Future Rolling Stones From The Vault releases

Glad to see some respect for 1976 tour.

 

Personally I like the 1975 tour better. They were playing too many songs from the weak Black And Blue in 1976.

 

While I agree with that, “Hey Negrita” live smoked out its studio counterpart.

 

Fair, but maybe it's just me - I have very few live performances from that album in my collection so I'd welcome a release from 76

 

One of the El Mocambo shows will eventually be released I should think.

 

I would still buy it but I don't care as much to hear stuff like Hot Stuff, Fool To Cry and Cherry Oh Baby for example. Hand of Fate and Hey Negrita are pretty good live.

 

In the words of @Dave Hoos , there's no need for that, John.

I want Philly 1972 and I want it now.

 

That and Knebworth gotta be on the agenda sooner or later. And a No Security show.

 

Obviously I have no problem with the Black and Blue songs they played in '76 ("Fool To Cry" excepted, of course), it's just that, for me, as sloppy as they sounded in 1975 they sounded that much worse in '76, which is why I don't find myself returning to those shows very often. Knebworth is my favourite 1976 show almost by default, based on the setlist.

 

I enjoy the Paris shows...

 

And if you thought they sounded sloppy in ‘76!

 

Except, oddly enough, not "Crazy Mama," which seems like it should've been the easiest no-brainer to play live. So strange.

 

Although at least they brought that one out on the Bridges to Babylon tour, albeit unexpectedly.

 

More shows from 1971.

 

A vault release that was a compilation of all these rarely played songs and covers from 1989-present would be an instant buy for me. No one needs more late period versions of "Jumping Jack Flash," but there's still a number of songs they played on those tours that never made official releases.

 

Great idea, I would be all in on that.

 

I'm sure you all know about this, but I just learned about the 1981 concert with Mick Taylor playing 2/3 of the show. Do you think they would ever release this? Surely they have the multitracks from the concert.

 

@John Fell might have a better answer, but from my knowledge, Keith, Woody, Bill and Ian McLagan were not happy with MT's performance, saying that he overplayed and was too loud.

 

There's a board tape of the Kansas City show that circulated a few years ago. I haven't listened to it in ages but Taylor's guitar is barely audible on the board tape. Apparently he was plugged into an amp onstage that wasn't properly mic'd thru the PA but it was overpoweringly loud onstage and it really peeved Keef. There's a brief story about this in Ronnie's autobio.

There's also a decent audience tape of this show out there. As I recall (haven't listened to it in years), Taylor's guitar is more present on this audience tape than the board tape but it's still not very loud or clear.

 

That is similar what I had heard as well with the amp issue.

 

Would this affect it showing up on the multitracks?

 

If it wasn't mic'd up through the board, the only sound would be leakage onto other mics, hence why it's so faint on the SBD.

 

Agreed, Knebworth also has their best set list from that tour and arguably ever.

 

Yep!
