Quotelaf848 Playing it this morning, I just love this album. IMO it is a Fantastic album. I was impressed with the video for Ride 'Em On Down. Played this album 5 times yesterday. Just don't understand how a Stones fan would not like this album. Right. Stones fan that likes the blues should at least like, if not love this record.

BTW does anybody know if e.g. the Itunes or vinyl version is mastered with the same distortion level as CD ?
Forum: Tell Me

Yes I know what you mean but I am convinced some tracks should not have had distortion.

QuoteBlueranger This album will be a footnote. It's not a great release. Sorry. I would not make such bold statements so quickly.
Forum: Tell Me

Yes on All your love distortion does not do harm.
Forum: Tell Me

Yes on some tracks it works. On some much less. Maybe in a week or so I can post which work well and which not.

QuoteRip This ...this album underscores how much we've missed the real Jagger....he hits notes he hasn't bothered to hit in 30 years...stunning... And in this sense he should not be distorted on some tracks, since there is nothing to hide.
Forum: Tell Me

I do not think it is good to compare music above some level with better/worse style. I believe that above some level (e.g. excluding bad/weak albums like Dirty Work - I play it sometimes by the way or unfinished outtakes like Indian Girl) it is a matter of individual preference and also judgement in time. For sure Blue and Lonesome is at least very decent contribution to blues albums and in

I just received my CD today. Overall - hats off, great music. If you dont like this you dont like the blues ... Only issue for me is the distortion applied on Micks voice on all or vast majority of tracks. If it were applied on some it works OK but some tracks suffer from the distortion. Also loudness war continues. Aside from mastering issues, this is inevitable record for every real Ston

Quotewaterrats Quotemandu keith solo on Sympathy for the devil is better than last week I bet he'd done some pentatonic practice, hehehe ... Yes, he can !
Forum: Tell Me

Yes he does. Sometimes he bums a note, sometimes he plays in wrong key, but to some degree it happened in the past too. But he still often does his magic. See e.g. here, how he comes from ordinary playing to moment of happiness.

Macca's voice is weaker now but he works hard. Still amazing to watch!
Forum: Tell Me

As much as I appreciate the possibility to watch clips from recent shows on youtube or rarely even periscope tv, I have to say yes, microphone position and/or lossy compression can affect the perception of show very much. To achieve consistent recording good microphones and CD (16/44.1) or better format is required. YT/periscope is good for fans sharing, but the quality of playing should not be

Quote35love Quotestone66 So I listened to the Keith solo in Sympathy For The Devil as posted above, and I can't see the problem many here have with it. But I can see why the Stones don't go out of their way to cater to the "hardcore" margin of their fan base -- because they could never do right, never play the perfect enough list of songs, and never play said songs well eno

QuoteNate QuoteHMS I just don´t understand people complaining about this and that. Just watched some clips and they seem to have delivered a great great show! Who´d ever thought they would ever do "Come Together" (very good version, btw), "Mixed Emotions" & "Little T&A"? Their version of "Ride Em On Down" was far better than the original! Keith
Forum: Tell Me

QuoteHansman Thanks for all the YouTube links. Much appreciated. My honest impression: I watched most of them now and I must say that the Stones sound really really bad on most songs. It reminded me a lot of some of the ABB shows I have seen which were mostly terrible. Keith really has lost all his chops by now. You can't call that guitar playing anymore. It's a joke really. Same wit
Forum: Tell Me

Partial criticsm or subjectively coloured opinion is OK, everybody is entitled to have it. But overall, great show and even some songs that did not went great went well enough I would not leave Little T and A in 1981
Forum: Tell Me

That has been awesome. Thanks for posting. Looking forward to buying Blue and Lonesome. Put aside minor glitches or imperfections or opinions which everybody surely can have and can be discussed later, overall Stones are rolling very strong. Period. Thanks Mick, Keith, Ronnie and Charlie and the Team ...
