That's OK I have skin like a Rhino! Actually more like that of Barney Fife! God have mercy on me!
Mick, Keith, (

Could be a delayed response, I will stay undercover for awhile longer just to make sure the coast is clear.

I dig Don's work too.
Just curious here. Can you explain, in your opinion, how Was fits the Stones?
And even Jimmy Miller was given room for about 2 and a half albums, by Exile he was a shadow.
This is absolutely true. Maybe a bad choice for the Stones, but he's not a bad producer.
...and what about 'Charmed life'?
Stones sounds imo shouldn't be warm and inviting
Well, I get that -- I don't know if I agree, but it's a fair point. Anyway, I was not saying I want him to produce future Stones albums, just that he does a good job of finding the right sound for some artists.
Yeah I understand but I think Sticky Fingers and Exile sound warm and inviting and I guess with Voodoo Lounge that was what he was trying to achieve.....and almost did except for the quality of the songs...

What and the Johnny Cash albums done with Rubin are crap because Rubin's in the chair? Cash couldn't have made those albums without Rick Rubin he certainly couldn't have made them with Don Was.

I love Don Was, not only as a producer but as a person, he is one cool dude, and in my opinion fits the Stones perfectly! Can't wait for the next DW/MJ/KR collaboration!

You dodged a big one. I thought you were going to get roasted. Was, along with Chuck Levell is one of the most vilified of the Stones' entourage.

Don Was is one of my favourite producers, too. But I would prefer a new Don Was / David Was / Sweet Pea Atkinson album over a new Don Was / Mick Jagger / Keith Richards album. David is a great lyricist and Sweet Pea is a great singer. And Mick is both.

How did the Glimmer Twins find acceptable to work with the man who gave birth to this atrocity is beyond me...
I mean, only Desmond Child could have been a more rotten choice...

His production on Lucinda Williams' album Blessed is fantastic. It sounds warm and inviting and the guitars are recorded and mixed wonderfully.

The Don Was detractors seem to believe that Rick Rubin or Jack White or Glyn Johns' kid could somehow convince Jagger and Richards to try harder and get better work out of them. I don't believe that is so. Any producer on a Stones session is just an employee for hire and can be told where to go. Mick put up with some crap from Rick Rubin during the WANDERING SPIRIT sessions but in the end reminded him who was in charge and overrode his authority. It doesn't really matter whether or not Rubin could have made Jagger do even better work had Jagger's ego allowed him to listen, the result is the same. The situation would be even worse on a Stones session where you have two egos who are even more volatile around one another than they are apart. The days when a Jimmy Miller was actually allowed to produce the band are long gone.

I never said Don was better than Rick.
Rick has done some great work, but he has also produced a number of crap too.
