Only One Concert June 22, 2009

The previous DVD release, a Best Buy exclusive, had the same title and cover art, but included three discs, including footage from three different concerts. This Blu-Ray release contains only one concert (which accounts for the lower price).
If you have the Best Buy edition, you'll probably want to hang onto it, as the Blu-Ray only has about one-third of the footage.
The concert presented here, from Austin, Texas, is a good one; although at 90 minutes you know there's a fair amount left out. It's rare for videos to include an entire concert but I'd prefer to see the whole show and pay a bit more.
The picture quality is what you'd expect from a high-definition broadcast, but the DVD release looked pretty good, so the difference is not stunning. The DTS 5.1 sound mix, however, is a big improvement (uncompressed PCM stereo is also available). I cranked this up good and loud and it's the next best thing to being there. If you're considering getting the Blu-Ray, the audio is the best reason to do so.
And if you're a Stones fan who missed the original release, this is a no-brainer. The Stones perform "Sway" in concert for the first time (Keith and Ronnie had to learn the song, as Keith didn't play on the original and Ronnie hadn't joined the Stones yet). A few other oldies ("Get Off My Cloud" and "Under my Thumb") are added to mix up the otherwise standard playlist. At this low price, it's well worth it.

I saw the concert 3 times. I have 2 versions of the CD. I have the regular DVD. And now I have the Blu-ray. Of course the live concerts are the best, but this is the second best way to enjoy the concert. Sit back and enjoy the boys on a 52" HDTV in Blu-ray. If you are a Stones fan, this is a must have. If you are just so-so with them, buy this anyway. Whatever you do, buy this.

I've been disapointed because i already have the Stones on DVD with three shows and when i saw this blue ray thereis only the Atlantic city gig.
It's like being there! September 13, 2009

With my 52" TV I can experience the Stones as if the concert were taking place in my living room. Rock on!

i never saw this dvd but i had to give it a rating . im here to talk about another rolling stones video that i would give 5 stars. i am looking for the emotional rescue video without the thermo. i want no thermo at all.i saw it on the solid gold show back in 1981 and it was recently on you tube but they removed it.what is the reason for this. did someone buy the rights or something.they have it on the rolling stones vhs tape with all their music videos .but emotional rescue was cut down to nothing with thermo shots. i would pay 300 dollars to get the full version without the thermo shots. thank you
