Quotepftw04 All the 3 albums of Keith Richards are great. The guitars and vocal wise its rocking. However, the drumming was too loud. But otherwise its great. Had it continued, Expensive winos might have been a great band, barring the drum. Its too loud whoever played it Yes, the loud drumming was strange and took some time to get used to. For example in "Hate It When You Leave". But

That Lennon teased him how bad that solo was, and Keith seemingly agreed with it. - Doxa What did John Lennon know about solos? I don't remember exactly what Keith wrote about

QuoteVoodooLounge13 Now see I have a completely opposite view of B&L and think it sounds forced and far too compressed. It sounds like a bunch of old guys trying to play the blues. It doesn’t feel loose at all to me. But hey to each their own. Most in here love it. I rarely ever listen to it. For me they’re far looser on all the b-sides Mick cranks out in 5 minutes.

I am just making this up, so don't take it too seriously. But maybe when the audicience started screaming too much, it was harder to hear each other. And since Wyman needed to hear both Charlie and Keith to know the rhythm, he needed to stand close to both. Just a wild guess.

I think in the movie business, this is called "development hell". In the scientific world, it is comparable to an article that has been rejected too many times and then gets re-edited and re-edited again... At a certain point, it's almost better to throw everything away and start from scratch. One might ask "what is an album"? In the past, it meant a consistent packa

Quotematxil Tom Waits, Buddy Guy. And I'd like to add John Lee Hooker. That was cool too. And the other way around, the Rolling Stones as guests on a show of Muddy Waters was amazingly cool too. With Tom Waits, I loved how he didn't really know where to enter in the song, but both Keith and Mick knew how to fix it. It didn't matter, Tom's voice sounded great anyway.

Pity, a lot of links I am not allowed to watch from where I live. I am very happy with both the Get Yer Ya Ya's Out version and the Brussels '73 version. I'd say the Brussels versions is better, because the break/interlude is fantastic, like a guitar battle between Keith and Mick T., and Mick Jagger's voice is also fantastic, very rough, unpolished, violent.

Surprising, how much people here take Johnny Rotten/Lydon seriously. Yes, he is and always has been a great performer (like Jagger). Without him, the Pistols would have been a tight but boring pub-band. He did even greater stuff with PIL.
