the only "re-thinking" of a song I recall is 19th Nervous Breakdown in 97? or was it 94? it did not last long though Before 1989 their own way to "re-think" their songs it was to have a live version of their catalogue (under my thumb and time is on my side in 1981, come to mind) They have never been and they never will be like Dylan for a whole lot of reasons beginning w

QuoteGerardHennessy Frankly the thought of a guest-packed album, where The Stones will look like a support act, or backing band, to a bunch of other people horrifies me. The practice is vastly over-used nowadays by so many acts. And it always suggests, at least to me, that the main performer feels they need a 'leg-up' from others to make the album more appealing. The Stones don't n

If they feel like and someone at Universal get some neurons and resources going, they might put up a party/concert a la Sticky 2015 to launch and promote the album with a bluray as a nice add on for us diehard fans - A photo shoot is enough to rekindle the drive to speculate

for what is worth you have my sympathy jahisnotdead "I personally believe writing, recording, and releasing new music is the difference between a vital creative band and a nostalgia act resting on their laurels" this is a sentence hard to not comprehend and agree with imo to summarize something like this as "the Stones are shit" is and overreaction and unfair In oc

no one can make a "great record" because he/she/it wants to it happens how and why? billions of variables (one of them are the "antennas" be them the kind of Keith's or the kind of, let's say, Bowie's, Mick's antenna are very biased by what's already on the cusp, imo, and at 80 is hard to be great at that) let's see what happens no expectation

About Doxa's interesting and controversial argument I think Kovach and Travellinman say 2 words that are connected and I can completely relate to: that is "touch" and pause from phone and the net the so called "return of the vinyl" is actually mostly a niche trend fueled by nostalgia and costly so but Witness is right imo when he connects the medium to the message,

Forum: Tell Me

a lot of speculation here, we don't know much facts in fact anyway to add some more: listening to Watt makes me wonder if the spread between Keith's adult "feel" and Mick's soft spot for "hard fm rock" (in the vein of his collaboration with the foo fighter guy) has reached a new level must not be easy to find a common ground

agree with that and you can see from the "cut down" personal versions of ABB or VL or BTB from us here, you won't find any consensus matter of taste versus peak of creativity. While the curve of the former has even gone up up up in these years as people listen to music through platforms that reward single songs and variety in a algorythm-controlled personal environment, the latt

"Does music get stale like 3 day old bread?" I think if you consider the span of decades in the life of seventy years old musicians, it can happen, easily A) when it is a mirror to a specific moment (if MJ had kept sweet neocon in the closet he would have to change the lyics now, wouldn't he?) if it is too much of a nod to a specific trend or a transient style in the industry, if

My opinion is that in terms of "art" or "relevance" to the contemporary music scene any trickling expectation on the new album is absurd A new Stones album in 2023 is relevant to a relatively small bunch of fans - and that doesn't need any explanation here - and as a commercial product. The latter we know because of Blue & Lonesome and the number of "copies&quo
