I vaguely remember seeing footage of the Stones working on what became Oh No Not You Again before the album came out. It's not on the DVD either. I think it showed Mick jumping up and down near Charlie at the end of the song, or stepping up to the drum riser for the end, which made me feel, at that time, that we were in for a treat of something along the line of When The Whip Comes Down.

Any ideas?

Well I don't remember seeing that but I did see video of a press conference and he played that song on a boom box or something and was dancing a little and saying "pretty good eh?

That was the press conference rehearsal, not the ABB recording session.

Are you talking about this one,skipstone ?







I am a Frenchie ,as Mick affectionately called them in the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1977 .

STILL a GREAT song!

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

Great. Good to watch it again.
Scary to realize it was five years ago. Five years! I mean, that is about the same time span
as between the release of Let it Bleed and It's only Rock 'n Roll.

good point never looked at it that way.

that is a long lapse

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

one of the few i can listen to on that album

Mick Jagger is just the best rock vocalist ever.

No, that video isn't it. I distinctly remember it being in Mick's house.

its a miracle, some positive reactions..

No, not the DVD that came with the special edition. That's just it - it was shown before the LP came out. When I saw the special edition DVD I thought, cool, they should have that footage in it. Nope.

maybe you're thinking of BEING MICK.....recording Goddess In the Doorway. ??


IORR............but I like it!

Did Mick record Oh No Not You Again with Charlie for Goddess?

Never heard of Charlie doing anything on any solo Mick stuff.
(that was a serious question, right?)

[thepowergoats.com]

No, that was partially a joke. It was clearly not in BEING MICK because it wasn't. It had strictly to do with A Bigger Bang and it's not what is on the DVDs. It was part of the big push of hype. The thing of it was is it was really good. It wasn't that fluffed up crap that's on the DVD.

hey...you said you VAGUELY remembered it..so gimme a break. Just trying to be helpful.

But that's such an obvious tongue in cheek gaffe...

Had never seen the rehearsal footage or studio footage before. Thank you for this. Thing of it is, I think the songs sound remarkably better than the pumped-up noise that my aging ears rejected five years ago. Just turning the stereo down doesn't help, it's the way the thing sounds at any volume, it's recorded louder than it should be (or maybe mastered louder is what I mean to say). That album and tour, to me, sound like they were going for a White Stripes sound. I'd prefer that not be the case. I'd love to have a version of the album that sounds more like the two links in this thread.

I remember vaguely that I saw something about ABB on youtube. It was part of a series that was shown on television, it was called something like "Great moments in Rock history". They showed how Mick recorded "Laugh, I nearly died" in France, and they talked about this album. Maybe it is that what you mean?

does anyone know how it works when the stones do the press confrence, like the one in 2005 at julliard .do you have to have a ticket or the more the merry .

I would imagine you need a press pass. Media only.
