He did it.
For the first time ever.
Just one brief afternoon rehearsel during the soundcheck was enough for Mick Taylor to give birth to the first ever live version of:

TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE

A full house last night in Holland withnessed this historical moment.
Never before played live by any of the original bandmember.
The crowed pick it up the chorus of the song and sang along while Mick was fully concentrated on his guitarlines.

Erwin Nijhof took care of the vocals and the additional acoustic guitar.

Goose pimples and wet tears I can assure you.

I hope a copy of it surfaces. God bless Mick Taylor.

I have a recording of this song, November 24th, 2001, anywhere in Holland.
Beautifull!

its been done by taylor before, what are you talking about

If you want to see more of Erwin Nyhoff playing Stones: live on stage at Valkenburg "De Terp", Zuid-Holland, December 9, 2006: Erwin Nyhoff & Flip the Switch.

See [www.abramusic.nl]

On the second and final night of the Bluesnight in Ochten Mick did it again.
For the second time ever LIVE he played Time Waits For No One.

In a different arrangments than the first night.
It was more difficult Mick mentioned after the show. The stagesound was not mixed well. The acoustic guitar was way down.

Mick once did a studio version in 2001, which was used for a Dutch Radio staion Radio 192.

During the encore he used Erwin's Telecaster.

sorry i meant FATTER ok, in my rush i spelled it wrong, but he is fat lets face it

so is BB King; so was Muddy Waters; so was Albert King; so was Howlin' Wolf. What's your point? It's in the blooze tradition, fer crissakes.....

nothing is wrong with it, its just that he was stones thin when he was with them
then he became a cow when he left, i know he is a brilliant guitar player, i am not the only one who has ever poked fun at taylor being fat on this board, plus those guys you mention above were always fat

actually - he was pretty slim/trim up to the early 90's. Remember seeing him in SF in 1992 and he was pretty much of the same build as he was back in the 70's.

oh ok , i wasnt sure when he really became heavy

Funny coincidence, a few hours ago I had to look up things for a friend of mine who had downloaded a bootleg in Singapore or the like of an Eric Clapton concert in Montevideo in 1990 with Mick T as opener. I told him that I have a bootleg of Mick's part including 4 EC songs (Pretending, I shot the Sheriff). So I delved through the shelve and found out Mick must have been in a very good shape - as StonesTod remembered - because he played about 100 concerts in 1990! If you look at German Stones specialist Nico Zengraf (www.nzentgraf.de) after that he must have declined.
I saw him first time performing live - there was nothing wrong with his playing though - in November 1992 and he suddenly was just the guitarist in a gang (sorry, I meant "band") of junkies, playing Hip Shake and You Gotta Move as the only remnants of his repertoire. He certainly wasn't as slim as with the Stones but he was in his mid-40s and so his looks might be ok. Then, I didn't dare to get backstage, so I can't tell you more. But something between 1990 and 1992 changed him to the worse.
But those reports from the Netherlands sound great! Welcome back to the family, prodigal son.
