If theres a Stones point of view we need, good god its him no?

That is curious. Even when he really needed the money he didn't write any kind of expose. I doubt he signed a NDA.

Probably couldn't be bothered.

Not the most motivated individual on the planet is he.

[ and I mean no malice by that... It's fault I've always exhibited myself]


Puzzling in a way though ...he could have made a bob or two .

Perhaps I'm being unfair.

Maybe he was just afraid to be honest... and didn't want produce a load of drivel instead .

There are a few interesting chapters in Rosie's book...

It would be a good read , and he could dish dirt on the Twins , but I don't think he has any motivation and who knows maybe he is on some type of salary/pension ?

Which book is that?

Actually there are many people who have been in the Stones orbit who haven't written a book, these include:

- Anita Pallenberg
- Bianca Jagger
- Alan Dunn
- Don Was
- Michael Cohl
- Astrid Lundstrom
- Shirley Arnold

Plus others no longer with us: Alan Klein, Ian Stewart, Eric Easton.
Not forgetting Mick and Charlie of course.
They will all have different reasons for not putting pen to paper. Am sure all have been offered deals...with the help of a ghost writer, of course.

Mick's feelings about writing his memoirs [or not] are well documented.

As for Charlie ...he probably couldn't see much of a book about 55 years of "hanging around and getting bored."

She didn't write a book. Some stuff about Taylor's relationship with her in the early 7-tees are online. Nothing exceptional. I got a brief but to the point answer from her after inquiring. I think she's an intelligent woman. Let it be.

If I recall right, Astrid contributed to Stone Alone. That's probably as much as she has to say about her life with the Stones.

Always get a kick watching this Arlen Roth and Mick Taylor - Arlene does his best to get MT to open up about his playing.

What about Jimmy Miller - the most important one - did he write / contribute to a book? (his influence from BB to GHS tells it all - without him - how would Stones have progressed from TSMR - a long thread / discussion in itself - more relevant than asking about George Martin and Stones!!)

On the Dead Flowers outtake,from Sticky Fingers Deluxe,you can hear Taylor playing single note runs which sound like the guitar runs on Waiting on a Friend

I close my eyes and those single guitar runs without the bends sounds like mimicking the sax solo more on WOAF. LOL.

Which guitar runs on WOAF?

Throughout the song you can here little scale runs

Those runs / chord arpeggios are also very much audible from Keith on the 1981 live versions.

What did Taylor play on Waiting on a Friend in KC in 1981?

I made a compilation of Taylor’s playing a few years ago. Don't remember anything specific of WOAF, though, but check it out.

I think I just heard a bluesy lick by him. I’ll have to revisit that performance and listen to the song. He problem just turned his volume down and played rhythm cuz the saxman was all over the place.

He turned it up during BOB, so anything is possible

That’s where he plays a riff throughout right?

Kind of a single string motif, yes.

I listened to the live Waiting on a Friend and I don’t really hear Taylor. Maybe a few runs here and there. Wood plays some stuff at some point too.

Thanks great listen, on the boot I always had to advance the boot until I got Taylor.LOL

What's the deal with Micks solo albums not being on Spotify with the exception of the first one? Would love to have Stranger in this town and a Stones Throw there as well...

There were a couple of other live albums there earlier, but they just vanished.

I don't know about the others. Different and minor labels.

Yeah, too bad. Saw him in concert in both Bergen and Notodden, and I made a tape recording of his Bergen performance wich was very good. Used to listen to it a lot, but it vanished after I moved. I know the Norwegian broadcast also made a soundboard recording of that show. Would have been awesome to get to hear it once again.
