But every succeeding day has seen a diminishing number of files allowed to be downloaded at "speed". I am now essentially allowed one or two downloads a day at premium speed. Anything beyond th

Link two for this show in the 1997/98 tour directory has been disabled and deleted and as a consequence my download remains uncompleted. Grammar nonwithstanding, is there anyone out there in IORR-land who can re-up that link or, failing that, the actual CDs?

Any concert-goer knows a formidable opening act is practically guaranteed to wring a little bit extra from a concerned headliner. And the Stones' choice of Stevie Wonder to be the opening act on their 1972 tour seemed guaranteed to do just that. I'm wondering if touring on the near-brilliant Music of My Mind, and with Talking Book, Innervisions, Fulfilligness First Finale and Songs

Never seen this before--clicked on the FileFactory link for VGP 127 (Paris Affair) and encountered this message: Server Not Found. Huh? Would re-uploading the link even help in this case?

This is worth it just for the Otis Redding-inspired, sledgehammer take on (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction! Hoo boy!!! (Is it just my imagination or do the Stones regularly play great shows in Paris?)

This was a HUGE tour, BeforeTheyMakeMeRun. 145 gigs--not including pre-tour rehearsals. Thanks very much for bothering to put these into (another) form of categorization. It really helps when you're looking for a particular gig.

Like the last four Stones' LPs, A Bigger Bang has its moments. But I'll never confuse it with one of their truly great albums. Speaking of Voodoo Lounge, I think a great deal of "Love Is Strong". It simmers instead of trying to run you down, and it works perfectly. "Saint of Me" works, too. Both would appear on any Stones comp I was responsible for.

Count me as a fan. Blak and Blu tried to do too much, but when it was good, it was really good. And the new live album burns! I really like his approach to gigs; he doesn't use a set list--he and his band just go by intuition. If you're curious, he made an appearance on the 2014 Grammy telecast. Without having actually looked, I'm sure it's on YouTube. *cough*

QuoteRoughJusticeOnYa We had this discussion in a seperate thread, but "Love You Live" IS a killer set of records. Nothing redundant on it!! Do give it several spins. Let's be clear: excepting side three (on the vinyl editions), Love You Live is lame. Jagger's affected singing communicates the fact he considered the Stones his dreary day job when he'd much ra

The second Filefactory link for Landgraaf (6/18/99) is corrupt and cannot be extracted. And the first and third links for Denver (2/2/99) aren't even available for download. Something about "periodic maintenance". It's been two weeks! Can someone please repair/re-up them? Please?
