Monkey Man was pretty good live. Definitely better than I thought it would be. Gimme Shelter sounds better on bad 72 audience recordings than other, better sources sometimes, but it's better on the album.
But a couple of songs just really take off live, like Rip This Joint, All Down The Line or Bitch. It doesn't matter who plays with Keith, Ronnie or Mick T. - these just rock my ass off!
The ballads, like Wild Horses or Beast of Burden never seem to hold up for me live.
