My wife and I are feeling very sad. We knew it was coming, but not that fast. I will always remember when Jan visited us with another Stones fan/friend to enjoy a tasty coffee and some Japanese snacks and lots of talks about the Stones. RIP Jan, your spirit will be with us.

Mainstream ??? When I read that word I see a shepherd followed by thousands of sheep. The "problem" with the Rolling Stones is that they, right from the start, were never really part of "mainstream" of any kind. My parents generation hated the Stones right from the beginning, when they became internationally sort of known, because they didn't line up with .... mainstr

QuoteDGA35 Quoteshawnriffhard1 I can't recall where I read it, but isn't this the cover of the 1970 tour program? Yes, the ship/old car were the tour poster, most likely the tour program, too.

QuoteDan Said differently : in 86 Mick and Keef hated each other. In 88 they had realized they could not live without the other one. Hate is not what was the case. It was merely two "childish" (spoiled?) adults, who were p*ssed off by eachother and used the media to release their emotions. It can happen to all of us.

QuoteJbeckerfan QuoteRocky Dijon There were articles in the trades at the time. One of Cohl's business ventures was predicated on participation in the next Stones tour.

Wasn’t there this “story” about an offer from Cohl (secretly negotiated with Prince Rupert) to pay the Stones 1 billion dollars for a new tour? Wasn’t there a “behind the scenes war” to make sure Cohl wouldn’t make a penny of the Stones after that “insulting” proposal? Didn’t Cohl buy himself into stadium contract deals as to still be able to make money from the Stones? Isn’t the truth harder tha

Maybe I'm a weirdo, but over the past almost 60 years I really never thought in terms of "studio albums". Musicians are just like any other kind of artist. At some point you have an idea, but after several try-outs the result is not satisfying. So ... you put in on a shelf for the time being. Another day, when you just happen to run out of ideas you pick up some material from the s
