 - Shine a Light is Pretty DimDie hard fans of the Stones will be disappointed with this CD. It is comprised of clips of weathered looking Stones interspersed with some abbreviated interviews. The overall affect was was boring. The only redeeming points were the duet with Christina Aguilera and Bill Clinton introducing and hugging the band members. Mick never looked so bad, but he can still move. If there was a point that Sorcese was trying to make, I missed it. I'm sorry I bought into all the presale hype. It wasn't worth it for me. Rating:  - Grandson's JoyGrandson just entered the US Air Force and isn't allowed much in the way of personal belongings. He IS allowed his treasured Stones music and was excited to receive Shine A Light from his Nana. Thanks Rating:  - A little disapointedIs a great record ! No Rolling Stones record could be different! However, I felt a little disapointed when I listen to it because it lacks the force that we normally expect to hear on a live rolling stones record. Mick Jagger voice is very weak, probably because of age, probably it was not his best moment, I can't tell. And the rest of the band also in my opinion sound weak. But if you are a RS fan, you should have it ! Rating: - Longtime FanThis is the best live material I have heard from the band since Get Yer Ya Yas Out! Rating:  - Get "Butterfield Original Lost Elektra Sessions" Instead"Shine A Light" is a very sad testament to a once great band. Supposed to highlight their extensive back catalog, yet nothing here written since since early-mid 1980's. Highlight is "Jumpin' Jack Flash" with original organ/synthesizer part played on guitar. All down hill thereafter... Don't participate in supporting this. Your money is much better spent on the referenced Butterfield disk.
