Charlie ends the song too soon...and Keith reacts...Or have I been wrong all these years? How can I go on???

I find it difficult to hear and see. Taylor first makes a stop, then Richards seems to indicate to Charlie to end, Charlie reacts and Keith seems to continue with the descending riff, to which Charlie reacts by continuing while Richards stops.

In any way, to me Richards directs his gestures not to Charlie but to somebody next to Charlie behind the amps.

Maybe Bianca was standing there ><

There's a story from their Farewell to England/Tax Exile Tour in which they performed poorly one show and Bill told them in the dressing room afterwards they had played like shit. Keith just took it and Mick agreed, saying something like, 'Oh, well, on to the next one.'
Point being they have probably been slagging each other like that forever. Everything from 'Shut up, Keith' to the 'Brenda' campaign. I'm sure Charlie just rolls with it, and probably has delivered some shots along the way.

Charlie's still wiv 'em ….

As I say guys can do those things to each other ……

Yes that is a good story. I remember it goes on to tell that Bobby tries to uplift them by saying "My golden sax carried you all". But then the next show they tear it up, and do encores. That is where I saw Bill Wyman's quote "Uh Peggy Sue?", when they were debating what to play.

Keith definitely gives Charlie "the look" to end the song, but it seems Charlie ended sooner than Keith intended. Keith is laughing as he flips Charlie off. I think this is just a good-natured "$%@! you" between long-time friends and bandmates. No one else could get away with it.

Nah you're all wrong!
What happened is Keef saw Elton John wandering at the back of the stage and he had a good old hand movement.

That's what our lip readers say...

But another thing is did Taylor pay any attention.... If we look what he would do in following tours, not much...

Well, it's Keith's riff and I do not know where Taylor is going here, but Taylor's vision evolved and less than a year and half later he expressed it at Brussels for the greatest live version of this song and one of the great stage moments ever for the band.

Why do you think Brussels is the greatest live version? I think it drags a bit compared to other versions from that era.

At the end of the song Taylor gives Keith a blank look and turns his back. One wonders what he is thinking at the moment.

One other thought about Taylor and TD. In the Montreux sessions during TD 1 Taylor mangles the solo; but during TD 2 he knows exactly where he is going. I've always thought that the TD 1 performance was a "set up" (to give it that "rehearsal" feeling) for the very nice 2nd performance.
