It's really amazing how Keith can still play rhythm guitar so well with his rheumatoid fingers. It's not just playing, Keith also did a lot of work on important at zake. He even went to the studio at night.
Further regarding Mick, Mick also worked very hard to ensure that the new drummer Steve put down more varied drumming. Because with the Winos it was a very monotonous irritating sound. With all this, the band delivered a fantastic album.
Agreed, I recently listened to Talk is Cheap and the production makes it sound like it's a solo album by a drummer. Generally speaking I don't really get the unconditional praise Jordan gets for his hard hitting drumming. I have no doubt he's very gifted given where he ended but I haven't heard it very often. Take WWW, he's hammering around as if it was a sport. Impressive but where's the art/style? Angry is a lot more interesting and that's probably due to the lengthy rehearsing Mick said he'd done with him in Jamaica'
As if it wasn't bad enough he found it appropriate to shoot of his mouth in Mojo in a manner that I don't recall ever seeing from a sideman or even a Stone. Uncalled for and inappropriate to say the least...Twenty five years ago he would likely have been sidelined like Chuck was for saying much "milder" stuff.

i just got done reading thru about 10 pages of this thread so forgive me for bring this up here
but as it relates to keith playing solos on this record i'm pretty sure he plays at least a few of the fast one (not that i've decided which ones yet mind you) and he is under the right circumstances still very capable of playing fast
bitch brussels 2022 2:12 - 2:38

if he's able to play like that onstage then in the studio with the ability to try as many times as he likes for as long as he wants (as long as he's done before valentine's day) i'm sure he could play as well or likely better
My sentiments exactly, Keith receives a very negative biased rap on this board, they try to rewrite history and now it goes so far as surmise that Ronnie plays the best/ fast guitar parts on the new album without it being a fact.
Last year Keith really shined on tour and Ronnie to be honest struggled, i get the impression a lot of regular posters, you know the resident trolls, discredit Keith where possible and it's continued through these past 10 pages of this thread.
I find it confusing as Stones fans to constantly take credit away from Keith while pouring praise towards Mick and Ronnie. It's fascinating to be honest, thanks for the clips, when you are actually at the shows the power of Keith still hits you hard when he's in the right mood, he's still inspirational even with those arthritic fingers and I'm sure he Kicked ass on the new album. although the way it's produced sound wise it's difficult to tell who plays what.

... Great vocals from Mick. Where has this Mick been for the past how many years?? ...
Mick's vocals have been nothing short of stellar in recent years, check out SuperHeavy, Eazy Sleazey, and even Blue & Lonesome.
Bite Your Head Off even sounds a bit like Eazy Sleazey.
I meant in strict regard to The Rolling Stones.
I loved Eazy Sleazy. It's easily in his Top 5 best solo tunes. His vocals are incredible.
SuperHeavy... nah. That was awful. BLUE AND LONESOME he did have some stellar moments.

Thank you but it is not very specific about the core band..on Depending On You it does'nt say if Mick is on guitar, for example..

I meant Mick's vocals on SuperHeavy, which are great! ... although I do think the album is also great, Mick's best non-Stones effort (yes, to me even better than Wandering Spirit).

Well. Saturday. This album is really talking to me. It´s like a small, small BAG of candy. When saturday comes...I let it all out...I remember my youth - I relate to how I try to cope now...Life is a rollercoaster. Thank you, for the music.

If one is not to be able distinguish Keith and Ronnie's way of playing guitar from each other (both have a very idiosyncratic style), I don't know what kind of "fact", beyond one's ears, is needed to prove that it is Mick Jagger, not Keith Richards, who does the lead vocals on, say, "Angry".
Furthermore, like always this is a dick contest for you. If Mick or Ronnie shines, and that is recognized by people, for you that is nothing but putting Keith down. In your world there is only one star that is allowed to shine. Mick and Ronnie are your enemies - the guilty ones taking the spotlight away from Keith - and your purpose here is to tell us how awful those two guys are - something you do in order to "defend" Keith Richards - like he would need any that kind of bullshit to offend his band mates. Keith once said, "I shine when the band shines". I assume, you never got that?
Like I told you before, but you never listen: The Rolling Stones is not The Winos in where there is only one solo star shining. You are a fanatic Keith fan, not a Stones fan. Be once - to use your favourite term - honest and admit it. It would make life easier both for you and for us.

Agreed, Superheavy was an excellent album and Mick's vox were great. I wouldn't rate it ahead of Wandering Spirit but there was very little not to like on that album.

Of course i admit Keith's limitations since 2003, he's a shadow of the performer he once was, Mick is still an incredible performer in comparison, but it's obvious Keith was a forse of nature back in the day, i celebrate the whole history of the Stones, i don't really understand your post and why you feel the need to constantly chime in against me, i can only suggest you try to encourage gruupthink, cancel out posters that don't agree with you.

How can it be the 66th annual awards when they started 64 years ago, in 1959, which means the 2024 award show would be the 64th annual (yet alone it wasn't concurrent in years - the first year there were two! - and 1960 was skipped! It hasn't truly been annual since 1962!)?
Because people don't understand what "inaugural" and "annual" means.
So dumb.

Why didn't they push the album with a new video? Mess It Up would have been perfect or Get Close.
