I've never seen anyone work the crowd like he did, most of which had never heard of The Stones, the energy he had (he's now 70). If anything, better now than ever before, or at least he was on that night. Jagger sang Sympathy For The Devil and the crowd spontaneously broke into the whoo whoo backing vocals, even though 99 per cent of them would not have the slightest idea what that song was. Ten minutes later they were still singing it.
