Black Limou? Are you sure Dandy? Keith always plays it in standard live...
Stop Breaking Down I ain't sure of but I would guess it's in standard.
Baby Break It Down is 100% Standard, it's the b Sharp/F riff using the root note similar to Ronnie's riff in Start Me Up so that's a standard.
Too Tough and Too Tight, yeah, open G

Come on Mate! Brixton 1995, Keith uses his TV Junior Single Cut, standard all the way………;-)
Alright, there are more numbers where they have used open G to decorate the sound but I wrote my list as a list of songs where the main riff/chords are open G. BBID is written in standard I'm pretty sure, as is Hey Negrita.

I started a list a long time ago. It's interesting how it kind of goes away in the mid-1970s.
Is your list still around somewhere?

No. Before Google backup.
Before They Make Me Run is the only one on SG.
Weird, eh?
How many on ER? None that I can recall.

I believe that Winter on GHS has Mick J playing rhythm in Open G (Capo 2nd fret)...

Chronologically(studio recordings only)....
I Don’t Know Why
There are several songs where Brian played in open G as well.
Might have misunderstood something, but
Studio version of You can't always get is open E (+ standard 2nd guitar)
I Don’t Know Why rhythm guitar is open g, solo standard
I would add Hey negrita to the open G list (keith's guitar).
C
Yep, you're right. I was mixing it up re YCAGWYW. The Rock'n'Roll Circus-version was in standard tuning.
Are you sure I Don't Know Why is in open G? I can't hear any signs of that. He keeps busy with more notes than usual Hey Negrita is indeed in open G.
Checked out yesterday: I don’t know why is 100% open G (

If memory serves, there weren't any open G-tracks from Keith until HTW. We were debating whether he had removed the dark E-string on the Hyde Park-gig or not. The beast was still fresh

It is an interesting sidenote that the Keith Richards Mick Taylor get to know when entering his first Stones sessions was the one taming the 'beast': "Honky Tonk Women", "Jiving Sister Fanny", "I Don't Know Why", "I'm Going Down"... A good timing to enter!

Isn't that a regular Asus - A in standard?

BTW, the only song they have released, featuring Ronnie on open G (that I know of), is Little Red Rooster from El Mocambo.

Downtown Suzie is the only one in open G, but it was played by Ry Cooder (where the in-between licks later to be heard on HTW with Keith were featured)..

Are you sure? It sounds like his Zemaitis in Open E, like he also did on Knebworth. Keith is in Open G though, also on his Zemaitis.

Nope, open. If it’s not what Keith used, I’d still recommend it. Works beautifully!

Keith is standard. Ronnie is playing slide in open G, and there's also another guitar that's most likely Mick thats in open G.
also on Little Red Rooster, Ronnie is 100% open G. Just watch him at the Knebworth or Oakland 2013 versions and try what he does in open E and you'll see what I mean. It's most certainly open G.
