I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Taylor to come back to the states. I'd be very surprised if he ever toured the US again. Or if their was much interest in him touring.Quote

Hi Ablett and MLC - yes I am going with wife if it plays here in DC. Hope you guys are well and enjoying the exile release. PMS and the end of the summer.
play that guitar boy.
Oh ok. So that makes what 3-4 different threads mixed into this one? Hell maybe we should just make this the only thread on IORR.......I mean Mick Taylor is the only thing that matters right?Quote
Lightnin'
SCL-
OpenG mentioned that he would attend if it plays in DC.
"IT" is referring to the film L & G, not to "the deity".
As it happens, the film illustrates very well why the two get mixed up quite often.

As far as I've understood the explanation of Lightnin' it was the Pier organisation ignoring the message that was given by Taylor's manager.
Quote Lightnin': <When he heard (from friends) he was on the bill for a festival in Santa Monica, he gave his UK manager instructions to rectify this mistake. That is almost 2 months ago now - nothing was done.
If you want to know more, the promoters of the Pier festival are aware by who they were misled, so you can talk/write to them.>
But there are always people here who like to put the blame on Taylor if they see even a tiny chance to do so.

MT-related topics get one of the most hits when it comes to Stones on IORR.
How come?

The fact that he chose to try to play MT's solos means those parts were so strong that they became identified with the songs, i.e., you can't think of "Sway", for example, without thinking of Taylor's part.
I would have a listen to this one if I were you, even if it's Taylor solo. As an exception.
The difference between Taylor and Wood on improvising melodies-both not playing slide- is the fact that
Taylor is a more advanced player when it comes to phrasing, timing, and timbre.
Some people appreciate that, conscious or unconsciously, others don't.
The Kleermaker clip above is a perfect example.
It's only a part of the Stones game though.
That's true, but even Taylor is very limited in phrasing, whether he is playing with Mayall, the Stones, Dylan or as a solo act. The variety of phrasing is not his main strength, his tone and sense of timing is.
Agreed, he's no jazz, jazzrock or fusion player.

Your musical logic is unclear to me.

Great interview on Gibson.com:
"And you’re back on the road now, right?
Well, not entirely. A couple of weeks ago, we did a show in Poland and we did three shows in Italy and we came home. And then a week later, we did a show in France and then a show in Suffolk, which is in England. And then we did a show two days later in France. So I’m keeping busy, but I’m not doing any major tours, yet. No, not ready to do that yet."

Great to hear he feels better

If he were (a jazz, jazzrock or fusion player) he never would have been a member of the Rolling Stones!

kleer, listened to PMS again on Sunday (after putting it aside for a while) and could not help thinking/daydreaming about what might have been had Mick J. had ten tunes ready for MT to add his magic to, rather than just one. Do you suppose he thought during the session "this is pretty good, maybe we could do more of it", or if it was just a one-off, get it in the can and go. Oh, to be a fly on the wall of that studio...

Tele, I think the latter: "get it in the can and go". MT's thing on PMS wasn't only important for the song, but also created a welcome rumour amongst the fans and provoked questions in interviews.
I can't look into the bosom of the band but if they are going to tour I won't put any money on a guest apperance of Taylor.

You got it, kleermaker. Quite logic, actually
Apparently they couldn't get Jeff Beck aboard...

some of the finest playing in the world by mr. 335 himself LARRY CARLTON and ROBBEN FORD.wow larry's solo made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.i first had the luxury of hearing MR.335 back in 1977 when a coworker of mine turned me on to the crusaders and i was blown away as this was my first introduction to jazz (fusion) .very good taste sir for this great video !!!!!!Quote

In memory of the Pier gig that was to take place this Thursday, SCL and I are going to the pier this Thursday. If anyone wants to come down, we will most likely meet at the Britannia Pub in Santa Monica around 5:30 to 6 before heading down to the pier.
Yeah Beely,but I'd bet if you did have a screenplay it would be a lot more interesting then most. Come on down man. We'll trade warhorse stories.Quote

Hi MLC - do you by any chance have "Mick Taylor - Lone Star Cafe 1986" with Keith Richards on Key to the Highway and Can't You Hear Me Knocking? Do you know where it can be downloaded? Is it good?Quote

I wouldn't either. Reading between the lines I don't think Keith would be open to it.
Tele - Keith said in the latest interview: If I had mt way, Mick Taylor would still be in the band!!! That doesn't sound like he would object to a sit-in.
