QuoteCongratulations QuoteWitness Yes, impressive list! What about the Slovenian band Laibach's versions of "Sympathy for the Devil"? Haha! Problem with the 'warhorses' of course is that there are so many different versions to choose from. I like it when artists cover a relatively obscure song, and then very much make it their own.

Quotebitusa2012 With all these potential gusts, are Mick, Keith and Ronnie likely to be on the album? ???? The three of them could release their own album, supplemented, of course, by bass and drums! Then leave all the others to themselves to make an album, too, if they really want to. No objection, but I will only promise to buy the former!
Forum: Tell Me

I guess it was a compromise, though. It was not Mick's primary wish. (Much of the following is the old thoughts you are familiar with, Doxa, but not everybody else.) Instead it was brought on him and them by the reception to the band's music. Once more I have UNDERCOVER in mind. The solo career as alternative did not function. For what audiences were there available at the time for Mi

They have done a great job in terms of quality vs. quantity. But the Stones too with their previous album. It was funny how short BLUE & LONESOME felt like when it was released. It was 'ouch, did it end already?

By the way, for me the key to start loving THEIR SATANIC MAJESTIES REQUEST as album, in contrast to appreciating many of the various songs, was when I began to love "Gomper".
