Boy, when i see this, how I would love to acquire a complete professionally shot 69 show of the Stones at the Garden before I leave this world. Such a shame that what's left over from what the Maysles filmed is just sitting in a vault somewhere gathering dust...

I know, how we all wish we could see that footage. Knowing that there exists a full show (or shows, surely) from 1969, and we may never get to see them. At this point the only people interested would be the super fans, but for us super fans, it would mean the world. Any proshot footage from those years (besides the already released), 1969-1972, would be gold.

Wonderful. Even the grainy footage does not detract from the power of where the band was at, and where the music was heading as this tour progressed. While I thought they kicked ass in Chicago where I saw them in 69, as Mick said" we really didn't get it on until Detroit".
Please release more music/video from this tour, while we are still alive to enjoy it!!

At the very least release it online, whatever, iTunes/Apple etc.
However, as much as that makes sense, it's not bound to happen since, even though they signed with UMG, who also distributes their ABKCO catalog, it's strictly up to ABKCO Records to decide - UMG has no say in it.

I don't understand why they wait to release it. Most of the hardcore buyers will be ashes in 20 years...

According to the Maysles brothers they did not film complete shows. The tape canisters needed reloading every couple of minutes, so they made storyboards of when all the cameras would film and when not, to change the tape canister. They used Baltimore and a try out, they filmed parts of Miami as well, and decided to stay until Altamont to film some more additional footage.
Further, there likely do not exist many more film outtakes as the procedure back then was editing by actually cutting the tape with scissors and pasting it back, and all the outtakes were dropped to the floor and then discarded. So the outtakes that are available are mostly single camera shots that were not used for the movie.

How were the Beatles 3 years earlier able to film Shea Stadium concert.Didn’t they film the entire show.I know they were shorter shows back then, but it must have been about 40 minutesQuote

This is a very interesting discussion.When I developed the petition to release the complete audio tracks of the MSG shows, I received a couple of e-mails from Stones fans who attended the private/paid event in the mid 2000's in New York where the last living Maysle brother Albert showed footage of the Stones at MSG 69 that didn't make it in the film and both of these folks claim there was just enough footage (plus what has already been released in Gimme Shelter) to make up (just about) a complete show. That is why I opted in the petition to include the video with the audio. Now I don't know if these folks were bullshitting me or what but that was what was told to me.

It could be that if you combine all the available outtakes from the 4 shows that were recorded you have an almost complete show. What are we missing -Sympathy, Rambler, Stray Cat and Live With Me. It was mentioned they didn't film Rambler as it was too long.

Mathijs- Regarding Sympathy & Rambler, Check out page 2 of the thread for Petition to get all 3 shows from MSG 1969 released via the comments from DearDoctor.

Well, it's not just up to ABKCO decide - there is another party, The Rolling Stones. For any non-yet-released material they need to have an approval from the band as well. And I suppose it is the latter that is the actual problem here... (the material ABKCO released in youtube seems to an interesting case - if there is no band approval, that's technically illegal move by ABKCO..)
