The Great Lost Live Album


Unknown Album title (?)

ROLLING STONES RECORDS
Date: October 1972
Mixing at Olympic Studios
Only cover slicks exists
Not released

Track listing: (unsure)
- Brown Sugar
- Bitch
- Gimme Shelter
- Tumbling Dice
- Sweet Virginia
- You Can´t Always Get What You Want
- All Down The Line
- Bye Bye Johnny
- Rip This Joint
- Uptight/Satisfaction

Note: A live compilation from the American Tour 1972, mainly from Philadelphia 20th/21st July, some from Houston 25th June and Forth Worth 24th June.
This track listing came from various sources; actually these are remixed soundboard recordings which were taped or pressed to acetates and get their way to unauthorized records (ex.: "Keep Your Motor Runnin`" LP YY4U72-A/B) and a US radio broadcast *, for what was thought to be this album.
This could be a gatefold double album with Stevie Wonder as opening act on disc 1
as planned before to "Get Yer Ya Ya-Ya´s Out".

*US Radio WMMS/Radio Cleveland 11th August 1972
(Broadcast of the unreleased 1972 Tour album)

- You Can´t Always Get What You Want
- Sweet Virginia
- Bitch
- All Down The Line
- Happy
- Tumbling Dice
- Rip This Joint
- Gimme Shelter
- Brown Sugar
- Uptight/Satisfaction

(according to Nico Zentgraf)

Note: Oddly two songs in this broadcast are from different shows, "Happy" is from the "Ladies & Gentleman, The Rolling Stones" movie soundtrack and still some dates are unsure.

  1. I was lent an acetate (It was not a bootleg) of the 1972 Philadelphia show with a similar track listing but kicking off with Gimme Shelter. The cover was white and written on it was 'Let It Bleed Live' which even at the time (around 1975) was a little strange since The Stones had long left Decca. It was said by the guy who lent it that it was a 1972 live album that was shelved. I took a r to r tape of it and still have it....somewhere! PD

  2. Hi PD
    As the story goes, it seems that the first bootlegs to emerge were taken from tape or acetate. Some years ago someone tried to sell me one acetate on a "Audiodisc" label (nothing written on this one), which, according to the seller, it was also the "lost live album", but, I had hesitated and didin´t get a chance to hear the music on it, he sold it right away to other collector. If you find your reel tape from it, you can check out by compare it to the bootlegs recordings available elsewhere (check the link above - Revelations on the Rolling Stones). Best
    Thank You Kindly
