video: Around 2013 when the rumors of new music from The Stones began I started this song "Heal My Soul" with a fantasy they'd record it. It is very simple sort of a thank you from one Glimmer to the other. My band Lex Grey and The Urban Pioneers eventually recorded it, switched some gender stuff and released it on our current album. The song is charting for radio a bit, we are

As far as videos... Mick Taylor's first CYHMK I think in Anaheim? In person it was the first Philly show PIB. I don't know why really but the outro was spectacular, I had great seats it just was special for me. Really the whole 4 year period was great, every show I attended I had to pinch myself, seeing Bobby Keys play off into the sunset, really something I will always appreciate, a

Yup Bill is one of the greats. I can't understand any of this belittling stuff. He is an essential element in their golden era. Live he dictated the show and led the guitar section. Those who are critical of him or Mick Taylor drank the Koolaide.

Well this was known a bit back, the speculation that he'll join the tour is conjecture. Eric has had a bout with some health problems but perhaps "joining" The Stones would be less stressful. If you're going to add a 3rd guitarist within the same pedigree as the band it's a short list. Clapton will change the sound for sure, we've been thrilled to endure what'

Regarding Bill. The reality of the mortality of someone you love changes people's perspective. The Stones are family people, I believe his last appearance left everyone hollow.

Now we flash forward to 2016... Would not a new Stones "blues" album benefit from an actual lead guitarist who was featured in The Bluesbreakers? I anticipate the new album greatly but if the showcase solos are played by Gary Clarke, John Mayer or Eric Clapton instead of MT, it is the fan of classic Stones that loses out. It would have been.nice if they had settled this in 2012 inste

If indeed he took a full payout when he left then that chunk of money really had to sting the band at the time when they were struggling personally. There is probably some resentment since they had to pay out when they were vulnerable.

The Stones were uncool about the opening and not inviting Taylor but his reaction is way over board. I can't believe his posts are still up.
