What are my thoughts on Mick Taylor right now? I can't believe that such a musical talent has practically disappeared from the public eye. His guitar playing is unique, not only is he technically brilliant, but he absolutely has his own style. He plays in a league with the greatest! Against this background, his career is modest. I hoped in 2012/13 that the Stones would become a band with thr

Quotebv I was on the train from Paris to Dusseldorf two days ago. As soon as we arrived into Aachen, i.e. crossed the borders from France into Germany, we were told on the train speaker systems that masks were mandatory on all trains in Germany. The people around me did not care, but most others had masks on. I have been masked up for a long long time now, all the way from Madrid back in May this

Quoterolling1us Besides the DVD/Blu-ray i still prefer the sound of the good old Swingin CD set with the gold CD'S. Both are living happily together in my collection but IMHO the bootleg is still the best. In fact, nothing more to say! But: Another time shame on Sam Wheat!

Quotejp.M ..... if this song had been on "Aftermath" in place of "take it or leave it"...?..! It is a very beautiful song. It was a little bit hidden over the years and was first released on the American "Flowers"-Album in 1967. In Europe first on a compilation, "Through the Past, darkly" in 1969.

Perfect song for premiere at Gelsenkirchen next week.I've been hoping for years that they would play this beautiful song live.

: The Wiki article says that Tony Chapman doubted that he was the drummer on July 12, 1962. But there were about 100 listeners present. There should be witnesses who know who was really sitting at the drums.

Ian Stewart should have remained a band member. He co-founded the band and made some indispensable contributions, for example on Down the Road Apiece. Of course, Nicky Hopkins, Billy Preston were the virtuosos and is Chuck Leavell the more versatile keyboardist. Nicky Hopkins brought the greatest sense of melody (No Expectations), Preston could do it all and Chuck, who I often criticized (Plink P

Guys, you are fantastic! But please don't let Sam Wheat take care of your live album! Let Bob Clearmountain do it!

Nowadays the play MR with "Come on in my Kitchen" by Robert Johnson in the middle (a little part of it). Why not complete? Led Zeppelin e.g. played a complete medley of songs during "Whole Lotta Love".

QuoteBlueTurns2Grey QuoteRobertJohnson His Satanic Sound Butcher Majesty - Sam Wheat! Sound butcher, I like the term. Just have concerns about the butchers' guild. They certainly feel rightly offended when you associate them with this depressing sound result. Yes, you are right. The sound is an insult to all butchers!

Yes, a little problem. In 89 it sounded great. Ronnie's solos had a great impact. Nowadays he butchers the solos every time (also on TD). Why?

This performance is one of their greatest without any doubt. And it works astonishingly in the absence of the so called warhorses, but maybe because of the absence. The band once again confirms that they are at their best when they focus on the blues. Many then new songs gain in quality when played live. "Melody" is a highlight as well as "Fool To Cry", a song I didn't li

On the complete recording my impression is that Mick's voice seems to be underlaid with less reverb. It sounds more like El Mocambo from 1977 on Love You Live. A fantastic performance. Astonishing that these recordings were held back for so long. This would have been a number 1 album in 1977.

Billy Preston is truly a genius. You can see quite clearly in the film Let It Be how he gets the Beatles out of the impasse so that they pull themselves together once again. And he did that with
