It's Taylor. No doubt. Very impro, and not really suitable here, imo.

He does some cool things on BL and Imagination, though.

They all play pretty great on this, it all just works. The music seems at odds with the gossip and memories about the concert.

I take it this wasn't also recorded on multitrack? This would have made for a top bootleg series release, stereo mix and with lowered sax of course. grinning smiley

BOB is not "great". But it's a good show indeed.

Heavens, we do agree again. That mustn't become a habit.

According to set list sources, MT comes in at song 10 (Let me Go) and remains for the rest of the set (total of 16 songs).

Hear Jagger say: thank you, Mick Taylor (or: Mick Taylor, thank you) after Black Limousine. Forget about the setlist sources.

Let Me Go is wrong.

We got it confirmed in this thread that he joined in on Whip. Sounds likely to me, and I have listened a lot to this show smiling smiley

Keith is particularly ace on guitar during this time, he has definitely continued to develop as a player way past the "golden era", not a fan of some of the tones though. grinning smiley

It's nice to hear you saying that - finally smiling smiley

Huh, i've said similar many times. smiling smiley

Keith advanced technically right up to and including the 90's.

Yes he did, but that doesn't mean that the band did also progress along the process...

Sure. But after 10 or more listens to other 81 shows it won't be that musically interesting anymore - as there are way better shows out there.

The "gathering" is interesting, of course.

He missed the slow days with RTJ, JJF, ADTL, BS and MR?

Those songs weren't played "fast and furious" during Taylor's days at all the way they were in 81/82: ragged and rushed. Besides they played all songs that way, so that it seemed as if it was all one and the same 'song'. I heard it myself. Very boring.

Yes, they were, and it's easy to prove as well grinning smiley

They were played fast - except ADTL, BS, and MR - but tasty. Not furious, let alone ragged and rushed.

Except MR? Fastest ever in 73...

And the slowest as well... you have very selected ears...

The leading anti-Taylorite here, no Taylor-related thread without a nasty remark... But the most happiest Rolling Stones fan since 1974 since no need to suffer of that guitar pullotion... unless that is given in a nice Vegas offering a'la external guitar solos, without anything to disturbing with the 'real thing'...

I heard stuff in BOB that made it sound it belonged on Sticky Fingers... Taylor is a blues/pop guitar wizard.... Take for example the hooks he added to SFM, his irreverence for The Glimmers makes him a full fledged creative force. Ronnie acting as Keith's caddy shows the pro that he is but Taylor bows to no one and dares to lead and explore... After all he's a "lead guitarist."

I guess Taylor is the only guitarist in the history of the Rolling Stones that you can actually throw on the stage without any rehearsal, without actually knowing the songs in particular, and do the thing... Does he 'fit' there with every note or not is not the thing - he will manage it anyhow, and they know it...

At his best Taylor reacts to the moment in a manner that we no longer see in rock. The question, can he still do it? was answered for me when I saw him with Ronnie at The Cutting Room. He is always searching for the sweet spot, rather than simply compliment, he strives to elevate... While he may no longer be over aggressive fact is his spontaneity must be respected.

I finally found the interview footage where MT talks about his appearance in KC and describes the music as "fast and furious" and that the show felt strange for him because the music seemed so different--it's from that unauthorized DVD series Just For The Record (the 80s). Starts at about 14:38 in the following link: [www.snagfilms.com]

Frankenstein goes for the odd ball studio creations featuring ye olde tracks with modern editing and overdubs. Like a 50 year old woman with sprayed on tan, face lift and fake tits.

I wonder what you would say if the initial tracks turned out to be only 5 years old.
No, actually I don't.. Jagger's and Taylor's overdubs are face lift and fake tits to you.grinning smiley

1) Just so you know, I feel the same way about the other overdubbed tracks which had no Taylor involvement.

2) Why not just get together to work on the incomplete songs and record them new with as much of the exile era band as possible? That would require too much effort of course, maybe show them up as not being fit for duty.

3) Cheaper and lazier to go the overdub route.

1) I don't know why you feel like that? Overdubs and edits are as old as the first
multitrack recorders. In the case of PMS there's a timespan of 4 decades between it, odd, but so what? It's the result that counts. I think Jagger did a good 'Frankenstein job'.

2) Right, I think they are too old to deliver the energy and quality that they had during exile era. I would require a lot of edits and overdubs to get a decent result. grinning smiley Even a guitar maniac like John McLaughlin is not the creative and fast player he used to be. I think you get my point.

3) Time is money indeed. Besides, they have nothing to prove anymore.

It's obviously not overdubs and edits in themselves, it's overdubs and edits to tracks done 40 years ago to help shift a re re re re re re release of an album. They have changed greatly since then, especially their singing/playing.

The weirdness of it all comes through in the sound and music.

Some fake tits looks great, but I assume feel weird. grinning smiley

Oops, you "forgot" the rest of my post, where I complimented Taylor.

Childish.

I'm not that interested in the commercial ideas behind it.

We are repeating ourselves, HM. It's the fact that there's a timespan of 40 years between it that is bothering you, gives it a creepy feeling. They changed greatly like you say it, Taylor would have played different in the early 7-tees, and that goes for Jagger as well. Still the recent overdubs are no fake tits to me. Those tits are Mick Taylor and Jagger AD 2009 finishing a 40 years old track.. I like that experiment and I respect it.

Think different, or just ignore. I know it's not always easy.smiling smiley

Ultimately, it's just weird listening. smiling smiley
