That’s a nice expose, I enjoyed reading it.
I have to say, if you give songs like Alabama, Leather Jacket, and Broken Hands in to the 1973 Rolling Stones, I think they become great songs. If you put songs like Casino Boogie, If You Can’t Rock Me, and I Got The Blues in the hands of lesser bands, those songs become pedestrian. Much credit of the prolific Jagger/Richards songwriting is supported by the performance of the group, and during that great run of albums, the production of Jimmy Miller.

Seriously I can't imagine how Black and Blue marked a decline, even in the Stones scale of greatness. It really is a great album.

They played Leather Jacket in 1969/70 already, though

And a lovely version indeed. Just missing Jagger on lead vocal w/ Richards and Taylor on backup. Probably would have gone a long way for lil’ Mick.

I know it's a wrong thing to think, but if Ronnie is not well enough to play with the Stones this year or next, could there be a God and please let Taylor have a chance to play rather than another studio type musician, it looses all credibility with people like Bill replaced with season musicians.

Is Taylor on it at all? Would have loved to hear the story behind Leather Jacket, its creation, why they didn't finish it and how it wound up as a Taylor-penned solo tune. Lovely track indeed.

That IS wrong to think, Riffie
Not at any cost! We are not talking about a band in its infancy, but a band that if it plays again it will only be a miracle!Quote
