Editorial Reviews
Ladies and Gentlemen… The Rolling Stones finally comes to DVD. This legendary Rolling Stones concert film, shot over four nights in Texas during the "Exile ON Main Street" tour in 1972, was released in cinemas for limited engagements in 1974 and has remained largely unseen since. Now, restored and remastered, Ladies and Gentlemen makes its first authorized appearance on DVD. This is one of the finest Rolling Stones concerts ever captured on film and features outstanding performances of classic tracks from the late '60s and early '70s.

I am a follower of the Stones since 1964. I was 9 years old. Eight years later, my older brother buys tickets for the Houston 4 pm show. It would be my first concert. Five of the fifteen songs in the movie are from this performance. The Stones had played 2 shows in Fort Worth on Saturday, June 24, 1972, and they played 2 shows the next day at the University of Houston. All songs are from Beggars Banquet through Exile on Main St., with Bye Bye Johnny thrown in. Hopefully, they have improved the video for this great movie (the soundtrack has survived in good shape as heard through various bootlegs). Keith's vocals for Happy were overdubbed & a mess was made of it in the film. A mystery, because there is a performance on youtube that is not overdubbed. The vocals are ragged, but it's Keith so who cares? No inflatable women or bridges to small stages, just a band who is focused on showing how good they really are. Mick Taylor is a great guitarist and a highlight, but Keith's rhythm guitar work is amazing, The rhythm section is playing hard, with a horn section from Texas, the legendary Nicky Hopkins on piano, and the best front man in the business. I even think it may be Ian Stuart at the piano during Brown Sugar. Very few shots of the audience, the focus being on the band. If at least one of these songs don't impress you, you are not a rock fan. A must see.

Pure dirty Exile-era Stones. Serious about the music. If you need to learn what all the fuss is about and have only witnessed later concert films (the inferior "We're the Stones You Should Love Us Just Because" vibe of "Let's Spend the Night Together"), this document sets the record straight.
The Stones are working hard at this show, looking as if they have something to prove. And prove it they do. It's 1972 and there is still an element of danger in the air for this band. They're deadly serious and are leaning into these numbers. Mick Taylor--the sequel to Brian Jones and the prequel to Ron Wood--stands stock still and delivers those chilling licks that made Exile on Main Street legendary. Heck, even good ole honorary Stone Nicky Hopkins is on board for some rollicking piano fills.
This show just builds and builds. By the time they crash head on into Midnight Rambler you feel as if there's no other rock 'n' roll band.
And there IS no other rock 'n' roll band. THIS is the Stones. You SHOULD love them. Because of THIS.

Folks, assuming the video transfer and audio mix are even close to what they were upon this film's initial release, anyone who purchases/views this is in for a treat. This is the Stones at their absolute zenith, with their greatest lead guitarist (Mick Taylor), performing the very best of their vast catalog (from their first post - "Exile" tour, yet still including much from "Beggar's Banquet," "Let It Bleed" & "Sticky Fingers") and Jagger's swagger & voice in peak form.
I have a very raw bootleg of "Ladies and Gentlemen..." and even with poor resolution, the genius shines through. The Stones were never better - and that's saying a lot.

Just a re-packaging of the same disks with a few extra items. Better to buy "Ladys and Gentelmen" on blu-ray.
