Quoteglimmertwin1 this is overall an upgrade to the boot !!! With descend mastering (not perfect) / the boot has still a surprisingly good mix. Now I have them both I've got the Swinging Pig 3 CD box set - and I have to say the new release is a big disappointment in comparison (imho). That bootleg has been fine for me for the last 30 years - I'm sure it will do me for another

QuoteTravelinMan Mick & I is an album by Japanese jazz/fusion/pop artist named Miyuki featuring Taylor. My dad has the album and I burned it from him. It's about 20 years old I think. Lots of really cool instrumentals and great guitar by Taylor. He receives writing credit on Amber Blue. Unfortunately, I don't know where you can buy it. Thanks for the info - and to you OpenG. I

One of the highlights of Live Aid (as far as performances go) was Mick pulling off Tina's skirt in IORR - a classic 'spontaneous' moment between two of the best front men/women ever. Although for some reason there's no trace of it on You Tube anymore. Anyone know why? EDIT: Actually just found it here https://www.facebook.com/watch/

At my first Stones concert age 16 (Urban Jungle Wembley - July 1990) I arrived super early to secure a front of stage spot. Feeling a little tired after several hours of perching on the concrete steps - at some point during the early afternoon you could here sound checks going on (the usual snare drum being played over and over by a tech etc.) And suddenly the riff from How I Wish blasted out.

Quotebitusa2012 QuoteRoll73 Quotetommycharles But what the hell was Keith playing in the intro? The ADTL intro is not hard... That's actually the closest I've heard him replicate the Exile version. Not that I've heard EVERY live version but of those I have heard he usually plays the riff from the end of the chorus as the intro (if that makes any sense!?) Wow, I must listen to

QuoteDandelionPowderman QuoteMelBelli Highly improbable. It might be overtones/guitar harmonics he's hearing that leads him to believe it's a 12 string setup with the light e-strings. It is actually in Nashville Tuning (as was Wild Horses) - which is just replacing the standard E A D G strings with those an octave higher (so - yes, like a 12 string without the low EADG strings).

Quotestanlove The word brilliant was really overused in this thread as expected. The only rock artist I consider a genius is Bob Dylan. Rock doesn't require genius. Agree with that - although I would also agree with Rocky Dijon that Brian Wilson was/ is a genius (even though he did produce some questionable stuff as well - as has Dylan of course!), but his talent for arranging, produc

QuoteFather Ted Karma can wait. I've encountered aggressive, pushy drunks at shows and you deal with them by pushing back. Last one at U2 got thrown about 20 feet when he kept trying to knock my wife down. I'd have no problems telling this family to "f*ck off or I'll knock your teeth out". Yes - agree 100%.

o2 London (2nd show) After the Bigger Bang tour I had serious doubts that they'd be able to do it again. Keith really seemed like a dead weight for much of the 2 shows I saw in London. I remember feeling quite deflated afterwards. So when they took to the stage at the o2 I was literally holding my breath - and was so relieved to see Keith visibly concentrating on what he was playing -

QuoteJavadave Does Mr. Rose interrogate Mick about misogyny in the Stones lyrics? Given the hasty demise of his career after he got Metood, that would be some wicked irony. Don't think misogyny came up funnily enough.

Really sorry if this has been posted before - and it is over 15 years old(!) but this is hands down the best interview I've seen with Mick (and he's obviously done a fair few).
