Mpj200, I said I appreciate your insights and I didn't want to offend or anything. I hope I wasn't immodest or something. But in this discussion I really don't care how good you know anyone in this band. I just want to discuss this on a sheer factual level. Now one last time I try to ask you:
Why do you think it's Ron?

Could it be that Ronnie is a good student of his boss (Master Keith), and has learned to master/replicate/mimic the classic Keith style?
Kind of like the old '70's television series 'Kung Fu' with David Carradine...where the Master teaches the young Grasshopper the tricks of the trade.

Factual level? Argue with the band then. Not me.

There is no chance that Keith or Mick would say to Ron you play the intro in case Keith @#$%& it up

Ronnie plays some licks he learned from Keith. But the guitar on the left is totally the way Ronnie plays rhythm and later in the song he plays the lead licks and turnarounds. And Keith's guitar on the right is playing the lead intro, then mostly boogie boogie and the same turnarounds he plays on JYF. Here and there Keith throws in those licks where he hammers on the Eb, the same lick he plays on the Stripped version of Spider And The Fly, just in B Major instead of E Major.

I'm giving up. I hope you got what you wanted: You got to mention that you know the band. But I'm wondering how you discussed the songs with them when you can't do the same with me. That discussion was meant to be serious and on a musical level, not at all offending or questioning. It just turned into another one of those endless "Ask the band" and "Argue with the band" discussions without any kind of significant point. Like we've haven't already seen them enough on this board.

Hi dandelion what I meant was if it is Keith playing the intro lead on ride em on down it sounds great and he hasn't sounded that good doing lead for a long time. Let's have more of it
