I didn't even know there were concerts of any kind there until a year or so ago when I saw the Stones "Texas Rangers: Live At The Cotton Bowl" bootleg. I still don't know why the Stones played there instead of the Starplex next door (which was specifically built for concerts) as it was a year old at that time. I guess the Stones insisted on playing in a stadium. I had n

I'm really digging Heartbreaker. I've always really liked the song, and this is the first live version I've heard. There seem to be a few errors, but it's still great. Taylor's guitar work is really cool, but not always as prominent in the mix as it should be, but it is audible enough to make me love it.

Syd Barrett stayed retired after his 70's solo work. Although his mental health was more a factor in that as opposed to some rational decision to do so. I think the last time he did anything was a 1974 studio session that only lasted a few days and didn't produce anything. After that I don't think he did anything music related (except for crashing the "Wish You Were Here&qu

Quotetheimposter Of course he has since passed away, but Johnny Ramone stayed firmly retired after the Ramones disbanded in 1996 up until his death in 2004. I don't know if he was completely retired.

Don't feel bad for me, I first saw them in '97 and loved it to death, regardless of what may have been in the past. Even if I'd seen them for the first time in '78 (would have been difficult as I was still 2 years away from birth) there would be somebody sorry for me as I hadn't seen them in '72, and for the person who saw them in '72 somebody feeling sorry for

I'd love for them to get back together. Back in the late 90's I saw John Fogerty, then a few weeks later I saw "Creedence Clearwater Revisited", which was basically Doug and Stu with some other musicians (one was Elliot Easton from The Cars on guitar, I forget who was singing) playing CCR songs.

Well I had a single disc copy, and had been looking to possibly buy an imported version for the Cavett/Australia disc. It was going to run me about $25. Also I have yet to purchase Stones In Exile, because it's been available streaming on Netflix and I just never got around to getting a physical copy. So that would have run me another $10-$12. All together that's around $32, which i

She didn't so much reject a "big record deal" as she rejected a development deal with a big label. These contracts are not very lucrative, but in lieu of big bucks the record company invests money in promotion, lessons (singing, playing or whatever may be needed), obtaining a backing band, setting up gigs, and all the other things needed to take a nobody to being a star.

I don't know about John saying that, but I've heard in several different rock docs various talking heads saying that The Stones were the band the Beatles wished they could be, especially in the early days.

Personally I'll probably buy all of these, even if somebody offers me a free copy, just out of hopes that "voting with my wallet" encourages The Stones to release more.
