-There are soundboard recordings from some of the concerts that were recorded for the album, although there are at least two (Houston) missing. There are also some recordings which have been worked on in studio with overdubs. Most likely these are "leftovers" that won't be used in a future release. In general, the boots are not even close to be compared with an official release from this period. The Stones had the best mobile recorder in the world at that time, and also they probably did a lot of overdubbing. Theoretically, there are probably nothing available out on bootlegs that is close to what a future release would sound like...

Once again, this IS NOT a bootleg of the unreleased live album that is in the Stones vaults. It is a chopped up rehash of tracks from other, better, '72 bootlegs.

"Very Ancient, Thank You Kindly" is basically the CD release of some old albums like "Keep Your Motor Runnin", which was released long time ago. Yes, there's overdubs there. Very prominent on Tumbling Dice...that comes to mind immediately.

They wanted to release a double-album with Stevie Wonder on one side at least, and rest Stones.
But Allen Klein wouldn't let them release new versions of Decca-songs, the first 5 years after leaving Decca. That's why they had to wait until "Love You Live". But, they did try to put it together...a bit...or perhaps they did they overdubs in their "free time".
But there's several overdubs...both guitars and piano, at least.
But there are other posters here who are experts on 1972.

Besides instrumental overdubs, some studio-mixed versions feature "new" backing vocals on some songs, too: at least Tumbling Dice and All Down The Line do, as Keef didn't sing backing vocals live on these songs back in 1972.

All of these tracks are available on VGP´s "Keep Your Motor Running" CD (and none of them on the phoney "Unreleased Decca Live Album" Disc).
All Down The Line is from Philadelphia 07-21-72 (2nd show), not from Houston.
Rip This Joint is from one of the 07-21 Philly shows and not from Ft. Worth.

I'm still comparing all these fantastic '72 tracks. Did you recognize, that Sweet Virginia from "Very Ancient, Thank You Kindly American Tour 1972 [Scorpio SCO 30]" is a totally different mix, compared to all other releases? It's the version with "thank you for your wine Philadelphia" from 19710721, 1st show. There's an acoustic guitar from the very first note in the intro onwards, that you can't hear on the other releases. I have never heard that before. A great find!

Yes. These tracks that were apparently thought for release on the 1972 live album - e.g. on Very Ancient or Keep Your Motor Runnin' - are heavily overdubbed (as for all official live LPs). For example You Can't Always Get what You Want (that we only have in mono) is the same version from Houston 1st show as on Ladies And Gentlemen. But they edited out some vocals (no verses but shouts and improvisation by Mick). Also Happy is the same version as in the movie and different though.
