I had heard all the songs on Let it bleed that were on Hot Rocks. So when a friend of mine from school asked if I wanted to trade Zepplin 4 for "The Birthday Cake Album" (His words) I was not so sure but reluctantly agreed. So I played side one..... Gimmy Shelter.....Already knew it from hot rocks Love in vain......Too slow did not make a great first impression. Of course I cam

I remember seeing it at the Whitney Museum in he early 80's. We had to wait on line for hours. Then after we got into the theator section it was another few hours before it was shown. With all the mystery and hype in the papers back then we thought it was going to be a life changing event!...lol.....I remember being almost bored to tears. The highlight was Keith and Bobby Keys throwing t

I remember the first time I was able to afford good seats to a Stones concert was back in 1981. I had second row seats and was watching the stagehands do there thing and there was Stu on the stage right up by his keyboards. I pointed Stu out to some people down by me in "the good seats" and they had no idea who he was. Stu and Keef Apartment No 9

The only way I'm going to be able to take my wife and kids and not have to sell a kidney is if they play some stadiums. Personally I think the Elvis, Wayne Newton, Celion Dion, Elton Vegas route would be very tacky note to go out on. There the frikin Stones for Gods sake!

To me when I look at the "Bang a gong" video (The one with Elton) Everyone looks so dated except Marc Bolan. He has a timeless rock star look that could easily be accepted now. You really can't say that about many others. No doubt he IMO is the most androgynous performers of all time, not just in appearance but also in delivery.

One that struck me as funny, although you have had to have been there was..... Remember when Ronnie got into that boating mishap in Rio when his boat went on fire and the paparatzi rescued him and the rest of the people on the boat before it exploded? Well anyway, I was at the show in Syrause right after it happened and when it was time for the band introduction Mick said "Here he is s

I am in agreement with "The place is empty" come bare your breasts line.....ruined a great song. But the one that makes me cring is "Has anybody seen my baby". At the time it was released as a single the local radio station DJ's spent an entire week ripping it apart word by word. "trying to hold on to that was just impossible" or "salty tears it�

The Eagles, Bob Seger, Paul Simon, The Beatles, The Ramons, Debra Harry and Blondi (Although I have seen her in the local supermarket since she lives in my neighborhood....does this count?....)..... I was lucky to be able to attend the "Live Aid" concert in Philly back in 85. I caught a lot of acts I would have most likely never seen otherwise.
