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.

I've never seen Je Suis Un Rock Star before. Fascinatingly bad and then this: "They'll think I'm your Dad...and you're my daughter"

yay Wild Horses, I had to vote for it because the guitarwork is just beautiful, and I enjoy it lyrically as well. I never get tired of it.

love that youtube, roger!
<3 Keith singing along...and Charlie has these funny slight faces at a few points, I guess listening to his own part...but his first reaction is almost like, 'whoa this is us?'

i'm glad! it was a tough choice bc the version they're hearing on playback doesn't include keef's lovely solo.
― all yoga attacks are fire based (rogermexico.), Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:50 (twelve years ago) link

wait why does Taylor suddenly turn around in that and say it was all Jagger, after talking about Keith in the previous quote?

great townes van zandt version of this, my second fave song on sticky fingers

When literary critics praise the uses of irony -- its capacity for warmth and tenderness -- they need to groove to "Dead Flowers."
― Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 5 April 2012 23:11 (twelve years ago) link
as much as i have forgotten about guitaring, i can always count on this.
really powerful reminder that while mccartney-type chops don't get in the way of songwriting, all you really need is a couple of cowboy chords and something to say.

I was thinking abut this in the car on the way home from work, that sticky fingers/exile and other albums that I'm not thinking of show how good the Stones were at what NOT to include on a song, when to be big and brassy, when to be silent, you know everything is so well crafted even though it always *feels* loose and off the cuff. I dunno. They have a talent for arranging, I think. Is that mostly Keef, or Mick, or all of them?
From the Hail Hail documentary I got the impression that Keef is actually a pretty good band-wrangler

surprised its not at the top ten

Despite Mick's reputation (mostly Keith's cavils) for "modernizing," he's a damn good producer.
― Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 5 April 2012 23:22 (twelve years ago) link
is that jimmy miller?
― Iago Galdston, Thursday, 5 April 2012 23:22 (twelve years ago) link
as producer Mick helmed the post-Jimmy Miller period from '74 to '80 -- as Keith himself has acknowledged several times.

due to its length, breadth and general go-for-broke ottness, "you can't always get what you want" is initially spectacular, but gets tiresome fast.
"dead flowers" is forever

This is another one I really came to love in the process of learning how to sing it. Would love it much, much more if it opened with the just the guitar and the horn. Don't mind the choir at the end but hate it at the beginning.

i really don't understand how charlie couldn't play this beat so jimmy miller had to?
― Iago Galdston, Thursday, 5 April 2012 23:27 (twelve years ago) link
as someone else mentioned, the version on Brussels '73 boot with the extended sax solo is killer
― Iago Galdston, Thursday, 5 April 2012 23:28 (twelve years ago) link
i love the choir, smart ass puncture of the sentimentality and 'wisdom' before mick has sang a word but then at the end comes back in to make the whole thing the epic it had started out mocking. it's like in that wes anderson movie when gene hackman is telling a lie and halfway thru telling it realizes it's the truth. their 'hey jude' fwiw, but so much better imo. i had it at #20.

their 'hey jude' fwiw, but so much better imo.
don't think it's any better than "hey jude", but then i don't think it's any worse. both brilliant, timeless songs, both can be a little hard to take.
