Karl...you are correct sir...in the words of the nydollz...seven day weekend!....have a great one yourself!

I was at that show, right up front. The best show of the '78 tour! Nicely preserved on the "Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others" boot.

Rialb...you are finely preserved in the screaming audience on many a boot

The best $10 I ever spent.

Leonard, you're a fellow southerner! where are you from, you're also a fellow bass player...I read in an earlier thread...I'm pumped about this show in Charlotte tonite!!
DR

Great version, heard it on one of the first Stones boots I bought, the Performances box set, which was a strange place for it to appear since its all studio outtakes besides that one song.

By the way, that is not the reason for my username here, that comes from my hound dog, his name is Johnny. Considered naming him Charlie.

Hey check it out folks, we've got a celebrity among us:

I'm sure that p bass is classic sounding, priceless..I had a mid 70's one which was stolen a few years ago...I've been playing drums mostly for the last 5 years, the kit was my first instrument, but got into bass for years too. your bandleader is in a band called the someone and the Rank Outsiders, right? my friend here in Charlotte had a band called the Rank Outsiders, a rock and roots band! now we're the Bill Noonan Band...its crazy, but we're still rockin and digging the Stones...and quite a bit of Cajun/creole/zydeco spice is getting in there too.

Leonard, is this the first time you've heard the Memphis show from '78?

Or were you just marveling once again -- as I still do -- over how awesome they were back then?

Interesting--if we're talking about the material on the "Handsome Girls" collection, then my favorite material for a notional 1978 tour playlist is mostly garnered from Ft. Worth and Detroit.

My info on the "Handsome Girls" sources comes from here:

[home.wanadoo.nl]

According to this site, only two songs from Memphis are included: "Shattered" (disc 3) and "Hound Dog" (disc 4).

For your listening pleasure: "Hound Dog", from Memphis 28 June 1978:

[s38.yousendit.com]

Bonus track: Blitzkrieg with guitars --go, Ronnie, go!

"When The Whip Comes Down", live 1978

[s38.yousendit.com]

The copy of the Memphis show I have is "Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others" It does mot have tracks 3. Star, Star or 7. Lies. Does anyone have the whole 1978 Memphis show?

Leonard - this is awesome! I first heard the Lazy Cowgirls on norwegian national radio, and I love Tapping the Source, and others! yeah, the hounddog version is amazing, the 78 tour was smashing! wathcing an allright dvd of the new orleans show now, and cool to see almost the whole some girls album in the middle of the set. also the Handsome Girls dvd is great! Leonard - can you mail me? here: ringo@broadpark.no

Can't agree more with the positive vibe of this thread!
That 'Hound dog' take on Handsome Girls is definitely one of the highpoints of all the Stones recordings.

When the Whip Comes Down sounds awesome. Thanks, bassplayer617! The Hound Dog link isn't working anymore, though - could you (or someone) repost the file?

Here we go..... "Hound Dog" again!

Enjoy!!!

Got it that time ... what a great version! Thanks G! Sure wish they'd play it in Memphis this year (but not holding my breath).
