Another one of Mick's hilarious falsettos here.... Beast of Burden - Take One (live in the studio)

Was this take from before Keef got off the horse.... because he sounds like he's on some other planet :biggrin:

From the Dirty Work sessions... and easily better than half the songs that actually made it to that record.

Nothing stunning here... but at least it's an Undercover outtake that doesn't sound muddier than the Mississippi.
This would have been really cool with a proper vocal on it.....

Yeah.... would have been tough to record that one, since even the Edison wax cylinder hadn't been invented yet.
Think it's obvious enough why this one didn't make the album in 1964......

That's right it's dirt. Greedy Mick and his running on half a firing neuron cell butt buddy Keith are older than that
I've had it for over 25 years on a bootleg CD under the title "I can see it". The sound is much better here than on my CD.
The sleeves notes say Olympic studios, but the tune sounds more like 1966.

August 1966 according to Keno's page which has the details on damn near every thing the Stones ever recorded....
http://www.keno.org/stones_lyrics/i_can_see_it.htm
That would mean it was probably from the "Between The Buttons" sessions

To me the most interesting track in that compilation is this cover of Muddy Water's "Catfish":

Keith Richards ‘Main Offender’ (30th Anniversary Edition) featuring the previously-unreleased Keith Richards & the X-Pensive Winos “Live In London ’92” concert - available March 18: https://keithrichardsBMG.lnk.to/mo30ID
Pre-order on red vinyl, super deluxe boxset, & CD: https://keithrichardsBMG.lnk.to/mo30ID
As it's often the case in the last few Rolling Stones albums, I particularly like the reggae tune in Main Offender, "Words of Wonder".
Just like "Too Rude" in Dirty Work or "You don't have to mean it" in Bridges to Babylon (one of the only two tracks taht worth it in the latter IMO), "Words of Wonder" has the interest of being Keith music that makes reggae become catchy. Steve Jordan is at ease with that, and the bass sound is really deep and huge.
Between Talk is Cheap and Main Offender I'll always prefer the former, though, and hands down. Way more solid tracks in it, I only skip the one feturing Mick Taylor, "I could have stood you up", which to me leaves 10 tunes out of eleven, which is excellent.

Keef probably does reggae better than any other white man in history. UB40?? Not even close.

One summer in France with the Stones: Dominique Tarlé's photo diary from his six months in the French Riviera...
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...xhibition.html
Some pretty cool images...
Great photos, but not a single Mick Taylor sighting??
He was probably rehearsing all the time. You can hear it listening to Exile on Main St.;)
Yeah, but some of those rehearsals were pretty damn good themselves....

Jagger on his Instagram: "A little downtime before things get busy!"
The Roof Nightclub is in Port Antonio, Jamaica. A couple hours from Ocho Rios, which is where Keith has a place. Hmmmm?

60th anniversary/farewell concert??
... and since it's in London, Bill Wyman & Mick Taylor will be expected to show up.... assuming they're still alive by then... Wyman's gotta be in his mid 80s by now
I didn't go back too far into the thread. Those guys must skew way older than here and their posts are sometimes hard to read and decipher.
60th anniversary gig close to where everything began makes sense.
Wyman is 85. Wonder how old his current companion is...younger than Sally Wood?
Wyman has repeatedly stated he has no plans to ever play with the Stones again. As for Taylor, maybe seeing he's broke, destitute and desperate. So yeah, throw a few bucks his way.
Other than that, Mick and his dead brain cell buddy Keith should have hung it up 15 years ago. No original material since 2005, the death of Charlie and their inability to give a shit about their fans other than fleecing them. At least Schleppy knew to hang it when their drummer died. These dumb motherfuckers should take the high road and do the same. Everything must end. Everything.
It will end when the fans vote with their pocketbooks. The Rolling Stones replaces it's dead with other players. Let's say everyone is replaced with younger people and the tickets still sell then it goes on and on. Can your replace Mick or Keith? The audience decides.
Surely it has to end with Mick?
If they enjoy it and the fans do as well then why not? My only beef with the thing is the ticket pricing. There seems to be a credible argument that the greed of The Stones has had the effect of raising prices across the board by pushing up the bar all the time, normalizing what should be obscene.
