MAD POLL, LOST YER WAY – ILM Artist Poll #16 – The Rolling Stones RESULTS THREAD

Wyman credited with nothing btw

It would be hilarious if the credit actually read:

Bill Wyman - nothing

You can edit it, right?

kinda think there's too much Exile here cos I like breadth & the Stones have a lotta songs, but no biggie

Bill Wyman - sulking, brooding, handclaps

Not sure he was even invited to the studio that day. Wonder how often that happened.

Jagger's remarks about Wyman in the '95 Wenner interview are not flattering ("There's a guy who doesn't do anything")

didn't wyman write the riff for jumpin jack flash? deserves his place in r&r history for that alone.

According to biographies, Wyman was also the one who helped himself to the most groupies, by far. It was almost a compulsion, apparently.

every time I hear the story of Wyman and groupies I think of the joke about the man who fucked a four-day-old mackerel.

Man, love "19th Nervous Breakdown". My #18.

damn, if i hadn't cut it from my ballot at the last minute it might've actually come in 19th place

Don't know that joke Alfred, do I want to?

kinda think there's too much Exile here cos I like breadth & the Stones have a lotta songs, but no biggie

yeah, but it's an alltime great album with few standout hits, so it was inevitable

here comes your 19th nervous mackeral

Bill Wyman of the Rolling Stones plays bass on and co-authored "The Love Gangster" and is reported to have said that he would have left the Stones to join Manassas.

i like the idea of jagger and stills negotiating a deal whereby the stones get rid of wyman by sending manassas a mountain of cocaine

is Wyman hidden inside the mountain of cocaine or something

What, Manassas wouldn't have him?

Had 19th Nervous Breakdown up high, in my top 5 I think. One of the great 60s rock singles imo. and another great Wyman moment -- the dive bomb bass at the end! so rad.

Keef's observations on Wyman in his book are pretty funny, where he basically says the only thing that Wyman was doing with all those women on his list was drinking cups of tea

"19th nervous breakdown" is amazing and a great wyman showcase, but the unsympathetic viciousness bothers me, not a favorite

tyler beating me to the wyman defense

where he basically says the only thing that Wyman was doing with all those women on his list was drinking cups of tea

jealous

I ended up taking 19th Nervous Breakdown off, but I love it.

Guitar break after the pause...you gotta STOP...look around DANANANAAAAAAAAAA *AIR GUITAR* so good.

xpost you'd think so but the way he describes Wyman as being uptight and kinda prudish, it's more that he can't really comprehend Wyman doing anything at all with a woman, lol

like he kind of categorises Wymans as an obsessive listmaker rather than lover of women

lol i like the idea of wyman inviting a bevy of gorgeous groupies into his suite and just being like "milk or sugar, luv?"

ILM a counterexamp...oh wait

It feels so much truer to me, even if it's not

important wyman bit from his blog:
Richard asked: What's been the most interesting artefact you have uncovered so far while metal detecting and where did you find it?

Bill says: There are so many: my silver Iron Age coin from the time of Jesus’ birth, an Iron Age brooch from the 1st century AD, a gold half-noble of Edward III from 1360, a silver seal ring of the High Sheriff (Parliamentary member) of Suffolk in 1784, and a silver penny of the last Saxon King Harold II (who died fighting William the Conqueror at the Battle of Hastings in 1066). And that’s not counting my 300 or more Roman coins (some silver) mostly from the 3rd and 4th centuries BC. All were found in England in the county of Suffolk (South Folk), East Anglia.

lol Euler

has anyone been to wyman's restaurant? http://www.stickyfingers.co.uk

Bill Wyman, Numismatist

Sticky Fingers Café was aptly named in tune to the infamous album released by the band and was the concept of Bill Wyman’s idea of what kind of restaurant he enjoyed and London should have some it too.

huh?

hope you all voted for je suis un rockstar

xp he's a bass player not a sentence writer! cut him some slack!

Menu sounds pretty tasty though

looooooool

oh je suis un rockstar

it should get a vote just for lols alone, oh that video

ahh yeah that video is some shit eh?

this is crazy too

just for posterity's sake

I mean...that video, that song...It's like the 40 Year Old Virgin talking about sex

youtube comments that he's the sexiest Stone is just, this is why I hate youtube commenters lol

Would have gladly thrown "je suis un rockstar" some points if solo jams were included. It's one of the most stupid fun songs of all.

it hurts, but it's a fun pain

she took off her hat, and she had lovely hair...

SHE TOOK OFF ER AT
AND SHE AD LOVLY AIR

jinx, lol

Jagger paid attention to Wyman for the first time in years upon "Je Suis..." becoming a hit.
