QuoteMisterDDDD QuoteJumpinJackOLantern Tonight ends the western swing. Wonder if this is it for the west coast? I mean, forever? Kind of a strange feeling to think that this may be the last performance ever on the west coast. No. They'll be back next year. Like Keith has said... once the wheel starts rolling... From what I understand there are more 'legs' of this 'tour' planned in the US

QuoteDoomandGloom saw it the pages about Taylor, it seemed credible, someone will be more specific, he said MT's playing time will be decided based on rehearsal and performance I believe. In the meantime he sits in on Satisfaction, begs for more monitor volume while Keith plays all the leads. Very credible. This has been the problem with Taylor for a long time. Always carping about sound onstag

Quotestonehearted Well, it isn't the seventies--or even the eighties--anymore, so things aren't as wild backstage before a gig like before. How do you know they haven't been wrapping gifts? They're traveling, they have days off, they might have gone shopping and bought stuff to be sent out in the mail, for friends and family and the like. Mostly obscured by the flowers, it looks like a couple

Quotestonehearted Perhaps he's visiting with Ronnie to go over the fan choice: Sway? There is a nice piece of paper on that coffee table seemingly bleached out. The light is bouncing off of it. It looks like a bit of wrapping paper, with a couple of gift-wrapped items underneath. Besides Mick is the one who decides on the set lists--Mick Jagger, that is. The others merely sign off on it

Quotestonehearted Emotional Rescue was the right album at the right time. It exemplifies the trends and contemporary sounds they were trying to incorporate at the time. But not a trendier sound and feel for an album as ER. They were still trying to be current and viable at that time. You keep stressing this point. What beyond the "disco"/dance of the title track was so overwhelming

QuoteDoomandGloom I bet Keith couldn't even name a Doors song much less play one. Still more enviable qualities in Keith. I only wish the archives of my mind could have similar omissions.

The Some Girls extra tracks are outtakes for a reason. They are more typical of a trend-free approach and could just as easily have been recorded and released earlier in the decade, and as far as a band edging into middle age a

Compare this to Sir Morgan's Cove, Toad's, RPM, Horseshoe, Double Door, Palais Royale, etc. All had songs they hadn't done before or for a significant period of time (i.e. different band members etc.).

I'm guessing this is the raw footage from ABC-TV's 20/20 piece about the 1981 tour. Rona Barrett interviewed Mick and the live footage was mainly from You Can't Always Get What You Want from Detroit.

QuoteRokyfan I think there is probably truth to the weakness of Keith, think it's very possible it's a huge effort for him to suck it up for these shows.

Hey, at least he is playing guitar on BOTH of the songs he gets to do. Last time I saw them (the last

Quotefrozengold Maybee Mick Taylors problem was that he played MR the way he did in 70´s and didn't listen to Keith and Ronnie. The Stones play it different today. I think the problem was he wasn't listening to the band he was playing with Sunday night. I'd hardly call what he played "Midnight Rambler" at all.

Find or download Captain Acid's "How Do You Hide Your Love?" 2CD set of Goat's Head era alternate mixes, versions, and outtakes. Most of the versions there blow away the final products. But Goat's Head Soup is a very underrated album in my opinion. And along with It's Only Rock N Roll, it really suffers from some terrible production/mastering. Both albums sound muffled, flattened
