Of course here is another option.
The Stones simply re record their 60s material, whether released or still in the Archives.

Maybe better though for the group to release some NEW material rather than upset ABKCO even more!

[...] there's still the authors/composers whose copyright usually expires 75 years after their death and their respective publishing companies (ABKCO again in this case).

All in all, it's still a bit of a minefield and not as easy as it may look at first sight to become an "independent Stones archive entrepreneur"... You have to know exactly what you're doing and know this legal stuff in detail - otherwise you're facing serious trouble...

Thanks for explaining more clearly, retired dog

In other words, in addition of buying a record-presser, I'd also have to pay lawyers and other experts along the way....even Jagger and Keith!
Hmmm....the expenses would absorb the profits for me; the whole operation of mine would cave in, Jeez, what cynical and bureaucratic times we're living in

Back in 2011 the musicians won a copyright extension for 20 more years for royalties to at least the year 2033.

From The Guardian (Sept.12,2011)

[Musicians win copyright extension in court]

It wasn't a court decision, it was EU legislation that dealt with released recordings, not unreleased material.

I got my deluxe set yesterday. Pretty happy with it. The book is the star attraction. Like many others have commented, I wish there were some alternative versions but it was $100 so I still think it was worth it. I paid $250 for the Prince 1999 coming out in a few weeks. We will see how that stacks up.

In my opinion Sticky Fingers Live was more than just a nice try. For me it was fascinating to hear how they perform these iconic numbers today. I would love them to do exactly the same with their other major albums - Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed, Exile, Some Girls, Tattoo You et al. I cannot see why doing so would not be a good idea, as has been said by another contributor. Yes The Stones are a functioning band in the sense that they still play a lot of live gigs. But they are increasingly becoming a Greatest Hits band given their ongoing focus on warhorses. Performing entire albums live would merely be a different way of playing their back catalogue, while also giving us the pleasure of hearing songs they only play rarely, if at all.

Recording live versions of their legendary albums should not necessarily prevent them from recording another studio album, although as time goes by I become less and less confident they will ever do so. I may be wrong, and I hope I am. But for a band in the autumn of its life, I fully understand the impediments to recording another fully fledged album of new material. It would cost a lot. It would take a great deal of time, even if some of the work has already been done. It would be subject to the usual condescending and sarcastic comments about pension plans, cash grabs, and ego trips. And, sadly, it would almost certainly sell rather underwhelmingly, no matter how good it might be. Yes of course, those of us who love the band will buy it. But it would struggle to make any kind of worthwhile impact more widely. And that would be a shame.

The Stones deserve to go out with a bang, not a whisper.

If disappointment is your goal, try with standard EU vinyl... very poor effort without poster (why?)

Maybe it’s my aging ears but I thought the sound on this was really good. Better than 2002 I guess is up for debate but I cranked up both the vinyl and stereo sacd and danced the whole way through. Yup, caved for the $100 box. I’m usually a pretty logical guy but with the stones logic goes out the window and I purchase purely on emotion. Been that way since I was 10 and saw the stones on Dick Cavett show in 1972. It’s an illness and addiction that will last until my dying breath.

These reissues all have excellent sound. TSMR and BB were fabulous. Will get LIB soon.
