This song just resonates about the loss of love and life.It’s so great I’m surprised it hasn’t been covered more by other artists

How would you all characterize Thru and Thru compared to the great Slipping Away? Love that song also.....

I too saw a three song Keith set at the BC Place in Vancouver in the last of the North American leg of the ABB tour show which was comprised of:

You Got The Silver
Slipping Away
Connection

Probably something to do with Mick's voice again. Someone here might remember better than I.

Addendum: during the Keith set, my daughter and I left our sixth row seats no, not for a bathroom break, but to walk to the B stage, got a perfect spot on the rail, and were waiting for the band to slide out on their moving platform when some guy on the inside of the rail approaches my daughter and hands her two Keith guitar picks. Turns out he was Tony Russell, Keith's personal assistant.

Were likely very close to each other there..
We slid over to the area in front of whee the the b stage was going early Great show!

It was Mick's throat that was the official cause of the postponement, although I believe original date was also very close to the passing of his father which may have also been a factor.

That show was the first one I ever travelled to. A friend and her husband joined me - he’s a huge fan but had never seen them live. We had floor seats by the B-Stage and when the stage started moving down the floor toward us, he was so excited. Then [ahem] a bunch of folks with great seats rushed down and pushed in front of us... Somebody here owes me a damn drink! (Also, Slipping Away is my favourite Keith track and YES he should get 3 damn songs!)

A nice rendition on Stripped as well.

Don't worry, Witness. It seems to be the order here that most fans like almost everything they put out.
Dirty Work seems to be the exception though. And, perhaps, some of the Jagger solo material.

This is a track that stands out for many fans, so I don't think your comment hits home this time, mate.

Had, say, Blinded By Rainbow gotten the same reception, I would have agreed with you, though

I for one think that "Blinded by Rainbows" is not great or semi-great, but really good all the same. And, in fact and of all things, it is an anti-terrorist song, somehow making it unique!

The live version from Rome I liked. So the song is better than the studio track with the name "Streets of Love".

That's great, but from what I can see it's not a tune that most fans praise. It was just used as an example here to show that Stoneage's claim was incorrect. Had it been correct, the Blinded By Rainbow-track talk would have been full of posts praising it. I'm not sure if that is the case.

Maybe it wasn't the best example. Let's take Streets Of Love instead

Hehe, I too love the odd 'unpopular' song, like Lies and Fight, but I have no expectations of finding a thread where those tunes are praised by most fans. That was my point

That wasn't me STG, honest!! We simply walked down there during the first or second song of the 3 song set and no one was on the B stage rail, so we just took a spot and waited.

PS Having said that, I will buy you a beer, perhaps the next time at the Ealing Club or watching the IORR band at a place like the Hope and Anchor! You were at both of those gigs, weren't you, or at least the latter??

Both are crap but SOL is the worst!


That should help clarify things, eh?

Instead of finding it quite hollow under a seemingly catchy surface, there even are some posters that think "I Go Wild" is excellent.

Probably a good song,but dead boring.Same with Thru and Thru,Out of Tears and many others.I dont think many Stonesfans played that song,only Keithfans who likes jazz

Jazz is fun to play but not very exciting to listen to.
