@@Daniel19gs The Stones made the Beatles look like kids. The Stones stuff is timeless. The Beatles stuff is drifting away like Elvis... They Stones music will still be played in 100 years.
Love Mic from the beginning of my love of music! I love the way he jams, dances, talks and most of all his personality that shines through his Music! I'm 60 so I've followed Mic my entire life and I love him! We all get old but he gets better and better... Love you Mic ♥
@@edwardmontalbano4683 ... were also geniuses but can't honestly be compared. They stopped at the brink of the 70s. Just when the Stones about to hit their peak and put out four brilliant records in a row. Today it might seem like a slight difference but I feel many people forget how fast music was changing back then. I'd be thrilled to hear what the Beatles would have done in the 70s but alas we never got to hear it. I can enjoy both bands immensely, but for me rock needs to be dirty. And there ain't no one that could make it sound as dirty as late 60s/70s Stones. That's just me though ;)
Probably their greatest "come from behind" victory was the Some Girls album. Punk rock was about to cast them onto the ash heap of history when they showed their grit and rose to the challenge of younger, noisier rockers. Got to admire their drive to stay on top for so long.
@ Robert....to me Some Girls was an album where the Stones came full circle. It was music that was getting back to their roots or early years as a driving rock 'n roll band, not so much a blues band. Probably my most favorite record.
Agree totally...they were getting Willy wonky on Black n Blue....Some girls has been in all of my cars for 40 years...I pop it in when I need to return to world that's long past
eight inches. They were originally a 'Rhythm & Blues' Band !! with roots very much in the Blues. Their 'Blue & Lonesome' album was 'full circle' & no mistake !
Saw it in Golden Colorado. It was cool. Later Mork and Mindy started and there was Mork (Robin Williams) dancing around the goal post at the collage stadium. Wow I am getting older. I used to remember the name of the place. Folsom Field. Hey not bad!
I saw the stones in june of 1966 in Cleveland, ohio. it was the paint it black aftermath tour. they were great. I saw the beatles on augest 14,1966 in Cleveland and then I saw Dylan on novermber 12,1965 at the Cleveland music hall. the 60s were great.
That's so awesome! I was born '88 and I'm still so upset I was born in the wrong decade. If I was born late 40 early 50's I would have been just the right age to experience this Era of rock music
A lot of people like Sympathy For The Devil, You Can't Always Get What You Want, Gimme Shelter, or Satisfaction as their favorites. Personally, Tumbling Dice is the most groovin', jammin' song they have. I just love it.
Overrated song imo, and the worst on EoMS ('Let it Loose' is the best song on that album btw). And 'Let it Bleed' is their most underrated, with the title track and 'Midnight Rambler' as incredible stand outs on an incredible album.
@@XxxX-wx3er These fucking Jones fans are just like Brian, shitting everywhere, trying their best to hold back what can't be held back. The Stones rolled on and so should the anti-Stones, Jones fans.
What a classic band with so much talent to be playing for so long . They must be very cool down to earth guys. Makes me think of Motorhead I had the blessing to go see them with backstage and after the show Lemmy wanted to go someplace. The backstage area was not nice or anything. I suggested a nice topless place and he liked it. Talking to him was great. He conversed like a friend and had so much of the same thinking of life the Gov. etc as I did. Not the rock star attitude even with the nickname of God. I was very very impressed with his personality and musical taste and his music and performance along with his very similar view of life. God rest his soul next to him I really think is right. The Stones can join them someday but no time soon I hope.
My fave moment is when I discovered that there was a great band playing garage blues rock in stadiums, with street level lyrics and street level attitude, played by a wild bunch of rich guys.
I’ve still got the memories. A couple years back our son Levon got us some tickets to go see the stones at Palm Desert. Magnificent show. They were a couple of other Alaskans that come down and we hung out and sampled there products. Oh yeah pop this gig is gonna be your birthday, Father’s Day, as well as Christmas LOL. I have been a stones fan since 1963 and the 19th nervous break down. We got a remember them while they are here not after they are gone!
The Rolling Stones put on a free concert with AC DC in Toronto to help the city recover after the SARS virus shut the city down. It was the biggest concert I have ever been to.
The 1st time I heard the intro to "Honky tonk woman". I was walking home from school in Africa age 9, when it started blasting out from an old fashioned valve radio that was being tested by a street side radio repairer. I have been hooked ever since.
I see the Stones 5 times in My live Miami,New York ,Fut..Lornd..FL,🇵🇷Puerto Rico,,But the most amizing moment woss the Free concert in Cuba wow 🎸🇨🇺histórico,
@@charlessteenburgen They really weren't. Brian was the one who started the stones in the first place and was ill treated by Mick and Keith, especially when Andrew turned all of his attention to the glimmer twins. Plus, Brian's the one who brought the stones their unique sounds. For example, the sitar in Paint It Black, and the alto recorder in Ruby Tuesday. By the way, Ruby Tuesday was a song Brian and Keith were working on to begin with, but then Mick stepped in and basically took over Brian's spot, which resulted in it being a Jaggers Richards composition.
I was born 1958, many things have changed in my life, but there are a few things which will never change, one of them is my love for The Rolling Stones since the first time I`ve ever heard them when I was 12
My favourite Stones moment was when a fan climbed onto the stage, then Keith took off his guitar, beat the fan with the guitar, then put it back on and continued playing. watch?v=dv1bM0pp_o4
That show in Texas 1978 from the Some Girls tour is my favorite concert of all time. They play fast and hard and even though Mick is off and ad libs for most of it, that makes it sound so much more real. I love "true live" albums as opposed to the usual compilations of live tracks made to play like one show.
Ethan Perry The Some Girls Tour was my favorite. I saw it and I'll never forget when they played Sweet little Sixteen. They blew the roof off the mother! ! ! ! !
My favorite moment was a bootleg from Leeds circa '71 (Get Your Leeds Lungs Out), seeing them on the tour for the blah Voodoo Lounge album at Meadowlands, NJ circa '96? And seeing them as a kid on SNL, with Mick talking to Tom Snyder (Dan Ackroyd) about the joys of a neighborhood barbeque with Rod and Babs (?) Stewart. I think someone French kissed Woody (Ron Woods, the painter) when they played a song from Some Girls, the most underrated of their best albums. Thanks guys for a million great moments over the past 90 years👄
My mom saw Rolling Stones in the early 80s in Houston before I was born. And even though she's black, she thought it was a awesome and this from a woman who grew listening to Earth,Wind & Fire and Parliament Phunkidelic. Also while I was watching this, my 2 1/2 year was dancing to their songs lol.
IDK about that. Im the biggest Stones fan on the planet, and Charley and Bill are great. But the best rhythm section ever was John Entwistle and Keith Moon from the Who
Seen them about six or seven times, the first in Chicago at Soldiers' Field in 1978. The best moment was in Rockford, Illinois on Oct 1, 1981 when they played the tiny Metro Centre (8,600 fans) and Keith handed me a Beck's Beer. I still have the empty bottle.
i am a musician and 2 bands got me into music the stones and the beatles, and i have to say i love them both , but i gotta admit i have a little bit more respect to the stones , just for thelove for the stage they have, so much fucking years and still performing , they will die playing and that is just so inspiring for me
Ya know, Lili, Keith is really a pretty deep , thoughtful guy , regardless of all the hackneyed drink & drug ' jokes'.Tons of great stories in the book, as you know. He's funny, too.
Once someone asked me why the Rolling Stones didn’t have a Hollywood walk of fame star, to which I told him that we don’t want tourists to step on our favourite band!
Another cool moment... When The Rolling Stones played The Superbowl half time show. The band was approached with the idea of playing with a prerecorded backing track. Keith Richards' response - "**** that, I'm playing." No ultra elaborate sets, no dozens of background dancers, just stripped down, bare bones, down and dirty rock and roll.
Well, they are my favorite band of all time, with more great songs than I can remember. But I would say the 72' tour after the release of "Exile On Mainstreet." Mick Taylor on Guitar. That was the peak.
There was this one moment where Tina turner comes up on stage and sings Brown sugar with Mick jagger that was extremely visceral and just a deadly combination
Ian Stewart wasn't just a road manager and studio keyboard player. He played on just about every tour they ever did until his death. No recording was released on an LP without the approval of Stewart.
Forgot to mention that I've been a fan since 1965 and visited each tour from 1970 - 1996 (Sheffield, Muenchen, Frankfurt, Knebworth....). Their late Blues album was a delightful highlight, to me the first enjoyable LP since 'Goat's Head Soup'.
The Stones were at their pinnacle during the 1972 American tour promoting Exile on Main Street. Mick Taylor made em the best rock and roll band. When he left they became somewhat poppish.
