Probably The Best Tracks The Stones Have Ever Recorded

This is one of the best CD releases in the entire Stones collection. The tracks were recorded during club dates and they are definitely some of the best recordings of the band ever. It is worth buying just for the incredible Lisa Fischer vocals on Gimmie Shelter. Although you can hear this on the Maxx DVD, this is the only CD recording where Lisa really hits it. Mick and Charlie are outstanding on this recording of Gimmie Shelter as well. Tumbling Dice and Live With Me are also outstanding versions.

Even Better Than "Stripped"

The three unreleased live tracks are the best versions I have ever heard! I can't believe these songs didn't make the "Stripped" album. This is an essential Stones cd!!! Also, the cd single "Like A Rolling Stone" is a must-have-Stones-purchase! It has two unreleased live versions of "Black Limousine" and "All Down The Line" from the Stripped sesions. Buy both cds!!!

The epitome of rock and roll

I picked up this cd in a small record store in Ohio and was blown away. The Stripped cut of Wild Horses is the same but the import also has cuts from their small club tour. This cd has the greatest cut of Gimmie Shelter I have ever heard. The vocals of Mr. Jagger and backup singer Lisa are wonderful, not to mention that Mr. Richards does his finest work on the Gibson 335 in this cut. Since it was recorded in a small club you get the echo sound against the concrete walls. The tracks of tumbling dice and live with me are also the best I have heard. If you like the stones or just like good hard rock and blues pick this one up
