I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

This is an excellent piece of work and I should know; I was happily at the first of these shows in Ft. Worth. Stevie Wonder and The Staples Singers were just so damn good. I was sitting in an area overlooking the floor where the equipment is driven in and Keith and Mick Taylor were down there, dancing and rocking out to those opening acts too. It was so much fun and a great little memory. When we first walked in to the auditorium, Mick J. was sitting at a piano taking photos of the audience as they looked for their seats. And yes, The Stones were tight, wonderful, full of energy, and truly at that time they were The Greatest Rock & Roll Band in the World! This documentary reminded me again why I loved them so much!

I happened to be lucky enough in '74 to be in Houston,TX when this was first in theaters! I got to see this with all the special sound equipment that toured with the movie. Speakers stacked as high as the screen on either side and a mixing board set up in the middle of the theater. They even had concert posters and t-shirts in the lobby! This was as close to the real thing as possible. I couldn't hear for an hour after I left the theater, unbelievable sound system that was installed for this concert film. I seen the Stones in '81 at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas and live in front of the stage didn't seem to be any louder than that theater was that summer afternoon in Houston! If you have a home movie theater, get it and crank it up and if not, get one and this movie!!

Forget Hyde Park, forget Altamont: if you only buy one RS live performance, it must be Ladies and Gentlemen. Here is a band at the peak of their prodigous powers, consistently rocking on every number across a veritable feast of classic tunes. This 1972 film captures the band in fine fettle in Texas on their Exile on Main Street tour. It is a straight show, no backstage footage, no interviews, no filler, no lame alternate versions, just straight forward rock n roll.Why this film has never been given an official release is beyond me. It is long overdue for release. Instead the public are treated to turkeys such as the Hyde Park show.If you're a classic rock fan and haven't watched Ladies n Gentlemen, get a copy, you won't regret it.

With all the re-mastering of other concerts why hasn't this one been released. I'm getting sick and tired of the current Stones live productions, very repetitious and boring.I seen this movie twice within the space of a week almost 30 years ago and it is still firmly etched in my memory.The Taylor years are simply the best and this concert showcases this brilliant (and under rated) guitarist his at his peak. Trademen Keef and Ronnie just don't cut like Master Craftsman Tayor did.Great set of songs taken from the Stones' golden era of writing and performing.
