The Beatles also added current vocals to ancient tracks for Anthology and even this past Autumn.

Quotefrankotero If Charlie was the real boss I hope there's nothing like the Brian Epstein situation with The Beatles. For those who don't know they sort of fell apart after Brian's death. Agreed. I would hate to think the band won't still be touring stadiums in their nineties as a result.

Possibly he's done promoting his album so he doesn't need to make outrageous statements about other artists. Something Keith knows a thing or two about as well.

Supposedly it's 1990s material with a couple tracks from the CBS years. We'll see if that's true. If it's back to the classic 1970s era, this is truly unexpected.

Pino is an old friend of Keith and Steve. He was one of the final three to cut with the band at Sandymount Studios in the Autumn of 1993. He's not holding Darryl's signature bass because he replaced him. Friends visit when a band is cutting tracks or rehearsing. Even if he sat in as a favor so there was a bass player if Darryl is sick, it's just sitting in.

Wow. Cher without Sonny in the Howard Mackie days when she seemed like Elton John's counterpart. Seen now, it seems Lady Gaga patterned herself on this version of Cher when she first hatched on the music scene. Is it Vegas? Sure, right down to her own plink-plink and overdone brass section. It's also damn close to Mick at Live Aid.

Stu used to golf with them. They shared Rupert Lowenstein's services. Patrick Woodroffe worked for both of them. Andrew King and Peter Jenning who promoted The Stones in the Park in 1969 also managed Pink Floyd for a time. I think that's about it apart from the very early days of The UFO Club when Brian and Mick saw The Pink Floyd Sound in concert.

If you embrace any artist's work through this many decades, it is similar to a lifelong relationship. You remember the late teens and twenties when life was fresh and exciting. The energy of those years can never be recaptured. The next couple of decades, the relationship remains strong, you're no longer "kids," and those years are transitional without realizing it. You hit mi

Putting out "Fortune Teller" and "I've Been Loving You Too Long" with fake audience noise was shameful, though hardly unheard of in the 1960s. It would have been better to release the two songs as bonus studio tracks rather than pretend they were performed in concert, but it was a different era and labels and producers didn't care as much about "product" ha

In the sixties, the Grammy's ignored rock since the voters were of an older generation. In the late seventies, they began to take notice. SOME GIRLS had the best reception in terms of its nomination for Album of the Year. By the time they moved to CBS, pressure was exerted to ensure Mick and the Stones had nominations for Best Rock Vocal Performance. CBS also landed them a Lifetime Achieveme
