Did anyone notice that in the recent interview that Mick Jagger gives on the DVD bonus part, that he tries to change the subject as soon as Mick Taylor is mentioned? Jagger can't dance away from Taylor fast enough, and suddenly changes the subject to what sort of shirt Taylor was wearing or other trivia. He doesn't want to talk about the Taylor resignation at all.

Jagger just wants to blot it out of his mind, or at least not put any fresh light on the matter.

He's still traumatized by Taylor's quit. Easy to understand. And yes, it has been mentioned before somewhere in this thread.

What a load of bollocks. Utter crap.

But what can we expect....

traumatized .....That's a joke right? You seriously can't believe Mick Taylor leaving the Rolling Stones had the least bit of affect on Jagger at all. He changes the subject because he doesn't give a crap. He's just trying to promote the latest thing he's selling.

What can we expect when it comes to Mick Taylor being a great gift to the Rolling Stones: Your words again.


Get over it Mathijs. With Taylor the Stones were the greatest R&R band in the world.

And I agree with that........that's make two

Here in Holland only the NTSC version is available. I think there's only a NTSC version of L&G anyway.

Jagger talks trivia all round in my opinion, and not just when the subject of Taylor crops up. Critical analysis, or perhaps patting himself on the back, for example, maybe isn't the most tasteful route to take, perhaps, yet one gets the impression that a sense of perspective or of an acknowledgement in terms of musical quality left Jagger years ago, and it's all about big business and vanity these days. Not that it's a bad interview necessarily, but something's lacking on the part of Jagger in my opinion.

He seemed pretty out of it in that interview as well. Like he was struggling to compose his thoughts. Not a good interview.

He did an interview with Absolute Radio earlier this year (video podcast available on iTunes) where he was a lot more together.

This is nonsense. I just watched the bonus materials last night. Mick was very complimentary of Mick T - when you need a dazzling solo, you just look over and he's there; nice playing on Dead Flowers, very lyrically played, overall a very good performance from him. That's right on the money; what exactly did you want him to say?

Overall, I thought that it was a very good interview by Mick standards, fairly interesting, Mick's never as good as Keith or Charlie.

I prefer Perks. His comments are as dry as a clerk....which he was.

After seeing it at the Theater last week, just bought it and watched it. The Best Movie on The Stones : Yes. Impressive. This is the Album ( 72 / 73) that is missing to the Stones catalog. Everyone is performing at the best they can do. The duo between Keith and Taylor is rock at the peak. Dead Flowers and Love In Vain forever. Which Band can align such a pair like Charlie and Bill !!!. This being said, Twickenham on Four Flicks and Rio on BB are magnificent too.

I suppose Mick Jagger looks pretty good for his age, but I would love to see Mick set an example and let his hair go gray . . His hair is too dark for all the wrinkles. I guess he would have to wear his hair short though . . long gray hair is not good.

anyone complaining about compressed sound on the dvd shouldve bought the blu-ray instead, the lossless dts-hd ma is sweeeeeeeeeeet!

But I wonder if what you're hearing is basically a higher resolution transfer of the same overly-compressed tracks as in the stereo mix? I think you'd have to do an A/B comparison between the stereo mix and 5.1 mix in order to figure out how different they are. (Since I don't have a 5.1 setup, I'm unable to compare them.)

I have the blu-ray with a 7.1 system and I agree with most of the sound critiques already posted. The sound is very ok but not much separation or depth.

Mick never talks about anything directly if it relates to a personal relationship. He's a private guy, I don't think it has any bearing on his true feelings about one thing or another. He might be more generous and forthcoming than at other times, but he keeps himself guarded. You don't honestly believe he doesn't remember anything therefore hasn't written a book, do you? Of course he remembers. He just doesn't reveal things. Maybe its his way of keeping some things private because everyone else in his life lays it all out there.
He a little like Aretha. Om her "autobiography", she writes more about how to cook chitlins than about her sessions in Muscle Shoals. They just keep their true selves to themselves and that's admirable in a way in this culture of tell-alls.

I'm starting to get the impression that the DVD is out. Had no idea.

i finally got to watch ladies and gentelman ,and let me tell you i was so impressed by the stones in all there glory at there peak on top of the summitt.what a powerful performance .from the opening chord of brown sugar to the closing number street fighting man.for me this is the best stones movie ever, period.highlights for me were bitch(with taylor's les paul and the horns bobby keys on sax and jim price on trumpet)DEAD FLOWERS just rocked so good i still cant stop singing it in my head (powerfull)love in vain , with the mega wonderfull solo of mick taylor's wow oh my god this is what a solo is supposed to sound like,sweet virginia with mick singing those awesome lyrics and once again bobby keys blows the most awesome sax solo ever,midnight rambler with mick's great vocal work and using his belt as a whip on the stage floor and mick taylor's sweet les paul .i could go on and on but i am totally blown away and in sheer AWE at the stones finest moment in my book.i loved the sound quality ,whatever they did(the producers)i tip my hat to them . i liked the old grey whistle interview and i liked the new interview that mick did where he talks about mick taylor's guitar solo (pretty cool)i liked the rehersal footage , to bad there wasnt more of this ,but overall i can not complain .i also understand why this was never released in the first place (damn shame if you ask me )the stones were so stoned out and it was really visible to the naked eye ,but they made such great music. to anyone that has not got this yet ,you are doing a diservice to yourself as a stones fan .

Cool report Greek. Thanks

Keep On Rolling

I liked the bonus material as well

MT's great rhythm playing on Hip Shake is enormous fingers the way he can play the A chord and riff of the chord as keith played in open g capoe at 2nd fret key of A

On TD - you can see MT working out his live solo and not to piss off keith . Jaggers face expression on MT solo he was really grooving on it.

I wish they included loving cup on the bonus material

play that guitar boy

agree about loving cup.

Well, here's an interview with Taylor about (his time in) The Rolling Stones. It's from 2001, done by a Duch radio reporter without any interview experience. But it's interesting though. I stumbled across it a couple of days ago.




And after all the talking we'd like to hear some Stones music, don't we?

I can not believe MT would say that his best time musically was with his work with Dylan

It's indeed the Stones, 1972 NYC MSG, July 26, from one of those partly soundboard boots with that show.

Cool, thanks. I don´t doubt that this was posted here in this great forum. Can you give me a link or the name of that boot (perhaps "Welcome to NEw York"?).

can someone who has the DVD release please tell me if there's been any editing of the original movie, any overdubs, any new mixing of the audio ??

The snippet of Sweet Virginia taken from the recent Exile doco (taken from the L&G movie) sounds like Keith is alot louder in the mix...?

thanks
