REVIEW:

Taken from the BBC 60 years celebration for the Stones career this release presents the Wiltern Theatre 2002 concert; 4 tracks from this concert were officially released by the Stones themselves on Four Flicks in 2003. Here we get Can’t You Hear Me Knocking and You Don’t Have To Mean It from Live Licks, Can’t You Hear Me Knocking features Jim Keltner on percussions. It shall also be mentioned that Everybody Needs Somebody To Love that was included in Live Licks see Solomon Burke duetting with Jagger with the famous scene where he donated Jagger a huge cloak naming him the true King of Rock’n’ Roll. This was a peculiar show with seldom played songs like Stray Cat Blues, Hand Of Fate, No Expectations, Dance, That’s How Strong My Love Is, Going To A Go Go, Rock Me Baby, You Don’t Have To Mean It and Tumbling Dice played for the only time as encore, too bad the whole show has not been broadcasted, the Stones themselves having decided to release the full Madison Square Garden concert from January 18th 2003 instead. This is a wonderful release, the audio quality being superb, the setlist helps of course to mark this as one of the best late Stones shows also thanks to the sidemen on stage: Bobby Keys, the New West Horns, Blondie Chaplin and Lisa Fischer. There are some drawbacks, however, for instance Ron Wood solo on pedal steel guitar for No Expectations is overshadowed by Keith Richards electric guitar accompaniment that should have been lower. Very enjoyable is You Don’t Have To Mean It with Ron Wood on organ and a fantastic brass section that shines also on Rock Me Bay and Bitch. Particular is also Tumbling Dice long version that closes the show with its extended refrain at the end. Packaging is excellent with the two albums pressed on heavy pink colored vinyl.


The best toys are the ones that are both educational and multi-purposeful.
