In the no "Wotcha" My My Yeah Yeah studio version clip, Brian is playing the first part of the main riff up the neck (to cover the ringing high part) and then he switches to the first position to cover the lower part of the main riff. Keith seems to be staying up the neck for the whole riff and seems to be playing the high part of the main riff.

Yes, so do I.

Brian's playing is a bit of a mystery to me. He doesn't seem to play a straight blues solo without slide yet I think he was quite capable of doing it. There are touches of a solo in that live "Get Off My Cloud" riff. It seems like there might have been a Angus/Malcolm sort of arrangement between Keith and Brian with Keith taking all the solos except for the slide solo

My top song of all time. From the start to the finish it's just about perfect. Lyrics, Riff, Chorus, Intro and Outro and all the finishing touches and how it's sung and played. I don't like the live versions much because they are played differently and Mick usually sings it differently but the studio version is something else.

Personally, I can't hear any JJF high part similarities myself.
Forum: Tell Me

The Acoustics through the cassette recorder still sound like Acoustics but with more edge to them and they still have the Acoustic guitars shorter sustain but with a touch more sustain than a regular Acoustic. The way JJF was recorded makes it somewhat hard to get a clear guitar tracks picture. There might well be Acoustics and Electrics playing the main riff. The high parts are Electric

Yes, it wouldn't matter about the tuning because the high parts are only played on the top E and B strings which are the same for Standard, Open E and Nashville tunings.
Forum: Tell Me

Yeah, I know Keith's style pretty well and the JJF high parts don't seem to fit in with Keith's style. They are more like colouring parts.

QuoteRedhotcarpet Ronnie plays single not double notes live. Yes, I had a look at some live Stones with Ronnie and he does play some of the high parts. I'm not really up with a lot of the Stones live performances. Ronnie also plays the Last Time riff live as well. Keith doesn't seem to play any of the high parts live. In the Rock and Roll Circus Keith doesn't attempt

I don't know what Mick really thinks about SFM and I don't think it matters much. He has said this but has also probably said glowing things about it. "I'm not sure if it really has any resonance for the present day. I don't really like it that much. I thought it was a very good thing at the time. It's interesting comparing the Acoustic guitar on SFM to JJF
Forum: Tell Me

Keith is talking about 2 Acoustics here but the high parts are Electric to my ears because of the longer sustain they have and their tone. It's obvious (to me anyway) that the opening guitar of JJF is Acoustic because it sounds like an Acoustic and has a short sustain and I think the 2 guitars in the main riff are Acoustic as well. The opening Acoustic guitar is high strung as Keith pu

Here is some Recorder from "A Degree of Murder" If any Recorder things actually became a part of Ruby Tuesday then I would assume those parts would have been dropped from the film soundtrack and so any possible Ruby Tuesday parts will probably not be on the "A Degree of Murder" soundtrack.
Forum: Tell Me

Anyone ever notice that Ruby Tuesday and the Brian Jones film soundtrack "A Degree of Murder" happened at around the same time. Keith was apparently sometimes in the studio with Brian playing on the soundtrack and the soundtrack contains folksy Recorder stuff. According to Marianne "Brian . . . played a folkish, nursery rhyme melody on the recorder. It was nothing more tha

These are the high parts or a close approximation to them more or less.

Why I think it's a Nashville tuned guitar is because Keith said there is a Nashville tuned guitar over the top ie covering the top end and the starting chords of JJF, before anything else joins in, just don't have any bass to them and a Nashville tuned guitar would be like this.

I have nothing against Street Fighting Man btw which I also think is a great Stones song.
Forum: Tell Me

The studio JJF is also my personal number one song ever and also Keith's btw. There is so much in the studio JJF with the guitars and other things and Mick's lyrics are just great. The live versions are ok but nowhere near the studio version.
Forum: Tell Me

Yes, it was quite unusual at that time and then Satisfaction has it's riff going on in a similar way for everything except the first part of the verses.
Forum: Tell Me

No sign of the JJF high parts in the Surrey rehearsals either as far as I remember. The high parts have a Sitar like open string droning thing to them (open string pedal point). The high parts don't sound like Keiths usual style to me but he could have played them but then again so could have Brian especially as they have this open string Sitar like thing to them.
Forum: Tell Me

I was just reading a Mick interview and he was saying Street Fighting Man isn't one of his favorites. Another thing about the JJF intro is Mick's Wotcha (or that's what I think it is) never getting a go in the live versions.
Forum: Tell Me

That makes sense. My opinion would be to drop Street Fighting Man and play the JJF intro.

The sustain of the Acoustics doesn't seem to be the sustain on the high parts. The sustain of the Acoustics drops off as Acoustics tend to do but the high parts have a Country Electric sustain thing to them and so that's why I think they are Electric parts and not Acoustic. The sustain of the opening Nashville tuned Acoustic drops off pretty quick compared to the Chorus high parts

This is what the main guitar parts in the studio Jumpin' Jack Flash seem like to me but it's only a rough guide and is probably not totally right. There could be more guitar parts then I mention as well. JJF has definite guitar parts playing different roles and it's great how the guitar parts weave together. Opening: Nashville tuning is normal top B and E strings with t

The Last Time Chorus obviously comes from the Staple Singers version and Mick and Keith have added the verses and so it's a Jagger/Richards song so to speak with a (ahem) borrowed chorus and added verses. The riff is played by Brian up the neck, as has been pointed out. The riff would be Brians IMO. The credits should really be Jagger/Richards/Jones. Jagger/Richards for the verse
