Listening to this tune in the car today. Absolutely love it, far better than Back of My hand IMO. Don't like all of the rareties but love this tune. If and that's a big if they ever play a club again I would love to hear this one played live. Could be like Little Red Rooster at the el mocambo on love you live.

Won't happen - but I agree with your take on the song. Blows BOMH (not a bad tune, mind you) away....

Listening to it right now. That's where the Stones came from. Just love it.

Perfect guitar, snare drum and harp sound. This is the Stones...

WOW!! Four posts all agreeing consecutively.HOORAY!

Make it 5 in a row.!!
Ditto

I @#$%& HATE THIS SONG*


*this does not accurately reflect the views of poster Nikkibong. He just couldn't stand to see so much agreement.

OH NO, you broke the world record!

Hey - I didn't realize you could post @#$%& on this site now - nice upgrade, BV!

@#$%&
experiment

"...no longer shall you trudge 'cross my peaceful mind."

"...no longer shall you trudge 'cross my peaceful mind."

Hooray!

I mean - Hoo @#$%& Ray!

Very nice and laid back blues song. Lovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeee it!

The harp makes my nuts bleed.

@#$%& shit dick R.E.M ass

No, some of it is banned, still.

Bought it when it first came out on the Mixed Emotions CD single. When I first heard it, I wondered why they didn't include this song on Steel Wheels.

yeah fancy man blues is really a great song, and, like DGA35, i do not understand why they didn't include it on Steel wheels. i really like the solo guitar on this tune

but, Jackass, i think you have a too bad opinion of Back of my hand : listen again and again to it and you'll see it's a wonderfel song !

Awesome little leads by KR, but my fav part is the harp solo, after which, Mick screams...YEAAAAAA! But really, even Chuck's piano is amazing on this track, its begging to be played live.

Honestly, I really enjoy this song too. But it DIDN'T fit on Steel Wheels. I mean, it's all really simple, kind of flat, really cool rock music. A slow song like Fancy Man Blues wouldn't fit on it.

Great song.
When I first heard "Back Of My Hand" and that I was told "there's a fantastic blues song on the new album", I was expecting a great song like "fancy man blues"...

Agreed. but the same argument aptly applies to BOMH...I don't think it works on ABB, either

I prefer Back Of My Hand to Fancy Man Blues, but they're both great. Fancy Man Blues would have been one of the highlights of Steel Wheels if they'd included it.

I'm also glad we can say @#$%& on this site now. I'm so @#$%& glad I'm going to post this song from the South Park movie:


It's Easy MMMKay

[Mr. Mackey:] There are times when you get suckered in
By drugs and alchohol and sex with women-mmkay
But its when you do these things too much
That you've become an addict and must get back in touch
You can do it Its all up to you-mmmmmkay
With a little plan you can change your life tooo-day
You dont have to spend your life addicted to smack
Homeless on the streets giving handjobs for crack
Follow my plan and very soon you will see-eeyy, its easy mmkay

Step 1: Instead of ass say buns, like "kiss my buns" or "you're a buns hole"

Step 2: Instead of shit say poo, as in "bull poo", "poo head" and this "poo is cold"

Step 3: With bitch drop the t because bich is latin for generosity

Step 4: Dont say @#$%& any more because @#$%& is the worst word that you can say

So just use the word mmmkay!

[Children:] We can do it its all up to us-mmmkay (mmmkay)
With a little plan we can change our lives tooo-day
Mr, Mackey: you can change it today
Everyone: We don't have to spend our lives shootin up in the trash
Homeless on the streets giving handjobs for cash
Follow this plan and very soon you will see-eey
Its easy mmkay!

[Mr. Mackey:] Step 1 Children: Instead of ass say buns,
like kiss my buns or you're a buns hole

[Mr. Mackey:] Step 2 Children: Instead of shit say poo,
as in bull poo, poo head and this poo is cold

[Mr. Mackey:] Step 3 Children: With bitch drop the t
because bich is latin for generosity

[Mr. Mackey:] Step 4 Children: Dont say @#$%& any more

[Everyone:] Cuz @#$%& is the worst word that you can say
[Children:] @#$%& is the worst word that you can say
We shouldn't say @#$%&, no we shouldn't say @#$%&, @#$%& nooooo!!!
[Mr. Mackey:] Your cured, you can go!
[Everyone:] We don't have to spend our lives shootin up in the trash
homeless on the streets giving handjobs for cash
Follow this plan and very soon you will saaay
Its easy mmmkay!
[Children:] It's easy mmmkay!
[Mr. Mackey:] It's easy mmmkay!
[Children:] It's easy mmmkay!
[Mr. Mackey:] It's easy mmmkaaaaaaaayy
[Children:] It's easy mmm
It's easy mmm
It's easy mmm
It's easy mmmkaaaay
[both finish at same time]
[laughing]
[Mr. Mackey:] Mmmkay
Mmmkay
Mmmkay

I am also a big fan of the Blues Stones. Would be nice if they would put out a pure blues record with own stuff and great covers, but as we all know that will never happen. So I'm planning to put together a CD of my own with pure Blues Songs
