What Mick came up with on "Angie" is brilliant. His interpretation of Keith's song is astonishing to me. Packed with all the emotions one feels when breaking up, his performance uses all the vocal possibilites to communicate the heartbreak; top performance Mick! Rockandroll, Mops

Ben Waters "spilling the beans" and mentionning "Jerry Lee" style of piano playing on the new record, made me imagining the new record as a last Hurra of all the styles the Stones have touched in their career with a "Blue&Lonesome" back to the roots approach. I suspect there will be one over-produced song for potential commercial success in the middle of the ston

Silver Train is a blues song with a glam swagger.I like the way it swings ; it is difficult to replicate that groove and that makes it a special tune. Pure stones gem like Dance little Sister, Tallahassee Lassie etc... Rockandroll, Mops

The piano parts that Nicky plays on ANGIE are very touching. I remember when the Stones hitsong came out (I was a kid) listening to his piano arrangments and be emotionnally transported by it. It's an amazing song created by Keith but Nicky takes it to the next level of beautiful. My favorite Nicky's work with the Stones. Thank you Nicky for all your fabulous piano artistry. Rockandro

He joined the Stones too late to take part in and be a part of their major achievements but he joined the band soon enough to become a real member instead of just a sideman. Joining the band opened up a career for him that was/is way beyond his musical capabilities. That's why I call him a lucky man. Yeah, he's a

I was listening to the late Gene Vincent. I like the music he recorded at the end of his career; "sunshine", "500miles" "Amillion shadesof blue" etc... I looked up his Wikipedia's bio. It says that in 1968, in Germany, Gene tried to kill Gary Glitter with a gun. Crazy story!!! Rockandroll, Mops

Forum: Tell Me

I have noticed that a good intro very often means a good tV show series. For me , it started with the Sopranos, then The house of Cards, Westworld and it has culminated with the second season of the White Lotus. The intro of 2nd WL is the absolut best. I had to watch it each time and each time I enjoyed it, It really sets up the mood. The music with the melody and the languishing crescendo ma

I have loved the rolling stones a lot for a long time and still do. I always try to be rationnal when I get into a discussion where the stones become the target of criticism. I understand that the Stones are so "big" that people assume or believe things are not true about them sometimes with a positive angle and sometimes with a negative one. With the Alantic city fiasco, although I s

Thank you for the feedback. I went to the cancelled show (5hour drive + hotel) and had to go back on the 17th of November. Although I was deeply annoyed I did not doubt that Mick's illness was real. I don't believe the Stones would "play games" with their audience by cancelling a show without real justification. Rockandroll, Mops

I had a discussion on Christmas' eve with a person who was convinced that the Stones cancelled the Atlantic city show in 2006 because Mick wanted to rest his voice for the shows at the Beacon theater which shows were filmed by Scorcese for the movie Shine a light. I believe that Mick cancelled the show because he was sick. Do we know for sure the reason for the cancellation? Rockand
