I have been using Macintosh Audio for OS X aka MAX... works great, sucks if the files aren't tagged but most of the stuff I download is tagged properly with cue sheets, easy to add the art if needed... does pretty much every type of file format I can think of... for those few occasions, I have RAR expander and some others as backup.

Cannot describe how cool it was to see them release this finally. So cool that the world can share what we have enjoyed for so long.

I am surprised though that no one here has mentioned the SFM version they chose to include. Its the shitty one! Out of the two versions on the Europe 73 boot (I'm assuming these were from the early and late show respectively), they official release chose the crap version! I can't understand it. This is not just personal semantics. The one used is an out of tune mess at the end, compared to the superbly clean MT and band perfectly coming together to close it out. Surely I'm not dreaming this??

How can I download this, since I live in Brazil?

first question, did you go to either of the two sites selling it? or any illegal download sites yet?

Yes I did, and they say it isn't available in my country

And I went to torrentz.com and couldn't find it

go to demonoid... send me a PM with your email... you will hopefully know how to download torrents and decode flac files, and this is a good time to learn, which is really simple... and you will be able to get it... if you want, I can also just send you an email connecting you to the mp3's via my dropbox account.

Thx for the help anyway! This is great... Although this version of YCAGWYW is subpar compared to the one I had, with the epic Mick Taylor solo blending perfect with the sax solo

Oh my god... I just started doing an a/b, and only made ti gimme shelter... dynamic, is not what it is, it is the opposite. The music is limited, crushed... honestly, I didn't and still don't think there's much wrong with the mastering on this official release. It isn't brickwalled or loud, i hear ever instrument and when I play it loud, it doesn't clip or distort... this dynamic remaster, the first thing I noticed was it was quiet, but not a good quiet, there audience was removed, and the drums sounded flat... do ont bother, or bother and see for yourself, b/c your mileage may vary... it's all about our ears...

I never could quite figure out why the Stones chose to release the turgid, slow as molasses and insomnia-curing Love You Live instead of the Brussels recording, other than the fact that Mick Taylor is blazing throughout and was no longer in the band. The truth is, the 1975-77 Stones had as much in common musically with the 1973 band as the 1972 Dolphins have with their current incarnation.
