Before they messed around with it in 2010 (feels like the other day, but shit we're in 2016 now), do we have the original PMS? I'm most interested to hear Mick's vocals from 71, and what he would have done on this track.

Hello friends! I haven't been on in a while. Today I have a question. 100 Years Ago is one of my favourite Stones songs, but is one that I've always thought never lived up to its potential. The first half is good, SO GOOD, but once it comes to the sped-up jam to the end I think it loses its whimsical freshness and becomes what is actually pretty alright for an outro, but for another

How many copies of Sticky Fingers were printed wiht the physical zipper? I picked up a copy the other day in a small antique store in Cape Town the other day, for R150 (~10 pounds), and judging by appearances it seems to come straight from 1971.

If anyone has the inclination, I think they should read this: Who Was Greater: Hendrix or Beethoven? It's a great read, and I think even though the article references Hendrix, the same could apply to the Stones. Although quite obviously lesser musicians, the enjoyment that an audience can have from them is definitely not lesser. Ol' Ludwig Van also played riffs, like the 5th's m

Quotecrumbling_mice Me too Tele, my God how I have fiddled over the years and yet - nothing of earth shattering importance ever comes out...usually I end up playing something that is so close to something already recorded and usually by the Stones!!! Frustrating. I do the exact same thing! I once 'thought up' a riff that sounded wonderful to me, and only a couple of hours later did I

Thank you very much! I've got a better feel for the thing now. The more I read about it the more it sort of 'clicks' in my mind. Do you think Keith played this knowing he was using the Mixolydian scale? It seems more to me as if he was playing around with the D, G and A shapes with capo on the 3rd fret, and struck upon this beautiful passage.
Forum: Tell Me

I've been trying to get my head around the concept of modes, and now while I understand the theoretical side to it and how they are constructed, I'm still a bit confused as to where and how the scales are used. So I stumbled across a page on Wikipedia, where it says Let It Loose uses this scale. Can anyone help me out and tell me in what way, and where in the song? Thanks. I guess

I've never heard Bo Diddley's Mona. I actually thought Mick and Keith wrote the song, just using Bo Diddley's Bo Diddley rythms, ye know.
Forum: Tell Me

What guitar pedal is that in Mona? I'm assuming it's Brian Jones playing. A similar effect is in Please Go Home.

It isn't the stones recording then. What is Brian playing on the opening riff, then - a tremolo out of control? It's probably Keith playing the motif with Brian supplying chuck berry rhythm beneath.

Thank you! I think that's what's missing from a large chunk of today's music. It's these slightly off-beat instruments that deviate from the norm of guitar/bass/drums.
Forum: Tell Me

In the studio recordings of both Jumpin' Jack Flash and Street Fighting Man, there's a strange sounding instrument in the outros. It's round about 2:50 in JJF, and 2:30 in SFM. Is it an organ of some sort? And just another question while I'm at it, that solo from Keith in Sympathy for the Devil, to get that high pitched sound you'd use an octave pedal, right?

I always found Neil Young's vibrato on After the Gold Rush a bit forced, whereas Mick pretty much always sounded natural.
