Never noticed JL actually, personally, admitted he was a serial women beater which is what drove him into preaching exactly for the opposite. Makes him look better (obviously it was common knowledge that who he was, but I didn't know he openly talked about it) and some of his more "emotionally driven" female worshipers look rather bad (as a self redeemed woman beater might be seen

Saw the Stones in Barcelona during the Steel Wheels tour. Was only 16 at the time. Actually worked a whole year flipping burgers for that. Saw then in Buenos Aires in 2006: wasnt a special trip as I was there on family visit anyway. Saw them in HP#2 - cost me about 3500$ for the whole thing, including my 2 older boys. The worst ever hassle I had for a gig was actually The Who in Dublin

John Lennon is the wet dream of any "List of # best/worst ever &*%$#'s" freaks. An extremely assertive person: Lennon and his opinions were like Keith Moon to Drumming and Hendrix to guitar showmanship: all 3 were great in doing that - the best as far as it goes for giving a show. All 3 died in young age just as they were starting their way down so as sad as their premature tra

BTW - a few more thoughts on the JJF: 1. might be wrong but I think this is the version of the 13th! This might suggest that the official issue in Nov. might include "the opposite" blend of the 6th and 13th versions compared to the ITunes issue? might be a good surprise. 2. Great filming, artistically I mean, but I feel as if it is "too artistic"... something that would

QuoteIGTBA Yes. And I agree Keith's guitar intro is genius. Many times I've thought "how did he come up with that?". Hendrix did many amazing things with a guitar, but for me, nothing stays so fresh and beautiful to hear as Kieth's relatively simple intro - and his rhythm that follows. I've listened to probably over a hundred versions of GS and thousands of times

GS is one of those songs you learn to appreciate only after you cross a certain age. I remember times when I couldnt understand whats it all about: the admiration etc. but now days its seen by me as the masterpiece by the RS. Many of the RS "greatest songs" are superb but you do not get the sence of 'em being genious. GS is definetly the one that should appeal to any none stones f

The Who at 1969-70 were the ultimate greatest live act around. Not long after 1970 Keith Moon started weakening, something that effected their unique live act. I can put any of their fairly descent recorded concert of 1969-70 in the playlist and listen to it from start to end, enjoying any minute. No other band can get me to feel that. Not even the Stones with their 1972 STP gigs.

No one will ever know what turn in the Beatles history would have been taken had they tried to adopt their live acts to the standards of the post Monterey 1967 pop festival standards. Both JL and GH quite hated the live act thing (both quite rarely gave any live performances post 1966 - I think it was a tour + 1/4 of a tour for Harrison and just a handful of live shows, no tours at all, for Lenno
