Quotebv Stones PR are top class, like the rest of their management. They do want to own the moment of an announcement. A new tour - with a new album to be backed - need at least one week of focus on its own, first teasers, then a date of announcing the tour, then pre-sales, then actual sales. It is a time frame of 1-2 weeks where they are expecting a LOT of focus. Just take a look at the calen

QuoteHis Majesty I think some of those are not people who went. It seems nothing was recorded. One of the people who did jam, their name escapes me at moment, said the jams were aimless with Brian sporadically coming and going from the music room, playing a bit of soprano saxophone, a bit of organ, but he wouldn't play guitar. Mayall visited, but more as a friend. He attempted to pla

Thanks for the Time Is On My Side clarification, those scallywags duped me (as Grand Moff Tarkin would say, "They lied!") I just quickly compared the Satisfactions and at first listen they sound different (Jagger's vocal has some nuanced differences and the bass seems to come in differently, tho that might be that I have trouble hearing it at all on my version) Anyway, I don&

So you have me revisiting my Chess recordings , and after re-reading this entire thread (to make sure you hadn’t already answered this!) I have some doubts as to what I thought previously: you mention, as does Wikipedia, that the other version of Time Is On My Side was done in London (Regent) yet my copy of Chess recordings have them recording a version of Time during the June 11 ‘64 Chess sessi

My favorite thread, one I actually read thru (and tour info threads of course!) Thx for sharing all this.. One question, I think I misunderstood you mentioning few or no photos of Brian at Chess sessions? During my visits there I seem to recall him in a number of photos on display, as well as a boot vinyl of those sessions I have with photos of him included.. Am I mixing up recording dates/

Quoteash QuoteMrEcho Quotewiredallnight Why should I buy vinyl records in mono? It's like buying a VHS cassette in black & white. Stereo for consumer use was first introduced in 1958. In the late 1950s and in the 1960s most LPs were usually released in separate mono and stereo versions. Singles were always in mono up until the late 1960s. In the late 1950s stereo LPs had a market share

Just finished and quite enjoyed. I kept hearing there wasn't much new info on Mr. Watts, but for me it was a revelation in a new way: definitely revealed Charlie in a light outside of the Stones.. When it did speak of the side of Charlie we've all heard about it was occasionally repetitive as everyone told similar stories, but still I found it a great read. I especially loved reading ab
