There's an X factor here at play. When Charlie and Bill were in sync (and they usually were) there was no stopping it. Especially when they were in rocking mode.
Oh yeah...............I like it..........

Paint it black.

I hate how Darryl never plays that slide thing at the end like Wyman did.

Perhaps he was busy in his hotel room with other, more pressing activities. Someone had to entertain the cheerleaders. And I'm sure they brought much cheer to Bill's weary soul.

I am really surprised everyone forgot Jumpin Jack Flash. The song is supposedly built from a bass line. In fact, rumor has it Bill wrote it. I don't think he wrote it all if he really did write some of it.

Great bass in that one.


Now that my friends, is a 100% bon-a-fide certifiable Rolling Stones bass groove.

Bill Wyman And The Rhythm Kings at ECHO Arena
Jul 15 2008 by Samantha Parker, Liverpool Echo

HE was once one fifth of one of the most famous bands in the world and last night Bill Wyman (pictured) proved he could still pull a crowd.

The bassist took a back seat role and let the Rhythm Kings with special guests Albert Lee and Dr Hook frontman Dennis Locorriere raise the roof of the ECHO Arena with a 20-song set.

He did, however, surprise the audience with a Rolling Stones favourite, Honky Tonk Women, and a Chuck Berry classic, You Never Can Tell. Both songs had members of the audience up on their feet dancing away.

Stepping up to the mic before singing the Stone’s classic, he said to the crowd: “We (The Rolling Stones) were the first non Merseyside band to play The Cavern.

“We always got a good reaction out of Liverpool crowds and so, just this once, we’ll do A Stones version – but just this once.”

The air in the ECHO Arena was electric despite there being fewer than 3,000 people in the 10,600- seater venue, a true testament to the brilliance on stage.

The first song of the night, Motown classic, Do You Like Good Music, set the tone for the rest of the evening.

Soul singer Locorriere wowed the crowd with his sultry tones as well as his erratic dance moves.

Louisiana 1927, a reflective song based around floods which echo the disaster in New Orleans, was perfectly pitched and provided the audience with a reprieve from the energetic set.

Singer Beverly Skeete gave an amazing rendition of Nina Simone’s I Put A Spell On You as the group’s finale, before they came back with a two-song encore.

Her voice sends shivers down the spine.

A duet with Skeete and Albert Lee singing Crying In The Rain, originally sung by the Everly Brothers, was the first encore.

A beautiful and reflective song which mellowed the crowd in time for the final song, Tear It Up. Everyone was on their feet.

Bill Wyman And The Rhythm Kings were a class act, they were in tune with one another and bounced off each other.

Their enthusiasm was infectious.
