Quotefranzk Nice documentary on that tour. I've always wondered where the rest of that footage from the Granby Hall concert is. Given what's in this film, it sounds like the second Leicester concert was a pretty good performance (at least by 1976 standards) And in any case, I would love to see/hear the version of "Key To The Highway" they did that night when Clapton

Some additional info on this doc: Also, if there is any left whose still hanging onto the delusion that Keith Richards's heroin addiction is the epitome of "cool," then I dare them to go click onto the 19:41 point of that video. Keith's mumbling and vacant stare into the mirror has to be one of the saddest and most pathetic things I've ever seen.

It's interesting, for years, the Knebworth setlist made this one of the most coveted recordings for me to find, and when I finally got my hands on one, it was like Star Wars the Phantom Menace all over again: the dissapointment killed any hope that the leadup hype could be redeamed.

I was going through my Stones album collection today, and came across this 1979 compilation. I honestly can't understand why the Stones chose to under-promote it from the moment they released it, to the point where they didn't even release it in the U.S. It's a great 'best of' album with some lesser-known gems from the silver-era (cough, "Dancing With Mr D." c

I just heard the version of JJF from Keith's 1979 CNIB benefit concert in Oshawa that several fans have discussed over the years. Um, wow, that version is...different. It sounds like Chuck Berry is having a three-way with Motorhead and a 1990s grunge band.
