Here is an interesting dive into Charlie's work on Beggar's Banquet. It's cited in the DEEP dive about Charlie's tempo analysis in another post, but thought it deserved it's own post. I tried to get the PDF download, but it wouldn't work for me. If anyone else has success with it, it would be easier to read. The Drummer's So Shattered

QuoteTestify Come on...I always thought those auditions were just a ploy by Mick to get some guitar variety on their album, that way it was free. Ronnie had been with them since the 75 tour....it was the most natural choice. Mick is really a genius for getting free contributions. The auditions and Mandel\Perkins contributions were all recorded before the 75 tour, right?

Absolutely fantastic tune. Tragic that it didn't get the attention it deserved, ie. a place in the live repertoire. Coulda been a contenda.

Quotemicha063 Yes, his guitar playing on Hackney Diamonds is fantastic. His playing has grown. Since 2012 he has become a very important part of the sound of the Stones. Like he used to be from 1975 to 1982. And I think it's also truth, that he is one reason for the fact, the Stones are still rolling. I'm glad to se him growing because I always liked his music a lot and I have sympa

I'm trying to find an app that measures tempo and my initial efforts have been disappointing. They can't pickup live tunes. Specifically, I'm wondering about GOMCloud from last night. I thought they really nailed it but I've seen others say it was too slow. I thought with Steve Jordan, he would just lock in the original bpm and go with it, but I'm not musical enough to re

Dear Bjornulf, Thank you for the work you've done and the life you've led. IORR has been a part a centerpiece of my world since the mid 80's.

Love this kind of musical treasure map search! I had a bit of difficulty with Dreamy Skies because of the Short and Curlies echoes. Really like the tune overall though, and it has become less distracting the more I listen to it.
