I couldn't agree more. This was the Stones at the peak of their prowess and most authentic. Mick never delivered a more emotive vocal, and it's one of those tracks where the side men shine, namely Nicky Hopkins’ piano/Mellotron and Jim Price’s brass arrangement. Exile was slammed upon its release for its production, but this is the track where that murky production accentuated the emotion. Just brilliant.
You’re wrong, but I don’t even understand why any Taylor fanatic would care. There are so many things that come to mind before the guitar playing here.
@@ArmandoMPR Yeah, like Nick Hopkins’ piano and Mellotron, Jim Price’s brass arrangement, the backing vocals (with a conspicuous Dr. John), and Mick’s emotive and heartrending vocals.
My absolute favorite Stones song
Can’t get enough of it.
Top 5

Blues, gospel and Rock and Roll all in one song. Shows how interrelated they are.
Mick Taylor was in a class of his own in this period,amazing guitarist.
for me the best song of " Exile on Mainstreet " 1972
Love the intensity of Mick singing love songs,"shes a lover right on time".
She delivers right on time
I can't resist a corny line.
Exile...man, what a fucking record...
Wish they played it live
What a singer Mick Jagger is . What a band the Rolling Stones are . Sounds a bit silly but they do not get the credit they deserve.
This song is delicious. I saw the Stones back in 72 with my Brother at MSG right they came out with Exile. Stevie Wonders played first. What a night.
Historic.
This song makes me look back at life. All those relationships and memories. All just gone and banshees kist like that. Damn life is crazy sometimes
Mick was there for the bestt years,
@TheGooners11 he meant taylor
Rip Charlie
TRES Cool/Heavy!
Love it
The greatest track of all time, just the best.
Just imagine old Toothpick Mick rocking out on his death axe
No live version of this master piece?
Only the rehearsal version from Dallas, 1972. Outside of that, there is no live recording, and they have never played it at one of their concerts.
This is mostly MICK TAYLOR not "keef" by the way
That doesn't matter....its a masterpiece. Absolute musical perfection.

I love to think that Brian Jones would have loved this song.
Was this a Tribute to Brian Jones???
68' Jamaica ?
Never played live, a mystery.
but was on the rehearsals setlist in Dallas 1972
Do you get the lyrics man? its about the affair between Mick and Anita
in Performance movie...
Obviously Keith is not going to feel well about it....
so many layers to this tune....not sure a live version would do it justice.
