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.

grandavis, Thursday, 5 April 2012 20:53 (twelve years ago) link

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

some dude, Thursday, 5 April 2012 20:53 (twelve years ago) link

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

grandavis, Thursday, 5 April 2012 20:54 (twelve years ago) link

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

some dude, Thursday, 5 April 2012 20:55 (twelve years ago) link

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

buzza, Thursday, 5 April 2012 20:56 (twelve years ago) link

is Wyman hidden inside the mountain of cocaine or something

You big bully, why are you hitting that little bully? (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 5 April 2012 20:56 (twelve years ago) link

What, Manassas wouldn't have him?

grandavis, Thursday, 5 April 2012 20:58 (twelve years ago) link

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

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 20:59 (twelve years ago) link

"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.

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:01 (twelve years ago) link

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

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:02 (twelve years ago) link

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

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:02 (twelve years ago) link

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

tylerw, Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:03 (twelve years ago) link

ILM a counterexamp...oh wait

Euler, Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:04 (twelve years ago) link

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

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:04 (twelve years ago) link

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.

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

tylerw, Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:11 (twelve years ago) link

Bill Wyman, Numismatist

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:12 (twelve years ago) link

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?

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:15 (twelve years ago) link

Valéry Giscard d'Staind (NickB), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:15 (twelve years ago) link

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:22 (twelve years ago) link

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.

Nanker's Away (Spectrist), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:24 (twelve years ago) link

it hurts, but it's a fun pain

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:25 (twelve years ago) link

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

Valéry Giscard d'Staind (NickB), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:28 (twelve years ago) link

a reminder:

On 2 June 1989 Wyman married 18-year-old Mandy Smith whom he had been dating since she was 13. Their relationship was the subject of considerable media attention. The marriage ended in spring 1991, although the divorce was not finalised until 1993.[16] In 1993, while Wyman was still married to Smith, Stephen, his son from his first marriage, became engaged to Smith's mother.

His son would have been his father in law.

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:30 (twelve years ago) link

It's like a sexy disco song sung by Minder's Arthur Daley ...I can't stop listening to it. Oh the lols.

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:30 (twelve years ago) link

xxpost we should have it rephrased and added as a standard SAT question

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:31 (twelve years ago) link
