5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Some Girls Companion Piece

Great sound quality and a great selection of songs from when the Rolling Stones were about to lose their grip on their status until Some Girls came out and renewed their energy. This is a monster collection and one that goes hand-in-hand with the Some Girls album for a great night of perfect Rolling Stones rock.

I'm a huge fan of the Stones and just love the fact that these gems are being released. The Rolling Stones are in their element when they play live. The energy captured during this show is incredible. Some Girls live, hard to go wrong there. Love it!

Excellent 'Lost' concert from the Stones before their tours turned into a circus show.
It's funny because almost nobody in the Stones collecting community knew this even existed!
The Vinyl Pressing sounds GREAT! I would highly recommend the Vinyl edition, you won't be dissapointed.
And the Boys play with a rawness that they would soon lose.
Great Show!

5.0 out of 5 stars Stones at their peak

I am a little biased but Some Girls is my favorite Stones album. This performance is off the charts. Mick has so much energy, it's unbelievable. The m,usic is spot on and the audio is superb. Picture not to bad considering the source. This Blu-Ray should be in everyone's collection, a gem.

Sehr guter Kontakt, Erhalt der Ware hat etwas lange gedauert, war aber vorher so angekündigt. Positiv: erste Lieferung bei Versender war beschädigt und MuL hat gleich die Schallplatte neu bestellt und dann an mich versandt. War immer auf dem Laufenden dank Nennung der Verfolgungsnummer.
Platte kann ich noch nicht beurteilen da ich gerade im Urlaub bin..

Es un disco que goza de un sonido excelente,y con una selecion de temas muy buena, dejando de lado un poco a las de siempre, fue el disco de promoción en directo de Some Girls y al mismo tiempo lo hace grande. muy bueno solo espero conseguir también la versión en Cd

5.0 out of 5 stars Handsome girls on the balcony.
Reviewed in France on June 13, 2016

Je connaissais le fameux live 4cd Handsome girls de la tournée US '78. Le concert à Dallas Texas en faisait bien évidemment partie.

Pas de surprise donc, d'autant que le contenu du DVD était disponible sur youtube...

N'empêche. Avoir le double lp de ce concert est totalement inespéré, émouvant même. Le concert dégage une énergie tellurique. Jagger éructe comme un âne en rut. Richards tente d'échapper au stress de la prison en foutant une belle raclée à sa Telecaster. Charlie est enfin mixé en avant et groove comme un malade avec Bill Wyman impeccable (légèrement en anticipation sur les titres rapides comme de bien entendu).

La tracklist explore largement le dernier album : sept titres à la suite quand même. A mon avis, certains morceaux sont ici encore un cran au dessus des originaux studio. C'est dire si ce double LP live in Texas est indispensable. Et le plus marrant, c'est que les titres "nouveaux" (70's) sonnent mieux que les anciens des 60's (JJF, HTW, BS).

Là où "Love you live" montrait ses limites (Paris 76), ici Woody est nettement plus intégré au son du groupe. Le tissage entre les deux guitares est jouissif. On peut écouter un titre en se concentrant sur l'une (gauche = Woody) ou l'autre (droite = Keith) guitare. Sur les nouveaux titres surtout.

Et puis le son, remixé et remasterisé par Bob Clearmountain, est proprement exceptionnel. C'est aussi Bob C. qui a remixé Sweet summer sun (2013), From the Vault (Hampton 81, Marquee 71,Tokyo Dome 90), Brussels Affair 73 (1988), Some Girls (1978), Tattoo You (1981), Still Life (1982), Sticky fingers (1971), Exile (1972), etc... C'est dire le sérieux du mec, sorte de Rudy Van Gelder du rock.

En prime, on a le cd pour la voiture. J'ai dû payer le tout 26 €, ce qui est absolument incroyable pour deux lp + 1dvd + 1cd...

Que dire de plus? Foncez!
