Someone posted a video of mid rambler live...with some caption this is why I still see the stones. Well I played the video and then 14 seconds in I heard Leavells toy piano and it ruins the song . He can stay with the stones as Jagger's water boy for all I care but keep him off stage send him back to the Allmans or maybe the Osmonds.

Bear in mind that Chuck would not have taken over Keith's role as band leader unless Keith allowed it to happen.

Or Mick demanded it or else he wouldn't tour. Keith may have had to swallow his pride to ensure the band's survival.

If you're musical director and you want inappropriate piano, you get inappropriate piano.

Yes, MR is a song of danger and fear. Compare the Chuck contaminated version to the Billy Preston versions from 73 or 75/76. Billy interpretes the atmosphere, the cruelty of the song in the right way, Chuck makes a nice honky tonk piano bar theme out of it. No wonder, Chuck Leavell is the Vegas chief of the band ...He should better go with the Bee Gees or the Beach Boys.

I am also among the camp that feels Chuck is not the right piano player for the Stones. Having said that, he's not as bad as his haters say, but he's not as good as Jagger must feel he is. I also find it ironic that Ian Stewart personally endorsed him should anything happen to Stu. Maybe Chuck was in earshot and Stu was just trying to be nice because Chuck sounds NOTHING like Ian Stewart. I have also long resented Chuck usurping Keith's role as band leader. I wish they had continued to use Mac from The Faces. His playing is much more Stonesy to my ears.

Stealing Chuck Leavell's piano could result in felony charges. I recommend refraining from such activities.
