QuoteMathijs We are living in the greatest era of guitar making, is my humble opinion. These days you can buy a $250 Chinese or Korean Strat and literally take it on a big stadium tour. It will play and sound fantastic. And when you go the high(er) end, the current Custom Shop Fender and Gibson guitars rival any vintage instrument. And with the Masterbuilt Series and the Murphy-aged instruments

QuoteBig Al The documentary looks really interesting. I almost wish someone would finance a documentary on Jimmy Page's 1963-1966 career as a session musician, which would be equally as fascinating. The recently released documentary 'Becoming Led Zeppelin' covers this period quite nicely (if not comprehensively) - and John Paul Jones was of course a major session presence duri

Surely the most unordinary thing about Keith is his constitution! Sure, he didn't necessarily abuse his body as much as the myths would have us believe but still...aside from that he's an ordinary person who's been living in extraordinary circumstances since his late teens.

I was there and thought it was great. Jody's drum sound was fantastic - one of the best live drum sounds I've heard (but too loud in the mix, as several audience members were eager to point out). I did think Chris Stamey was straining a bit with several of his vocal turns - admirable they attempted the original keys given how high the register is in many of those songs. They were

For those that have it on BBC iPlayer - Does anyone know the artist/ name of the song playing at 28:10 just after the live clip of Pain in my heart? Thanks I thought the documentary was a bit patchy and all over the place - expected more from Nick Broomfield. But still found it very moving and sad.

QuoteCaptain Teague QuoteRoll73 How can it be that 3 seconds after the tickets go on sale that Ticketmaster are saying no more tickets available?! It is probably because they transfer 1000's of tickets onto their own resale site. They are legalised ticket touts after all and it is time they were investigated.

QuoteSpud It's a better album than most give it credit for...but it's let down by the clumsy "brick wall" mastering . It's the one and only Stones album that I literally never put on. Not helped by the mastering for sure but (imo of course) the songs are just not up to par. I liked Rough Justice when it was released but I can happily live without it now. Really hope
