Woody and Taylor played together a few weeks ago at the 100 Club.

MT also played with The Stones in Kansas City on the '81 tour.  

Could you please explain to me the circumstances of why MT played with the stones in Kansas '81?

Thanks in advance!

Taylor was touring NA with the Alvin Lee Band at the time, and was invited to play at the December 14th show at Kemper Arena in Kansas City MO.

There's a soundboard recording of the show, but MT is kinda buried in the mix.
Apparently he was best heard through the on-stage monitors.

Thanks alot for that. I'm in shock they invited MT on stage to play with them. I did not know this.

Gives me goosebumps to think of seeing those 4 on stage together. So happy for those that were there.  stu-smiling  really?  taylor made smile  Boring post  Ouch!

Martin Elliott's review


We had good seats.  There was a picture slide show prior to the gig with Ian
photos and quotes from colleagues.  The crime writer Ian Rankin came on to
introduce the show.  Born in Fife where Ian came from he must be a Stones
fan hence the title of his compendium of short stories.


Ben Waters started the show alone and was followed by Axel Zwingenberger and
then Jools Holland with Charlie Watts, Bill Wyman and Dave Green now adding
rhythm.  Boogie-woogie was high on the agenda which you would expect from
previous gigs by the ABCD band.  Ben is in his thirties but has a huge
connection with the boogie and is very well respected.  He has performed for
HRH and at private parties for Mick Jagger plus shows with many many artists
http://www.benwaters.com/ including Shakin' Stevens and Jools Holland.  So the show
rolled along and then the hillbillies joined in - actually Don Wellor and
Willy Garnet (from Ian's band Rocket 88) on saxophone.  A very lucky Tom
Waters (10 years old) also played brass.  Hamish Maxwell performed an early
vocal (he is a UK blues singer from Dorset who has played with Waters
before) and he was followed by Mick Hucknall.  Then the roll turned to rock
as guitars by Ron Wood and Mick Taylor were added.  Despite vowing to sit
politely my rock sap rose and I went front stage right as the atmosphere
definitely heightened.  Worried Life Blues with both guitarist trading licks
and Ron on vocals was an early highlight.  Other rock and roll numbers were
played - Shake, Rattle and Roll plus You Never Can Tell with Bill on vocals
(one of his staple vocal turns).  Don't Lie To Me was sung by Shakin'
Stevens - doesn't he look like Ray Davies?  Down The Road Apiece illustrated
that Mick T and Ron's confidence was high and it struck me at how
effortlessly they worked together with smiles beaming by now from all on
stage.  Ben Waters certainly has a great integrity to harness all this music
power.  We got the highlight for me which was Little Queenie - true rock
boogie.  Some High Heel Sneakers and Can I Get A Witness.  I am not sure of
the whole setlist so apologies.


It was a gig that was unrepeatable and immense in Stones history.  It could
have been made ultra-perfect by the addition of Mick and Keith but unless it
was at the finale I fear it could have ruined a great balanced show full of
high quality musicians either being the band backbone or doing their cameo
performances.  Of course the curtain bow was spectacular as you saw Charlie,
Bill, Ronnie and Mick T all together but they did it in a reserved manner
not wishing to detract from Ben Waters and his other contributors.  If it
wasn't for Ben the whole gig would not have taken place

One of the reasons I skipped this gig (other than the fact that the cheapest seats were £50)  was because I knew Mick and Keith wouldn’t show – I cannot believe some here and on other boards even speculated that they may share a stage. A small London theatre, limited publicity… it’d take a 9/11-style disaster to get them to share a stage outside a lucrative Rolling Stones tour.

From guitarist Martyn Hope's website:

“Boogie For Stu”


...

On Stage with Rolling Stones’ legends


I was lucky enough to be asked by Shaky to join him on stage to perform with Rolling Stones legends (past and present) Ronnie Wood, Charlie Watts, Mick Taylor and Bill Wyman and the ABC&D Band.

The occasion was BOOGIE FOR STU - a charity event organised by the brilliant pianist BEN WATERS to mark the launch of his new album - a tribute to Ian Stewart, founder member of the Stones and pianist for the band. The event took place at the Ambassadors Theatre, in London’s West End.

It was a memorable night for me and such a treat to share guitar playing duties with Ronnie and Mick!  


Hope also posted a video of 'Don't Lie To Me' - www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcrY0lub9RQ

Some very nice MT fretwork...

Superb pics ! Thanks of the nice news. 
I bet: Keith and Mick that divided the same stage for NO money?
They'll need a tsunami as it was been in Japan to be together again..

But Stu deserved at least this from both... I think

Made an inquiry through Ben Waters' site regarding a possible audio/video release of these shows.

Response was that nothing's planned, "but keep an eye on the website."

Nice clips and pictures.  It was a good time with exceptional musicians.  No explosions or posturing - just good music.  The kind Stu would have liked.  I could watch these all day. Smiley  Can't stand the thought of this thread sinking to the bottom.

I like Mick T's quote - "I'm note sure they would have stayed together if Stu hadn't been there.' Imho  he's correct:they didn't.

As I (and others) have suggested the strong argument is the Stones as a "band" - as opposed to a "brand" - died with him.
