The guy who made the video, the Mick Taylor army, general whiners, people waiting for the next "classic" (almost 30 years after of the last one), ALL of us actually.
With 46 years of Stones' history it's not too hard.

You know, you take the scenes in 1975 pics from Erik, and rebuild them in Hollywood studio (or in Las Vegas, if you like)- in this reconstruction the buildings are kept up by assistansts and sidekicks, the old 'original' cars are driven by autopilot...

Another one topic for Mick, various topics about Keith, we recycle here the same opinions every few days, on the same subjects, sometimes using the same words. Why don't we use the threads we already have on the board? It's a bit tiresom...

Notice how it is the same old people stuck in the past? Wearing their bell bottoms, eating rock candy and playing Risk.

Erik, those are interesting pictures of San Jose. That is near where I live. How did you decide on those pictures, was it just random or did you visit there or something?

Well, I'll always listen to them and will always love them.

But better singin now? Never! Perhaps he hearned some tricks and had some vocal lessons.

But in the 60's to the early 70's there was something very special in his voice.
And I really got the shivers every time I heard him.
That's gone now.

Ryan, I always check out then/now pictures of San Francisco or the areas nearby, it was such a cool atmosphere there, in the Hitchcock movies - especially Vertigo, and the TV series Streets Of San Francisco, Dirty Harry....etc etc Now....it's more hum hum, but there's the occasional glimpse of grandour...even now. Facinating city - at least from a distanse

Maybe,-
but I try to see it from a objective view.To me he was a much better Rock singer than!
I think even Mick sees it that way.(In a interview).

Hum - yeah - hum ...I know what ya mean, somehow.

but... objective - one can be when the Stones are discussed in the past tense, imho.
I mean how long did it take the Mickster to let the R&R Circus out?
everything seems to look & sound better in hind sight.
Dirty Work had a bad rap at it's time, but it grew with time. and thats not the only album.

I hope we can speak in 10 years time about SAL's JJF and objectiveness.

yes I agree!

the then/ now pictures are fascinating. The movie Zodiac came out last year but It takes places in SF mostly in the late 60's thru the 70's. I really like the way it looks. If you haven't seen it its a crime mystery about the Zodiac Killer. warning though : its long and you have to really pay attention to follow the plot. but well worth it.

And actually I liked the pics from 1975 (thanks Erik). Made me think of the great American films of the 70s.

Just San Fransisco or other parts of the US as well? Cool pics, thanks for posting. It looked a bit like the midwest, dunno why, maybe the low houses.

Look guys, these kind of threads are started by guys who feels/are old now, and don't have the guts or balls to do something about it like Mick has done amazingly for many years now, and many years to come. I truly feel sorry for them, and use it as a strong motivation NEVER to end up like them, and keeping the focus and energy on the future and not the past, just like Mick!
Enough said!

Oh yeah, that is also the reason I don't like Jesus, because I can not be as humble and merciful and ethical as him.

(I never understand the people who are comparing the FANS to their IDOLS - two absolutely different entities, and the relation between them is not equal. It is not only tasteless, but also a fallacy to do that.)

I don't know how you can bring Jesus into this. Nobody knows him because most of it has been made up and blown out of proportion. He's been so over hyped it's beyond funny. We know a lot about Mick Jagger as a frontman for a rock band etc...

Well, they wrote a book about the guy. There has been critical discussion about its historical accuracy, but hey... you don't take ACCORDING TO THE ROLLING STONES neither as a bible... or do you?

And hmmm,.. we actually do know quite a lot about Jesus as a frontman for a religion - I think has been covered and discussed quite more than Mick Jagger as a frontman for a rock band... I think the Nasaretian guy is even better known for his role than our Mick (and don't believe what that stupid Lennon guy says...)

Schwarzbuch and Weissbuch would be the 2 Rolling Stones bibles...
