axlslash Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Keith got 3 songs instead of 2 - Mick's clearly not 100% yet, but glad to see the boys back at it.Hope they come to the US again soon (and that the market is still saturated from last time so ticket prices will drop...fat fucking chance) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Out of Control is my favourite Stones song from the post-Wyman era. Do not like Silver Train. It sounds like Status Quo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_shaggy_ Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 As I said, it reminds me of Status Quo. B-sidey Chuck derived pub rock. I love that album as well, Goats Head Soup, but Silver Train and Star Fucker are definite turds.I agree with your view of Silver Train but I have to give it a bit of leeway seeing as (I think) it originates from their golden period (68-72) of song writing. I did like it at first but repeated listens didn't do anything for me - perhaps it's a once in a blue moon kinda song.Star Star though is pretty awesome. The album version kinda sucks but it polishes up well in a live setting. I prefer to slot it in behind IORR (BILI) in playlists. I'd take SS over Coming Down again anyday. I love Keef but his vocal songs suck big time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daedalus Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 (edited) Rolling Stones Saxophonist Bobby Keys Dies at 70Bobby Keys, the saxophonist who played on some of the Rolling Stones‘ biggest and best songs, has died. He was 70 years old. He had been fighting cirrhosis, according to the Nashville Scene.The musician was born in Texas, and by the time he turned 16, he was touring with Buddy Holly and Bobby Vee. He first met the Stones in 1964, but didn’t play on one of their albums until five years later, when he was one of the musicians brought in to flesh out ‘Let It Bleed.’ He and Keith Richards formed a strong relationship from the start. They even shared a birthdate: Dec. 18.He played on every Stones album up until 1974′s ‘It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll,’ and then from 1980′s ‘Emotional Rescue’ through their most recent record, 2005′s ‘A Bigger Bang.’ He joined the band’s 1970 tour and was a familiar presence at their shows all the way up until a couple months ago, when he had to drop out of the group’s current tour for medical reasons.While Keys has performed on many songs throughout his 50-plus year career (including, reportedly, the uncredited solo on Dion’s 1961 classic ‘The Wanderer’), it was the Stones tracks that made him an unofficial longtime member of the band. His sax can be heard on cuts like ‘Brown Sugar,’ ‘Can’t You Hear Me Knocking’ and ‘Happy,’ among many others.Keys’ extensive discography also includes songs by Eric Clapton, Joe Cocker, George Harrison, Lynyrd Skynyrd and John Lennon (a heavy drinker, Keys was part of Lennon’s notorious Lost Weekend). According to the Nashville Scene, he also led his own group, Bobby Keys and the Suffering Bastards, which was based in Tennessee.http://ultimateclassicrock.com/bobby-keys-dies/R.I.P.

Powerage5 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Holy shit - talk about a surprise. Being a saxophonist myself, Bobby was one of my biggest influences on the rock end of the spectrum. RIP Bobby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlslash Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Keys is just a step below the Big Man for me on the rock n' roll sax list. With them gone, we're pretty much left with Ed Manion....too bad. RIP Bobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
