It doesn't have to be Vegas, doesn't have to be flashy guitar playing. Just rock'n'roll. This one proves it! Happy Xmas

You said it, brilliant. O for more of the same, like a whole tour's worth of it. What show was that footage from btw ?

nice.

but what about footage from their last tour? Think you'd struggle to find anything like this.

"What show was that footage from btw ?"

Amsterdam,Paradiso,May 26th 1995 I think...

Paradisio, Amsterdam, isn't it? Not sure.

That´s connecting Dandelion,same thought ,same minute...

Great video, but 14 years have passed.

I really appreciate the clip AND your message. Wouldn't it be more convincing though if
you would give evidence that is less than 14 years old?

Nice wife beater slash woman's running bra, Jagger!

well the video does say '95 at the top of the youtube title.

maybe the words of the thread should have read:
Just a reminder of what the Stones WERE capable of...

My point was if the Stones decide to make things more simple, they still can rock our socks off. Keith can still play open G rhtyhm guitar if he's focusing on that, imo.

I thought the press conference at Julliard showed our boys in an excellent form.
I can't find a clip of the complete songs they played that day, but indeed, they kept it
simple and it was brilliant. Really brilliant.

But that Press Conference is also more than 4 years ago. Four Years, that's about the
time that passed between Their Satanic Majesties Request and Sticky Fingers....

Really brilliant with perhaps the exception of that god awful rendition of that god awful song called Oh No Not You Again.

I like your optimism here marco, but the band aren't rising 25 year olds with potential anymore...

Not complete,but at least some impressions...
If I thinkk about it...without Chuck,Blondie,Bernard,Lisa,the horn section...
didn´t sound bad....worth a try again............but no,won´t happen.

this 1995 example is not simple or stripped down. the guitarist just play acoustics instead of electric guitars, that´s all that is different. not simpler in any way.

upon further review, this reminder has been rejected on account of lack of supporting evidence from the more recent past....

Where's the one of Keith just kind of wandering around? Was that the O2?

14 years and nearly 15. For us seasoned Stones fans the 90s still seems like yesterday. That's truly a long time in rock'n'roll, especially nowadays when a band making it past 5 years is longevity.

I like this video quite a bit but don't see that Ronnie Wood added much to the song . . just being honest. Bring back Mick Taylor NOW!!

It's fourteen year old footage. That alone says quite alot as to exactly what they are capable of now. Just take them off life support already & let them fade away.

dontcha think thats a bit rough man?

Yeah, why are you using footage from 14 years ago to show what they are capable of "now"? They are older and a lot has changed. I still love 'em to death, but the house is crumbling.

Newp. I saw the Stones in 1975 when they didn't need apologists.

14 years....that's like putting on Exile On Main Street when discussing Dirty Work in 1986

....anyway, it's a very good clip - those 4 European club shows of 1995 are among their very finest concerts after Bill Wyman left, IMO
