Quote Philly 2 last year. After the show, my wife (she's seen the Stones about 15 times since 81) asks "who was that guitarist . . . he stole the show." (referring to CYHMK, which has disappeared). you are right, we cannot have that. What do you mean "disappeared"? A quick YouTube check and it's right there. I too am tremendously disappointed as that show was

As this is my favorite show of the 25 I've seen, I look forward to hearing the soundboard and hopefully a great quality video. I cannot fathom DCBA's take on the 94 tour, however. I love it. They found, for me, the sweet pocket of looseness and discipline. Imaginative setlists, great enthusiasm, and perfect staging, lighting and wardrobe (save the SFMan skirt!). Only No Security rivals

The manager of Led Zeppelin, Peter Grant, was unaware of what was about to transpire until Grant received word that over 500 singles had been pressed and had been shipped to Manchester for distribution.

Pretty interesting point. I think Hot Stuff, Crazy Mama and Hey Negrita are straight lip synchs, but all the rest are live vocals over the backing track. IORR, being a totally different take without live vocal.

This line of thinking has all the desperation and insecurity of someone who was recently challenged by someone or something which revealed a deep lack of conviction in their own beliefs and likes, and consequently spun 180 deg. around to the most intellectual form of art they could handle (the pretentious bit about classical).

Quoterob51 So much of Ya Ya's was overdubbed. All my childhood I believed this was how good the Stones actually were. Than I woke up and realized they'd never sounded that good in their lives and I had to learn to deal with that. Overdubbing most of their best ever live album really disappointed me and I never looked at them the same way again. Even the Rolling Stones were fake. I g

I'm not surprised by how many people mistakenly believe all kinds of crappola, but I didn't say anything like that.

Nobody, at least not me, is making any such claims. KR is the one doing all the talking in the story I quoted. GP probably did use it as an excuse to hang. What does that have to do with KR's statement (which is entirely relevant to the discussion here)?

Actually, I'd say that they were of vital importance to keeping the Stones rolling (sorry, it was there; I had to take it). It laid out the template for all future shows and renewed MJ's interest in working with Keith after, what I suspect, coming very close to saying fuk it altogether. Check this interview from 1987. It really is interesting to read where his mind was at the time.

Quotewith sssoul QuoteLady Jayne Good to see photos of Keith in particular looking lively and well after a very long flight back in Kent Funny that they haven't caught on that the chappie in the cap at the Perth airport was a red herring, not the Mick at all. Are we sure about that? I get the impression he flew with them to Abu Dhabi, then onto LA by himself.
