Its crap live. They never got the boogie or even the rhythm right. Stick with the studio version...

Agree. It's a fun, rubbery song that has never worked live. And with the bass being such a prominent part of the song, it's guaranteed not to work now.

The version from Light the Fuse is pretty good actually. Maybe the best live one I've heard, '81 and '82 it was a trainwreck. Too fast, sounded like the band just wanted to get it over and done with.

The version on the Let's Spend The Night Together movie is outstanding. I really like the KBFH version from Largo too.

It was not a trainwreck, but rather a different song with a different groove.
I don't understand why Keith chose not to play the proper intro in standard tuning back then, instead of making the tune another Brown Sugar/JFF.
That sneaky groove of the original is something the Stones never managed to re-create live, unfortunately.
However, the Roskilde 2014-version was pretty good, except for Mick @#$%& up the lyrics in the very first verse

On record it underachieves - it's so restrained that it's almost lifeless.

If you call that one messing up the lyrics you should re-evaluate what it means to mess up on guitar

Well, he started with "she's so cold", instead of 'I'm so hot for her', and I loved the look on his face when he noticed it, too
Good version, though.

If it's me you're referring to; I was only speaking of "She's So Cold" there
