Quotenoughties Maybe not so cool, but an alternative and highly personal top 5: 1)New Routes (1970) – Lulu 2)Where Am I Going? (1967) – Dusty Springfield 3)Surround Yourself With Cilla (1969) – Cilla Black 4)Nancy & Lee Again (1971) – Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazlewood 5)Fancy (1967) – Bobbie Gentry Actually great picks.

QuoteTheGreek QuoteMathijs QuoteTheGreek A point that we must remember is that Daryl Jones does not have a free reign to interpret the bass lines as he does answer and report to a supervisor ( Mick )who tells him what is expected of him in how he holds up the bottom . The Stones are not an improvisational outfit . That's actually not true. Jones has said in an interview that he is totally

QuoteLeonidP QuoteThe Sicilian The Foo Fighters calling off the rest of the upcoming tour says a lot. It also makes the Stones look bad for not taking time off for Charlie and in the middle of a COVID outbreak. It really makes them look greedy. Moronic premise ... for one, FF were already in the middle of a tour, and have not said they will never tour again. And two, each person, band, etc.

QuoteTaylor1 Quote24FPS Really. Bill said it best at the time about how you can't go home again. It didn't work then, it would be worse now. Mick, most likely, let him play on two songs he wasn't particularly known for, instead of something like Miss You, or Start Me Up. Bill tried, it didn't work. As for Mick Taylor, be honest, did his playing really enhance the tour? His

QuoteBig Al Quotecrholmstrom Well at least in the short term, Dave can play drums if they want to honor their contracts. They have an abundance of guitar players in that band. Will be interesting to see how it plays out. Dave drumming would be appropriate, I think. However, the 'singing drummer', never looks quite 'right' to me. There's something almost comical about
