DieselDaisy Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 I'd (hard to fucking believe) had never seen this...awesome- (2015 Axl must be pissed at what he's done to himself)- Those three performances of 'Salt of the Earth' with Axl and Izzy in Atlantic City were the first occasions upon which the Rolling Stones had played that song in twenty-one years. In some respects it was the first time they had ever played the song live since the version which closes Rock and Roll Circus (1968) consisted merely of Mick and Keith singing over a pre-recorded backing track.I believe ''Salt of the Earth'' has only been played twice since those three 1989 performances! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has only been played once to an instrumental playback and live five times.- The first filmed rendition was for the taping of the 1968 television special The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus (not released until 1996). However, this version features Keith Richards and Mick Jagger singing live while sitting with the audience as the backing track that appeared on Beggars Banquet is played.- It was then revived 21 years later for three performances in Atlantic City during the 1989-1990 Steel Wheels/Urban Jungle Tour, where the Stones were joined onstage by Axl Rose and Izzy Stradlin of Guns N' Roses (Video on YouTube). Axl and Izzy were given their choice of songs, and when they chose this, the Stones had forgotten it, and had to listen to it to remember[citation needed].- Jagger and Richards on YouTube for the 2001 "The Concert for New York City", commemorating the fallen of September 11, 2001, although they changed the lyrics to make its message more positive (most notably "Let's drink to the good and the evil" was changed to "Let's drink to the good not the evil").- Its only other performance was in London, Twickenham Rugby Ground, on September 20, 2003 during the Licks Tour.

DieselDaisy Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 One freaky song selection for those lucky enough to be at Twickenham in 2003. It is one of those songs where you wonder why they do not dust it off more often? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estranged Reality Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Alan Niven's anybody got an MP3 of this?flacmy assumption would be that the FLAC would be a lossless rip of the YouTube video, but i could be wrong. that's why i asked for an MP3. I have a feeling it's more likely that whoever uploaded that track to YouTube did so from an MP3 and not a FLAC file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuzeville Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Axl sounds insanely good on this... I had it on a bootleg CD and for the longest time thought it was Izzy singing the opening verse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

classicrawker Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 One of my favorite Stones songs. I think the Stones have only played that song twice live. There are great pro quality audio and videos of the compete show available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
