This is absolute gold, Aldo! One of my favorite Stones solos…and Keith at that. Thank you for taking the time to put this together, as well as sharing it! Take care…and behave! (Love that part, lol.)
Wow what an amazing job you did. I have read that Jimmy Page commented that was his favorite and best of all Keith's leads. As a fellow subscriber mentioned, I too always thought it was Mick Taylor playing the solo. Thank you.
It’s crazy, I’ve listened to this track for many years (it’s one of my favourite Stones songs as a matter of fact) and I always thought it was Mick T playing the solo. Looking back now I feel rather silly as you can clearly tell it’s Keith it had his guitar mannerisms all over it, Taylor would have played it a lot cleaner and melodic. It’s funny because Keith is never really considered a great lead player but every now and again he would play a great solo and you’d stop and think to yourself ‘wow that was Keith playing that?’, such a brilliant guitarist! Thank you for the lesson now I have another awesome Keith solo to add to my set list :) keep up the great work man! 👍
I agree, I thought it was Mick Taylor also because the technique is actually quite good (very fluid). However, the lines themselves are very much Keith's take on Chuck Berry so it also confused me. Good to finally know I suppose? Terrific lesson Aldo as always!!
@@jamesanthony7994 I'm a huge Keith Richards addict, but I still think this might be Taylor. Taylor could do those double stops "à la" Richards. But there's quite a few bends and speedy licks that sound like Richards could only pass if very focused :-) Anyway.. still not sure.
Also... Would Keith play a D minor pentatonic scale over an F major ? That's quite typical of what Taylor does in many of his solos (for instance Wild Horses)
@@torah58 F is the minor third of the D scale. So D blues scale works, and that's what Taylor would often do. But again, it doesn't prove it's not Keith this time.
Great video man! I've heard it mistakenly credited as Mick Taylor doing the lead, thank you for clearing it up though. I swore it was Keith. Great playing too man! Ya nailed it =)
KR is a superstar rythym guitarist , a little understood role. Listen to the interplay between Mick Taylor ( a magical lead soloist ) and Keith on the live version of Sympathy for the Devil from Get your ya yas out....MAGIC
I'm going to turn you on to a little Holiday solid folks,the greatest RnR guitar solo ever recorded( and it is the cousin to this one)It's on a bootleg from the 70's of the "72 Stones Tour called "Welcome To New York" ,it's the solo on "Bye Bye Johnny".Pure RnR genius it makes the hair on my arms stand up and I get goose pimples. You can hear it for free on RU-vid where it proves Keith Richards IS Rock n Roll guitar, and everyone else is a student, period.
R 'n R! Great video man! Really enjoyed watching it, gear slutting parts are awesome! How far would you place the large membrane mic for capturing the additional "image"? Thanks! BEER!
Had good results with 30ish cm. Try both time aligning with the close mics, or phase correction but keeping the depth. Most depth is not aligning at all, but then blend in with more care not to ruin your tone.
When he was younger he handled leads the when Taylor came along he didn’t have to anymore he always wanted to be the greatest rythmn guitarist of all time
