It's the first album where the Stones take full advantage of the LP format (save Going Home from Aftermath) and try something different than composing a bunch of songs in the single 45rpm format. From this point of view the idea is closer to the Who's "rock opera" than to any other SM's contemporaries (including Sgt Pepper). I find that STSAT (both parts, esp. the

I'll stop going to see Stones live the day I'll see lighters at a slow number ... Again, slow numbers live are good to go and get a beer and go to the toilet. That is why you need "to slow down" at the 5th or 6th number and every 5/6 songs thereafter! C

It is not a matter of being rude or guessing. MJ is not taller than 1.70, and that is a fact. That does not mean he is "small". Anyway it depends from what your point of view is. Avarage Italians are not that tall. I am 1.83 and could be considered a "tall" Italian. My girlfriend, who is Polish and is 1.78, believes I am not tall! C p.s. I sky alot, and I can a

My personal fav is pizza margherita style, but with "stracchino" instead of mozzarella + olives. This is the way it is often prepared in liguria.

Gazza: as far as I can remember (but I was only 14 in 1982) the stones were never seen as a public threat or something here in Italy. It is true that in 1990 Rivera and some other deputees filed a petition with the parliament asking that the stones and other bands who somehow "celebrated" the use of drugs (Lou Reed also had problems) were not allowed to play concerts in Italy becau

Ach, Koen, Maestro! It makes sense! As soon as I arrive at home I'll try to figure out how it works. BTW, Bruno you are right, the solo is during the E B A E section! C p.s. The studio version is one of my top 10s of all times.

Aw, s... I guess we will have to wait for the Maestro's now! I have to admit I truly don't have a clue of the notes I play when I take the lead (which does not happen very often, by the way) Anyway the solo is during the Am G C F section, therefore G minor should fit in quite well. C

JKF Woody The studio version is E B A E + C#m B E A (I mixed up the E and A, sorry, I don't have a guitar here in the office!!!) Therefore if LL is in C (and I am sure it is) the correct progression should be C G F C - Am G C F As far as the solo is concerned, the studio version features a KILLER Wood performance, in the fashion of the solo on shattered.

The official excuse was that Jagger had some problems with his voice (since other dates were cancelled for the same reason, I believe this was the truth). It was also said that ticket sales were doing bad, and that was the true reason why the concert which in the first place was only posponed was then cancelled. C
