FORMER STONE MICK TAYLOR ROCKS WITH SIR MICK JAGGER

Mick Taylor and Mick Jagger in the good old days of the Rolling Stones

MORE than 35 years after he left The Rolling Stones former guitarist Mick Taylor has been reunited in the studio with Sir Mick Jagger.

Taylor, now 61, regarded by many fans as the group’s most technically gifted musician, replaced Brian Jones in 1969, shortly before the latter’s mysterious death.

He quit the band five years later after falling out with Jagger and fellow Stone Keith Richards over songwriting credits.

Now it’s emerged that Taylor was recently brought back into the fold to briefly work on a new re-mastered version of the group’s classic 1972 album Exile On Main Street, due to be released this May. Taylor arrived in the studio to provide “new guitar licks” on one of the songs, we hear.

With current guitarist Ronnie Wood, who replaced Taylor in the Seventies, having suffered well-documented personal problems of late, there have been doubts the rocker will be in good enough shape to tour with the group again without the steadying influence of ex-wife Jo.

This has prompted speculation that Taylor might be brought back into the line-up all these years on. However we are reliably told there is no prospect of him returning full-time.

The Stones had been expected to tour in 2010 but announced in January that they would not perform this year. The now portly Taylor has also had health problems but has been playing with his own band recently, including gigs in Scotland.

One promoter tells Day & Night: “He said he’d been in the studio with Mick Jagger. He was terrific on stage, although he looked like he was struggling a bit off it. But, boy, give him a guitar and he can still play.”

The article notes "we are reliably told there is no prospect of him returning full-time."
Reading between the lines, that doesn't preclude the possibility of some guest spots.

And to his credit, lately Ronnie appears to have righted the ship.

According to contactmusic.com (in other words, take this with as many grains of salt as you wish):

Jagger And Taylor Reunite In Studio

SIR MICK JAGGER and former ROLLING STONES star MICK TAYLOR have reunited in the studio - 36 years after the guitarist left the group.

Taylor joined the rockers in 1969, replacing Brian Jones in the line-up, but he left the group five years later in 1974 after allegedly falling out with Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards.

But now the musician, who was replaced by Ronnie Wood in the 1970s, has reunited with Jagger - they reportedly headed into the studio to work on a new re-mastered version of the Stones' 1972 album Exile On Main Street.

A source tells Britain's Daily Express that Taylor, who is currently touring the U.K., is providing "new guitar licks" to one of the songs on the album, adding: "He said he's been in the studio with Mick Jagger."

The album is due to be released in May, 2010.

So Mick Taylor only played on one song and Mick J. was around, "Following the River" possibly since that's the one that got new lyrics. Last we'd heard Matt Clifford had visited Mick T. with some tapes.

Portly = Fat, right ? He certainly doesn't have the genes of Mick, Keith, Bill, Charlie and Ronnie, these guys are exceptions actualy, wonder how they do it !

He certainly has the talent as a better guitarist then Ronnie, in fact Ronnie ends up trying to imitate him when they play tracks from Taylor's era, maybe not in looks but certainly in talent.

Is Mick Taylor a better guitarist in 1974 than Ronnie was? Yes.

Is Mick Taylor a better guitarist in 2010 than Ronnie is? Yes. Barely.

And it pains me to say. I've heard Mick's recent shows and it kills me because it's just not what I like to hear him play like. I want to hear Mick Taylor from 1972. It's just not there anymore.

But he does still smoke Ronnie so take that for what you will...

Yes. I agree. But what Ronnie has that Mick doesn't, is a very youthful rock n' roll spirit. And that spirit and presence is SO important in their live shows. Keith hasn't been playing very well, but he gets away with it simply because of his strong stage presence. I believe Keith said the same thing about Chuck Berry, actually.

I don't buy that PDM. For the last 5 (?) years it's more like you can't ever get what you want. In other words, you should have said, don't you know by now, (You Can't Get No) Satisfaction?

And that, sadly, is because the one-time masters of releasing rock and roll product and producing live rock and roll shows are no longer capable of providing competent service to their devoted customer base.

I keep thinking of this in terms of the sheer economics that Jagger is supposed to be such a ('scuse me) whizz at.

How many potential C+ notes are going to go back into the wallets of people like me who will decide they don't need EXile DeluXe because the new material isn't on vinyl?

A lot, I would imagine. Enough to offset the cost of pressing, mastering, and packaging that third LP? Well, you'd think so, especially considering that it's listing for anywhere from $30 to $100 more than the Ya Ya's set, which was also 3 LPs, a DVD, a book, and two CDs. So a potential revenue stream is replaced instead by a white elephant useful ONLY to hoarders who still have to have everything and say they're grateful to whatever product the band chooses to peddle.

Rolling Stones Inc. is stupid. Mondo stupid to lose me as a customer for a fucking rerelease vinyl object. Incompetence of the highest commercial order. Somebody put this firm under new management.

I would like to note, however, that I am still on board for the 7".

i am board for the 7 inch, as well. but i cannot believe the whole enchilada is not on vinyl. i dont see me buying it, either, for this reason. i refused to bite on the ya-yas, 'cos the full sympathy still wasnt included (and i have the sacd, which i find to sound fabulous - i dont think the source material on the newest set can top that disc) plus, it seems like they are just using the audio they found when doing the dvd release of gimme shelter; if this is correct, i already have all that, in dvd-audio quality, and those acoustic tracks were out of tune (there are so many other better acoustic tunes that didnt turn up as extras on that disc). anyway, as far as exile goes, i want it all on vinyl, or i am not biting. as for the uk only track, there was a non-US bonus track from sal, too (undercover?). it will pretty easy to purchase your set that way (amazon, or the like) if you really want that last track. and in regards to the book i am missing out on, well, i got a great deal on the tarle book years ago...
