Well you hardly need a boot to get an idea Ket. The tour and the concert involved are somewhat represented by the Gimme Shelter movie.
By the way, is there a turning point implicated in this particular event? It means that the concerts from the tour preceding the Altamont gig are to be categorised with the 62-69 period.
If you have to make a division, it would imo be that the tour (the first in years) is the start of a period, rather than an end to one. So the turning point would not be Altamont (the end), but Hyde Park (the beginning).
Altamont may have knocked them out a bit and the atmosphere got a little less grimm afterwards, but that had also to do with the glittering period that marked the seventies. Essentially the seventies are equal to the Altamont tour.
The Stones after Altamont thus were what they were during Altamont, there were numerous occasions were similar things could have happened.

It's strange that you choose Altamont as a turning point. So it counts to six or seven years career before Altamaont and 36 years after this event. Also, in musical terms this does not make sense to me. They still had to reach their creative peak when they performed Altamont.
For me, a turning point was the release of Tattoo You. This was the last truly great classic Stones album for me (I agree with most that Emotional Rescue was not exactly one of their best, though). All subsequent albums were still good to even great (A Bigger Bang!) or, like Dirty Work, at least had their moments, but beginning with Undercover, it was more or less variations of the same formula since.

Pre, I think. Some musical highlights certainly follow, but image-wise and in terms of promise, the early years are much cooler.
