Bruce played an active role as himself on recent episode of "Curb Your Enthusiasm". Hilarious.

Oh No! She was a total class act. Her excellent posts have been missed for some time. I can only hope her sad passing was as gentle as her comments were. RIP with sssoul.... Phil

Hear, Hear! The Ronnie Lane documentary "The Passing Show" is simply fantastic and a must have/viewing for fans old and new.

Superb cover. Outstanding groove. Anyone know when it was recorded?

I thought then, and still think they should have given Ronnie a turn at the mike to do a number from his 2 solo albums, but hey it's 48 years later and this still hasn't happened.

QuoteTaylor1 Maybe because the1975 set was so long that Mick needed a breather and because Billy was a pretty big star in his own right.Didn’t the whole band minus Mick back him up on one of the 2songs. Yes, The Rolling Stones were Billy's backing band for two songs.

QuoteSpud Wouldn't have a clue to be honest. I can't even remember when I bought the German Electrola pressing but early 80s would be about right I think. I have an excellent sounding German red label Teldec Let It Bleed which is my vinyl go to copy. US Bell Sounds pressings were what I was used to for decades, but that Teldec Bleed is superb.

Are there copyright issues pertaining to this documentary that would keep it from being re-released and put on DVD or Blu-ray? I still have this on VHS from back when it was released. As many have commented, I would agree 25/5 was/is the finest documentary on the Stones to date. My youngest daughters were 3-4 years old when it was released and they watched it over and over again. Great video baby

Eternal gratitude BV for all that you built here supporting fans of THE ROLLING STONES. This forum is world class and has been part of my life for many years. I wish you well in all pursuits moving forward. Thank you so very much!

Wonderful. Even the grainy footage does not detract from the power of where the band was at, and where the music was heading as this tour progressed. While I thought they kicked ass in Chicago where I saw them in 69, as Mick said" we really didn't get it on until Detroit". Please release more music/video from this tour, while we are still alive to enjoy it!!

Great show! MJ's song fits in beautifully.

A belated Happy Birthday to Keith. 80, who would have thought? For myself, I am somehow reassured that Keith is still with us, and appears to still be quite happy here on the planet. Fitting that Keith's autobiography is called "Life". He has certainly lived it.

QuoteNashvilleBlues Quotefilstan Does anyone have a clue about what ticket prices will be yet? After fees, pit for Houston and Chicago were around $625 each. Closest seats were same price as pit. Rear GA $192. Other seats $300. Cheapest were $92-$123 after fees. All I listed were standard tickets (no VIP, extra packages, etc.), after fees. Thanks so much for the input!

Heartfelt rendition of this folk blues classic. It’s as pure as it can get from these old rockin blues musicians. Muddy would be proud I’m sure. Could this number have been in the Blue and Lonesome track list, yes. I think this song was honestly recorded. Mick and Keith as well as producer Watts did this song serious justice. A moving closer to what is a pretty damn good album, and I’ve only list

My black vinyl copy arrived yesterday. Flat on TT and the vinyl plays dead quiet. Really good sound quality imo too. I have a green vinyl copy that has not arrived yet here in the Chicago area.

I saw the Barbs play the International Amphitheater in Chicago. I expected a sloppy Faces/Stones groove and thats what we got. Ronnie solo material, some Stones tunes and a few wonderful surprises via Keith at the piano. What a great band! Sure, were those guys coked up and drinking, yes indeed. Was it fun for Stones and Faces fans, yes again! No mini riot at the Chicago gig. It was an all star b

All in all, I thought the introduction of Angry to the public was well done. I thought Fallon did a pretty good job. He is a huge fan, and he knows his job. The interviews were a fun give and take. The video took painfully long to get started, but the video was something one would expect from those guys. The song Angry is catchy and certainly sounded like the Rolling Stones and no one else. Yes,

This is sad news indeed. It was a privilege to spend time with Jimmy when he was living in Chicago for awhile many years ago. He was always kind to me and a fun guy to be around. May he rest in peace…

The Japanese UIGY-9081 SHM SACD is as close to an early vinyl Artisan pressing as there is. They are aren’t cheap, but played on a decent sound system it’s a wowser sound experience. I have multiple quality vinyl copies and cd’s. I have no interest in anything else that shows up. My ears are happy with what I have. I still like early pressing US Monarch and Presswell vinyl.

Man, these guys are filing out at an alarming rate. A massive influence within the music community back in the late 60’s early 70’s. Robbie was a terrific guitarist and songwriter. A sad day for fans of The Band, Dylan. RIP Robbie and thanks for the music!

Timely post. Bloomer was an amazing guitar talent that sadly diminished along with his life when heroin became a problem. There is a documentary about the Butter Band that I believe premiers tonight on streaming services. Certainly on YouTube. Here is the article with more information. The film is called Born In Chicago.
