QuoteBrstonesfan Well, I consider myself a Stones purist and chose not to listen to other classic rock bands, especially ones like Beatles, LZ, Floyd, Eagles, who many constantly say are so much better than the Stones. I like the Who because Pete has always credited the Stones and not put themdown like Bob Plant, Bono, and others.. Put down? Its just opinion. And basing your (narrowing your

QuoteHouseBoyKnows Quoteflacnvinyl Regarding Still Life, I am just comparing the old original vinyl release to the Hampton 81 recent re-release. Just the modern 'master the heck out of this thing so that people will bad sound systems hear the bass' technique. Back in the day, I remember being disappointed that Still Life sounded speeded up a fraction compared to the boots of Hampton

Really, there's nothing wrong with it. Would you have prefered a 'live' record polished and 'replayed' in the studio ala The Eagles, or even Ya-Yas with its overdubs (and if I am

So I download Apple's new ios8.4 so I can give their new Music service a go. I discover the complete sticky fingers part of the show at the Fonda theatre on there! I click the button Show In iTunes Store and there it is for purchase and download. Oh my god!!! Moonlight Mile!!! You gotta move...I am in heaven! Edit.sorry I just saw the other thread.

Great show. So little(none?) fanfare about its release. I am not sure if the complaining about this show, and the Stones in general in fact, doesn't say more about those who complain than about the Stones. Christ, they are in their 70s and they STILL rock out like this. I am approaching my 61st. I couldn't keep up with them in any shape or form. Yes, they aren't the same as t

QuoteNoCode0680 I like several of the songs, but it doesn't work very well as an album for me. I really enjoy 2000 Man, Citadel, She's A Rainbow, and 2000LYFH. Since they're so spread out, the album doesn't really flow for me. Yep. I love these 4. Absolutely HATE the rest... which all sound dated. Whereas the 4 I do love, somehow sound almost modern.

The version of Bitch on CD2 is absolutely stunning. Stonkingly great. Pulverlisingly stupendous. Wyman is incredible. Taylor is magical. Keith's the riffing machine and the horns just BLOW. Micks vocals are breathtaking. AND CHARLIE? Piledriving. All because Jimmy Miller has provided an awesome, rich, deep canvas that all the players just sweep in and out of with such precision and drive. My
