These Track Talks are eternally relevant. Like BV has said. And "Silver Train" is a great tune. There is something so irrestible in it that I haven't never really grasp what it is. Something so Stonesy I guess... - Doxa

Quotebitusa2012 So, just over 7 tracks per year. Or, a single and an EP per year approx. But if we look at Nankstone's great listings, in 1964 they released 36 new songs (not even including later archive releases). It's been downhill ever since as far as being profilic goes .. - Doxa

QuoteNankstone Thanks for your list Ricky, but some songs are not clear for me. "We Want The Stones" is not on "my" list (for me an impertinence to call this a separate song by Jagger/Richards) but it's your dicision But then why not on your list "I'm Yours And I'm Hers" (Live 1969) ? Or "Get Together" (Live with other Artists) (1964)

Impressive research work, people! Ricky, I see that the non-disputed Stones classic and a Nanker Phelge original, "We Want The Stones", has made your list. - Doxa

Indeed, Taylor1. I got that (besides, the same opinion about Bill - but not regard to B&L. For me neglecting that album makes an "album" a sort of metaphysical entity, based on romantic notions of creativity dubbed together with 'artists themselves should be responsible for original song-writing', nothing to do with actually recording music and releasing it). - Doxa

Well, probably there is a long way to go from "ideas for songs" to actual songs... Seemingly it was just talk with Alexis, not like picking up an instrument and saying 'you know, it goes like this'. For some people probably an idea is some kind of riff, a chord sequence or a melody or lyric sketch, but for Brian that seemed to more like intellectual idea with no musical or any

Very true, R Dog, what you said about the Stones offering soon pretty convenient stuff. They would be very soon yesterday's papers, as far as trends and nailing the zeitgeit goes. But still they had, like always, a certain edge in their music. Something the Beatles never had. You mention "Wild Horses", but the true hit of the day was "Brown Sugar" - something in contr

Just thinking of the times when the Beatles call it quits, what they really had anymore to say? The Stones provided a soundtrack for the times with "Gimme Shelter", and there were so much hot things going on.

Yeah, true Taylor1, that Brian's quote is a second-hand one, and naturally needs to be a bit careful with those.
