[@johnwilde6120]

Thank you so very much. It’s always a blast when I catch footage of the Stones that I’m not familiar with. If at all possible please keep’im coming….Thank you again from Toronto, Canada…

[@bendyment4164]

You are most welcome from Hamilton, Canada, haha

I attended this concert with my friend Lew , we were a hundred meters from the stage , it was loud , you could feel the compression from the bass speakers vibrating through your chest, the crowd was in motion with the music , 'Brown Sugar' opened the show sounding better than the studio version, and the concert only improved from there . When ever I hear the Stones the sensation of that live performance returns , I understand that this is not uncommon after experiencing great artists at the height of their fame.

[@bigbrotherisasob]

And that's why they were #1. Great stuff.

[@jessewolf6806]

Still are!

[@AntonioCarlos-tr9po]

Stones, Stones, Stones
Para sempre
São únicos
A banda da história do rock and roll

[@patdwyer5204]

Thanks... probably the best live "Happy" vocal from KR that I remember hearing.

[@dannydine5263]

Was thinking the same thing myself.

[@tonysanchez7862]

Brilliant-superb job all round! The splicing together if the video and audio-really makes this thing come alive-Many Thanks Ben!
