Sit back, relax, and enjoy...the entire album.

One of the best 5 live concert albums ever?



(The Youtube ads are so damned annoying, though. Too bad.)

Ublock or any ad-blocker will fix that for you. That said, I use Spotify for all my online music playing these days. It's cheap and the audio quality is just so much better than YouTube.

OK, thanks much, I did not know that, for Youtube.

Yes, I only started using Spotify about 3 months ago...I agree that it is so much better than Youtube (and I was only using the free, limited version of Spotify at that). Then my computer died completely two weeks ago, I had to buy a new one, and have not yet downloaded Spotify onto this new one. I do like them.

Can one copy/paste music videos from Spotify, like we are doing from Youtube? I don't remember now.

Right-click the song/album -> Share -> Copy Album/Song Link.


FWIW, be sure to download Ublock Origin by Raymond Hill, there's some other version out there that's not the real thing.

Mick Taylor did an amazing job with the Stones, he should have a more consistent solo career.

I've tried linking songs via Spotify before and it didn't work properly for some reason.

I'm a huge Mick Taylor fan too, ever since I first heard Sticky Fingers. The outro solo on Sway in particular is a masterpiece.

+ 1 for the Mick Taylor love.

Oh yes, Mick Taylor.

His solo stuff (Little Red Rooster, etc.) is so great. What a guitarist, musician, and what a great attitude. A true pro.

Even with the friction/different attitudes between him and the Stones, he did influence them incredibly I think, with his skills, intelligence, class, and professionalism.

This Stones concert, from Glastonbury on June 29, 2013, is great for more than several reasons I think:
1) The video, audio, stage, and audience quality are all superb.
2) The band is so tight, on fire. Their collective enthusiasm is so honest, very infectious.
3) On this night, Watts is 72; Jagger is 69 (70 minus 3 days); Richards is 69; Wood is 66; Taylor is 64...and they all play like they are under 25!
4) The respect the others show to Taylor during his (too few) songs is palpable, really really great.
5) The joking by Bobby Keys (RIP) on "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" (song starts at 39:40, sax shenanigans start at 43:09), where Keys keeps doing a couple more sax solos just to "deny" Taylor his own guitar solo, is really great, all in fun. Jagger, Richards, Wood all ask Keys to let Taylor have hos moment, and Keys is all ... "nah, I think I'll keep going for awhile!". Wonderful smirk by BK with Ronnie Wood when BK finally does hand it off to Taylor at 45:32.
6 to infinity) It's the Rolling Stones, live on stage, with Mick Taylor (and Lisa Fischer)!

Excuse my enthusiasm, but it just doesn't get any better than that. 2 hours and 15 minutes long...and worth every second.

Agree 1 zillion percent.

I think he was more consistent than he was appreciated, maybe? He did try a lot of new things, and I think that's commendable. He just never got the full press love as a soloist, maybe? That's OK too.
