J-Card Comment I love the "No Security" era, and I think many fans of their
post-Mick Taylor agree that this is one of the strongest tours the Stones have
done since their first "comeback" tour in 1989. The performances were generally
a cut above, and the setlist was generally an outstanding mix of relatively new
and old material. To me, any set that contains "Respectable" and "Some Girls"
is worth having, and the rest is gravy. I think this was an "on" night for the
band, based on the shows from the tour that I've listened to attentively.

There have been multiple versions posted -- I believe at least a couple audience
versions as well as the raw ALD -- but of them all I enjoy this remastered
version posted by "midnight rambler" in July 2006. This is obviously
subjective, but I think he did a good job in drawing out a fuller sound than is
represented on a typical ALD along with immediacy of the raw board. This has a
depth that one doesn't typically hear on a pure ALD source. Again -- purely
subjective; I don't have the raw ALD handy but perhaps someone can post that for
comparison purposes.
