Instead of a camp "Love Train," I'd like to hear them do "who's that lady" by the isley bros. Nice R&B number, would sound great if the two guitar players show up.
Love to see & hear The Stones with especially Mick doing a down on his knees soulful cover of What Becomes Of tHe Broken Hearted.
Cafaro sorry to tell ya but The Isleys did record for Mowtown. Check out such stuff as This Old Heart Of Mine - Take Me In Your Arms - Tell Me It's Just A Rumour...which would all be great for the Stones to cover.
Rockman and Martingo: I stand corrected. Rockman is correct. The Isley's were with Motown in the 60's. I have 4 of their discs and I never knew that. Thanks!

EXACTLY! I listened a lot to the Out On Bail Version with Mac on keyboards and think it's great even without the sax, as in 81-82. So there's no need for a new cover, play this one!

sorry..no more motown, soul stuff...jagger's voice comes off too much like he is wining. the stones need to get back to their roots with more guitars...more rock and roll... its only rock and roll but i like it!
cafaro----right on! lets rock and have a great time... more jagger, richards, wood and less chuck, lisa and brenard... go back and do hard ass rock and roll.. let it rock!

No, I think it's great that The Stones tried to cover great soul compositions. And with nearly all of the soulcovers they did excellent.
Just My Imagination remains one of the their best covers ever.
There's nothing wrong trying to do something different. It shows respect too to other musicians. Every important band covered something written by Smokey Robinson. I'm glad he gets this much respect, because he's one of the greatest songwriters ever.

Kind of an ignorant remark. What does that even mean? The Stones are an R&B band by trade/definition. Motown is R&B. I see no difference.
yeah i like the soul/motown covers they did to, but they done this on the last tour! So why shouldn't they do a r'n'r or blues cover again for the next tour? At first the stones are a Rock'n'Roll Band aren't they???
