QuoteDandelionPowderman Ronnie plays drums on Sleep Tonight. Well, what you're hearing obviously emanates from a drum kit. ...'plays'... in this context is restricted to a participatory term.

And one last bit of whimsy: Tumbling Dice with horn stabs after each line of verse after the first chorus would've been awesome.

-Keith and Ronnie are basically Jimmy Johnson and Eddie Hinton. It’s a tad whimsical but one can imagine ‘I’ll Take You There’ with the former duo on guitars rather than the latter, and, either KR or RW capable of the quirky but memorable Hinton guitar solo. -A goodly amount of Keith’s most famous riffs -Tumbling Dice/Monkey Man/Beast Of Burden/Can’t You Hear Me Knocking et al. would be righ

QuoteRedhotcarpet Nah. I like the intro with Billy but Ronnie lacks timing and the skills to pull off a solo unlike Taylor. Ronnie shows off a couple of tricks in this solo but it doesnt help since the solo isnt fluid. Where's the :eye roll: emoji?

Mick, how much longer are you going to allow Trump to use YCAGWYW? ...or has the bloviating pustule of fake tan paid his fair share of abuse? My apologies if this has been covered.

QuoteDandelionPowdermanStar Star, Silver Train and Dancing With Mr. D are too weak to be corner stone rockers on a Stones album, imo. Especially the two latter songs. Star Star immediately suffered from the burden of it's name. Who the hell calls that song that dumbass name in that context at that time? Would've been better off calling it 'Censored' or something equally as s

GHS. To my ears the first of many Stones albums wrecked by the Glimmer's. They made Mick Taylor small and would repeat that mistake on IORR. Would've loved to have heard 'Silver Train' before Mick & Keith got their hands on it. IMO, the song's on GHS are better than the what the master left us with. The DWMD of Brussels really knocks the snot out of the album

QuoteNaturalust Just to be clear, here is a video of Taylor noodling away on CYHMK, Not only is Jagger encouraging his playing (02:17) , both Keith and Ronnie seem to give him high praise and support after the song is done. Started watching at 02:17. Woke up at twenty to four.

Keith doesn't look happy in that first picture. I think he's worried about Ronnie's reluctance to tour on his own given the latter's attachment to all the accoutrement (s) of a typical Stones tour.

Across town in Detroit, possibly the very same afternoon, I was in my office at Motown Records when Barry Gordy walked in and said "you won't believe what just happened! stevie wonder called me up and said he ain't going to let me put him in a tuxedo and he's going out to tour with the rolling stones instead!" my jaw dropped. &
