Title: My second copy of this LP was not sticky nor did it have fingerprints on the vinyl
Review: After reading some other reviews, I was very skeptical about buying a new copy of Sticky Fingers. I received my purchase today and compared it to the same LP that I bought in approx. 1972. Well the sound quality is not bad; it's just different from the 1971 purchase, but that was not a big deal. In some other way, I thought this new mastering was better. As other reviews revealed, my copy did not have any fingerprints, track hiss, pops or skips, and the vinyl was actually thicker and heavier than the original. I will always keep my first LP - it was loved very much, thus it received some scratches and pops and fingerprints with a subtle bit of sugar from mixed drinks. This pressing was not recorded or mastered at the same volume as the original LP, or in comparison to most other albums I own. What is good about that is you can actually hear Mick's guitar playing clearly, and you can hear Keith and Mick blend together and separately very nicely - the vocal and drums do not drown out the guitars - it was mixed very well, and not terribly compressed because of Mick's known presence. I have given some thought as to what is missing about this particular master, and it really has nothing to do with the mastering sound volume. This pressing lacks some of the "fidelity" in the "hi-fidelity" of the original LP. What is missing is the actual "stylus being pulled through the recorded groove" giving us what we are accustomed to hearing when we listen to an LP - that universal low level hiss between songs. Not a big deal. Yes, the zipper is gone. No big deal. If you really want a zipper, cut one out of an old pair of jeans and glue it to the cover!! Don't let the bad reviews and the "Made In France" comments keep you from buying this LP. Please allow me to digress back to 1971 (yes, I am 65). When I was a teenager, I was not allowed to listen to rock music in my parents home or in my new car (because my Dad had purchased it) - yes, I know all that is weird. At that time, 8-track tape was the preferred medium of the decade! For my high school graduation, one of my older sister's bought me an 8-track for my relatively new car. Another older sister bought me my first rock albums (5) but on 8-track tape. I clearly remember the albums: CCR - Cosmos Factory; Steppenwolf - Live; Grand Funk - Live; Beatles - Abbey Road and Stones - Sticky Fingers. I had heard all of these albums at my cousins home, along with many other rock albums. Other than Steppenwolf' "The Pusher" and "Don't Step On the Grass, Sam", the highlight of these gifts was the entire Stones album. This sister was 18 years older than me, and I always thought she was "kind of a drag". Now, she was the best sister any younger brother could have!!! Within the next year I bought a turntable and began my collection of LP's, now about 1000. I still buy vinyl today. There really is nothing better than analog sound in this 2019 world!! Back to this Stones album: One of there best ever!! It is hard to find another rocker like "Can't You Hear Me Knocking".One of the most important attributes to this album was the presence of Mick Taylor. Same with other albums recorded with Mick Taylor's talent - that period of Stones records are their best! Ron is good (he was better with Rod Stewart and Faces) but he is not great. Keith and Mick J. did not treat Mick fairly and gave him less credit and recognition for creativity that he deserved. I have never seen the Stones perform live. I missed this years very short and expensive USA tour. They will be back in another year or so. They may be in wheelchairs, but Keith Richards will never die. His DNA has been altered in a good way, with many illicit substances which well preserved his body and mind.

Title: Get Your Leeds Lungs Out alone makes this worth the $19 for the Super Deluxe MP3 album
Review: I haven't listened to the remastered actual album that much so I can't comment on this remaster vs. previous, but the alternate versions of songs presented here are worth having for anyone who's a fan of the album (and I rarely care about alternate versions). The real meat & potatoes here though is Get your Leeds Lungs out on disc 3, which is nothing short of a stunning live album, which is what the rest of this review will focus on. The Super Deluxe Version is a must purchase for any Stones fan for the Leeds Lungs album, regardless of how many live Stones albums you own.At first glance at the tracklist I was a little disappointed because 8 of the 13 Leeds Lungs tracks are on Get Yer Ya Ya's Out, and another is a bonus track on the deluxe Ya Ya's. However, after one listen I was no longer disappointed but in complete awe of what an incredible album it is. Every song on both this album and Ya Ya's is better on Leeds Lungs. The version of Satisfaction is unlike any version I've heard before- it's virtually devoid of the signature riff but still awesome. I love Leeds Lungs so much, that I would put it up there with the Stones' Brussels Affair and The Who's Live at Leeds as one of my 3 favorite live albums of all time- it would be a tough call between this & Brussels Affair for my absolute favorite. The guitar work on this album is so intense you almost have to listen to it on headphones to pick up everything that's going on.Even the songs on tons of Stones Live albums are substantially better on this album. I own 15 live Stones albums, so I didn't think I'd ever hear a live version of Brown Sugar, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Honky Tonk Women, or Street Fighting Man that blew me away because I've heard so many versions of them, but I was wrong. The versions on here, especially of Brown Sugar, are substantially better than on any other live Stones album. All the songs off Stick Fingers performed live here are incredible; the version of Love in Vain is the best live version I've heard of it, and both Stray Cat Blues & Live With Me blow away their Ya Ya's versions.The version of Midnight Rambler on here is my favorite of any version I've heard- that song alone makes this album worth the price for me. Lastly, the two Chuck Berry covers are absolute stunners, especially Let It Rock, which blows away the Chuck Berry version (and I'm a huge Chuck Berry fan). If you're considering buying this album, buy the Super Deluxe MP3 for the Get Your Leeds Lungs out album. It might be the best $19 you've ever spent.

Review: PÅyta przyszÅa do mnie w kartonowym pudle. Problem w tym, że zostaÅa d niego wrzucona bez jakiegokolwiek osÅoniÄcia w karton dla osÅony winyli. Z tego powodu przednia strona okÅadki ma naderwanÄ
foliÄ, bo jak przypuszczam uszkodziÅa siÄ podczas transportu. Uważam, ze takie wrzucenie dla mnie pÅyty jak kawaÅka miÄsa do pudÅa jest dla mnie obraźliwe jako klienta i uszkodziÅo foliÄ z tej pÅyty. Jest mi bardzo przykro, tym bardziej że przesyÅka byÅa opóźniona i be problemu mogÄ to wybaczyÄ, ale naderwanej folii na pÅycie już nie.

Review: Ik heb dit album al op cd, maar uit nostalgie heb ik het nu ook op vinyl gekocht. Vroeger werd de hoes eigenlijk met een echte broekrits geleverd. Jammer dat dit er nu niet meer is , het maakte de hoes origineel. Sister Morphine op dit album is mijn lievelings song .
