Heatbreaker, Beast Of Burden & Slave so far on Cold Case.....
Awaiting So Divine......

I just finished watching the Cold Case, NICe selection of songs! What happened to the So Divine in it's entirety?

Yes, a bit of a let down. Having Winter @ the end made up for it.

So, Nelly and I are the only ones who watched? I was looking forward to reading comments this morning. Although I am familar with the show it's not one I've watched in a few years. I thought it was really well done and was very pleased with the song selection. I did think it was kind of weird how all the songs really stood out in the sceens except for the new single which seemed to be more in back of the dialog and action. I would have thought they would have wanted to showcase it more. Undercover was also used.

You'd think if they were going to lie about Taylor's contribution to this project, they'd at least get their stories to match up and do it properly.

Keith says Taylor had nothing to do with it, Jagger and Was are non-committal, and Taylor says he played on one song.

Why all the secrecy and denial for fucks sake?

Pathetic and embarrassing.

I'm guessing they still think it's 1972, especially Keith, and that he can trash anyone...bottom line is he must hate to admit that these simple guitar lines on PMS are the best guitar that's been on a Stones record since...Wachtel played on SOM for sure, and before that, dunno. Keith became lazy/sloppy after MT left and Ronnie while pretty competent at first completely lost it after UC. For all the talk of "weaving" it's really been downhill, oh well

My money is on the probability that Jagger never told Keith.
And Keith hasn't listened to PMS yet. At least not closely.

It is completely crazy that Keith wouldn't know by now.

You may be right, despite Keith's account a few months ago of them going through all these tapes together and going "Did we really do THIS?", etc.

If it does turn out that Keith wasn't informed, will this become the fodder for some Stonesian drama in the media?
I have no idea myself, but it seems that whatever the drama coming from the Stones camp is, it seems to turn to gold for them.

No such thing as bad publicity for The Rolling Stones?

Loving the new ADTL outtake. I was sure I would be dead and buried before official releases of outtakes from their glory years started to happen.

It's Keith fantasy ... When he says he didn't want to tamper too much with the outtakes out of a sense of preserving their "basement quality," what he really means is he barely lifted a finger throughout the project and that Mick(s) did all the work.

Apologies if this has been noted earlier, but did anyone else catch this quote from Keith in the latest Guitar World about Taylor supposedly playing on the new tracks? "That's a rumor, babe. If he was on there, I would know. We've had no contact with Mick for a long time."

Is it possible that this is the London Astoria gig all over again?

Or—equally possible, in my view—is Keith that disconnected from the other Mick?

Just playing devil's advocate here. He did say 'we' i.e. the band on an official level. This could simply be Keith stating Ronnie is still in the band in a very left handed way. Saying it without saying it.

Funny thing is I'm not so sure Keith is on 'Plundered My Soul'.
[quote]

I suspected that the first time I heard it. During that era, Keith was too dominant a player not to be heard. PMS sounds like pure Jagger to me. Keith used bluesier chords, whereas, Jagger tended to like those minor 7 chords, the prettier, more soulful chords........
This sounds like a Jagger/Taylor thing to me......and maybe that's why Jagger called on MT to put the finishing touches on it.
Perhaps Keith was too busy sitting in coconut trees.

Rolling Stones high on Main Street

May 4, 2010, 12:27 GMT

Sir Mick Jagger insists the Rolling Stones were still able to make music despite taking drugs.

The frontman admits there was a "party atmosphere" surrounding the recording of the group's iconic 1972 LP 'Exile on Main Street' but claims they had frequent moments of lucidity when they were able to focus on the album.

He said: "That was a period of time when everyone took loads of drugs, it was very fashionable, but I mean, we did a lot of hard work as well, so it was a bit of a party atmosphere, loads of visitors, you know, there was a lot of drugs floating around, but not everyone was completely out of it all the time and we did a lot of good tracks, you know."

Despite acknowledging the substance abuse within the band - also comprised at the time of Charlie Watts, Bill Wyman, Mick Taylor and Keith Richards - Jagger claims they never discussed their drug use with one another.

He added to Absolute Radio DJ Christian O'Connell: "I don't remember how bad it was. Drug taking tends to be kind of semi-secretive for a lot of people, so you don't ever really know, and it's not a sort of breakfast question, 'How much heroin did you take? Oh did you? Oh I only took, you know, five milligrams.' "

Here's a bit of the interview. Mick tries to guess the Stones songs. - http://player.absoluteradio.co.uk/core/player/?rolled&service=abr&podcastid=1278...

He played 'Rocks Off', 'Plundered My Soul', 'Tumbling Dice', 'Around & Around' (there was also a feature about the new TAMI Show re-release, with a few songs included by some of the artists on that bill)

There were also a couple of voice overs, including one by Keith.

Also played a cover of 'Brown Sugar' by Little Richard.
