Customer Reviews
4½ stars. Great live material
Almost all of the Stones' numerous live albums are worth a listen, and "Love You Live" is among the best.
It features several classics and some well-chosen lesser-known tracks as well, and the sound is excellent, as is the material.
(Okay, I could have done without the "disco-rock" of "Hot Stuff", but almost eveything else is great.)
Jagger's vocal on "Honky Tonk Women" sounds just a little bit tired compared to the one on "Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out", but it's not bad at all, and Keith Richards' bluesy rhythm guitar playing is rock-steady all the way through.
The Stones do a killer rendition of the mean, sleazy blues-rocker "Star Star".
They groove on the slow blues "You Gotta Move" and perform excellent live versions of "It's Only Rock 'N' Roll" and the irresistable "Brown Sugar", and the seven-minute epics "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and "Sympathy For The Devil" are raw and menacing.
New lead guitarist Ron Wood fills Mick Taylor's shoes with no problem, and the band's sound is fleshed out by keyboardist/organist Billy Preston (who played with the Beatles) and pianist Ian Steward, the original sixth Stone. Stewart in particular plays some wonderful boogie piano.
The band tackles the classics during a little "blues set" on disc two, performing a surprisingly authentic-sounding "Mannish Boy" (the Muddy Waters classic), a superbly groovy "Crackin' Up" (I'm not sure that's what he sings during the chorus, though), and a fine take on Howlin' Wolf's "The Little Red Rooster" with some great slide guitar. Okay, so Jagger isn't the Wolf, but he does a good job.
This fine album can be enjoyed by hardcore fans and more casual ones alike, since it boasts a strong song selection as well as showcasing some lesser-known gems that don't usually show up on various Stones compilations.
THE ROLLING STONES - AT THEIR BEAUTIFUL BEST
This album is amazing. The rolling stones - perhaps the best riffs band ever, are her, at their most best live. This album captures them at their peak with superb performances such as you cant always get what you want, happy and jumpin jack flash, which are unmatched by any other live album. Its mix of huge rock riffs and catchy tunes which merge to produce a mass of easy-listening tracks which is often hard to cpature with live albums. For any stones fans it's got to be a sure buy, the band are captured superbly here and that is all there is to say - i mean the best band in the world at their best!
