Maybe he just didn't care that much anymore since it was clear he was bound to stay with the guys
Freebasing put him down.

I truly believe that and Jo Wood alluded to that in her book.

The Stones have never sounded as great without Bill. You can hear what he brought to the band on this El Mocambo release

There will be no better release ever (maybe a more dry mixed update)

Well, he is playing live as opposed to Mandel in the studio.But I also love Mandel on Hot Stuff.Wood sounds great on this release.Compared to how he mostlyplayed in 1997-2006
It has not so much to do with live or studio playing. Mandel's solo on Hot Stuff is well-thought-out as opposed to Ron's solo that is more based on traditional/cliche licks, or even Mick Taylor whose solo's are based on melodic intuition and also traditional blues licks. I think Mandel's approach probably was too "intellectual" for the Stones. Maybe one of the reasons why Jagger didn't want him for the Stones. Keith: I don't know what he thought about it.
He sure did. Too bad he didn't do the same for Ladies and Gentlemen 1972. Or maybe give him the Philly 1972 showsQuote

The guitars on Hot Stuff sound great. Bob Clearmountain did a fantastic job bringing them out in all there glory. Clean sounding

Jagger wanted Mandel, Richards did not. “Too many effect boxes” or something like that.

Nobody wanted Mandel as he was way to freaky for the Stones, and an American. Wayne Perkins came really close to getting the job, but in the end they decided he was too much like Mick Taylor (a virtuoso lead guitarist and not much of a rhythm player), and that the band was a British band.

Nobody wanted Mandel yet he was specifically invited to play on the sessions? I think you need to read the interview he gave on the topic.
Richards wanted Perkins because they got along great, and Jagger wanted Mandel because he was more experimental. That’s why they were invited to the sessions. In the end, they compromised with a British guy.

In less than a year there will be massive discounts of up to 50% off or more just as there is with all these exclusive/deluxe releases.
Outside of the diehards, doubt there's many people who actually will give a crap about this release - especially as an overpriced colored vinyl set.
The minimal two cd set itself is overpriced at apprx. $30 (wtf!), so sales overall for this release will be quite slim, and doubt it will dent any music charts.
That said, looking forward to the cd set....arena sound and all, and in the meantime will wait patiently for the massive discounts that are bound to happen eventually.

Mandel also played the electric guitar on Memory Motel.Inever knew Mick wanted him , although Iknew Keith wanted Perkins if Mick agreed which he did not.But I would think since they both played on tracks which were released on the album they were considered for the position

Looks like Bill didn't make it in to any of the pics whatsoever - not even any of the pics in the booklet. A shame....
