Mick Taylor You should ask them. I don't have the answer to that question.
"More creative" - priceless.
That's not Taylor, unless he's being brainwashed.
It's very witty and it does resound Taylor's dry sense of humour to me. But none of us knows.
That same MT FB fan page is quoting Taylor: "I don't have an answer to that question", referring to not being re-invited. After playing together for 2 years(?) not knowing why bla bla? Come on Kleer, get realistic.

I was of course referring to 'his' answer: "I was told they wanted to do something 'more creative'."
As for the rest we both don't know anything.

it's a cheap shot. no way Taylor would have said it, as he is not doing much either.

Well if anyone is justified in giving the Stones a cheap shot it's Taylor. I still think it's an attempt at humor whether from MT or someone else. When you consider it was Jagger's lawyer who delivered the news to Taylor it becomes even more funny.
And since none of us know what Taylor is up to, saying he isn't doing much (creatively) is pretty meaningless. For all we know he could be writing new songs every day, collaborating with some other rock gods and writing poetry and painting.

Horribly sad what they have done to abuse Mick and Bill...Bill at least made some big $$$ with the band and has a decent solo career. MT was brought back on reluctantly to promote the 50th and counting and shoved out like a circus clown for mostly one (1) song. Then the have the gall to claim their touring and going to cover Sticky Fingers and unload him on an album he clearly had a significant impact on. I love the Stones, but they are ruthless ...and Charlie , who said he wanted him on board, should have taken a stand and demanded it...

Therein lies the rub: perhaps it is one Stone who is ruthless.

I suggest you guys who are truly interested take your questions over to Facebook. Perhaps if you ask nice enough and are persistent you will get some clarity. We sure aren't going to get any answers here on iorr.

With all respect Naturalist, there's no life on Pluto. Some very interesting science fiction available though. I read quite a lot, so well written that I almost believed it. Just like you, probably.

How do you know that Turner? Inside info? Maybe he is writing a book, who knows. Or making long walks somewhere. Again: we just don't know. But that remark was funny!

Always made me wonder what Taylor could have done on some of the other Little Feat tunes! I'm still saddened and hurt by Richie Hayward's passing, he was a friend and my all time favorite drummer, "in the pocket" doesn't begin to describe his awesome playing.
I still believe that a Taylor collaboration with the remaining members of Little Feat could yield some great musical fruit!

In 1979 Lowell George wanted to reunite LF but with a different line up: a different second guitarist and a different piano player. I think that Mick Taylor could play very well with them. Lowell George also performed in MT first album.
From the other hand MT played two songs during their first show at Rainbow in 1977: A Apolitical Blues e Teenage Nervous Breadown

Thanks for that pepganzo. Can't get me enough Little Feat, never get tired of them. Wasn't even aware of this other tune with Taylor!
Yeah it's strange to me that Lowell was ready to make a break with Billy Payne and Paul Barrere. I've heard the stories that he was pissed at Billy playing with some jazz cats.
