I liked the stories Richards told in his book about the Some Girls sessions, if they are accurate.

Who ever played the solo it sounded like the amp was at the other side of a big room on full blast. When played live didn't Wood start 'She was Hot?' One of only two songs, the other being 'She's So Cold" that I ever saw Wood start when playing live. Anyone know of any others?

Mick made every effort to walk away from the Stones, and I dont say that to be mean towards Mr Jagger. I have no idea how much KR & MJ have apparently hated each other or when it started. I do know that KR made it a contract issue that MJ had to leave the stage during 81 tour when KR did Litle T&A. Jagger seems to have checked out after Undercover. Shes the Boss, (I didn't like th

To me the album showed a band in transition. Half of the creative team was zonked out on dope. Several guitar players. only 8 tracks and one was a cover. Some nice moments on the album but to me it always seemed directionless and devoid of any real energy. with that said though, Id still take this album over many other bands.

It would seem that Cooder helped KR become more aware of alternate tunings that KR was monkeying around with already at that time. What matters is what KR and MJ did with that open G tuning. Also, in the 45 years since KR supposedly ripped off Cooder....what has Cooder done? You didn't hear Muddy Waters and all those guys walking around saying "everybody ripped me off' Je

Around 1999 I was in a studio in Long Island, Lyric Studios. One of the sound guys who worked there was a burned out old dude named Frank Rocco. He told me how he was involved in Thief in the Night, setting up mics and stuff..and that Keith Richards did vocal tracks, with a couple of other dudes, erasing Mick's vocals and then went back to Connecticut that night on a boat across Long Island

If I had to release Bridges I would have left off Anybody seen my baby, Always Suffering. I appreciate Mick infusing some 90's elements. I love that fact that Keith "stole" Thief in the Night, re-recorded the vocals in a little studio on Long Island then shipped the masters out without telling anyone...hence 3 Keith songs. Pretty good album. Love the live upright bass on Flip a

Giants Stadium 1997..Anybody Seen My Baby....live it was a real dud. The song that stole the show? Out of Control. It was really great. I like No Security. Agree with above that Memory Motel would have been really enjoyable without Dave Matthews

KR plays one guitar in open G. One in standard. just listen to song and try to play it. It sounds like the open G was an verdub to fill out the sound and add some punch.

Little T&A original studio version is a combo of standard tuning and open G.

I like Steel Wheels. To me it was a return of the Stones. After no tour in 1984,Dirty Work solo work (which never felt right to me because Mick/Keith without the other) and the idea that the Stones were never to be heard from again...Steel Wheels hit the spot. It WAS a light album in terms of theme...and I thought it fit perfectly for the time. It was an upbeat album for an upbeat time within

Does anyone know what guitars KR used on recording like Monkey Man, Brown Sugar, CYHMK, The Exile songs (is that when Telecasters really made their appearance? Beast of Burden? etc. Any info on any songs would be appreciated and interesting. Thanks.

Keith Richards looks great. I wish that he had to quit the "bump" and all the other stuff earlier in his life.
