Great setlist. But wildly uneven performance, IMO. A few songs are bad (Live With Me, Neighbors). Dance Part 1 should be embarrassing to Keith and Ronnie - they never find even a little groove, not even a little funk. But then they rally and do a great version of CYHMK. Not enough rehearsal time? Too intoxicated? Keith and Ronnie posing vs playing?

Jimmy Miller must have lost sway over the Stones, the process or himself during the making and. release of GHS. I think having the right producer is super important for many bands, esp ones like the Stones, who were maybe a bit disjointed by this time. Mick doing his thing, Keef doing his. Charlie, Bill and Taylor not always engaged. Lots of money, drugs everyone living very separate lives.

I am really hoping they add several songs from Hackney Diamonds to their setlists for the upcoming tour. I am doubting they can handle a 24-25 song show anymore, and will have to replace some regulars. My pick: Add: Angry (not my fave song from the record, but it's the single) Sweet Sounds Of Heaven Tell Me Straight (Keef needs something new) Bite My Head Off Replacing: Miss You

I would like to see some 'young' (such a relative term) bands that are carrying on some of the music we seem to be drawn to: The Nude Party (https://youtu.be/IGkN3iXeHr4?si=W2D0isIie1puaZfb) The Heavy Heavy Mooon (yes three 'o'....new album being released) Please no more Ghost Hounds....just a bar cover band would be better.

Thank you to the poster of the Syracuse 1998 show. I was there, sitting near the back of the floor. For the first several songs, till almost they hit the B-stage, most of the songs were inaudible for us and those around us.We tried moving and got moved back to our seats by security. I particularly remember Bitch being identifiable by the horn section. At the B stage, they sounded perfect. I a

Hi Captain: Do you get to work with original multi-track studio tapes or mixed/mastered use software to isolate instrument/voices on previously mixed/mastered/un-official released material? It sounds great and so clean. Total novice here.

My Lucky Dips for Chicago 2 are $39 each, plus a pile of service charges. Still much cheaper than the cheapest nosebleed. If they turn out to be nosebleeds, as long as the sound is good, it will still be ok with me.

This is outstanding! Thank you! I have seen the Crowes 3 times over the years and the setlists and performance quality have been all over the map. Super tight band/obscure setlist. Popular songs and cool covers on the setlist/sloppy performance (or singer is too stoned and in his own world). But this boot is what I would have loved to see/hear the like they are on this recording, one of the

Whatever direct this site goes, or even if it shots down, I want to thank you for all your diligence and hard work in providing a fantastic forum to interact with other Stones fans.

The cost to administer and protect the copyright under multiple country/regional laws may be more than the potential revenues to earn from some copyrights. On this site, and a few others, there are hardcore fans who will gladly collect any tidbit of recorded Stones material. But how much real income could be in it for the band? Record and CD sales, even when they put a decent amount of money in

I have had people freak out when I sent them an 320 kbs MP3 of bootleg, where the original was an audience recording to hissy tape in 1972. But I guessing the lack of dynamic range of the original meant that it would not matter if transferred via lossless FLAC or 320 MP3 or down to 192 MP3....none of the music on the original was anywhere nearly as high as 16,000 hz or remotely as low as 100 hz.

David is keeping the music alive. The 2nd half of his Broadway show is Talking Heads only - and the part of the show that got the audience alive. Though I would love to see them tour.

It's a basic song. Though many singles by many musicians are meant to appeal to the least common denominator. Made to dance to or be a stadium anthem vs generating anything deeper. I'm waiting to hear what else is on the album, especially lyrically. The range and speed of the fingers declines with age. Great melody, biting wit, surprise or add social commentary and the ability to pai

Sadly, but to be expected in any band's catalog, even the Stones have had some that were maybe best left undercover of the night, rather than released officially.
