Initially two tracks. The best on that record indeed, imo.

MT is unbelievable here.

Pete Townshend volume stutters and all.

Jeeze... firey.

Keith is a rock as he always was back then.

Maybe the Stones never really appreciated what they had.

I really can't see the beauty in this version - it's rather disturbing to my ears confused smiley

This however:

? Make up your mind..first you say he uses a killswitch, then when I point out it's not a killswitch you respond with 'it's not a killswitch'.

Funny thing though is that I bet you don't know how he did it!

Just kidding. I know Taylor used his toggle switch in the 7-tees. Lots of players do this joke.
I just think these killswitches are a bit fake. Listen to Buckethead.

In no order, these are my picks, off the top of my head and ones I always go back to and have loved so much I just had to learn them and listen to them over and over again!

Sympathy For The Devil - Get Yer Ya Yas Out (I also love Keith's solo)
Midnight Rambler - Get Yer Ya Yas Out
I Could Have Stood You Up - Keith Richards' 1st solo album Talk Is Cheap
[www.youtube.com]
Dead Flowers - live version from Ladies And Gentlemen The Rolling Stones
Love In Vain - Hyde Park 1969
No Expectations - Hyde Park 1969

Special thanks to all the Mick Taylor appreciators who understand!

What solo on Ya Ya's' "Rambler?" There is no solo on that live version of the song. 1972 and 1973? Sure. The Ya Ya's version? Just a bunch of riffs and rhythm guitars, but no solo to speak of.

Are you serious? Are you actually deaf? From 7:47 (7 minutes and 47 seconds) into Midnight Rambler on Get Yer Ya Yas Out until 8:17 (8 minutes and 17 seconds) for a total of about 30 seconds, Mick Taylor plays one of the greatest, most tasteful solos EVER that climaxes in pure guitar bliss, nirvana, heaven, whatever you want to call it! It's an absolute genius solo that starts off a bit repetitive and ends in perfection! Pal, don't tell me it don't exist because I have listened to this song thousands of times! lol

I guess I just wouldn't call that a solo. Compared to what's done in the rest of the live, later (early 70s) Ramblers with Taylor, that's just a couple of guitar fills. Not really a solo. I'm a musician, btw, if you're gonna use some ridiculous "must not be a musician like *I* am" argument, the kind that goes on here year after year . . .

So what if you are. I didn't bring that up. But if we have to, I would gladly challenge you to a duel.

If you think these are the best Taylor solo's than you haven't heard Taylor solo's.

Mathijs

These are just the ones that I know of that I like, once again like I said, off the top of my head. You certainly know your Mick Taylor, no doubt and the point of this thread was to have more people contribute their favorites. I am here to discover more great solos that I have missed. I have most of this stuff, I just haven't heard it all yet.
I don't know all the Mick Taylor solos in existence. But the Stones are not the only artist that I study.

Seems like you'll get some new favourites if you download/listen to the STP 72 bootleg from Rattlesnake, SanQ.

It is really difficult to identify a best of, since MT is a genius on guitar, and therefore almost all his efforts are sparkling and shining. Let the guitar play ...

Beautiful guitar tone and playing. Makes you wonder what the Stones could have sounded like it Taylor toured with them in the 1990s.

His playing changed from 1969 to 1972..and then even more in 1973.
I also like his work on the 1969 tour...his sound and his vibrato (eg satisfaction) were amazing...they were also so unique.
By 1972 his playing was great but familiar..

There is an alternate version of Shine a light on you tube! Taylor's wizardy is amazing, that version was never released though. Gombe it a listen and you will be amazed as well.

Quite a difference between his playing in 1972 and 1973. Each tour another approach. Never a dull moment.
