was tightened up compared to 81-82, but not as slick and polished as 89.

That's an understatement
It's a blatant rip off. However, they changed the rest: The tempo, the groove, the rhythm, the bass.

As I recall on the 86 DIRTY WORK tour, they played Start Me Up inverted. What really blew my mind was how they opened with Love Is Strong.
