QuoteTurdontherun At least one has to say it indeed sounds very much like "scarred old slaver" when Keith (?) quite slowly recites the first lines in @#$%& Blues over slo'-mo' (?) backstage-footage. Been a while since I last saw the movie, so I can't seem to remember the exact circumstances. Near the end, perhaps? "Skydog slaver"...? A bit far-fetched, I'

dont think i've ever heard them do the extra verse in whip but i seem to remember mick throwing in that lyric about girls are just like street cars.. you know when it slows down and he ad-libs before the sax solo...sometimes i feel abandoned...!! please dont ask me what year or which show.

QuoteElmo Lewis Quote24FPS Okay. So what the hell sense does 'Skydog Slaver' mean? It's in Keith's book - Skydog was Duane Allman's nickname. Mick saw it at Mussle Shoals and liked the way it sounded. Per Jim Dickinson: Mick put the lyric in BS. Didn't I write this in the initial post? yes,you wrote it in the initial post,we got that. now what is being discussed

I remember Fankfurt 07 when Keith was absolutely nothing and did loose all tunes during Sympathy and Ronnie wouldn't fine the tune either Mick just saved the song in a way to the end which was marvellous. Perhaps he didn't change his dance style, does he haveto? Perhaps no truly he became older, like we a

as someone who had to scrape up tickets for nearly every band mentioned ,trust me,it wasnt even close- the stones and zeppelin.there was no way to accurately judge who could sell the most tickets because they simply sold out every show as soon as it went on sale and you got the feeling that no matter how many shows each band played every one would sell-out. you could always buy tickets of
