"The Rolling Stones" Thread

August 1966 according to Keno's page which has the details on damn near every thing the Stones ever recorded....

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":

Never been on there until today. His album rankings are questionable. He's got Exile tied with A Bigger Bang and both of those behind Voodoo Lounge. Dirty Work is at the bottom, which I agree with.

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...

Some pretty cool images...

[FORD]

Great photos, but not a single Mick Taylor sighting??

[Jérôme Frenchise]

He was probably rehearsing all the time. You can hear it listening to Exile on Main St.

[FORD]

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?
