I think that guy was such a fool!

He had everything handed to him. He was a guy whose playing no one realy heard until the Stones caught on and asked him to be in the band.

It was a really good thing both for him and the Stones.

Then he gets all ticked 'cause Mick didn't do this, that or whatever.

I really miss him sometimes though, but Woody is still THE MAN.

taylor is a great guitarist but i dont think he would of adapted to the styles of music the stones were playing in the mid to late 70's . taylor was bored with the stones and the music would of suffered if he stayed

No, no, that's just the story they want you to think, we all know that Taylor was given the boot, because Jagger was tired of having 2 Micks in his band....it was stealing his thunder, Taylor never wanted to leave, he was told to leave. Oh, by the way, I've got some Ice in Alaska I'd like to sell.

What an imbecil thread

I agree. this thread had absolutely no basis of fact from the beginning.EVERYONE in the british blues scene 1969 knew exactly who Taylor was. Filling Claptons shoes was no small order!

OH NO NOT ANOTHER TAYLOR WOOD THREAD, PLEASE MAN GET A LIFE DUDE

Y'know I thought this was going to be speculation the track on A BIGGER BANG was about Mr. Taylor instead we have a rant intended to upset a portion of the fans which is all a bit silly. Why not start a thread OH NO NOT BRIAN JONES AGAIN or OH NO NOT CHUCK LEAVELL AGAIN or OH NO NOT BV AGAIN if the only goal is to get a rise out of people.

It was a painful to me to see Mick Taylor playing in a club in Amstelveen Holland,1997..
His slide playing was great,I remember he fastened his shoelace in the middle
of a guitarsolo.

There were maybe 35 people who were hanging around there anyway and maybe 10 people really listening to him.
He played in the greatest R&R band in the world.

How come?

Where the hell did this all come from?

another stones basher posing as a stones fan is where it comes from. either that or a bad acid trip.

If you didn't know Taylor, you didn't know music. Period. This thread is another way to take pot shots at Taylor. What a ridiculously stupid thread.

What do you mean with "i dont think he

The Stones were lucky to have guest players like H.Mandel & W Perkins.
Musicaly Ron Wood has taken them nowere exept the fact that he is a true member,
and that's maybe the main reason why Mick& Keith took him in the band.

i seriously can not see taylor playing songs like miss you , shattered, hey negrita,emotional rescue, and dance pt1 .

2 years practice guitar and you can play it.
To write and produce it is another matter.

I love the work of Brian,Taylor and Ronnie!! I wish they all could play together so we have the Rolling Skynyrd!

Mick Taylor was a Rolling Stone. You never were. You sit in judgement of him. But who do you think had the better life?

Think about it.

Before you make such a criticism, try walking a few miles in his shoes. What sounds and looks glamorous and great to you wasn't to him after a time. I think Woody said something to Eric Clapton when Eric stated would be better replacement for Mick along the lines of "Yeah, but you would have to live with them," meaning Mick and Keith. (Does anyone have the actual quote by the way?)

As always, ChrisM is 100% on-the-mark!

The main problem was that Mick Taylor never
really had the right hair-do to be in the Rolling Stones.....



ROCKMAN

who is mick taylor?

Dave - Are you serious??

Keep talking about Taylor people, maybe one of these days the Glimmer twins
will get that odd idea and re-assemble that 70's lineup with Wyman & Taylor
(and Ronnie)

Maybe one of these days... wonder if Bill Wyman might throw out an invite
to Jagger or Watts for the Bash???

Chuck Berry won't let Keith in though ever since Keith put that bug in Johnny
Johnson's ear to sue Chuck over writing credits..

Oh- where have I heard about that subject????

MLC

Let's kick around Blondie. Let's kick around Chuck. Let's kick around MT. Geez, when's it gonna stop. What a boneheaded thread!!

Scotty

yeah why not bash around dick taylor and nick avery while we are at it , blimy
