Hello everyone, miss you lots. Anyone recall where Mick lived back in those long ago NYC days? I remember it to be in the West 80s Also, Keith was UWS too then no?

not sure...probably by central park

I believe he lived near the Dakota Building in the Upper West Side near his friends Lennon and Nureyev

I believe he lived on Riverside Drive.

Check the back shed ....
He mighta left some stones tapes there ....

I heard Keith lived downtown above Tower Records. (East 4th Street)

Keith did live above Tower records.He was regularly seen walking around,often with his dog.

Keith also sold an apartment at 1 Fifth Ave...

Here is an interview from with Keef from the apartment next to Tower Records on East 4th street.

Also, as i mentioned in the linked thread about the apartment at 1 Fifth Ave,
Keef never stepped foot in that apartment.

Here is Mick after a 1981 NYC show
being escorted home.

I asked Bill German (author of the great book "Under Their Thumb") where Mick lived as I wanted the location of certain photos. Bill responded:

"135 Central Park West, between 73rd & 74th Streets. It was an apartment
building (around the corner from John & Yoko's apartment in the "Dakota"
building), where Mick lived from around 1980 to 1983."

Bill German did great reporting about the Stones during his run with the Rolling Stones fanzine "Beggar's Banquet."

If you hadn't read "Under Their Thumb," get it. I couldn't put it down. LOVE IT!

Read the story about Bill at Mick's apartment! I could picture the whole ordeal!

Here's Bill's book on Kindle: [www.amazon.com] click on the book to read some of the story of the Rolling Stones in the late 1970's and beyond.

Mick's apartment building was the Langham, not far from the Dakota.

I wrote back to Bill German....

"Yes, Mick lived at an apartment building at 135 Central Park West (bet. 73rd &
74th) from 1980 to 1983. (That's where I used to drop off the issues (of Beggars Banquet fanzine) with his
doorman.)

But then he moved to his own townhouse on West 81st Street (off of West End
Avenue), where, in September 1983, the infamous "Orange juice" incident took
place during my interview with him.

Was thinking about digging through my copies of Beggars Banquet Bill was selling (not originals) at the in-person appearances he made around the last tour.
Caught the first one in Chicago.. was great to hear his experiences and great to see all the hardcore stones fans. Lot of Stones history in that room

Somehow Mick Living in NYC doesn't feel quite right. Keith in Connecticut makes more sense.

Hi Bill, lived on UWS 81-83 and a freind walked me by Micks W81st place. Was there a large flag visible from street?

"Impressed with Beggars Banquet, the Stones gave the 'zine instant cred on the rock scene by singing its praises -- and by inviting German to hang with the band. At first a fish out of water in the company of rock royalty, German found himself spilling orange juice on a priceless rug in Mick Jagger's house and getting pegged as a narc by pals of Keith Richards and Ron Wood. But before long he became a familiar fixture in the inner sanctum, not just reporting Stones stories but living them. He was a player in the Mick-versus-Keith feud and was an eyewitness to Keith's midlife crisis and Ron's overindulgences. He even had a reluctant role in covering up Mick's peccadilloes. "In the span of a few months," German recalls, "I'd gone from wanting to know everything about my favorite rock stars to knowing too much."

In remembering Bill retelling the story, Mick was very gracious about it, cleaning it himself etc.

Thanks MisterDDDD!
