You Got The silver for me... Well, I love the 2007 live version - probably not one of his best vocals, but very emotional, it had everything it should have. And the album version is just incredible.

Eileen.

back-up vox on "Casino Boogie" and "only RnR"

One vote for "The Worst". Such a simple, but deep song and what a performance.

Keith's only good vocal is "You Got the Silver" from Let It Bleed

OH NO HE DIDN'T!!!!

Sure the One you Need
Over the Rainbow (bootleg version w/ Bobby Keys)
Nearness of You (bootleg version w/ Bobby Keys)

I just listened to You Got The Silver from SAL. That's a damn fine vocal effort from Keith.

I'm with Elmo. As soon as I saw the thread title, "All About You" was the first thing that came to mind. Beautiful vocal.

The Harder They Come on 45 complete with pops and crackles!

Elmo Lewis
"All About You"

First thing to come to my mind too!

I love his Learning the Game from the Austin show. I'll nominate that for best live vocal from Keith.

Of course, Wicked As It Seems. Of course indeed!

Anything, as longs as it's not the horrible, terible, vomit invoking "Thru and Thru". A drunken, false-teeth rattling, plain bored to death song...Of the worst album ever released by the Stones, this song is the low point...

Mathijs

Agreed on Thru and thru, but then B2B he came out with the highlight of that album. The last two songs just blew me away - Thief in the Night and How Can I stop.

The vocal effort on You Got the Silver on SAL really surprised me and possibly everyone in the cinema on that night.

And let's not forget his backing vocals on many songs, not least Casino Boogie and, live, Sweet Virginia in the early 70s tours.

Couldn't have said it better myself, awfully horrendous... just puts me to sleep.

Its hard for me to pick a favorite.. but If I may comment on thru and thru: I think it is a great song. It took a while to grow on me but now I think quite highly of it. Especially the live version on Four Flicks. theres such warmth in the lines "any minute any hour, just waiting on a call from you/ you know this heart is constant ..." both in the way in sings it and in the words themselves. and the way the song picks up in the end is very cool.

Well, I've been repeatedly listening to one of those Head, Heart, Balls cds and (the title might be wrong) Baby, Make it Now..... followed by Break it Down (Baby, Break it Down?)

Also love Nearness of You and Almost Hear You Sigh

(sigh....)

imho "Act Together"

"No dope smoking no beer sold after 12 o'clock"

<<And let's not forget his backing vocals on many songs>>

If You Need Me deserves an honourable mention in this thread imo.

Salty Dog....

As long as he sings natural and not try to pretend as Mathijs mentioned

__________________________

I love "Losing My Touch"
Now that is singing

But I have to say this was put to bed hours ago with the mention of "Make No Mistake"

The Worst.

That high-end vocal yell Keith gave in the
mid-50's when he first heard Heartbreak Hotel.....





ROCKMAN

How can I stop, you don't move me.

his best stones vocal was anything live from 81

his best vocal over all is still a fool with hubert

OLDKR

Aside from the horrible Thru & Thru -I loath his voice on The Worst. The song's allright, but for some reason (well, being drunk and having false teeth) keith prenounces the words as "I sssshaid from the firsssht, I am ze worsht". He sounds like a 90 year old who just put his teeth besides his bed.

My favorite Keith vocals are on How Can I Stop, which to this day remains in my top three of best ever Stones songs.

Best Keith's vocals for me are on the Run Rudolph Run single (a side and flip).

Second best, Before they make me run.

Also worth to mention a very recent great delivery of Slipping Away in Zurich, August 5, 2006.

The absolute worst must be Eileen (the romans used to say nomen omen, but the Worst is only a close second ...)

C

"Deuce And A Quarter"?
"Wicked As It Seems"?
"You Don't Have To Mean It"?
"Thief in the Night" must be it.
