Just got mine delivered today - thank goodness Amazon UK aren't using the Post Office for deliveries now or I would still be waiting for this and Mick's solo effort and the Marsha Hansen book, among other things. Nice parcel to work my way through.

Not that long since Certain Persons on this board were proposing something similar - except that it was going to be organised by IORR for IORR members - provided of course they could afford to pay $500 (or was it £500?) per ticket. The trouble is, if the Stones are ever going to play small venues again, how else are you going to organise the tickets when supply is tiny and demand huge?

Well, it looks as though the Hep-C has been known about and treated for a good few years, even if it's only just become public knowledge. So we probably don't need to start any doom-mongering. Nevertheless, best wishes for continuing good health to Marianne!

I've read somewhere a tale about the producer insisting on doing take after take after take of a track, trying to get some particular drum sound that only he could hear, and eventually Keith pointed out to him, quite politely given the circumstances, that if they were going for a final take that day they'd better do it now, because his fingers were actually dripping blood....

I did enjoy ABB, but what was missing from it that I'd like to see on a new album? - a wider range of styles - apart from Back of My Hand, there were none of those excursions into country, soul, blues, reggae and heaven-knows-what-else that give other Stones albums that touch of the gloriously unexpected. maybe this had something to do with the lack of guest-musicians, but the Stones can

Amazon UK are pushing this credit card of theirs too, but the lower price that you are offered if you sign up for the credit card doesn't show up until you Proceed To Checkout - the Amazon.de low price is showing on the item page and doesn't say anything about credit cards. I think you're safe on that score.

Only just found out about this, but Virgin Radio have/had an interview with Mick last night & tonight: They are saying that there is more MJ to come after 9 p.m. BST (it's now 8.40). Click on the Listen Live button at top right of the screen. If you miss it they say the interview will be available to listen again after a few days.

I found IORR last spring when I was checking the Internet for news - desperate to know how a certain Mr Richards was getting on, and whether my ticket for August was going to be any use. First post in July 2006, and now you can't get rid of me! (You're addictive, as predicted).

Many thanks for posting this - a really interesting read. I agree with Mathijs about the decision to recruit Ron Wood. In Mick Taylor the Stones had a fantastic blues lead guitarist, who gave them several years of great music in that style. But they were drifting towards becoming a band with the standard blues lead/rhythm setup, and another virtuoso lead guitarist would have set them more fi
