Wow, that rehearsal clip is amazing.
That's the blues. That's Keith today. If someone thinks this shows Keith's degradation or inability to still play or something like that, they don't get it. I'm not saying he is the same guitarist he was thirty, or even twenty years ago. I'm saying that you can't draw that conclusion from this clip. What he played was perfectly calibrated to the music he was playing, which is the ultimate sign of a true musician.
that is tasteful blues playing. That's the essence of the blues, right there, and Keith has it nailed.
He sure looks aged though...
Fantastic clip.
One Love. Go Keef Go!!!

These guys started out emulating the old black bluesman of Chicago, and the way I see it, that's how they are ending.

Yep - I'd kind of be surprised to see a major high octane tour at this point, even though the Stones have been know to surprise us before. They may do something but there's no denying the effects of age, especially on Keith. If they do tour, I don't think we can expect Keith to do the heavy lifting even though I'd love to see him perform in the basic blues style shown in the rehearsal clip. Time will tell.

Wow, that´s a great clip and a great performance.
One of the very few clips where you can see him
play slide so intensely.
First time ever I saw him play slide was on You Got The Silver
in Stuttgart in 1999. Tears in my eyes...
