QuoteDoomandGloom That's it? This happens every second on stage, less noticeable but the band leader does lead. Taylor's lost in his own world for a second. For a second? Taylor was always lost in his own world when he started noodling. That's what I liked about him.

QuoteMathijs QuoteVT22 Thanks for posting; I never noticed that: Keith gets upset and Taylor doesn't give a shit. Those were the days. Priceless. Difficult to judge footage, but to me Taylor stops the noodling and looks quite sheepisly to Richards. Mathijs At least Taylor wasn't shocked or impressed, he finished his noodling a few seconds afterwards. But again, priceless.

QuoteMathijs QuoteDoxa QuoteMathijs Funny thing is -I listened to the San Jose 2013 version of Rambler, and during the first shuffle jam Taylor starts to solo. Within 30 seconds he starts noodling again, playing these useless fake jazz fusion runs. I am absolutely sure Keith wanted to shout at that moment 'shut the fvck up' again, just like he did in '72. Mathijs Mathijs's own fetisse... no

QuoteMathijs QuoteVT22 He doesn't practise, his fingers are stiff, doesn't pick up the guitar at home, and he has "blackouts"/ distracted, for some reasons. Simple as that. Aha, o.k. I didn't know it was all that simple.... Mathijs You are up to date by now. Believe me.

QuoteMathijs Quotekleermaker QuoteRoughJusticeOnYa QuoteMathijs I was very enthusiastic to hear that Taylor would play with them again, but in reality his playing has detoriated drastically, and he has lost about everything that has made him a legend.

It's mission impossible for Taylor. He cannot play like he did, and if he could, well...I don't know..

QuoteDandelionPowderman QuoteHis Majesty It's good, but Taylors boring strumming of chords doesn't match the aceness of the piano on the studio version, Micks vocal is perfect on the studio version and the sound and feel of the soloing on the studio version is pretty unique and cool as @#$%&! That is true. It's a good version, though, albeit incomplete. Keith's riffing makes up for the stand

QuoteDandelionPowderman Not giving a fvck about how to interact musically with your band mates (and with the song writers in particular) is NOT a very good quality It might work with a little bar band, though, sometimes... EDIT: I do NOT think Taylor didn't give a fvck, btw - that's purely romantically created fiction by some posters here... Sure he did give a fvck, to a certain extend.
