roundnround
I interviewed Bernard Fowler for the film and asked him how the Stones sound has changed or evolved since Darryl has been in the band. He said this:
"It rolls a little more, there’s a little more groove factor with Darryl. It could be because of where he is from, Chicago….Those boys know how to play bass; that bass with no frills, no bullshit rock solid bass. They know how to hold it down and that’s what Darryl did, he holds it down and he is always there, always there, always there…
Like I said the groove is a little bit more….It rolls a little bit more and I’m sure that has something to do with Darryl’s background. He’s not Bill Wyman, he’s Darryl Jones and he is sensitive enough to fit in that place without overdoing it, you know, he knows how to hold it down."
It's hard to tell whether Bernard is doing Bill down here, did you get the sense he was roundnround?

Chicago-style? So, Darryl is basically a bluesman then? Well, that's a lie. He's a funk/soul/fusion/ R&B-bassist. Who's style, however brilliant, doesn't match with The Rolling Stones.
And I don't care what the band says. They are, since long, a bunch of has-beens stuck in the early seventies. Like an old hippie collective waking up in the mid 2010s.
