During “Slipping Away” there are two guys with leaf blowers onstage. WTF. I used to have a neighbour that would be out on Sunday mornings at 8:00 AM with his leaf blower. I should have done a Keith and said to him - “Slip Away pal!” Great show tonight.

I was working at Kingman & James Streets. Hamilton, Ontario at the time. Hamilton is close to Toronto. When I heard of the 2nd gig I drove up after work and tried to get in to the club. No such luck. I went around the back alley and saw the gear being loaded in. One of which being Keith’s plexiglas. Anyway despite my lack of success I have this release. Listened to it all tonight. It is brill

Nice to see he gets a mention here and thanks DGA35. More facts: His father was Jack Parnell. Most persons growing up in the 1960’s in the UK would recognize that name. “Jack Parnell & His Orchestra.” From “Sunday Night At The London Palladium.” This also from Wiki - “ During the 1940s and 1950s, he (Jack) was voted best drummer in the Melody Maker poll for seven years in succession.”

Quotetreaclefingers Here's something sort of interesting that I never noticed. On some early stones releases, the song credits were Richard, Jagger. Never noticed that before, have Keith ahead of Mick in the credits. Here is a link to the Heart of Stone release, US, on the purple and white label: Richard, Jagger are also credited to the B-side “What A Shame.” But then I have the

I heard Taylor and Grohl being interviewed on Howard Stern last month. They were brothers in arms for sure. So sad that his life has ended at the age of only 50 and at a pinnacle in a career. R.I.P. Taylor, many thanks for the music.

Great interview today on the Howard Stern show. Neil has such a huge musical history that Stern could only touch on so much of that. I will listen to this one again. Interesting story on the “Barn” as a recording studio (and where the latest album w/Crazy Horse was recorded) and its resurrection from its early days as a prior Wells Fargo stagecoach stopover. Here’s a bit more about the new album

I got it also when it was issued. Our dog at that time (named Mick) chewed the box corners a bit. I had left it on the floor unattended after it was delivered/unpacked and didn’t notice him (Mick, our dog) coming into my home office. While I was working. I was so pissed off at the damage but we loved Mick (the dog) and there was no chastisement. Never would be. In our house. Mick was a lovely dog

Landmark album. My favourite tracks are “When the Levee Breaks” and the brilliant “Four Sticks.” Re: “Stairway To Heaven.” Quote.

I knew where and how I was going to begin. And I just did it. There was an amplifier that I w

For those with the SiriusXM app it is worth checking out last Thursday's Howard Stern Wrap Up Show which can be listened to on demand. The guest is Michael Pagnotta, a music publicist who has worked with many artists including time with The Stones. There is some good insight on the interview with Mick and also how these things are arranged.

Quotesnorton Is there any motiviation for Mick to finally do this, other than selling tickets? As noted by some here already Stern has mellowed.

And Stern has interviewed some of Mick's pals over the past couple of years like

It was funny when he’d have Beetlejuice on the show. I wonder what happened to that guy? I think that I heard a few months ago on the show that Beetlejuice is now off doing his own thing making money.
