"Try these Rocky Mountain oysters."

HA!  HA!  HA!

Has no one else here nibbled nutritionally on testes?
Bitch?  Lady Jane? ...Gazza?

When I eat genitalia.....I stick to the female variety thank you very much.............

Is this all we have to talk about ?  :whydontcha

Certainly not the only thing, Edi' Gro(o)ve...
(By-the-by, to dismiss all 'disco' grooving is slightly on the silly side, shirley?)
Inbetween chin-wagging about the cost of Ronald's tickets and about the 2012 Stones (groove) revival, there's nothing too wrong about giving a nod to the subject of the band's oral aspects, I hope.
Mummies' boys the lot of them, but none the worse for that.

No, not silly.  :whydontcha

I am an indiscriminate disco-hater, and don't call me Shirley. http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s209/leepullen/people-514-leslienielsen.jpg?t=1287740861

With them horse teeth of hers, Jerry would do alot of damage to one's testicles.

I've metaphorically eaten the balls off a few people on here from time to time, but like gimmekeef, when it literally comes to genitalia I stick to the female variety.

Joey might be your man, here.

Marvellous, thanks for the tip-off / inside track.

Joey - let's chin-wag, at your convenience, about your experience(s).
To loosen you up, we could first shake our boogie bodies to the full 10 min version of 'Hey Negrita'.

By-the-by, have the 'members' of this board ever discussed what the Stoonz would have been like if Tina from Talking Heads had become their bassist (as mooted).

Furtherly by-the-by, 'Some Girls' was a splendid disc, absolutely shirley, but I do wonder what our beloved band of mummies' boys would have produced if 'punk' hadn't come along and distracted from the black & bluey grooves.

One day the 1976 Shepperton Studios rehearsal tapes will surface and even Edith will reconsider his tastes and acknowledge the Stoonz key role on the groovy dancefloor.

Anyway, get on down, all...

OK I'll bite!

Psychadelic Mushrooms can make you vomit if you eat too much of them. They must be taken in small doses. Peyote trips can be quite powerful, mind blowing and spiritual. Best taken when you can enjoy the beauty of nature.

Testicles are another story altogether. YEAH I've nibbled on them!

That was never an option. The simple explanation is that when asked about a replacement for Bill, Keith quipped that it would be ironic (knowing Bill's reputation as a serial shagger) if they replaced him with a woman.

Lazy and very stupid journalists took this a bit too literally, and Tina Weymouth, being probably the most well known bassist at the time, was the easy option for a non existent rumour.

Tina never even auditioned. Nor, as far as I know, was she ever approached for an audition.

What are these rehearsals? I googled Shepperton Studios and the Stones and only came across some 1982 rehearsals for the European Still Life tour...

She's always been a ballbreaker

Bitch - respec' re. your goolie-gnashing disclosures.

These were Knebworth rehearsal sessions, biggirlsblouse, which included, if I'm not mistaken (although I was only a youngster at the time), what must have been a 45 or 50 minute version of Under My Thumb which weaved / morphed / grooved through rock, funk, reggae, reggae dub and more. One morning Keith drove up just as everyone was leaving and the language was as black & blue as the music.

I think there was possibly slightly more to it than that, Gazza. A joke's a joke, but a joke can also be rather revealing about the band and their musings. I'm sure, for instance, that Jagger did semi-seriously consider playing bass himself once Bill pushed-off; he does indeed play bass at song-developing sessions with Keith & Chuck.
But my question does still stand : Could Tina have cut the mustard? Could she have put up with Keith's embarrassing references to her as 'the chick'? Would she have helped develop their grooves in exciting ways?
Just thoughts. Sorry.

Ok, but what does that have to do with the direction their recording career took ? Aren't you confusing this with the 45 minute version of "Jah is not Dead" that Mick played to the record execs when they asked to hear what had been recorded for Some Girls ?

Apologies, as this is a quicker.shorter version of a reply I wrote and was about to post when my comp decided to switch itself off and 'configure updates'.

I will try to explain my earlier wafflings.
Certainly Knebworth rehearsals were held at Shepperton and certainly very lengthy and rather experimental / playful versions of some tunes were played, one of which was 'Under My Thumb'. I certainly got the impression that they were all being recorded through the mixing desk, albeit onto metallic cassette tapes. It's more a wish / fantasy that they still exist, because I think it was an interesting time for the Stoonz and I would like my memories confirmed that they were - at least some of the time - being very groovy and imaginative in funky, reggae-y and jazzy ways.
Keith (who spoke on CBS on Sunday about his son's death being the worst thing that happened in his life) seemed incapable - or perhaps just unwilling - to do much more than hit ever-so-slightly-delayed smacky rhythm, which nevertheless seemed to work very well in the context of what was being played by the rest of the band, which seemed to be driven/controlled/inspired by Jagger & Preston. Ronald, of course, was up for funkiness; Chuck was honing his off-beats and such things and the Bill W could add nice understated touches to anything. Bill and Ian had the patience of autistic carers, shirley.
Anyway, what was my point? I was just sort of teasing Edith about his dismissal of all '70s dancefloor grooving, but I am fascinated sometimes when thinking baout where the Stoonz could have gone if: punk hadn't come along (and punk bands hadn't criticised the Stoonz) and Jagger hadn't naturally felt it interesting to explore puink music and also tease it; but also if Keith hadn't been - I suspecyt - so essentially conservative and also (?) jealous of Jagger & Preston's collaboration(s).

One final thought, as I've rattled too much already -- I've never, for instance, really felt that 'Miss You' has worked as well as it could do when played live, and I do wonder if things like that would have been different if the Stones' had retained a 'black' keyboardist.


Love To All

I see your point.

Yes Billy did have a nice groove and the story has it that he was there to help Mick to get "Miss You" started. I don't think I've ever read an account of how he was "uninvited" to the Paris sessions in 1977. The only comment I can remember is Keith saying he was happy to be rid of the "facile muscians"...

Thanks for your understanding, Blousey.
To continue the original theme, Richards might - at least occasionally - talk balls / have a mouth populated by, or spouting, balls.
The 'facile musicians', if he indeed said that, might have included Ollie B... who had (been allowed to) taken, at least, the 1975 live performances up a lovely (percussive) notch or two, or even three.

Anyway, in someways I think this has all been a a bit of a distraction from / a way of avoiding the nitty-gritty, of getting down (groovily) to hearing about Joey's nut-nibbling tale(s). I shall await those, and any further thoughts on the potential or realised or detoured grooviness of the Stoonz.

Yeah right!  [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]  You'll have better luck offering up some magic mushrooms on a silver platter!  

Imagine that. 120,000 people high as kites.
