They took the track from the "Got LIVE If You Want It" EP (which was recorded in England) and edited footage from an Irish show to the track. The editing was done very well, not perfectly however, since in a case such as this it is nearly impossible to combine two different sources, one visual and one audio, and 'fool' the viewer. Sadly, I fear much of the live footage fro

I'll have to dig out the article, written by Lester Bangs, in which he mentions the ticket prices as well as referring to the Stones as 'the smelliest farts of them all'... I believe the top price was $100, maybe even $500...

The 30th Anniversary 3CD boxed set contains an excellent stereo alternate take of AWSOP. The set also includes a mono instrumental version of the master take. There is an out-fake version in stereo at this address:

QuoteBlueranger Interesting discussion. Any insights from thkbeercan regarding the relationship these days between Abkco and the Stones? And how about each others rights using songs before and after 1971? A lot of what I might say in response to your question is conjecture. Some is based on experience. I worked for Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab for 20 years and was involved with the company w

ABKCO held the publishing rights to these songs since they were 'written' or creatively conceived during the time of the Stones' legal involvement with ABKCO's management. However, since the final versions of these songs were not published until after the Stones and Klein parted ways, the performance (the ownership of the actual recorded versions as heard on record) rights of

I used to own this record, way back in the early 1970's. It wasn't all that bad, but was incomplete. I seem to remember that it did include some stage announcements and stage banter not found on other recordings...

Quoteduke richardson this article is very self serving, yes Exile is a great album, but lots of bands made records that way..the Allman Brothers for one... set up and play in a house, get some grooves going, develop songs from that, all the while having a continuous party...not unique to Exile or the Stones.

Say what you will about the article, (whatever the author's personal feelings are), it IS well written and MOST importantly, he successfully avoided including that overused and almost meaningless word 'iconic' which seems to be mandatory these days in any written piece about anyone who is even remotely recognizable... Bravo for that!

The Maysles probably filmed enough of the shows to put together a film of a complete MSG setlist. In fact, with the exception of Stray Cat Blues, Sympathy For The Devil, Live With Me, and Midnight Rambler the rest of the numbers are all available between the GIMME SHELTER movie and the Get Yer Ya-Yas Out DVD. It is also probably true, however, that not 100% of every number of each show was fi

The "George Jackson" single featured the same song on both the A-side and B-side of the 45. One side was a so-called 'big band' version to differentiate from Dylan's solo acoustic version on the reverse side. The big band version is the one found on the Austrailian album and CD release "Masterpieces". Dylan's solo acoustic performance (IMHO the better of

The image of the toilet was a no-no on an album cover in those times. Decca was not the only record label with such senstivities.

The Hyde Park concert is officially released in its video form (albeit it is incomplete) everywhere in the world except North America. And it has been available as a video for years. Including this as part of an 'unreleased' series might be considered a bit of a stretch, regardless of its merits or lack of merits. Also, the Hyde Park performance was done when the Stones were very muc
