In the Stones book According to the Stones, or whatever its called. Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts approached Mick during the Steel Wheels tour about Ronnie becoming an offical member of the band and making the same money as the rest of the band, so that is when he became an "official member." And to say that Mick Taylor's solo efforts are better than anything the Stones have rel

I think Jagger's voice was beat up during the 75-76 tours because of the drugs, drinking and smoking he was doing during that time. If you have Jean-Marie's book about the 75 tour Mick talks a lot about all the Jack he was drinking in those days and he is pictured smoking a lot. His eyes also look pretty messed up in many pictures during those tours. On some parts of Midnight Rambler at

There is a version from the 72 tour which is close to soundboard. I have it on a CD called, Very Ancient, Thank You Kindly. I have to look to see which show it was played at. Too bad it was not included on Live Licks or Four Flicks because I thought it sounded good when I saw them at MSG.

Why would you think they would play it, nobody in the band is fond of this song and it has never been rehearsed. She Was Hot or Slave may make appearances next tour.

Jefferson Airplane Drummer Dies PETALUMA, Calif. - Spencer Dryden, the drummer for legendary rock band the Jefferson Airplane, has died of cancer. He was 66. Dryden, who died at his home Tuesday, retired from performing 10 years ago, although he hadn't been working much before that. "I'm gone," he told the San Francisco Chronicle last May. "I'm out of it.

Would be great if they included the songs Separetly and Travlin Man. Maybe in place of Can You Hear The Music. Also if they opened the album with a different more up beat song like Silver Train. All in all I agree it is a great album. And I also agree the artwork sucks.

liddas I agree, we need singles 71 to present. There are so many songs that have not been released on Cd like Through the Lonely Nights, Everything is Turning to Gold, I think I'm going mad and so on.

Guys don't listen to any of the bashing from Mathijs. Sounds like you guys are having fun playing the music you love. And considering you are recording these songs using old computers and are in different countries I think it sounds pretty good. Of coarse there are going to be some rough edges but what does one expect. I myself used to sing in a band and love playing or singing the Stones, e

I got the Hyde Park Dvd from a fellow Stones fan and it won't play on any DVD players but a friend of mine got it to work on his computer. The DVD players all say something about not being able to read the format. So my friend tried to use his DVD burning software to burn it onto a blank DVD which seemed to work but again the DVD players can't read it. Does anyone know if there is a way

They use a mandolin in the studio version which is really crucial to have in the song if it is played live. I guess Sway is the only song left from Sticky Fingers that is yet to be played live. Maybe next tour we will see them perform a whole album start to finish. They mentioned doing that last tour. Would be interesting.

I can't stand Oasis, they were horrible when I saw them open for the Black Crows and were booed off the stage and people were throwing things. They flipped off the crowd and walked off.

hot stuff, would love to hear those songs you mentioned in the set for the next tour. Maybe with the exception of Anybody Seen My Baby, that didn't work too well live. You Got The Silver was played during the No Security tour but wouldn't mind if they played it again and gave Happy a rest. I Got The Blues was also played during the same tour as well as back in 1970.

I have many friends who have done plenty of LSD and they are fine now. They hold jobs like accountants, lawyers and so on. However if you make this a drug you do everyday you will end up insane. Doesn't the line in Live with Me refer to LSD "I take tea at 3" I remember Mick or Keith saying that they would put a hit of acid in their tea in the late 60's.

Love them both, they both brought something to the Stones. Ronnie may have brought more to the actual group where as Taylor may have brought more to their sound. Both were needed to make the Stones what they are.
Forum: Tell Me

I feel like Ronnie could have been a bit depressed that the best songs he wrote Rod Stewart was going around playing as his own and since joining the Stones he did not have the chance to do different things since he was now a small part of the Jagger/Richards songwriting team. All of this could have led to him having more of a problem with drugs. I guess it also doesn't help hanging out with

I just picked up the new Faces box set, I have never really listened to them before and I must say that Ronnie's guitar playing is great, much better than the stuff he has done with the Stones. These seem to be his prime years as a guitarist and I think he probably gets knocked for his skills too much here. Perhaps if he were with the Stones during this time in his life people would have rea
