A review from opening night 1972. The golden era!
The Province: “Traditionally rough and messy and strong, the Stones were rough and messy and strong on Saturday, launching into a set that caught fire – and then gradually flickered out. Familiar to begin with, the central segment relied on slow blues and new material from the Exile on Main Street album – much of which, lyrically inaudible, left little impression except as an extension of Rolling Stones style. And, when they had almost lost the energy, almost rolled to a point of musical inertia, they saved themselves with familiarity again – something recognizable to cheer for, songs that one knew the words to so it didn’t matter if the sound was turning to spaghetti halfway down the room.”
