QuoteReagan QuoteMelBelli It was great for him to have been brought in from the wilderness. But it was also clear that he didn’t have much left in the tank.

He proved to be a fantastic singer from the start of the Rolling Stones: That's How Strong My Love Is, She Said Yeah, Route 66 etc etc. Many different styles and his singing is so excellent on all these tracks!!! One of the very very best in the history of music!!!

Ronnie is excellent. But Mick Taylor brought the Stones to the highest level they ever reached. Absolutely brilliant. Still during the 2013/2014 tours his performanes with the Stones were the absolute highlights for me. And I love the Jimmy Reed album Ronnie and Mick did together!

Come on guys, the Stones are no saints... If they want it the Rolling Stones can control the price of tickets.They are free to include whatever they want in contracts.They love the big money.
Forum: Tell Me

Quotecalipachangero I think the Stones themselves do not decide retail or concert prices. These kind of things seem to be part of contracts with promoters, record companies etc. And these people realize that the band soon, maybe very soon, will be gone and that means no more tours, and a steady decrease of music sales, because the main target group for physical products will be gone pretty soon

At their age and during this period of their carrier writing and recording a new album? What to expect.....? I think it's not realistic to expect that they are able to create new music that comes close to the many many brilliant recordings they already created over the years. They can be very proud of what they created.They can be very proud of what they,at their age, still can create during

This is a beautiful and genuine documentary about the greatest creator of rock and roll ever. The greatest songwriter, guitarist and performer in the history on RnR. Without him we wouldn't have been on this forum.

Quote Testify This is a tribute album to C. Berry, no desire to be "superior" to the original, but just a lot of fun! Music is not a competition, but it is also nice to listen to alternative versions, especially when they are played by artists who owe everything to these great masters of rock'n roll and blues. I agree! Ronnie is a great rock n roll guitarist who honors the mu

Taylor brought so much extra to the Stones shows 2012,2013,2014. For me Midnight Rambler was the absolute highlight of the shows. No idea why they didn't invite him again for this new tour.

We all have our favourites. There are at least 50 guitarists on my list of all time favourite guitarists. And many of them were and are very influential. But listening through the history of rock I think the most influential guitarists in the history of rock are Chuck Berry, Jimi Hendrix and The Edge. What do you think about that?

Quotewinos I've tried to listen to John Mayer but I think he is the most overrated musician (apart from Coldplay) going around. If the Stones needed another special guest Mick T would've run rings around Mayer! Just listen to his guest appearance during Respectable (2013 or 2012).Mayer is an excellent guitarist!

QuoteWroclaw Clapton 21st century shows (especially in Europe) are too often mentioned in the "most boring/sleepy gig's i've attended". Seems like people actually a "different setlist"... Saw him last year in Oberhausen and he was fantastic. One of the best concert I've ever been!

Historic Pinkpop show. The Stones were in top form. They enjoyed making music together. Could see that on their faces. Lots of smiles. Jaggers making jokes. Great start with JJF. Again a fantastic Mick Taylor during Midnight Ramber with some great rock 'n roll guitar by Ron Wood at the end! Beautiful YCAGWYW.
