The Rolling Stones - Torn and Frayed

- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- Verano de 1971. Los Stones se van todos juntos a vivir a Villefranche-sur-Mer, Francia a componer canciones y grabar. De esos momentos de inspiracion surgio un puñado de canciones como esta que quedaron registrados en "Exile on Main Street". Disco que capta perfectamente el espiritu de aquellos dias.
When your favorite song is rocks off, then it’s let it loose, now it’s torn and frayed.... I think we can agree that exile is the greatest album
well said, best album they ever did.
And dont forget loving cup 😄😅
@@jujum635 u never get tired of Stones songs like the radio golden hits crap
It's not even in their top 5. Poorly recorded, unfinished songs and too many fillers. Sure, there are a few great tracks, but that doesn't make it a great album. Indeed, Jagger has said so himself.
@@stones8484 yes
Exile on main Street is a masterpiece agree folks.
Back in the early 70's, we thought this kind of creativity and awesomeness would be normal. How wrong we were.
In the opening when Keith is totally strung out, I have been there man. No better way to put it other than being torn and frayed. I've since got clean, 50 days clean today. Recovery is hard man. A totally new way of life for a guy who was used to going 1,000 miles a minute and taking in all the bad stuff along the way. Don't want to preach, and by no means does the part end cuz I'm clean, but there's no reason anyone can't get clean, it's a simple program. Peace, Love and Hope, Matt from MI, USA
Hung in there man,I'm doing crystal methamphetamine,it's a big rush then misery..hope you come through the other side well
This whole album is BRILLIANT!!!
I'm with you 100%, Exile is a work of genius, every track's brilliant.
Yep. English people trying to be black bluesmen and achieving something 100% original in the process.
Without a doubt, my favorite Stones song of all time. It never makes the greatest hits CDs and is never mentioned with the rest of the greats, but for my mone this is the best Country blues song ever written.
Love it 8 really nice songs on it sounds so different from previous releases
This song is phenomenal.
I AM WITH YOU BROTHER!!!! The Stones at their BEST!!!!!! a Great Country blues song!!!
Just as long as the guitar plays, it'll steal your heart away.
the life of musicians and the curse of addiction culminating in one of the best outro's in modern music. this song truly cemented my love of the rebellious stones and their incredibly expressive music intoning the ascending melancholy that accompanies these country blues songs. this album was such an awesome display of musicianship and reflection of the tumultuous times in which we were living .
The Beatles were a pop band of the 60's that changed music.
The Stones are a 50+ yr phenomenon unto them selves.
Perhaps the greatest R&R/Blues band ever.
Yes sir , terribly misplaced r n b band
Perhaps ? So who else is in the running ?
The Stones pretty much sucked forever after doing Some Girls, with a couple or few exceptions.
@@daseguin Is it safe to say that you aren't nor ever was a real Stones fan. I don't know of any fans that would say that and yet here they are in the year 2022 still delivering the goods to fans in stadiums around the world. I'm pretty sure they would disagree with you as well. #nrvpunks ⚡
@@phedgeyanker 😆🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is why their the greatest country band.
I hope Charlie Watts knows what a great drummer he is. Fits like a gem in every musical style RS experimented with.
He knew ,now he knows in Heaven, R.I.P. Charlie
Skksksn
the minute before Torn & Frayed I thought it was impossible to cry for a song...
4.17 minutes later I was in tears like a baby...
That's the power of music
Got it Man!!!!
Country, blues, rock, reggae, the Stones play everything
The world's best Country band
torn and frayed is something special. I hear it in my mind every morning. It's about love and hurt. It's a perfect song thank you stones.
Drugs are bad, but DAMN if it hasn't helped create some of the best fucking music ever made.
Just as long as the guitar plays it’ll steal your heart away.
Which is the line that leads into Al Perkins STEEL guitar solo. Most miss that play on words.
I feel like the lyrics are more about Keith.
So many great memories whenever I hear music from Exile. This is one of my favorites from the album. So many years now. This album was with me through my youth, first loves, two deployments, and now I’m 59……I was 9 when it came out in ‘72.
I 5 years!.
I was 8!!! I discovered "Exile on.." at 21...after my first gig in 1982....❤❤❤😳😳😲❗️
HOW MANY TIMES❗️❗️❗️
AND I STILL LISTENING TO IN BETTER AND WORST MOMENTS....
I feel exactly the same way. I was sixteen when it came out.
Closing in on 2023 and this song still kicks ass
Greatest band ever.I just love the Stones.
FACT!!
These ppl are like the stones we’re a blues cover band. Fuck off! Amazing.
I was 12 when I bought Exile! & this one...! It's stayed with me as my all-time fave Stones song
sarahzentexas Me too. Well, I was 14. Great to know other people love this song and albums
I was eighteen
15 years old.
I was sixteen when I bought it in summer 72.
Unfortunately stolen by junkies !
@@happymonday9562 👍 😭 loved the post cards bought from the Virgin shop in Liverpool
The best American rock band of all time is from England
Yeah, they certainly got American music down to a science.
A beautiful thing.
Yeah and the funny thing is it was recorded on the French Riviera. Whacky bunch of guys.
Bin mit den Stons erwachsen geworden. Mein Idol .mit 64Jahren immer noch.
@Willie Gordon wasnt it a drug thing?
yeah, true!
MY FAVORITE SONG FROM exile, JUST GETS BETTER AND BETTER....
The Glimmer Twins at the height of their powers and Mick Taylor ALWAYS made them a better band.
JD Anderson yes , I see . True that !
@Malte Laurids Brigge ....so what did you want him do do? Prance onstage like Jagger? Taylor was strictly business onstage, he didn't have the "rock star" personality that Ronnie and Keith have, probably why he wasn't a good "fit" in the band so to speak. But that didn't take away from his brilliance on guitar. Your "overestimated contribution" comment shows your ignorance in this genre of music. In plain English you're full of shit.
@Malte Laurids Brigge ....sounds like you're a fan boy too. Hmmmm.
@Malte Laurids Brigge ...I'm responding to your comment, "people like yourself are such fanboys"....yes, I am a fan of MT just like you're a fan of Ronnie Wood. Besides Taylor was not of that fabric where he needs to release "hit songs or albums. After the Stones he didn't even "join" a high profile band. He's low key, he's strictly business but you call that "boring as fuck". Don't get me wrong, I love Ronnie, he has charisma, he's flashy, he still has spiked hair, he has the image of a rock n roll star, he's what the Stones wanted, he's what Keith wanted, it's Keith's band, Keith wanted Ronnie. There will always be debate and conversation on when were the Stones better, during the MT days or Wood days. Everybody has their opinion, mine is MT, yours is Wood. I believe the overall consensus is that the Taylor years were the best for the Stones. He's clearly the better guitarist.
@Malte Laurids Brigge ....Your original post was MT was boring as fuck and overestimated contribution. I disputed, or disagreed, with that comment. I stand by my opinion and the consensus of the masses that the MT years were the best for the Stones. That's all I've ever tried to say here.
I love this presentation. The pictures are fantastic. This is my favorite band and album. Absolutely!
Its Al Perkins, quite possibly the best steel guitar player of all time.
I agree. Believe it was Gram Parsons who introduced Al to the Stones. This song is simply one of the top three Stones tunes of all time...thanks for the song and video
The Stones at their best. This track moves me each time I hear it. Main Street is and will always be an absolute classic!!
this is just one of those songs that I've slowly become addicted to! Just an amazing album!
«Torn and Frayed». Absolutely.
One of their best.
Much appreciated.
You can hear Gram Parsons' influence on the Stones loud and clear on this song.
Yes 100 Years from Now, think Keith was much influenced
The Stones era that moves my soul. Thanks for that.
This song describes the music of the early '70s better than any other song. The free love life was over and it was dirty country blues
The Mick Taylor Years. Best Stones Ever
His coAt may Be torn an FRayeD,but all THese sonGs aRe fReakin' masteRpieces.THank you,eteRnaLLy Stones,thank you !
One of my first and favorite personal records ever. Listed to this song as a child not knowing who it was. The memories guys. Fuck yeah. Exile forever
Best song on the best album ever fucking made.
kaisamsa yes
I ran away with them that summer. It is a story to be told.
kaisamsa oh my how right u are about this being the Best song! Now as far as the ‘best album ever’ - well I would definitely say it’s def the Stones’ best album!... there’s just way too many classic rock albums to say best album ever, but you’re not far off w that statement! My God how when I bought this album 21 years ago my old head friend was so jealous of the fact that I was hearing most of these songs for the first time... I was young at the time n into gettin high and it was all very new to me so u can just imagine how much fun I was having as a 20 yr old kid! Fuckin Awesome. Man those were by far the best F’n days of my life! What I wouldn’t do to go back to that time in my life... but hey every time I hear this song it def does always take me back to that time n place. How good music could do that like nothing else in life!!!
kaisamsa CLOSE.THEY HAVE MANY EXCELLENT HITS.BUT U ARE VERY CLOSE MY FRIEND.IY IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS FROM THE BEST BAND EVER.
What about tumbling dice?
Classic stones a Masterpiece 🎸☮️
its mind blowing mick and keith could write such good country music...they really could do anything...
Best album ever made. All great, great, great songs. Slide guitar on this is outrageous
one of their best albums - but it's a pedal steel guitar here
Favorite Stones track. Love the pictures.
Can you imagine that right when you get out of bed it’s time to get on stage? Keef!!!
this is 1 of my favorites! love the stones. and all good music that tells a good story
I just don't think ANY vocalist I've EVER heard could have fronted the Stones.... Jagger is just one of a kind!
Amen to that
Everyone is one of a kind thats the beautiful part of life
Jim Morrison
You Mum nah
@@youmum5873 He wouldn't of worked, sounds too deep and clean and "sinatra-like" when he' singing slow, and his metal-like screams were more made for psychadelic rock.
Best damn rock and roll ever!!
one of the great overlooked Stones songs....I recently found out it is "his coat is torn and frayed" and I had always thought it was "who is torn and frayed?".....a true personal mondegreen for me...nice slide show, thanks
I gave a friend a cassette I made of Sticky Fingers. He liked "Sister Murphy".
It is so great to hear this Song, the whole Album. Ich kann nicht sagen, was mir diese Platte gibt. Das Album ist einfach gigantisch. I like it, like it, yes I do. All the best from Bavaria
Hey let him follow you down
Way underground wind and he's bound
Bound to follow you down
Just a dead beat right off the street
Bound to follow you down
Well the ballrooms and smelly bordellos
And dressing rooms filled with parasites
On stage the band has got problems
They're a bag of nerves on first nights
He ain't tied down to no home town
Yeah, and he thought he was wreckless
You think he's bad, he thinks you're mad
Yeah, and the guitar player gets restless
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Let it steal your heart away
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Joe's got a cough, sounds kind a rough
Yeah, and the codeine to fix it
Doctor prescribes, drug store supplies
Who's gonna help him to kick it
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Let it steal your heart away
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays
How about lyrics to, let it loose?
Thank you for the lyrics to this Classic!!! Thanks.... Autobiographical and about the power of Music.
The guitar is so amazing in this song it's simply ear candy
what a great song!
An often-overlooked gem. One of my favourite Stones songs.
This was one for Mr. Keith. The L.P. exile on main street, was a f#$&@+g classic! A double classic. Keith & Sir really came up with the answers on this record. Keith landed a studio, right there on his property, in a French villa, where him & Anita would safely do their dope, and resume their way through their rock & roll life.Others would stay there as guests, like Bobby Keys, Graham Parsons, & a few others on various occassions. That would be the last of times for Mr. Parsons. Whatever they did, worked for the record. "Exile on Main Street", was a double album. A masterpiece actually.
I guess I should consider myself extremely lucky. As I have seen the Stones in concert with the gorup''s Founder, Mr. Brian Jones. This was in September 1967, just before I turned 15. Now, that was the real Stones. Less than 2 years later, Mr. Jones was no more.
You are lucky. Early stones were great. '69-'74 stones just as good if not better.
You are right, seeing the first line up would have been a good one, sadly after Brian passed away the recruitment of Mick Taylor proved a very smart move.
I disagree....in my modest opinion there Are THREE ROLLING STONES BANDS...
THE JONES (CO-FOUNDER) ERA...THE MICK TAYLOR ERA...
WHEN No one band flew SO HIGH...and last Ron Wood ERA.. a kind of Keef glimmer....
Best. Stones. Song. Ever. Keith and Gram Parson Masterpiece. Nevermind the song writing credits, if you listen real close you can almost hear Gram and Keith's collaboration at Nellcote for this country blues gem. :)
Love these photos!!
one of the finest songs ever recorded
Perfect reality of demonstration
Country rock or blues ,alt country or Americana whatever one can label this type of music , it never sounded better than Torn & Frayed with the Rolling Stones in their prime period.
Country soul…
Sin duda la canción de Keith. Resaltando que Al Perkins (un músico country) le da el toque campirano, guitarra y bajo de Mick Taylor, Keith Richards en coros, con una excelente guitarra acústica. Poderosa voz de Mick Jagger, la escencia plena de los Stones en el mejor material de toda la era del Rock "Exile on main Street".
Tu sabes de música
Thank god for mom, apple pie, and Mick Taylor
exactly. In the early 70's the rock music public wanted more sophisticated, versatile and lyrical guitar and Mick Taylor could play anything and saved the stones from being in limbo for 3 or 4 years.
your a funny guy Steve Soprano lol
Love that! Ain’t it truth!
Bass player here
Outrageously brilliant track from THE best band in the world.
I am really looking forward to the 2024 tour. it would be great if they played this song--a concert rarity. Played live only 3 times
Best time for the Stones...!! Mick Taylor Years were the most creative and inspired...!! They were the best rhythm'n'blues band of those times
AS LONG AS THE GUITAR PLAYS. BEAUTIFUL TUNE AND ALBUM
uno dei grandi album della storia della musica Rock
Greatest album of all time.
I have a a big limited print of the cover from the 90’s. Been to every tour since late 70’s. This ranks in top 3. Going to their new tour for Hackney Diamonds starting in Houston April 24.
The Greatest Americana 🇺🇸 Record ever made, and by a bunch of English Man 🏴 , Love it 🌞⭐️🙏🏴🇺🇸 , God Bless America and England ❤️❤️❤️
My Favorite Stones Album!
Just, totally amazed they all lived into the 2000’s.
Big smile!! ☺️☺️☺️☺️
Maravilha essa música!!!
They settled on Nellcote in the south of France because they were tax exiles of course and Keith and Anita were renting there. There was a harbor there with a lot of expensive boats and Nellcote was up on the hill overlooking the harbor. They weren't supposed to record there but Mick and Keith had scouted around for places to record and didn't find anything they liked...........which was not unusual because Mick and Keith often didn't like much of anything. They could be pretty..........we won't call it negative, we'll call it "picky" at times. So they recorded mostly in the basement at Nellcote. There was no "big" room in the basement so oftentimes Charlie would have his drums in one "sweltering" {it was a south of France summer} room and Bill would be playing the bass in another room and perhaps Mick Taylor and Keith would be in another room and maybe the horns would be in another room. They were also using the "Mobile Unit" which was small and pretty primitive at the time. I think the "Mobile Unit" was in the back of some trailer. Now as I said all of this was going on down in the "dank" basement of Nellcote. The power would go out AT LEAST once a day. They'd be in the middle of a nice "take" and the power would go off for an hour and then they'd finally get back to work an the power would go off again. Some times Jagger was there and some times he wasn't. Jagger had married Bianca an Bianca had just had a baby so Mick was commuting from Nellcote to Paris which was an hour or hour and a half away...........so some times Jagger would be there and some times he wouldn't. Same with Bill Wyman. He was living away from Nellcote too. The person who was recording everything was Andy Johns. Andy was the younger brother of the famous Glynn Johns and was only about 20 or 21 years old. You can imagine how excited he was to be doing it. Andy lived about 15 minutes away. Mick Taylor was living at Nellcote. Charlie was.I think Bobby Keys {horn player extraordinaire and Keith's heroin buddy} was staying there. {There were a number of people living there an eventually Anita demanded they pay rent which they did.} Supposedly at one point while they were at Nellcote someone found Nazi insignia's carved in the basement and they found out that Nellcote had been used as an administrative center and "interrogation center" by the Nazi's in the second world war. They'd have these big lunches upstairs every day. 20-25 people. Graham Parsons {Flying Burrito Brothers} Keith's friend from California and supposedly his country influence {Wild Horse's, etc} was there for about a month but Graham became so obnoxious he was asked to leave. {I don't think Graham and Jagger liked each other too much either.......................Keith and Anita and a number of other people didn't like Bianca either you know. They thought that Bianca acted as though her "shit didn't stink" or something.................Jagger would "stay over" sometimes. Every night Keith would have to go upstairs to "put Marlon to bed." {their young son at the time} He'd be gone for a good hour. The others knew "putting Marlon to bed mean't Keith and Anita were "fixing up" their last time of the day.............There was an incredible amount of heroin and alcohol going around Nellcote. Dealers in and out. Keith and his buddy {gopher} Tony Sanchez were copping incredible China White heroin of the highest quality. Tony wrote about it in what I still think is the best book ever written on the Rolling Stones, "Up and Down with the Rolling Stones" by Tony Sanchez. He might of taken some poetic license but it still gives you the best "feel" for the Stones of any book ever written on them...........Keith was in his "Errol Flynn" pirate phase during their time at Nellcote and they'd all go down to this little speed boat they had in the harbor and go out and terrorize the yachts. Anita said it was "great fun."...............Nellcote was really chaotic though and the recording of Exile on Main Street was very chaotic......................like many of the Stones albums ALL the music was NOT recorded at Nellcote. Some of the songs had been written a year or two before and may have been recorded elsewhere. Andy Johns said they had so much material it was unbelievable and much of the material was pretty diffuse and disorganized. Andy said that after they had all the material together they dilly dallied around and they dilly dallied around. At one point he and Mick and Keith got together in Los Angeles but they still didn't finish mixing the album. Keith was very addicted and he often wasn't able too or wouldn't actually put his nose to the grindstone in the studio to mix things. He'd talk about it but often wasn't there when it was time to do it. Jagger and Andy Johns ended up dubbing around trying to mix the Exile album but there was so much material the task was daunting. {This will show you how albums are done.} At one point Jagger went out to have a drink at a bar near the recording studio and happened on a black church and he liked the choir of the church and they did the back up vocals on 2 or 3 songs including Let it Loose. Jagger got some of the horns together too at that time. Eventually Andy Johns and Mick Jagger just said "fuck it" and got together 18 hours a day for four days and mixed Exile on Main Street. ..................{If you listen to the song Rocks Off there is a line which says, "fire the fucking feed" and what Jagger means by "firing the fucking feed" is staying in the studio 18 hours a day on those old reel by reel tapes and "firing the fucking feed" again and again and again......................so they mixed Exile on Main Street {and Jagger never really liked the "mix" because he thought it was "sloppy" and it was. Exile on Main Street was initially received with very mixed reviews. "Sloppy" was a word often used by critics. It was perceived to be of a lower standard than Let It Bleed and Sticky Fingers and Beggars Banquet and such...................but then later it became their "masterpiece." Go figure.
+kentucy9999 called tax avoiders nowadays
+Richard Leigh Yes. I guess Donald Trump is going to teach a course in it at the "new" Trump University.
The new Trump Center For White People Who Can't Read Good And Wanna Learn To Do Other Stuff Good Too
the mobile unit was a large green commercial van converted into a rolling mobile studio not a trailer The van was for not just the stones themselves but many stars and bands to record their famous albums on it like Led Zeppelin Fleetwood Mac and Franks Zappa and many others as well. Frank used the truck in his 2000 Motels movie and he had the van painted in green camouflage so you wouldn't see it in the scenes which is the reason why its painted green.. The truck has been decommissioned and retired and now resides in a museum in Calgary Canada
Thanks for that context. Lots of details I did not know.
Happy Birthday Dianne! I miss you and love you!
Ralphy
Great song! Love the one note at 3:18 and the pedal steel at 4:03.
Magical 🧚♀️
Fantastic photos. Thanks Giovanni! This is my favorite Stones' song.
Beautiful music
great song
Einfach stark...man kommt so richtig ins Träumen von den heftigen Zeiten der 70 er...
They are greater than the greatest thing!Long life to our RS
The beatles ...oh my..and the Stones!
there are 3 best rock bands in the world :
the Rolling Stones , the Rolling Stones and the Rolling Stones ;)
you forgot the rolling stones ...
Seriously this album is REAL. Who can listen to Sgt Peppers and the White album everyday without wanting to kill themselves, droll pop that was groundbreaking at the time now its just shit for sitting in your room quietly. This will make you feel real gritty blues.
John Lennon was the only good thing about the Beatles. McCartney is a pile of shit.
@Steve Mason The way you are trying to defend shit proves you are the biggest asshole possible. Why not tolerate other people's opinions instead of telling them to shut up? Come out of the caves and try to live like human beings.
Beatles were cornflakes. Stones were whisky.
The best years on earth
Greatest Album of all time
That time and place … absolutely epic Rolling Stones! 💋💋💋
@KeepRockin55 Good for you Matt. I'm in the same boat, just began my recovery about a year ago. I was up to 80mg. of Dilaudid/shot or over 100/mg Oxycontin. After I started putting my friends in the ground I figured it was time for me to take a different path or I'd be following them soon. You're so right, anyone can do it and it will be the best thing you've done. Nothing feels better than putting all the madness behind you and getting in touch with your feelings again. Keep the faith!
Love Kieth Richards rhythm playing guitar
Torn n Frayed is my fav. Xmas song
JUST REGULARLY FAMILY GUYS
And the BEST ROCK AND ROLL BAND EVER
R.I.P. CHARLIE WATTS ❤🙏
All such good guys and gals. Love em all.
True-though i love the beatles,-Exile is the best album ever-that & Santanas Moonflower.I found it at 13 & it took me 6mths to listen to 2nd half of Exile as i kept playing 1st half over & over,i loved it so much.There were so many great albums from that era i truly believe if introduced to 2days kids,they could almost render drugs obsolete as the intoxicating effect these sounds bring beats the high off drugs any day.After 20yrs i still get a better stone from the music than heroin or any drug
Good for you Matt...I had to end that part of life too but I keep on a Rocking & Rolling. Just as crazy but nice now because I remember everything I did the day before
Maravillosa!!!!!
One of my all-time favorite 'Stones songs,a classic !
Might be, with "Sway," the best Stones ever, right here. REAL country.
embracing 'gimme shelter'?
There is no such thing as a best Stones song ever ….in fact ever hasn't happened yet
Love it. My brother 's favorite tune
Exile on main street is actually listed as #6 in 500 greatest albums of all time according to Rolling Stone ;)
El perfecto rockcountry que no el mismo Fly burrito brothers superarían.
What a great song and video,AS LONG AS THE GUITAR PLAYS.
The absolute best
i adore this song"doctor prescribes when short supplies"its just bang on,the gram parsons influence pours out.beatifull rkid!
“Doctor prescribes drug store supplies”
Great country rock song. Gram Parsons knew it.
+Mr. Wandsworth Cat's are assholes. Tabitha the Siamese cross hissed if folk came near me in the pram in '69.
I'm no Siamese, I can assure you. Please give us another go.
Actually one of my regrets was i never knew her. She would have been a baby sitter, a second mother to me. Eastern cats can have a rep for protecting children. Mr. Wandsworth
