I don't know how you just play in the wrong key by accident, switching keys is something you really have to think about

On Tumbling Dice, Keith was supposed to play Don't Stop, so his capo was on the wrong fret. On Sympathy For The Devil it was Mick who had some kind of problems with voice (maybe monitor issues), so the rest of the band had to adapt and change the key.

The most prominent thing must be two years ago Keith trying to play Midnight Rambler on his Strat he intended to use for Paint It Black. That lasted only for a few bars but Mick and Darryl sort of went along with it

No Expectations on Rock'n'Roll Circus was definitely in the wrong key for Mick to sing. Don't know why they changed it.
IORR has at least had three different keys over the years. The version in G on LYL sounded best, imo.

Don’t forget in Argentina 2016 when Keith started Tumbling Dice instead of It’s Only Rock N Roll on the ES-335. Wrong guitar, wrong tuning, without capo.

Dandy is correct, it's in G on LYL. But I would say they've only done it in G and B through the years. What would the 3rd key be in?

Isn't it in E on the studio version?

After all this time I think they should try the original E for IORR, with that slower tempo, live on stage.
The modern renditions in B often swing beautifully ...but the original had a different kind of sleazy swagger, which would be nice hear again .

Mick had no trouble singing it with the Foo Fighters, in E

The 1976 versions of It's Only Rock 'N Roll is in G, but the 1975 versions is in B. The one on Love You Live is from 17th June 1975.
Exactly , that has always been my take that it has more to do with Mick's range of vocals versus the occasional flub that we are all guilty of .Quote
