Probably this topic is not exactly new, but i'd to know why the Stones are releasing a new live fucking album. I cant' stand this kind of thing, is too much, they're abusing!
We already got in last four years No Security, Forty Licks, Forty Licks special edition, SFTD remixes, 4 box set DVDs, 22 (!!!) remastered ABKCO albuns (I bought about ten), Jump Back US edition, some singles here and there, that fucking DVD with canadiam shows...what more they want beside our money? Because me, well, I'd like a new album with NEW & good stuff.
The fact is, imo, Mick & Keith are too old to produce new good stuff, and there's no more drugs enough to make them work with some property and delivery a decent album. Too bad, but they're doing exactly the same dozens of other decadent bands like them- just living from the glorious past.
Bye Sir, and thanks for those 10, 15 years tops of good services.

No, this is not a new topic. We've had 3 or 4 like this. Live album now is superfluous but we'll still buy it. |

but it's a sad reminder - no matter how much many of us lifelongers want to deny it - of how our mighty heroes have slipped into a pathetic oldies act. |

Hey Jair.... I'm here with nothing to do and then....out of the blue... something really weird came to my mind....well, let's go.....Don't you think Shirley (Charlie's wife) looks like Ana Maria Braga?!? I really need a brazuca to confirm or deny that for me...... |

All this releases, less No Security, were commercial's hits, inclusive Jump Back. The Stones are selling material from the past, the people (80% of they) not are thinking on a new studio album. They want to hear Satisfaction, not a new song called "Always Forever", and all the commercial releases are for that people and for us we will have (with lucky) 1 album x decade. Sad but true. |

If the Rolling Stones put an entire live show, maybe a club show, on record I'd buy it. Those cut up things they are releasing, where the songs come from a variety of shows is what turns me off. It is probably the same reason No Security bombed. Wasn't jarring to hear Mick chattering on in a few different lanquages throughout the album. Blech. |

Wait 5-10 years and you will have 1 official Double live CD each month. |

When I started to listen to the Stones, back in 1979, I was 14. No one could think at this time that the Stones would survive (after the punk, the disco, the new wave, the techno, the RnB, the rap, the grunge, .. etc).
25 years later, they are still alive, active, planning new tours, working on new projects (solo or with the band). There is no other band worldwide with the same endurance.
So please don't blame them to much. I think they deserve to live a little from "the glorious past"... |

fair enough point in principle, but they key words are "a little"
By the time their next studio album comes out it will be closer to eight years than seven since the last one.
I think to describe that gap as "a little" time to rest on theur creative laurels is stretching the bounds of credibility a little.... |

Don't agree, even if they stop right now they couldn't be blamed! |

Nobody would blame them if they stopped. They've earned a rest. But to not put out new material for so long is pretty lazy. |

thats what I mean.
Either admit youre purely a nostalgia act and content to rest on your laurels - of if youre not, do something to prove it. |

100% True. If they don't want to record another album, it's OK but if you release 2 live albums and 2 Music Videos on that time is veeery laaaaazy. Where are the vaults? They can do an album each year for 10 years with the unreleased songs there. |

face it, our boys have been coasting for a while when it comes to 'new' product.
But seeing I'm a completist, I'll buy the damn CD anyhow! |

I'll be keeping an eye on the used cd bins, disc 2 has my interest, there's no way I'm gonna pay 25 bucks for it, it's not that critical

I'd rather spend money on a band that cares about its fans, and is still creative.

Depends of the attitude and the Stones' attitude on the last years (about the new material) not is very good.

I'd say their attitude since b2b is very bloody lax. |
