But if you want a copy of my pretty good boot, you know how you can!

About time too, although what a curiously low-key way to announce the release of one of the greatest live albums of all time.

at Stonesarchive.com, and in FLAC too. I dived straight in and, of course, their ridiculous Download Manger programme won't work with my proxy server in work, hopefully it'll be a different story when I get home. Has anyone ever loved and respected their biggest fans as much as the Stones do?

Got this on with my headphones now. Tumbling Dice sounds amazing.

they really are the world's best rock n roll band at this point. Knock off Woody, bring back Taylor

Its easy to forget the style of live band they once were. I actually felt dread when they attempted Midnight Rambler on the licks tour. This is unbeatable.

to get my hands on this - I fondly remember the Empire Pool gig on this tour as one of the best shows I've ever seen, certainly by them. This seems to confirm my memory!!

Anyone got any opinions on how this release stacks up against the unofficial versions?

flac burned onto cd, on the hi-fi now, it sounds fantastic, much improved sound over the boot. This is the sound of the greatest rock n'roll band there has ever been or will be. They really miss Taylor, but the really miss Wyman as well. The horns sound fantastic. Jesus, where's the drink?

Why can't they release it as a CD or better still, a long player?

version of this and what I love about it is it sounds properly live. No tweaking in the recording studio afterwards (a la Get Your Ya Yas Out). Does the official release still sound authentically live?
