Bingo
Shattered starts out with all the vocals in the left channel? Weird.

"Connection"...meh Everyone in the band seems to know the song well enough---except Keith. Very rushed and very very nervous version.

I think this version is ok. Keith sings it very well, but misses Ronnies lead (If there was meant to be one.) Also noticed that Keith doesn't play his guitar at all except two short leads.

overall:
it's grooving it's hot it is an entire show put in a box with no edits nor overdubs (wow!) like a kind of official bootleg ! so it has its flaws (SFTD a big one as usual lately)
but hey this rocks a lot
one thing that it is clear is that some classics smoke better than ever while some nuggets well they try to...
ups: ADTL, SG, C&R, TD, YGTS, SMU, BS
downs: SFTD, S, PIB, LT&A
cant wait to grab the "real" thing (and see the movie of course!)
Still there, pal.Quote

You can still have those "good old days" if you really wanted them. If one wants to recreate the excitement and anticipation...just eliminate the one thing that didn't exist in 1978: the internet. You can't have the internet, be part of a Stones messageboard have the knowledge and ability to download from torrents and still preserve your sense of anticipation and suspense for a release. Either get rid of the internet or start practicing on some pretty tough self-discipline.
I did that when A Bigger Bang came out. I didn't listen to any Stones music for something like 2 weeks. Just to build up anticipation. I was there at the store when it was released, and they had to open the box the CDs was in to get me one. They had only just opened and hadn't had time to unpack the new releases. So I get it, go home and blast it through the speakers. I jumping like a maniac that day. It was great.

That's a funny thing about Rolling Stones fandom A.D. 2008 - even the anticipation of a new Rolling Stones record needs to be somehow manufactured or created - it won't happen naturally. I don't think it has very much to do with internet actually - we just don't actually expect anything to be released that we honestly think would blow our mind away. The biggest expectations concern how it is mixed - or how much is edited, etc. Musically we know excatly what we are going to get. No surprises to any direction in that section.
