The funniest remark of the day, at least. Congrats!
You forgot to mention the Sax!
But bass is Bill Plummer for sure.

I agree. I love Keith's backing vocals. They do make Exile great. But a lot of the backing vocals are Mick Jagger. Many of those songs have at least three harmony vocals. Mick on the low and high and Keith in the middle. I can't decide if that's the case with 'Wild Horses' or not. 'Can't You Hear Me Knocking' is very clearly Keith dominating the backing vocals. Exile has so many vocals it's really hard to be sure. I really hope 'Casino Boogie' is Keith on the high vocal.
I think Mick Taylor plays saxophone on PMS.

Thats actually Mick Taylor singing on PMS. He also wrote the lyrics, if you ask me,
I find it very sad.
I adore Keith's voice. The thought of Jagger imitating Keith just makes me cringe.
It sure as heck sounds like Keith to me ('70s-era Keith), and nothing like Mick!
You can be assured it's Keith on "Casino Boogie", as well as "T&F", "Sweet Black Angel", "Rip This Joint", etc. Wish they still sang together like that, but I wish for a lot of things...
You're really on a roll, aren't you?
Damn! You're as disgusted as me aren't you? I hate reading all the Jagger is the Stones posts on here. I didn't mean that. I just meant exactly what I said. I actually still believe that Keith made and makes most of the songs and that Mick just polishes them to radio-friendly (even though they don't get played).
Sweet Black Angel is for sure Keith on the high part. A lot of them are, but Mick does the backing vocals on "Brown Sugar" and it has the same vibe as the Keith backing vocals. 'Sweethearts Together' was a prime example that Keith can still do the harmonies he used to do I think.
Mick Taylor wrote most of the songs on Exile, including PMS.

Keith sings the whole last verse of "Brown Sugar" with Mick on the record.
I've always thought that was Mick, mainly 'cause of the credits, and also 'cause Keith never sang on "Brown Sugar" live.
Elvis and Michael Jackson, on the other hand, are very much alive.
What is a roll? Like in rock n roll? Hell yeah, thats what I am talking about!!!!
Kaiser roll
Dinner roll
Roll Over Beethoven
Talk about your favorite band.

The quintessential background vocals are Keith and Ron on Jumping Jack Flash 1981. One of the peaks in western civilization.

I don't hear Keith on PMS, but I don't think it's cause he can't sing like that anymore. I don't know that he ever could. Y'all know that Mick did a lot of those backing vocals that people think is Keith don't you? He always did a great Keith impersonation. Keith's voice seems to have come back pretty strong in recent years in my opinion. Listen to 'Faraway Eyes' on Shine a Light compared to anything from Hampton, VA 81. No contest. That's all Keith on This Place Is Empty.

You don't know that he ever could? Put on Exile right now and play "Casino Boogie" and "Torn & Frayed". Keith's singing on that album is one of the things that make it great.

Wild Horses I'm pretty sure it's Keith, I hear just two voices on the chorus, although it's true that on many tracks Mick sings backing vocals as well.

Now we know that Mick is a brilliant imitator of Keith's voice, we have not any certainty at all anymore what is really original Keith singing and what isn't.
It begun with the guitar: "Hey, that's not Keith but Jagger on guitar in ADTL" (if I remember well) and now it's the singing: "Hey that's not Keith but Jagger doing a Keith vocal imitation". Boy, where will this end? The question is: What did Keith actually do? Did he really co-write the songs or did Jagger Keith's part in songwriting as well, just by imitating him? It wouldn't surprise me.

I agree that Mick often does a Keith sound-alike harmony part (probably even on the original "Exile"...I used to think the harmony on "Casino Boogie" was a chick, then I thought it was Keith, but I've finally decided it's Mick).
However, could someone please answer for me this question: who is singing the vintage-Keith like lead vocal toward the end of "Plundered My Soul"?...the part where, on the official video, they show the shot of Keith with the baseball cap & shades...credits aside, I could swear that was '70s-very early '80s era Keith. Not as high-pitched as "Happy" or "Before They Make Me Run", but more like "Coming Down Again", Surely THAT can't be Jagger! Any thoughts?
Come on, that singing at the end doesn't even sound like Keith...There's no Keith at all on this track, except for the guitars.
It sure as heck sounds like Keith to me ('70s-era Keith), and nothing like Mick!

It's quite simple, actually. Keith has been dead for years, just like Paul McCartney.Quote

Keith sings on Brown Sugar...he just doesn't sing on PMS...
Now he doesn't sing on anything?
A good example of Mick doing a high pitch singing it's on the verses of "It's Only Rock'n Roll"...it's pretty obvious when it's Keith or Mick
