Quotematxil The Stones have made a number of sappy, kitchy songs. Why one likes some of them and doesn't like others is hard to explain. I very much like Indian Girl and Sister Morphine and kind of like Fool To Cry and Sweethearts Together. I dislike Blinded by Love or Blinded by Rainbows or Out Of Tears. And I neither like nor dislike Streets of Love, although I can understand some peo

The 1st solo album was promising. But, like many other great players, he showed himself as not much of a writer. Some of his best, most lyrical playing is with Carla Olsen.

Just came across this on youtube and the comment section had people saying what a gem it was and were afraid it might be taken down soon. Great footage of Rock and a Hard Place and Mixed Emotions plus some casual chat in between. The first half hour is just them having dinner so probably not that entertaining

QuoteFeelslikeaGhost QuoteGasLightStreet QuoteFeelslikeaGhost Listening to the new live tracks, great stuff. Is there any particular reason why they are playing Angry half a step down? The original track is in the key of B but this version is in Bb. even Ronnie's setlist has it labeled as B. The tuning doesn't reflect the key - a B is still played as a B, even if their tuned to B fla

Quoteemotionalbarbecue I cant play guitar and I don´t know anything about them. The only thing I know is that I love how they sounded at the time of iorr recording. How did they get that sound is a mistery for me. But it sounds glory. That's interesting. I love the IORR album, but IMo the outtakes and roughs sound better than final release. It's like the engineers at the Munich studio

It's Keith's harmony during "she sang a song to me". I say it every time this song comes up.

Interesting how Keith plays the chords to 'Angry' different from Mick. Doesn't bother with the sus notes. Kind of hope they keep the stripped down line-up. Never thought much about Clifford either way, but he's good on the piano slot. More subtle.

Love this album. It puzzles me when in the GHS, IORR, B&B thread I see many posts stating that one of those 3 was the last great Stones album. They are all before SG, TY or UC. (Even B2B, which IMO is the last great one)

Quotetreaclefingers QuoteSomeGuy One of my favourite albums, still. Actually the first Stones record I owned. I have always regarded it as a fresher, more modern sounding album than the more or less stale sounding GHS, something which was confirmed by the story about Jimmy Miller wasting their time at the studio and Keith and Mick taking over the production duties at the time.

I just got done listening to the alternate version; all early or alternate mixes. Just lightyears better and tougher than the official. Whoever threw the blanket over the mix/mastering desk in Munich did this album in. GHS has received much late acclaim, and IORR would have kept the big run going.
