I'm with munichhilton: literally sick to my stomach....otoh, to go a bit off the deep end being philosophical, I suppose we do not have any tape (or very little) of so many amazing musicians over the milennia, plus it is not possible to capture and preserve every single precious moment of reality anyway.

Thank you so much for posting these! I've never seen them. Man, Keith and Mick T are so smacked! Keith is emotionally flatlining, just numb. If you doubt it, look away from the visually arresting video - and just listen to his voice. Yet, he still manages to be respectful to interviewer who's posing incredibly banal questions. And he seems self-aware enough to know that he's ta

Thanks for the lead on the Beatles book, SwayStones. Sounds interesting, and would give an idea of what the Stones On Camera/Off Guard might be like. I read a couple of articles about him last night. He is, as someone above suggested, a collector. He is a massive Hendrix fan, as well as Stones and Beatles.

The book/DVD looks like a must-have. Thanks for posting about it. The following is a hilarious Amazon review, written by someone named Mark Hayward (is he the author of the upcoming Stones: On Camera, Off Guard?) of Greenfield's "Exile on Main St: A Season in Hell etc" To me, if this review serves as a peak into the author's style, I'm preordering! ------------

Quotewith sssoul Stanley Booth's excellent book The True Adventures of the Rolling Stones mentions this little conversation about Linda Keith, but not that Keith said he had seen her in 68. Thanks!

Thanks for commemts. The video gets 6,000 views/day. Mick T does look so happy, being so new to the Stones! he and Jimmy are clearly enjoying playing together--they're both shy, and probably happier jamming than making small talk.

hi DGA35, yup, I read the clipping, and I believe it's wrong. After all, this is the same paper that just published the sensationalism about Mick Taylor. Not exactly known for its scrupulous fact-checking department. So I don't believe that's Suki Potier. It's Linda Keith. Take a peek. Linda Keith Brian and Linda Suki Brian and Suki Brian and Suki Bri

This is my first solo post, so please consider being gentle with me After re-watching the 1969 MSG backstage clips, I thought what a shame you can't hear the one audible conversation -- between Keith and Hendrix. I looked everywhere (that I know how to look) online, but didn't find an existing transcript. If one already exists, great. But I listened to it many times, and tra

Quoteboogie69 I've always thought that his break-up with Linda Keith is what led him to eventually become the person/persona he is famous for. If what I have read is true, it was quite heart-breaking, and he went from being somewhat naive and innocent (please note I said SOMEWHAT) to being determined to never let such a strong, emotionally painful experience happen to him again.

hi...I'm a new poster. I love the Track Talk threads and want to respect the fact that someone may already have started a thread on the track I'm interested in ("Soul Survivor" ).

I appreciate the background, and wasn't arguing, Addicted. Just saying the Stones/IT ratio didn't seem too outta control at this time, and I appreciate that. A lot.

I see it as: at the time the song was written, people were prone to spouting inane slogans like "Life is for living!"
