I heard Mick & Jerry saw SRV at a club in Texas and eventually helped Stevie get his career going.

Exactly what I was thinking.....they "talk the talk" but don't seem to "walk the walk" anymore.

I slapped on Slim Harpo's Shake your Hips on the end to fill up the disc. Nice complilation, although the reggae songs are a little out of place.

Back in 200?, Mojo Magazine put out an issue and the accompanying CD
was called "The Devil's Music: Keith Richard's Fave Tunes"...hand picked by Keith
as the music that influenced him...none of the RS song list is on it...
It was a great mix of Blues and old RnR...i would play it all the time at my bar...

Not that they had to be in his TOP 10...but one would think a few, at least...

_____________________________

In concert they have left more of the straight blues out in their last 25 years.

However, on ABB with Back of My Hand they show they can still put it out and pull it off more authentically than all the rest even in this day and age. Nobody did it better then, or now than them.

That real and rootsy blues number of a song is timeless.

Perhaps Mick was involved in the selection for Jukebox.

I remember in an interview once where Mick said, in response to a question by the interviewer I think about why he (on his solo records) doesn't do more blues, said that it would be enjoyable to do a cover of blues songs with the Stones or something like that. I've waited ever since for that record he hinted at. Although I love his versatility and the Stones wouldn't be anywhere close to the Stones without it, people tend to forget what a deep understanding of the blues that Mick has. It's a shame because lots of people try to play the blues, but very few sound original. That a guy from Dartford can sound authentic- even more so than Keith- is quite remarkable.

Mick does seem to channel some spirit of the crossroads
while playing Harp...always has...still does...
