I was watching "Under the influence" yesterday, for the second time since it came out in 2015.
It was very funny listening to Keith talking about his thoughts of "retirement" back then....
Not sure if he'd believed you if you'd told him of HD back then - and Andy Watts etc....

While watching I realised that I am more than happy with what we are getting with "Hackney Diamonds" compared to Keith's solo LP "Crosseyed Heart",
which was featured a lot in this documentary- ofcourse due to promotion issues.

I'd highly recommend everyone to watch it again before HD comes out.
Let me know what you think.

I watched it for the first time the other day, not knowing it had been on Netflix for a while. A charming and lovely film, and as I feel that Crosseyed Heart was the best thing from the Stones universe for a very long time (then Blue & Lonesome) I'm hopeful that I can compare them positively, and that I will love Diamonds as much as I do do Heart!

It definitely gives you some insights into "the Keef Universe".
Rarely seen without a smoke

It's a fantastic documentary and nicely connects with the excellent CROSSEYED HEART, which, of course it does, it was done to promote the album!

Try to find the DVD on eBay,

Bought it also on Ebay a couple of years ago, but I never watched the other dvd's, which are also in the booklet.
