Best Rock n Roll album ever by the coolest band ever. No other band comes near in having that perfect line up that is Mick, Keith, Charlie and Bill. Ronnie, Taylor and Brian added their individual flavour as well.
Yeah it definitely helps when you have a nice cushion of money to fall back on. Not only was he most likely getting good, clean, pure dope, but there’s also the well documented blood transfusions that helped tremendously with the withdrawals. I mean, if you’re going to be a junkie, it helps to get rich first.
No amazing at all. Opiates aren't that harmfull, the lifestyle can be though. We have old folk homes for harddrug users in my country, they live as long as you and me.
Mick swore he'd blow the whole "Faul" hoax sky-high the first time The Beatles released a shitty album. But they wouldn't release a shitty album. And just to cope, young Keith Richards turned to drugs.
He is one of the reasons why my father went to uk. Hahah we got an album of him an original that phonograph record before that big cd like record disc so as chakakhan and bgees etc, reason why he is the only lead vocal that i known the name, he’s an intl legend
I’ve been a huge stones fan for decades. I’m embarrassed to admit that I never realized exile is a double album. It’s such a great album. One of the few albums I can listen to from start to finish without skipping a song.
I'd add Charlie Watts as Nicky Hopkins and Mick Taylor too in this era in particular. Together with Beggars Banquet and Let it Bleed my fav Stones album.
@@michelvondenhoff9673 It's not like Mick was just the savvy businessman, he deserves more credit than that. Keith, Charlie and Mick is the magic trio the Stones I believe. Taylor was maybe the best _technical_ guitar player they ever had, but the way Keith and Ronnie can weave rythm and lead is just out of this world. And of course Let it Bleed is their best album indeed 😉
Yeah Mike has a good business acumen because The Stones got ripped off by Allen Klein and Mike went to the London school of economics to become a Keynesian economist.
Mick Jagger impersonating "Mick Jagger as fantasized in 1972". He's a healthy cautious clever cat in the rock business. His genius lies in the "make believe" too. Nick Kent painted a vivid picture of him in The Dark Stuff.
They were all whacked out on heroin in the South of France during the recording of Exile on Main Street. So the party continued on for a while for a few of the Stones, Keith supposedly quit H in the late 70s I believe after the Some Girls album 1977/78. Mick Taylor quit the band in 74 to get away from the madness. Gram Parsons who was Keith's partner in crime died of a morphine overdose in 73 and their great producer Jimmy Miller ruined his career with heroin. He produced the stones greatest work from 1968-1973. He was basically washed up by 1974 and dead by 1994, liver failure. That exile on main Street sessions in Nellcote France and loads of heroin in 1971-72 claimed alot of victims . Some just took a lot longer to die. Even Andy John's and Bobby Keys developed problems!!! Even the always solid rock of reliability Charlie Watts got hooked on heroin and speed in 1983 . Lasting through 1986.. crazy session in France that it's tentacles messed people up for decades .
Marianne faithful Mick jaggers ex girlfriend was dating a heroin dealer and he was the one who sold the heroin to Morrison in Paris in July 71. She told the story a few times it's on you tube somewhere
@@robertparker4833 No, the album 🙂. To me it sounds rushed and half finished. I just don't like the style of the songs. I think Beggars Banquet, Sticky Fingers and Let it Bleed are three of the best back to back albums from any band and I love them dearly. Exile, I could just never get into.
Agreed, RP. Exile is a masterpiece. I recently saw a film on Aretha, where she sang with a gospel choir in an LA church, 1971. Jagger & Watts sneak in and grab a seat in the back pew. Mick gets right into the performance, stands up starts dancing & clapping along. That church performance is when & where much of Exile was born.
It's amazing, th power of suggestion in these comments, on any similar channels.. Someone says they must b stoned or coked up, so hey, then everyone all of a sudden agrees it must b so. In all fairness, those guys were drugged a LOT less often than what people like to speculate, as cn readily b confirmed in many magazine interviews, tv interviews etc etc, yrs later. Also, it's more than a little insulting when people (who admittedly enjoy doing drugs) insist that those who don't agree that th artists are high must just be tuned out, out of th loop, unaware etc etc etc etc..... Such a played_out claim, tiring.
Well since you said “in all fairness”, it’s more than a bit obvious that in these two clips (Mick in ‘72, Keith in ‘74), they were both indeed high on their respective kicks. They weren’t exactly trying to hide it. The thing is, so what? It was the 70’s. The golden age of drug culture. They’re the Rolling Stones, not that it made them any more or less synonymous with getting loaded than any other big name rock band of the era. It was par for the course back then if you were a rock star. They had the money to afford the lifestyle, they were still relatively young enough to get away with it, and they already had the ‘bad boy’ stigma (though by the mid 70’s it had lost most of its edge), so why not. However I agree, pointing it out is a bit redundant, and there were plenty of other bands/musicians back then who were far more ‘drugged out’ than Mick and Keith. No need to drop names. It was a decadent era.
I'm from Detroit (blow the reveille)! I agree ppl tend to focus on their drug intake to the point where it overshadows the AMAZING SONGS they were creating at the time. A couple things that make them different than other _'Rock-Stars-on-drugs':_ (Keef specifically) - it never seemed to have a negative effect on his ability to write 'n play. (live) - he didn't make any excuses or regrets atf. *ROX ON!* - Dave B.
It's a ruse. Mick is an entertainer and actor. He would 🏃♂️ daily, several miles a day, yoga, eat healthy. Just a performance put on, dizty, aloof, contrived. Read the biographies. Mick loves to be in control, power and money.
I’m pretty sure the Mick segment here was done just after wrapping up recording on Exile, so ‘72. The most commonly acknowledged year for the “punk explosion” is ‘77, even if punk did actually begin to take root a bit earlier. So in other words, this wouldn’t be a year before punk blew up big. More like 5 years prior. I think the “new generation” being discussed here is the glam rock movement. Hence the mention of Marc Bolan.
@@Shikta-poobah67 I was a punk in 1976, a few of us about, listening to New York Dolls and Iggy, and fighting Teddy Boys. 77 was when it hit big but with it came the kind of punks who had silver razor blade necklaces and gold safety pins as the designers got in on the whole thing. We used to wear bin liners and make our own bondage trousers.
Talking about 'Exile on Main Street' and no one's heard it yet - hilarious! It was probably their last truly epic album also. After that, they got more refined, whatever you want to say about it. It's ironic how everyone thinks about how much bands party, but the work these guys put in to record and tour is pretty intimidating. This reporter has to go for the stab like usual. I got into the Stones at 15 years old in the early 1980s and didn't care what age they were, so the interviewer thinking the Stones can't appeal to new teenagers is idiotic, since it's prob still happening today, even if at a lesser extent.
I used to love The Stones when I was younger (when they were younger too) and I had a lot of respect for Mick and Keith. Not so much anymore. I still like Brian. And Bill and Charlie, but not Mick and Keith anymore. I don't know why but they kind of repulse me now.😒
Is it even possible to interview someone higher than that...and all the accommodating whispering questions. G-d forbid the interviewer would have suddenly shouted, 'Keith!'
The famous story of Keith's interview is that he was completely fucked and no one could wake him up. This interview was after hours and he still looks high.
He means the mobile recording van they had parked outside the house, the cables taking the signal from inside the house, Charlie and Bill in the basement etc.
the stones had a mobile recording studio. Its referenced in Smoke on the Water, lake Geneva to make records with the mobile, And later in the song we ended up at the grand hotel, the rolling truck stones parked just outside@@rikurodriguesneto6043
I grew up with the Stones and in 60 years, I've never heard Jagger say anything of substance. Richards, on the other hand, can be smacked out into next week, yet there's substance to every utterance.
keith had the worst teeth at the time. he must have gotten implants at some point. yeah, mick does mick well. like to read NIck Kent's the Dark Stuff and see what he came up with.
![Mick Jagger (Rolling Stones) - Interview/"Gimme Shelter" 1973 [Reelin' In The Years Archives]](/img/n.gif)
Look at Keith’s eyes! Holy moly, definitely smacked up for this one folks.
This would definitely be prime time for his H habit. 1974. He was deep into the brown.
And yet perfectly articulate, remembering all the folks he jammed with at Ronnie's 😅
@@glynjones7158Keith always lit up and was articulate about music no matter how wasted he was
Yeah a good thing he gave it up a few years later even for Keith it would probably end up claiming him.
He didn't kick dope until the 80s
One of the more down to earth interviews I've seen from this era. He's not in tour mode yet.
Micks interview is from 1972 for Exile. Keiths interview is from 1974 for IORR.
Best Rock n Roll album ever by the coolest band ever. No other band comes near in having that perfect line up that is Mick, Keith, Charlie and Bill. Ronnie, Taylor and Brian added their individual flavour as well.
Mick is very sharp and got his eye on the ball.
Its amazing that Keef survived that period. Think because he received pharmaceutical clean stuff.
Yeah it definitely helps when you have a nice cushion of money to fall back on.
