I really think this whole solo sounds alot like Santana. Best thing I heard Mick play in my opinion was the slide solo for Love in Vain. Various live renditions
lol… yea… only the most successful touring band of all time and still selling out stadiums in 2024. Some Girls, Tattoo You, Emotional Rescue, Steel Wheels, and even Voodoo Lounge were all great albums. MT walked into the Stones when they were at their creative best - it had almost nothing to do with him as evidenced by Beggars and Jumpin Jack. That said, yes, MT was a superb guitar player that elevated the Stones sound. But the Mick Taylor fanboys that think the Stones success was because of MT are delusional and insufferable .
This was about a year before Mick stole the show at Glastonbury with the Stones. Mick and Keith ought to go on bended knees and ask him to rejoin the band.
Мик Тейлор великий гитарист, один из лучших в мире, но все же я думаю, что для роллинг стоунз Рони Вуд подходит больше. Почему они в свое время не включили в свой состав Джеффа Бека? Вовсе не потому, что он менее виртуоз чем Рони Вуд. Но Рони больше подходит к Стоунз, чем Бек и Тейлор. Все последующие альбомы Стоунз тому свидетельство
The greatest mistake the Stones ever made was not doing WHATEVER IT TOOK, to keep Mick Taylor in the band. For starters, they could have PAID him. He was given no credits on SEVERAL albums---in other words, no residuals. In addition, his mates should have helped him with drug addiction and got him the help he needed to stay with the band. They did not... With all due respect to Keith Richards---on Mick Taylor's WORSE DAY, Keef couldn't hold a candle to him. Make no mistake, Keith Richards is a very good guitarist. Mick Taylor is a GREAT guitarist. A guitar genius. Right up there with Hendrix, Clapton, and Santana. No doubt about it. The five albums he produced with the Stones from '69-'74 are all classics. The band was never the same after 1974.
Clapton , Santana are 20, 21st. Probably, he's with Brian May, David Gilmore, Prince , Ry Cooder, Charlie Sexton , Larry Campbell Knopfler, and 15 others

Haven't seen Mick since he was a kid playing with Mayall at U of Manitoba in Winnipeg sometime in the sixties. No one is a kid anymore but he still has the chops
I saw this musician four times in two days. 1969 at the Chicago Amphitheatre. front center both Micks about 10 to 15 feet away. He quit the band since he was getting addicted to smack. I love his playing on ::"Can't you hear me Knockin" Alternate. His tone is gorgeous.
