What ever happened to Jim Price? Why didn't Bobby play on the 81 tour. Where did they find Ernie Watts and what happened to him? Is the guy on this tour Jim Smith,where did he come from? Who runs the horn section ont this tour?

Bobby Played on Brown Sugar in 81.
Mick didn't want him, and haven't contacted him, as you know Bobby missed some shows at the end of the 73 European tour.
But at the end of the rehearsals in 81, he showed up, and gave Mick an apology, and he had quitted drugs, he said. So, he came along, even though Mick wasn't too happy about it.

Bobby was heavy on drugs in 1978-1982 so they hired ernie watts instead, eho is a great sax player.

! question answered out of 4 ain´t bad..!

Ernie is awesome. Love his live work on Neighbours, Beast Of Burden etc..

Check this for Ernie: [www.erniewatts.com]

Another interesting question here is, what happened to Trevor Lawrence, Ollie Brown and Steve Madaio.
I just saw in a boot-CD-cover, that Madaio played trumpet/trombone on Bob Dylans' 78 tour. After that, I don't know.

And check this for more horn section facts: [www.warr.org]

I loved Ernies playing on that 81 tour....just beautiful!! And whats the story on the Matt Clifford guy?

No Jim Smith in the horn section.

Bobby Keys - sax
Tim Ries - sax (replaced Andy Snitzer in 1999)
Kent Smith - trumpet
Michael Davis - trombone

Right...Kent

As far as running the section - although Bobby sort of gets the honorary spot; the key solos, I doubt he "runs" the section. Those newer cats are all younger, quicker. More professional. Tim reis has gotten a lot of props from the Stones themsleves. But from playing with quite a few Horn sections, I have for some odd reason always found that the Trombone player usually calls the shots. Honestly don't know why.

You a Horn man ChelseaDrugstore?

I thought the Memphis Horns in '89 played with more style than the current crew (Bobby notwithstanding)...cases in point - Brown Sugar on Flashpoint at 2:46 into the song and the Satisfaction at 3:23...

JIM PRICE ? Here I am !
