“What rap did that was impressive was to show there are so many tone-deaf people out there,” he says. “All they need is a drum beat and somebody yelling over it and they’re happy. There’s an enormous market for people who can’t tell one note from another.” - Keef

Taken from the Stones segment on Tony Palmer's  'All you Need is Love - the Story of Popular Music' series which was first broadcast in 1977.

Weirdly, theres no actual live music from the Fort Collins gig featured in the show.

You can see Elton walking onstage with them at the start. This was the infamous gig where after persuading the Stones to let him sit on on the opening song (Honky Tonk Women) he then decided that he wanted to do so for the rest of the gig and had to be 'persuaded' to leave.

Elton would have been recording an album ('Rock Of The Westies') in Colorado around that time at Caribou Studios, which is probably why he ended up backstage at a Stones gig in Fort Collins.
