Quoteskipstone I've always loved Can You Hear The Music. Hell, I've always loved Goats Head Soup. It really is a fantastic album. Hazy - yes indeed - I like it. What were they gonna do, make another Exile? It got even hazier with IORR, which is hilarious. As technology improved their albums, overall, started sounding worse! Compare IORR to Sticky Fingers - HUGE difference. But I like

Little T & A is an @#$%&, and he only posted that to needle me, because he was trolling me due to disagreement in another thread. So @#$%& off.

Quotewhat about classical? a fine wine? I usually don't drink alcohol when I'm playing classical, otherwise i f**k up too much. Quoteoh, and what about tribal african tunes? LSD.

Quote He drinks a lot - does that count? Something I've noticed over the years - weed can enhance your playing rock & jazz, but to get into the spirit of playing old blues and country tunes, booze definitely helps.

Jeez, guys, Woody ain't THAT bad. The solo's just the friggin' pentatonic minor with some Dorian mode licks mixed in, it ain't like its an Allen Holdsworth of John McLaughlin solo or somethin'... You guys talk like Woody can't play at all. Granted his style is quite different from Mick T's, but c'mon IT'S ONLY ROCK N' ROLL!!!! If you're go

Quotewood played taylor note-for-note? ha. there's at least major probs with that assertion.... Well I did qualify that statement by saying "just about". I prefer Mick T's playing, but Woody's no slouch. I noticed in Shine A Light, that on the older songs Woody was often playing Keef's parts, and Keef was sort of playing Brian's (or more often the case,

Quotehell of a lot of Boones Farm has been sold, and I'll bet it was a lot of wine geeks' first wine (like me) Yeah, I probably haven't drank the stuff in 20 years now. I rarely drink wine these days (gives me bad heartburn, and I prefer beer & J.D.) - but sometimes I'll drink some when I'm enjoying the company of the fairer sex. And they always turn up their nose

QuoteI'm not sure I could put Jerry Garcia into the great soloists category...and only mind-blowing when the listener is stoned. I saw him twice with his own band in 1978 and 1979, and twice with the Dead in the early 80s. He did zero for me, but the other 15,000 people that were tripping thought he was god. He did solo a lot, but it went nowhere and was usually struggling to stay in tune.

Quotemmmmmm champagne. CHAMPAGNE AND REEFER! ...I love that the Stones covered that old Muddy song in "Shine A Light" ...and that they got Buddy "Mother f***ing" Guy to play with them on it. I went through a cheap-wino period in the early 80s. My apartment was at the very back of a large complex, and we were fairly secluded (our building was mostly deserted even

I caught her performance on David Letterman last week (at least, I think it was last week). She's still got it. She's got a great band with her too, very interesting and tasteful group of musicians, with their own sound.

Nicky Hopkins should have been in there a long time ago, in the "sidemen" category - for his piano playing with the Stones, the Who, the Kinks, the Jeff Beck Group, the Beatles, & Zeppelin!!! (to name just a few bands who's recordings he played on).

Like Doubledoor and others who have posted, the Stones definitely turned me on to other, mostly older stuff as well. Mainly the Blues...I started with Muddy & Howlin' Wolf, Sonny Boy Williamson (Rice Miller), etc., and branched out to the other Chess musicians as well over the years. Eventually I got into other blues, such as the Cobra recordings of Buddy Guy, Magic Sam, and Otis Rus

While not my favorite Stones' live album by any means, I still love this album. One of the things I find the most striking about it is Bill & Brian's backup singing...absolutely stellar harmonies, and their singing has a weirdly 'psychedelic' energy to it...I don't know quite else how to describe it. I'll sometimes listen to this disc loud with headphones just
