"The Rolling Stones" Thread

[Seshmeister]

Is it just me or did Ed Sullivan look a lot like Nixon?

[FORD]

Never thought about it, but yeah he kinda did. Poor bastard

[Nickdfresh]

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.

I would say The Eagles are much more to blame for this than the Stones. Their 90's "reunion" started the trend of over the $100 concert ticket (what the market will bear for our aging hippies with money fanbase) bullshit...

It's the Brill Cream and shoe polish dye hair additive...

So did this guy:

[Seshmeister]

Stating the obvious and also don't want to politicize this thread but it did occur to me to check the ages of a few folk when this was recorded because it looks so old.

Roth: 11
Biden: 22
Trump: 19

[FORD]

Yeah.... and FORD wouldn't be around until about 17 months after that... and fuck knows I'm feeling old these days.

[FORD]

This must have been from Woody's crackhead phase.... don't know what the fuck he' s mumbling here. Keef & Charlie sound great though.....

[Jérôme Frenchise]

Just come across this. Maybe it's already been posted here, but I don't think so, though it was posted in 2014 on youtube.

Recorded during the Sticky Fingers sessions at Olympic Studios, in October 1970.

All guitars are said to be played by Mick Taylor, so Keith didn't play.

[FORD]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I posted that one before, but thanks to Google's censorship bot, I've probably had to repost half the songs in this thread at least once. Great song... another example of Mick Taylor's best work (in the studio) ending up on the cutting room floor, so to speak. Obviously Jagger wasn't finished with the lyrics yet, but even in this "jam session" state, they probably should have included it in that last Sticky Fingers superdeluxe remaster at least.
