A very good album. Tribute albums with lots of different artists often lack consistency, but this one is really good, imo.
And the original versions are awesome

Turd On The Run
The Stones (together with the other Zydeco musicians on the track) just burn this mother to the ground. Jagger at 81 sounds like 31... the guitars chime and churn... I mean... is this FOR REAL!? It is insane... these dudes are OCTOGENARIANS and are still upright and rocking and swinging savagely when most of their generation is dust in the wind or rotting bones on the ground. This is insane... what a Godsend...

Yeah, so much energy, this could have been recorded 40 years ago ! Talking of guitars, I'm really hearing one stand out, sounds more like Ronnie than Keith ?

Yes the guitar in the left channel is really the only I can hear distinctly and it sounds like a Stratocaster to my ears, so Ronnie ? And the ragged style too...like at Glasto the other day ;-)

Sounds like classic Keith with Micawber to me, but with a drive and attack I haven't heard for years.
The guitar is tuned in open F, though, so that's a first.
Check out Mel Belli's YouTube video for a more detailed analysis.

Yes, definitely Keith and definitely a Telecaster.
I’ve tried in vain to hear Ronnie on the track at all.

The very last lick in the end. Apart from that I can't hear him at all.

Huh, Keith has indeed not played like that for years, possibly decades ! I'm going to listen again closely with headphones.

I don't think I like Zydeco very much.
But I like the Stones contribution, mainly because it sounds less like Zydeco and more like the Stones. Mick sings it well and there are all these typical Keith like licks and phrases and small tempo delays and all that. It's got his fingerprints all over the piece.

Zydeco is extremely challenging to tolerate. A lot of songs are the same - accordion blasting away, shuffle beat. It's almost noisy music.
Zydeco isn't my favourite way to play the Blues or r'n'b either (The Rolling Stones were a R'n'B Band, not a R'n'R Band, ask Keith, or you should have asked Brian about this), but it is a legitime way to play the Blues. A lot of the songs in Blues are the same... as in Zydeco.
But what can be wrong with an album featuring so many of my musical heroes ; above all The Rolling Strones, then Lucinda Williams, John Hiatt, Taj Mahall, Steve Earle, Sonny Landreth ...

I think they mix the guitars the way they do so it’s hard to tell whether it’s Keith or Ronnie. They do love to weave.
