I always thought this "For someone who professes to despise nostalgia," was more to do with journalists constantly asking about things like TVs going out of hotel windows, naked girls on planes and you know what I mean all that Nellcote stuff rather than his taste in music etc or even the warhorse setlists which if you check the polls on Reno's Stones site the 'public' do seem to demand.........I've noticed a couple of times journalists posing questions about the past which to my perception (and Mick Jagger's I sense from the irritated look on his face) seem to be loaded with an implication that he should be yearning for those 'halcyon' days of the late 60's & early 70's. It seems pretty clear to me that from his answers and often body language that from his own point of view if it wasn't for the demands of the public & probaly the record company (although the cash is obviously not to be sniffed at) those tapes & films would have stayed in the cupboard. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong but I do sense and understand how someone could get really pi$$ed off with being told how great they were when they were 25/35,( and another implication there being of course how $hit they are now)......... essentially being made a slave by public opinion of their own ghostlike younger self...must be quite a thing to deal with. Not a criticism of your observations btw stupidguy2, it's just I've always interpreted that statement of Mick Jagger's to be Stones history specific rather than general...(so as this is a Stones chat forum I thought I'd say).........Cheers, EddieBywordQuote

Jagger's was nice, a great collection of early 70s stuff. For someone who professes to despise nostalgia, Jagger seemed to really enjoy looking back during the Exile re-release. It was actually his choice to focus on songs he was listening to in 1971, tieing into the re-release.
