I often wondered if the Keith 1971 RS interview was that he was trying to go one better than the December 1970 Lennon interview (Lennon Remembers). I think both still stand up to scrutiny, certainly compared to the 'PR' interviews we've had for the last 20 years or so. Of course, with both John Lennon and Keith you have to have a large grain of salt handy.

The Stones really need a Mark Lewishon. I cannot see that happening whilst the group are still 'active', however. Also, some degree of official cooperation from the band members and/or heirs would be helpful (though not essential).

Trying to speculate which direction musically Brian might have taken is nigh on impossible. I can think of at least 5 possibles: 1. Moved more into scoring films as he did for A degree of Murder 2. Returned to his Blues roots 3. Be involved in CCR type music (he expressed his liking for such music) 4. Developed his interest in World music...ie further afield than Morocco 5. Produced a Tubul

Unlike some of the Dylan Copyright issues we haven't had multiple recordings /takes of the same composition. So, presumably there are still lots of alternative takes out there, in ABKCO vaults, Stones vaults, and in private hands. Those in the latter category are now in the Public Domain? And could be released on the iorr label?

Yes, in hindsight the Visa story was a convenient excuse. Mick was busted for the second time in May 1969 and around 9 months later was found guilty of possession ( I cannot remember the exact details. This didn't seem to impact on his ability to tour late 1969 and then do some recording in the States in 1970.

Presumably any recordings (live or studio) not as yet released, either officially or via 'the dump' have now fallen into Public Domain classification. And can therefore be released by some entrepreneur (who has a good legal backup). Perhaps via a streaming service.

Despite what Doxa says (earlier) I cannot imagine a scenario where The Stones will 'get their catalogue back' from ABCKO. For the original Decca recordings it will be Public Domain time by 2040, unless the laws change in the meantime.By then, who knows what the structure of the music (record buying) industry will be?

Lennon had a great voice, just very natural. Lots of emotion. It was often overlooked, partly because of everything else that was going on. Mr Soul, Ringo used to call him. Oddly, for an egomaniac he never rated his vocal skills. Mind you it is probably best not to take all he said too literally!

I always think of Lulu (UK Singer) and Twiggy together. Both emerged in the 1960s. Still look great now; never indulged in the drink and drugs scene; didn't get ripped off financially; didn't go into tax exile despite being high earners; have reinvented themselves successfully. Cilla Black was another. Could teach some of their Male contemporaries a thing or two!
