There hasn't been an It's Only Rock n Roll deluxe has there, though some sessions ended up on Goat. Is there much more? As for Black and Blue, that would be fantastic. Especially if they include the long instrumental version of Munich Hilton. Anyone know who exactly is playing on this? And when? video:

When they started up CYHMK, it sounded great, it focused every set of ears there, and kept em focused. It was really good to hear at the time, It may not repay repeated listening as a recording on a phone in a crosswind in a park, which make it very different from what was recorded in a studio 50 years ago, but WTF. A big hand, please, for the sour negativity and hatred for a band this board is

No, as i said in the above post, it's not about just being positive, but at times there's level of relentless negativity that is often then repeated time and again that is really sapping, and doesnt really have a place, to my mind, on a fan board like this, where generally people come cos they really like the Stones, Nuff said...!

So many moaning, repetitive cloth-eared Eeyores on here - the fan board for know-it-alls who HATE the Rolling Stones. Give it a rest. Eff off to another board.

I was near the mixing desks and more or less in the centre and there was a Sloaney female from Chelsea with two idiot chelsea boys in attendance who kept talking and talking and TALKING. I grew to loathe and hate them so much I could've ripped out their throats. Luckily she naffed off for a piss and they followed, so we didn't hear from those hideous Sloaney nightmares again. It was,

Fantastic gig, great audience, great band. CYSMK was a real surprise and pulled off brilliantly - really powerful and the Latin biug was good - I really like Karl D's work, he's no Bobby Keys and never was, nor is meant to be - just different. Same with the angularity of Ronnie and Keith's lead work. So it's not flowy and mellifluous like taylor - it's doing totally diffe

FYI if you're in south west London - there will be no District Line trains from Richmond on 25th, as well as no rail services. There MAY be Overground trains on the North London line from Richmond to take you to Willeseden Junction and the Bakerloo Line. I'm trying to find out if Tube trains will run on the Ealing Broadway branch of the District Line, as at least I can connect via a (ve

Can't wait for 25th June, but from the vids I've seen, I love Ronnie's jet-engine solos, blasting and distorted - it's hard to believe peeps are complaining about the volume! I recall Twickenham 2018 - Charlie's last UK date - was one of the loudest gigs I'd been at, but I'm sure it would still lag behind Motorhead ...

It could turn out to be a real nightmare and not only for concert and festival goers or workers or people needing to get from one place to another - the poor, hopeless deluded saps. That's because freight train staff will be striking too, so the deliveries chain could begin its exciting, extended collapse along with everything else.

Drop in to the One Kew Road opposite Richmond station - that was the Station Hotel where AOL first eyed the Stones. They apparently still have live music there. Nearby is Richmond Athletic Ground, below Kew Gardens, site of the first Jazz and Blues Festival, where the Stones played in 63 and 64, I believe. Then head down to Eel Pie - between Twickenham and Ham. Fantastic river walk. The Eel Pie

They are about excited with this reissue as we would have been in 1977 with a reissue of music from 1932...Thankfully, I'm of the older generation and can't wait!

Yeah. They probably played for a while with the idea that the hardcore might like this release, but finally understood that they really can't win. Wrongly mixed, constructed, awful cover, you name it. People will hate it anyway. No one should release anything any longer, since it is wrongly done anyway. At least if you are The Rolling Stones.
