Mick Taylor is one of the greatest guitarists of all time. What a phenomenal player. He was a huge reason the Stones were so great during those years.
Mick Taylor was incredibly smooth and fluid with great tone. The best lead player they ever had.
it’s the feel he had. anyone can play pentatonic scales, but it takes years of dedication to play with that kind of feel.
For me the absolute best Rolling Stones music made was during the Mick Taylor era. He was so under rated. By the way the stones have been around 60 years not 40 years.
Criminally underrated. His slide guitar technique is immaculate. One of the best to come out of the UK blues rock explosion of the 60’s / 70’s. He made them better on stage just due to his excellent playing.
This entire show ("Ladies and Gentlemen...") is ferocious. The '71 Marquee Club clips are amazing too, prime Mick Taylor era.
Great job again 👏 Mick Taylor's lead was unbelievable- this was a great reaction 👍
Now you should check out their rivals THE WHO - Live at Leeds. It's recorded on a night when they were at their best and will blow you away with the driving force. With arguably the best rhythm section ever, it's amazing how three musicians can produce such music. Young Man Blues, My Generation, Amazing Journey/Sparks, and Magic Bus are masterfully done.
Leeds is masterful
I saw them twice in the 70's. They really sped this song up in this version. I love Mick Taylor. His sound and synergy with Keith are amazing. I have not seen this version before and I love it. One thing the Stones never played a song the same on each tour. Now after all these years it would be interesting to see a comparison of the different tours.
I’m biased towards them, but I believe I have the goods to back up my opinion. They are the greatest band to have ever existed. And during this particular period with Mick Taylor, they were miles above every act that came before or after. They are the archetypal rock and roll band.
I agree
They couldn't hold a candle next to LED ZEPPELIN. The musicianship of Led Zeppelin was magical......the Stones were a great act a great sound but Keith's a Rhythm guitar player not a lead. Mick Taylor was the greatest musician they ever had and he was no Jimmy Page. Bonzo was the greatest drummer that ever did it .. JPJ was masterful on Bass Guitar and Keyboards...and Robert Plant could actually hold a note and sing in Rocks most unique male vocals. Plus..Page did the guitar work studio on Symphony for the Devil . Did you know he produced it ..played lead.......he always helped the Stones. They would get laughed off stage next to Zeppelin
You can choose any song from that LADIES AND GENTLEMEN set. The Stones at their absolute peak. Check out "Midnight Rambler", "Love In Vain", "Dead Flowers", "You Can't Always Get What You Want", "Tumbling Dice", "All Down The Line" and everything else!
The Stones were a blistering live act in 1972 on their STP Tour. They would refine some things on their 1973 European Tour, but their coke-induced energy, tightness, and ability to churn out this type of show on a nightly basis (sometimes two shows on the same day) were unmatched. No other group could do it. As for Mick Taylor, he came into the group in 1969 as a replacement for Brian Jones, who was phased out for a slew of reasons and ultimately died shortly after getting dismissed. With Taylor, the Stones acquired a melodic and fluid lead guitarist and elevated their live act to another plateau as they prepared to embark on a nationwide tour of America in 1969. As a result, everyone in the band tightened things up after a two-year hiatus from touring. Their last tour, before Taylor joined, was a 3 1/2 week tour in Europe in 1967 to promote Between the Buttons, which aesthetically looked great but pales in comparison to the 1969-73 period. In other words, Taylor came, and the Stones certified themselves as the world’s greatest rock and roll band.
Stones were legendary, but I’d take Zeppelin in that era for pure EPIC-ness and The Who for their greater power. Personally, I rank Stones 3 on that last for live 1972, and I think also that Deep Purple and Sabbath are in that league or better. IMHO
The 1972 and 1973 tours were the peak of the bands live evolution. Amazing performances on both tours. This series of shows in Texas were awesome as was Brussels on the 1973 tour.
I've seen the Stones three times and they were amazing every time. But the show in 1972 at the Boston Garden is to this day the best live performance I've ever witnessed. That includes The Who at Tanglewood, Jimi Hendrix, U2 Joshua Tree tour and many other legendary live shows I got a chance to see. Heck I even saw Elvis. Nothing ever eclipsed that '72 Stones show. It's a pity that they did not do a better job documenting that tour. Maybe there's another project for Peter Jackson to resurrect some old footage.
They did, if you can find a copy of ‘Cocksucker Blues’.
What concert and when did you see Hendrix?
@@axis2946 Boston Garden 06.70
Stevie Wonder & Mayor White save the day! They got busted in my hometown. I was 15 and away at overnight camp. Somebody showed us a Providence Journal with the story featuring Mick & Keith's mugshots. LOL...
Mick Taylor was a glue that held a great band together
The Stones at their peak, in all their ragged glory!
Probably my favorite live version of this song. Gives my goosebumps what an incredible drive it has.
Do yourself a favor and listen to Midnight Rambler live from the Get Yer Ya Ya's Out album.
Something just f'ing magic about watching the Stones playing live in the 70's.
What I wouldn't give to go in a time machine and attend a Stones concert from back then.
Have you listened to the version from the 1973 Brussels Affair bootleg? It’s been officially released and now available here on YT. It’s even better than the Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out version.
I hope you consider doing album reactions. Beggars Banquet, Let it bleed, Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main St are more than worthy
The Great Four. In that order, of course!
I have questioned on other platforms whether the five albums the Stones put out over 5 or so years 1968 to 1973 (Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed, Sticky Fingers, Exile On Main Street and Goats Head Soup) represents the greatest sustained output across years/albums by any band.
Yep. Four masterpiece albums. 😊
@@dctbass I think they were. Led Zeppelin might be the only other group at that time who could rival those years
the Stones are on tour now......Reactors Alex & Andy saw them the other day in Florida in the U.S.A. and they said the concert was "Flawless" I have seen them in concert ....I hope you see them in concert before they are not here for you to see them in concert!!!! This song did not have the Female singer that sings on the original record.....they concert I saw had the female singer singing with Mick which was very special!!!! You didn't experienced the real song!!!! She is the star of the show and this song!!!!
I think they are still high from the experience!! 😁
You should check out Some Girls Live 1978! Great show! "Tumbling Dice", "Beast of Burden"," Miss You" or "Jumping Jack Flash.
I don't have to imagine! I was there in 1972 in Adelaide Australia. I was 13, right up against the stage with a speaker a metre away. I was deaf for 2 to 3 days.
Greatest band on the greatest tour ever .
Never saw this live performance, but thanks for the reaction
Keith has such a powerful sounding rhythm guitar!
"Midnight Rambler" from this same concert is incredible. Check that tune out! Worth the reaction.
Mick Jagger is an old man now, but he is still kicking. What a life. Like Paul McCartney and a few others. Just owning it all for 50+ years. Nearing the end now, but nothing lasts forever.
I remember reading an article about how hard Jagger would train to get in shape for touring. Exercise, diet, total preparation.
Still great after being together for 60 years - can't beat a British band!
Maybe it was coincidence, the time or maybe it wasn't...but the five or so years after Mick Taylor replaced Brian Jones have always been in my opinion the Stones best years as well as their best album recordings.
I was lucky to have seen this tour at Madison Square Garden. Their best year live
The Stones have been around forever and there are hundreds of live versions of Gimme Shelter out there. More recent ones include a female singer. But I'm glad you picked Ladies and Gentlemen as your choice. The Stones were at the peak of their powers in 1972, 1973. The absolute best version of Gimme Shelter of all time is probably London in 1973 ( ua-cam.com/video/P2etPYnI718/v-deo.html ). Mick Taylor is unbelievable on this version. Ladies and Gentlemen altogether is a great concert video with some of the Stones greatest songs played in their prime. My favorite song in that concert is Love in Vain. Again Mick Taylor is unbelievable.
In 1974 this film was booked into large theaters that employed a fancy sound system for the event. When my friends and I got to see it, it was a huge deal for us.
I don't know what the Stones dreams were in their early days but I bet they never dreamed the places that Mick Taylor would take them!
I saw them on this tour. I was 16 at the time. it was a fantastic show. They've been fantastic every time I've seen them since. I do prefer the Mick Taylor era though.
The Stones best work was with Mick Taylor. Check out Cant You Hear Me Knocking.
I love the Mick Taylor band. You gotta do Midnight Rambler man.
Arguably at their peak period ever...
Syed, the Stones are always better live, like all great artists. The very best live performance of Gimme Shelter is with Lisa Fisher, and was around 1994-5. The video is on their official UA-cam channel. Worth watching as I believe the Stones just got better and better live as they got older. Great channel keep up the great work.
Lisa is ALWAYS great
First Stones show was July 12th, 1962. That's 60+ years.
The Stones in their blissful heyday. They were never better. Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out!
Mick Jagger was on the UK DJ Steve Wright's radio show in the early 90s and one of Steve's female crew said when you heard Micks voice in the distance he was so charismatic it was like he was already in the room.
Small problem with this clip is that Merry Clayton isn't here and she was at least half of the record.
Check out Rip This Joint off the same concert film, Ladies and Gentlemen. Jim Price and Bobby Keys horn section shines!
If you haven’t seen the whole film you should- Jagger is the band “director”- you will see him scratch his ear when it’s time for a solo to end, various other little signals. He’s making sure Keith is watching him but he isn’t looking for a backup singer.
This song is still actual today
4:50. Mick Taylor is killing it but Keith’s savage groove guitar holds it all together and allows Taylor to thrive. Just listen.
Fuck yeah. Keef maintains the groove and plays his ass off.
Mick Taylor played on the studio album recording of this.
Mick Taylor was the Soul of the Stones. Greatest guitarist they ever had. They were too wild for Mick. Too much drugs too much bad behavior. He wanted to survive
1972 they are doing 18,000 seat arenas
I saw them 7/21/1972 1st show Even better. . Its on youtube. Trust me
Ummmmm in ‘72 the Stones were doing arenas and perhaps stadiums…like Zeppelin. They had been around since ‘64 and had a HUGE following.
Btw…they played Tampa yesterday and two young dudes I follow were there…they said that Mick “still moved like Jaeger” …he turned 79 today
If you want a real treat, see if you can hunt down a copy of Keith Richards' version, with the Xpensive Winos and Sarah Dash, from his 1992 tour in support of his "Main Offender" solo album. I have a copy of his "Eileen" single-disc that included a smoking version, in addition to a few other live tracks from that tour ("Wicked As It Seems" and "999," as well as a studio cut of "Key to the Highway"), and I believe some new footage from that tour, including at least one version of "Gimme Shelter," was released fairly recently, so it shouldn't be too hard to hunt down. Incredible performance, for sure.
They've been going since early 60's, so that's 60 YEARS not 40!!!!
They've been going longer than forty years....getting close to sixty years!
60 years from the beginning. 60!!
Keith's pal and partner-in-grime Bobby Keys(Rest in Peace) on sax was a vet of Joe Cocker's tours and records and loads more by the time he fell into the Stones' orbit, circa 'Sticky Fingers.'
Yes, Mick Taylor was a bluesy phenom. He, like Clapton, apprenticed with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers. So much of inestimable worth from his tenure, live, on record, etc. 'Get Your Ya-Yas Out', '69, one of the best live albums ever. Certainly in rock'n'roll. Listen to 'Midnight Rambler'. Edit again. 1000 seaters?!! 'Ya-Yas' was Madison Square Gardens. They were playing hockey arenas, dunno if (American) football-stadiums were on the itinerary yet, but in '72 they were at the apex of the live-act foodchain, with no rivals apart from Led Zep.
Never forget, though, by this point and well before, Keith was the muscular beating heart and prime riff-machine for these legends. Front men and lead guitarists were at least better picks than the random close-ups of whomsoever cameramen(persons?) and directors thought most photogenic, or due a turn so common in clips from the 60s.
Merry Clayton, "Rape, murder!!" on the original had a miscarriage(Mick's?) within days of that session, and is gone from the circle at this point.
btw, the documentary of this tour, which bubbled underground for years with semi-legendary status is called 'C**ks***er Blues', after the purported full title of the 'C Blues' they released in '66 or '67 as a kiss-off to Decca Records. Many DJs, including at least one here in Toronto, dropped the needle on it without a preliminary listen, live, on-air!! Heard a report 3rd or 4th hand from a classmate who'd been told by his brother the f-word, at least, figured in. It's waay worse, lmao. The movie was long only allowed to be shown in public 4 times a year, though filmmaker Robert Frank had not in later years necessarily been required to be in attendance as per the terms of his initial court "victory". Mick thought if it were much viewed or publicized, they'd never be allowed in the States again. It's easily Google-able. G'ahead.
p.s. Your fellow reactors Andy & Alex just went to see the Stones. Check out their report, if you're curious. The Glimmer Twins are nearing 80, ffs.
Bobby Keys used to watch Buddy Holly rehearse in his garage in Lubbock when he was a kid. He first met the Stones in San Antonio on their first or second tour and first appeared on “Live With Me” from ‘Let It Bleed’. He played with Jim Price for quite a while in Delaney and Bonnie and Friends, which included Derek (Eric Clapton) and all three Dominos, and at different times J.J. Cale, George Harrison, Duane Allman, Billy Preston, and Dave Mason, before Joe Cocker’s ‘Mad Dogs and Englishmen’ tour and before ‘Sticky Fingers’. He was exiled from the Stones for 10 years for skipping a gig to stay in a hot tub filled with Dom Perignon and a French model. I saw him in the late ‘80s playing with Joe Ely’s band in Austin, before Keith Richards helped him get his Stones gig back. By the way, I have a very rough bootleg of ‘C**ks***er Blues’ movie a friend got hold of for 24 hours only, and I talked him into letting me quickly copy it.
@@lathedauphinot6820 yeah, had a vague notion of the Buddy Holly connection, and the Delaney and Bonnie thing, saw one recently with them, Eric and George. Wasn't exactly sure of the time frame with the Stones or the deets on falling out and back in. That bathtub full of Dom story is hilarious.
Rest In Peace, Bobby.
@@damonhines8187 the person who knows a ton of that history is Bobby Whitlock. He used to hang around Stax Records when he was a teenager, learned organ from Booker T Jones, was signed to a recording contract, but Delaney and Bonnie Bramlett came in the studio, saw him singing and playing organ and asked him if he wanted to join them, went with them to Mississippi, met and played with Gram Parsons, Duane Allman, J.J. Cale, Billy Preston, and the other two Dominos, Jim Gordon and Carl Radle. Bobby Keys and Jim Price joined the band, Jimi Hendrix sat in with them a couple of times. They were hired to open for Blind Faith. Clapton loved them and basically joined them and quit Blind Faith. They toured with Clapton then backed him on his first solo record. George Harrison toured with them to thank Clapton for putting a core band together for ‘All Things Must Pass’, which was Derek and The Dominos… etc. Whitlock tells all these amazing stories about all this and Pete Townshend, Keith Moon, John Lennon, George Harrison, Ringo, John Prine, Bobby Keys, The Rolling Stones and how he was uncredited on ‘Exile On Main St’, on a UA-cam channel he has with his wife CoCo Carmel, who was married to Delaney Bramlett and is an excellent musician herself. He remembers everything: who played what on every track, said what, how songs were created. Sorry for the long reply, but if you have any interest you should check it out. It’s a rock and roll history class to make you feel like you know all these people personally. I’m in Texas and it’s hot. Hope you’re somewhere cool. Peace to you.
@@lathedauphinot6820 I've watched some of their videos, though I found Bobby hard to understand at times. That may have been a temporary tech issue, I'm not sure. Somehow, Bobby was among my first famous FB friends. I sent him a friend request, he accepted. I haven't gotten anything new from him in some time. He's crazy talented for sure.
As to the length of your reply, I tend to be somewhat verbose myself with less justification on the basis of useful information. You've provided a wealth of history and context of which I was largely ignorant, so thanks for your generosity and tireless typing fingers or thumbs as the case may be.
Toronto is not as hot as many places although I need to extract my AC unit from the window where it's currently stuck to clean the filter and maximize its operation, lengthen its life and lighten its load.
Thanks again and stay cool 😎 🌬⛄️
Mick Taylor joined the band in the summer of 69.
I saw them live for the first time in '72, @ Winterland in S.F. Bobby Keys (R.I.P.) on sax. I think you meant Merry Clayton (backup singer). She only sang for them once, in the studio version.
You need to watch more songs from this particular live show
The two luckiest men in rock-n-roll. Ringo Starr and Ronnie Wood.
Al Kooper added horns to studio & live performances.
If you really want to see and hear how well Mick held up and took care of himself - watch Shine A Light, The concert film done by Martin Scorsese maybe eight or nine years ago? Mick Jagger at 70 is more spry and nimble and charismatic and talented than most people could ever dream of being.
Pales in comparison to the studio version.
Yeah it's a good tune. Dead Flowers or Happy or Bitch from same show are way more epic.
Stones seriously coked up on this tour. Tempo much faster here than in studio. But the Stones could really bring it live. Together, Keith Richards and Mick Taylor played some of the best hard rock/blues rock ever. Listen to their dueling solos on "Sympathy for the Devil" on the live Ya-Ya's album. Best rock guitar of all time.
Syed…now do The Who’s Won’t Get Fooled Again live from 78 !!
40 years!?
The Stones were performing in the early 60s in clubs. I think Alex Korner initially mentored them
4pOyears only brings them upto 2000 or so . It is 60 years !
this was 1972 . Jagger was in his prime. Voice should not be a issues!
Have a look at the Glastonbury gig that'll blow you away too.
I would like you to react to Thin Lizzy - The Sun Goes Down. Great band, great song. Cheers from Serbia 🍻
I've seen many live videos of this song, but not one quite this old before . . . I think the sound quality is better on the more up-to-date recordings, well of course it is. The lack of a female vocalist in this one is a shame and to be honest it sounds a bit rushed. Sorry.
But what's amazing is that if you search for 'Gimme Shelter live' there are videos up there from the current tour. In 2022. FIFTY years later. Astonishing.
Thay have been playing 60 years
For a live performance catch Jagger and Tina Turner dong State of Shock and It’s Only Rock and Roll
Great drums! The entire band is really on point here. Mr. Taylor sounds great too. ***I have a suggestion for a reaction. I hope you break away from 95% Zeppelin/Metal/Stones. The early Rod Stewart was really amazing. Every Picture Tells A Story by Rod Stewart. Or how about really stretching? How about Court and Spark by Joni Mitchel? Or Living for the City by Stevie Wonder. Or REALLY stretching and reacting to Tomorrow Never Knows by the Beatles. There's a reason bands from Los Lobos to Grateful Dead have covered that song. Something to consider.
Time for some Deep Purple
Check out the video of the Stones promo Start Me Up. On UA-cam.
This is an okay version, but in a way you should have done the live version at Altamont. I'm not sure it's something you'd want to do since it is infamous for audience member Meredith Hunter being stabbed during the performance but even so, what an atmosphere on that performance.
The Stones were not playing small clubs in 1972; they were selling out arenas (such as Madison Square Garden-twice). This version lacks the power of the original, mainly because it needs a female voice like Merry Clayton's screaming "Rape! Murder!" instead of a saxophone. You should check out the live version of this song with the Stones and Lisa Fischer in the Netherlands from 1995. It's smokin' hot! And it really showcases Mick's charisma.
You need to review of street fighting man . Search lady’s and gentleman The Rolling Stones
I believe that was taken from the garden.
It was from Tarrant County Convention Center in Ft. Worth, TX. June 24, 1972
40 years? Check your sums. Over 50. I saw them last November. This was the penultimate song as part of the encore. Mick playing off the woman vocalist (younger woman don’t know her name apologies) and the chorus made it in 2021 better than the clip you showed. Go see them. Old? Sure. But awesome.
I know Mick Taylor has a lot of fans, but for me, Ronnie Wood has more presents, power and a better tone.
Mick and Keith invented music with a PUNK attitude, especially live.......and Ronnie Wood made it 3.
He even looks like their brother or cousin. lol
U tube is full of recent videos of them live, but we can’t expect 70 yo’s to be still performing on point.
The older live videos of Keith and Ronnie swapping between lead and rhythm are the most vibrant and entertaining musically..... especially on Gimme Shelter, Sympathy for the Devil and the other numbers that have a similar feel created by Charlie’s drumming and Keith’s creative writing .
Many pundits say they are just Micks backing band...... I say that Mick was just the singer and co frontman with Keith and Brian, then Keith and now Keith and Ronnie.
I love the 72 shows. This song was not perfected live yet. They needed the female counterpart they have now. Standouts from this show are 1. "You can't always get..."
2. "Sweet Virginia" and 3."Love in Vain" Oh and "Midnight Rambler"(not ranked)[in a category alone]
The significant aspect of the 1972-73 era of the Stones was not only how refined they became as a band, but it was a smaller scale in scope compared to forthcoming tours. The lack of background vocalists was a plus, not a downgrade. They were on fire on this tour and played with blistering energy. That said, I agree with your list from the ‘72 Tour.
You're correct that the absence of Merry Clayton (not "Mary Taylor" but good try) leaves a very big void in the closing impact that this song usually had. The Stones often or usually had excellent back up singers performing this song with them on tour. The absence of that vocal part, especially the miraculous studio version performed by Clayton, demonstrates how critical that vocal was and Mick seems a little lost without it. But ya know, go to the venue, get a bit baked, let the power of the guitars weave through every fiber of your body, and you have a good time to remember anyway. A full body music massage on both sides of your skin.
It's Mary Clayton, not Taylor
Well back they did'nt have autotune so the live voice sounded just like record
love the way you break down the instrumentation and song writing in your reactions. DO YOURSELF A BIG FAVOR and check out Otis Taylor one of the greatest blues song writers of our time. You could be one of the first to do a reaction to his music and turn a bunch of people onto him.
As great as Taylor is this song is still about Keith. Great reaction.
Mick is sure in top five list of frontmen…and along with Daltry of The Who, sort of led the way…and then Plant came along and solidified it. And then there’s Freddie……Number five for me is difficult ….. there are another handful that were outstanding.
Try thinking of someone who's not white.
@@billvegas8146 yeah for sure…James Brown. That’s where Jaeger got so many of his moves. I adore much of the black blues guys, but we’re talking frontmen here, and outside of Brown and Little Richard, I honestly don’t know any. And just like the Black American Delta and Chicago blues, it took the Brits to make it mainstream (except for Elvis of course) a shame, but true.
Im always ready to learn however….give me other great black frontmen to experience
The studio version is part of music history. you can't improve on it.
You're more insightful than anyone I've seen doing music reaction videos.
While I agree that the Mick Taylor years were the Stones' career peak, the biggest reason was Keith Richards and Mick Jagger reached their peak as songwriters during this time, and Taylor's guitar helped their songs soar.
However, the best live version of Gimme Shelter is, for me this 1995 performance from the Stones' "Stripped" club shows. The guitar interplay between Keith and Ron Wood is fantastic, and long time Stones' backup singer Lisa Fischer sings the parts that Merry Clayton sang on the studio version and steals the song! Here's the link:
ua-cam.com/video/-pA-i4miT54/v-deo.html
It's certainly interesting to hear it in it's most stripped down version, and of course the best thing about it is it highlights Taylor's superb soloing, but, for me, this performance is too fast, it looses some of the menace. The sound and film work is too rough, you can't see half the band, Charlie's driving it but his kit is mixed too far back. If you want to hear a recent performance that includes the fabulous Lisa, check out ua-cam.com/video/8kl6q_9qZOs/v-deo.html
Stones greatest show in rock from '64 to late 70s.. there are better videos where you can see the whole band cooking... quite a scene bless them all...
Yeah, good work by Mick Taylor, the Stones' premier lead guitarist. For a more riveting live version of GS, all eyes, including Mick Jagger's, are on the incomparable vocalist Lisa Fischer. See here: ua-cam.com/video/nAWaJuT5YEM/v-deo.html
Ignorance is a job requirement.
Forty years? LOL
Uhhhh try almost 60.
There is no sax. And I might suggest te intro to satisfaction is more recognised
Not the ""most recognizable" guitar intro of all time. Purple Haze-Hendrix, Stones own Satisfaction, others more
This was the stones at their highest messed up genius. There's better versions. Taylor left coz he got into the drugs too much and couldn't keep up with Keith. He left for his sanity. Ron Wood joined coz he fit their lifestyle beating steve marriott, Beck and Clapton. Clapton was the one who said u ain't gotta be the best guitarist, you gotta be able to live with em. Ron fit. The sax is played by the legend Bobby Keys. When the stones were invited to the playboy mansion, Bobby n Keith got bored so went and found a bathroom the size of a house n cooked up. A couple of hours went by n they were so fucked they woke to the curtains being on fire. Needless to say they were banned from the the mansion. Mick was not happy. Mick sacked Bobby for him and Keith's adventures. Keith brought him back secretly and he was so good Mick let it go. Ron and Keith's books are rock n roll legend and collaborate stories so u know its true. Keith even gives u his shepherds pie recipie.🤣🤣🤣 keep it up. Great channel!🤟🎸😊 taylors solos on shine a light are superb! Exile on main street is my favourite album. However, the guitar play by Ron and Keith on love is strong in the 90s, when they old, is something to behold.
Check this ROLLING👅STONES music video 🔥RESPCTABLE🔥🎼👍🔥🤘
They kicked Taylor out because he was too good. It was kind of messing up the mix!
Taylor left on his own accord. In fact, Mick and Keef tried to talk him out of it as the group was preparing to embark on another major tour.
I love the Stones' music but when I saw them live they were a little disappointing and I think this live version of Gimme Shelter is also disappointing.
You're crazy. The Stones in 1972-73 played with remarkable energy and tightness, expanding on their brilliant compositions and taking their musical prowess to unprecedented heights. I don't understand people who want to see a flawless live performance that mimics the restraint of a recorded song. The Stones never did that in the Taylor era and stretched these songs to their maximum.
Not even close to being as good as the studio version. Doesn't have the weird vibe to it. Listen to the studio version to really get the full affect of the the guitar opening-so spooky sounding.
