Esse Ron tem preguiça de tirar as músicas, acho até que ele saberia tocar se estudasse mais. Assim só dá saudades de Mick Taylor.

Ron Wood’s style was more suited to The Faces than the Stones. The Faces were a good time band and Wood’s more R&B style suited them. When he joined the Stones, he detracted from their dramatic power and stressed their weak points. Mick Taylor is the most exciting, guitar player I’ve ever heard and he brought out the best in the Stones. Neither has done as well since he left. Listen to Rod Stewart’s Gasoline Alley and the Stones live’72 for Wood and Taylor’s best moments.

Wayne Perkins. Cool. I never know who played what on Black and Blue. I mean, obviously, “Negrita” is Ronnie, but what about “Hot Stuff”? Is that Wayne or Harvey or Rory or Shuggie? And, yeah, I prefer ‘69 as a live year to ‘72. The tempos were more up my alley. And MT’s playing seemed more languid. Obviously, ‘72 still rocks HARD, but I listen to the boots from ‘69 more often.

Right on dude

The 1969 tour in which most of the Let it Bleed material was featured, was in my opinion, and I realize you disagree, some of the best live performances the Stones have ever done - 1972 may have been tighter, but when Keith’s barbed wire riffs are juxtaposed with Taylor melodic leads, it created a form of transcendency. BTW, most of the virtuoso turns you refer to were played by Wayne Perkins, i.e. “Hand of Fate” & “Worried About You”.

But, nonetheless, my favorite Stones tune from ‘73-’76 is unquestionably “Hey Negrita”. Monster groove, and after Keith wakes up (during the bridge) it all takes off.

Yeah, I’ve listened to those discs many times. Exile and SF are insanely good. Let It Bleed, too, but I don’t think MT played much on it. That was almost all Keith. GHS and IORR aren’t my favorites. The band seemed to be struggling with Keith’s heroin addiction and the songs don’t benefit from the sluggishness. I prefer Black And Blue where the stripped down grooves are often augmented by virtuoso turns on par with MT. I also really dig the guitars on Worried About You. And the song itself.

Well, I don’t have to be in Chicago to talk music, but when you have some free time, smoke a joint, kick back and play Let It Bleed, Exile on Main Street, Sticky Fingers (especially), Goat’s Head Soup and Its Only Rock’n Roll and then we’ll have this “conversation”. I really think you will have changed your mind by then.

Please list all of the great performances MT has chalked up since 1974. Why on Earth do you think he didn’t benefit from playing with the Stones more than they did from playing with him? Seems to me like they hit that stellar, unsurpassed groove in ‘68 and he was lucky enough to be along for the ride. But, hey, thanks for the personal attacks. Classy and super sweet. If you’re ever in Chicago, let me know. I’d love to talk Stones with you. Maybe Monk, or Mingus too.

No, my guess is that there are many other reasons that you are a moron. Plus the fact that you have not one shred of valid musical taste. To say that Mick Taylor had little influence on the artistic quality of the Stones’ music during his tenure is quite simpy one of the most idiotic things I have ever heard. You simply don’t have a fucking clue. Does this answer your question?
November 7th, 2008 at 7:25 pm
Uhhh….so, if someone prefers Ronnie to MT, they are worthless? Interesting. I prefer Ronnie’s style to MT’s. No doubt the band was at a writing/recording peak ‘68-’72, but that had (nearly) everything to do with Mick and Keith. Most of the MT inspired jams I’ve heard on studio boots from that time are pretty boring and un-Stoneslike. Also, MT’s noodling on the ‘73 tour was excessive to the point of distraction. But, I suppose I’m a moron too, because I don’t agree with you.

Mick Taylor had a profound impact on Keith as a musician - even Keith has admitted that Taylor challenged him musically and made him a better guitarist. Charlie love to play with Taylor. Taylor also co-wrote many songs on Exile, Sticky Fingers, Goat’s Head Soup and It’s Only Rock’n Roll but got no credit. You simply don’t know what you are talking about so yes do feel compelled to insult you, fucking moron.

Mick’s very talented musician even outstanding for those times, but would never become a real Stone. He was numb, dull and as complex as you. Would never become Richards’ ‘Sparing partner’ as Woody.
Richards on Taylor: “You just couldn’t look at the guy, he was sittin quiet in the corner, just like, y’know, ‘Let’s stick a cracker into his ass!’” or something alike.
In a band, the most important thing is COOPERATION not talent. And in discussion-some RESPECT. No need to be insulent to me or any

You are a moron and that unfortunately does count in the gene pool. What the fuck does “He did never fit the band” mean? You have no knowledge, insight or historical perspective and therefore your thoughts on the matter, like you, are worthless.
November 12th, 2008 at 6:52 pm
damn you, no questions about Taylor’s skills. but that DOESN’T COUNT. HE DID NEVER FIT THE BAND.
