all the recent concert releases have a terrible sound quality (San Jose 99, Miami 94, BA 1998 etc) No idea which sources they used. Even Totally Stripped, originally either recording or mastering done analogically (i don´t remember), compare the Paradiso 26.5. GIMME SHELTER or SFM with the original 1995 releases - what a lousy job on the new releases. That just ain´t no HiFi

Now if one can explain me Dolby Digital logo on CDs from Superdeluxe box.
No. It is perfectly OK. It is 16 bit/44.1 kHz CDDA format.Quote

Maybe that's the Audio-Source for the CDs - a lossy Dolby Digital (visible in a FFT-Analysis) ??

Some people (not just you Dorn) will never be happy. On this board, it used to be moans about not opening the archives and now they are open, it's moans about the mix, mastering, picture quality, etc. As a Rolling Stones fan of many years standing and I am grateful to get anything from the archives and I want more.

The Tokyo dvd from the Deluxe set really seems to be ripped from vhs. I wonder what’s the case there. Were the original tapes really not available? The Vault release looks like it should, this certainly does not.

don´t get me wrong, i am not moaning THAT they are opening the archives but if they do - and making the boots we have been collecting for the past decades with lots of passion, spending lots of time, energy and money worthless - they should at leat do it with an outstanding sound quality.

I could not agree more. We could have the complete MSG and Altamont 69 shows, El Macamambo, etc, etc, and there will still be trolls here complaining about something. It doesn't sound the same, maaaaaaaan.

Was this Deluxe Tokyo (24th or 26th, where the hell are the dates from the covers?) filmed as a rehearsal or something?
What’s nice here compared to Atlantic City is that the focus is more on the band (even Bill!) than the stage construction. Yes, it is cool and expensive, but I’d rather watch the players. Pity about the vhs quality.

...It's kind of as close as the Stones got to being a 'Vegas act' in my view - it's all just a bit too slick.. .
