Taylor's an enormous part of the effectiveness of Plundered My Soul. The Stones need Taylor desperately, i just wish they could all bury their egos and work together, if only in the studio on unfinished archive tracks. Those A Bigger Bang tracks would have sounded significantly better also with Taylor's contribution.
Just as the Stones, Taylor has seen better days. His playing nowadays can not be compared with his playing 35 years ago.

Are you basing this on that rather lame performance of CYHMK that someone posted a few days back? That was jut a bad night, other recent clips were posted showing MT in much better form.

I am basing this on his rather lame performance for the last 10 years.

As opposed to The Stones' current lead guitarist's blazing performances over the past 20 years?

As I said in my previous post: just as the Stones, Taylor has seen better days. The Stones include Ron Wood.

Well, I was being a little snarky, sorry about that!
The current issue isn't so much Wood vs. Taylor (as I teeeeediously drug it down to), but more along the lines of the possibility of MT re-joining in a larger capacity now that he has apparently done some recent work on the Exile project. Is that door open now? Especially since the alternative doesn't appear to be in any condition to tour. I think they would be touring now if he were. Of course, MT isn't exactly the picture of health these days either.
Sure it's a longshot, but it seems more likely now in light of recent events. It might be a creative shot in the arm to prevent the next tour from becoming "Bigger Licks 3".

W-wh-what....It's not that big a deal.That's why this thread is 8 pages long and their is a new thread about it every hour.That kind of no big deal? Somebody forgot to tell the rest of the Rolling stones fans.Quote

don't analyse it too much, just enjoy it for what it is. It really is not that big a deal

But I am not so sure about the other alternative either. Is Taylor really in condition - physically, mentally - taking the spotlight and perform some two hours to huge audiences? Can he really handle the gig? I mean, he's been in a rather small club circuit for so long now that he should adapt altogether a different attitude and approach to step to Rolling Stone shoes. Ronnie is an awful player these days but but he is a show man, looks good and thereby justifies his presence. I just can't really imagine Taylor fitting to the Stones concept anymore. He is no showman, not particularly Rolling Stone looka-like - all he can do is to play brilliantly (as he once did). He surely would not to be allowed to have any "off nights" (which he seem to have quite often these days) because all he has is the guitar skills. Otherwise he is totally useless. Can the Stones really rely on him?

Today, during "off-nights" he [Taylor] is still better than Keiff'n'Ron during "on-nights".

You are aware of what year it is right? That you're basing your statement on something that was done in 1971? Why does this kind of thing continue? Mick Taylor, in no way, would or could benefit the Stones right now. He's not what he was, just like how they are now. I don't get what difference it would make. Not even one percent.

I'm a big blues fan and would hear Keith and Ronnie at any old time instead of Taylor.
I'd be amazed to hear 'em play "Satisfaction" one more time. but when I hear "Secret Affair" & "Twisted Sister" I'm bored to death. sorry.

Taylor has to have a bandleader, not be one. he should hook up with Mayall... or somebody.

By the way, anyone for some anorak remarks? ON Plunder my sould the drums, bass and Taylor's guitar sound like the Jamaica sessions that yielded Fast Talking, Save Me and You Should Have Seen Her Ass. So GHS outtake, not Exile.
I'll continue with my stamp collection now.
