It could be my (poor boys) sound system, but Hot Stuff sounds great to me. Can hear every single note by every single instrument. Lots of space. Maybe it's not everybody's taste, but it's mighty mighty fine by my standards.

Bill had sudden memories of Mick's interaction with Ronnie at SNL. Might have been the moment he decided to call it a day.

Yeah, great. I love the version at Olympia Paris that ended up on Stripped also very much. It's one of those songs that make me happy every time. Stu is the driving force on the studio album, and in Wembley as well.

QuoteU2Stonesfan I look forward to I believe the first or second official live version of Crazy Mama? I guess so. It was played a couple of times during the No Security Tour, wasn't it?

Ordered mine at platenzaak.nl. Really excited about this release. Curious what Clearmountain did with the mix. The bootlegs were not very hi-fi.

Talking about M.C. Escher: Mick once wrote a letter to this famous artist, to inform about the possibilities to use his art for an album cover. Mr. Escher send a clear reply and was not too amused about Mr. Jaggers use of his first name:

It's against my (football related) convictions to enter the Johan Cruijff Arena. I've made an exception in 2017 for the Stones. Sound was not as bad as I feared, but I promised myself it was a once in a lifetime experience. Good luck to those who will go, and I am sure you'll have fun. Me, I'll enjoy reliving great concerts from the past.

I have loved the Hampton show for as long as I know, but listening to Wembley on the Tattoo You Super Deluxe, I am especially pleased with the return of Bobby on sax. Ernie Watts (Hampton) might technically be a better player (not sure), but Bobby has a great way to add not too much to a song. Less is better, most of the times.

Quotegeorgie48 Yes it was! I was at the last concert of that tour, October 9 in Amsterdam. There is some footage of that concert too. Looking back at these clips, many things come back from memory. I lived in Utrecht and the Stones were actually staying at the Holiday Inn in that city. Not many knew, but somehow I did. I still see myself on my bycicle heading for that hotel and looking up to

I have fond memories of George and The Golden Earring. Actually, they were the first (and so far last, due to Covid-19) band I saw perform live. Have seen them a couple of times over the years and like the Stones they adopted a lot of styles and musical trends and made those their own. George also did some nice side projects. I have seen him playing (in Dutch, or should I say "Haags&q

According to NZentgraf's site, at those sessions in early october 1974 Keith, Stu and Jimmy were accompanied by Rick Grech on bass and Bruce Rowland on drums.

QuoteDeltics Gram Parsons talks about the first time he heard "Wild Horses" in an interview from March, 1973. "The first time I heard it was the night after Altamont". I think Jo Nesbo should put a footnote in his book The Devil's star after listening to this clip. (In the book the hero says something about Mick and Keith stealing Wild Horses from Gram).

And btw- upon close examination at 7:40 going forward, there is NO WAY that is some kind of "old age mistake thing" which so many people were ranting about with Keith. It is absolutely a prank/funny on Mick. At 7:40 they are being chummy and then Mick goes out... and BOOM!!! Keith messes with him. Th

I was surprised Ruby Tuesday ranked this high, even higher than Live with me. I guess the Steel Wheels/Urban Jungle tour had a huge influence.
