You're being revisionist. What would Sasha even do if Lisa didn't provide the blueprint? She is integral to the modern version of the band. I'm sure there's many who like me were disappointed after she quit. I see a revisionist pattern here on the board where folks even act as if there was a possibility they could bring Wyman back in the fold and he would be able to actually play, pick up right where he left off or something.

Tunes like Tumbling Dice, Honky Tonk Women, et al. sound great with female backup singers as the studio versions attest to.
But when all these backup singers invade songs like JJF, Satisfaction, etc. live, that's when it can become a problem.
Listen to Satisfaction at MetLife Stadium '19 which is clearly not the best version (Keith is quite sloppy), but when the backup singers add their "magic" it really sounds horrible imo.
It starts to become noticeable around 4:30, but at the 5:00 it becomes almost laughable.

Actually I love Exile.And Shine a LightLet it Loose,Just Wanna See His Face and Tumbling Dice, are the only songs with backup non Stones singers.Of those, the backups are only essential on Let it Loose.They are such great songs inspite of them.I always disliked those gospel Tumbling Dice singers.They are great on Let it Loosethough.
