Palace Revolution 2000
I always thought the line up here was Keith on guitar, Brian on harp, and Jagger on maracas. That there was only one guitar.
Then the other day I was listening to a alternate version of the cut, and during the first part I was already thinking to myself that it did not sound much like Brian's early harmonica style. Early on Brian was way more adventurous and cleaner on the notes than Jagger. Jagger had the bluesy howl. But this sounded like Jagger trying to play like Brian. Then during the guitar solo, there was plainly a second guitar to be heard, strumming chords. Anyone ever notice that?

I think the lead guitar break sounds exactly like Keith.

I always assumed it was Brian playing harmonica on the album version but then, I too, heard the BBC version and you can clearly hear two guitars playing as well as the harmonica. I figured that for that version Mick must be playing the harmonica but then I wondered if it was him playing on the album version.

To MickTaylorfan, if you check the Hot Stuff section on this site, I'm sure you cna find the whole Beat Beat at the Beeb album.

I wonder if the BBC version has Mick playing harmonica simply because if they're playing the song live, if Brian played the harmonica like on the studio version, what would Mick do?
