Better

On this version of Gimme Shelter, played next door to me at the Barclays Center on Saturday night, Mick Jagger is reduced to a backup singer—probably the right call when Mary J. Blige is belting it out—and Keith Richards and Ron Wood look like they need an adrenaline shot.
Still—it’s better than they were in London. (And the critics loved the show.)

Thanks for the post Rich. Agreed, this is pretty bad. However, as a Stones fan of really only one or two eras (early 60’s til early 70’s, which I think most folks would agree were the best eras), these guys were never really that hot live. In fact, I can’t recall where I read it, but someone once commented that it took the Stones about 10 years to actually play in tune together….Thanks again
