So great. The song is genius. It emotes such feeling with the chords and strings and lyrics and Mick’s vocals and guitars and keyboards... Love how he breaks it all down. Wish they would play it in Glendale.Quote

That E7/G# chord I wonder if that was Keith or maybe Nicky Hopkins influence

That E7/G# chord I wonder if that was Keith or maybe Nicky Hopkins influence but the G Sus4 to Fsus 4 is all Keith type playing. I love when he talks about the chorus when Mick sings Angie and Mick singing the D on the G chord.

That is sure a thing, the musical relationship between Keith and Nicky. They were killer togheter. And also, I think the voice line is modelled "after" what Nicky played, they are so close. Listen in Following the river, Mick is followin what Nicky is singing on the piano a lot of times.
Angis is such a treasure. Maybe Nicky's top playing. Easy, inspired, inspirational. Keith on acoustic, his other voice. Charlie fills are so amazing, just a hi-hat stroke and you realize how great he is. Jagger at his top singing, too. The remains of another vocal take buzzing in the background really create the atmosphere of the song. Bill Wyman, as always, making magic, you think he is not there, but when you realize he is there, wow, you just can't focus on other sound.
Such a shame they put Mick T. faking the piano solo in the video.

I've not listened to it enough to see if it's a different take or an entirely new recording just for the promo film but they did 2 mixes, one without strings and another, the LP version minus the lead vocal, for a "live" vocal, for the promo film. "Prepared backing track" is either a different mix or is a new recording.
