The Rolling Stones. Little Queenie (Complete) live 1969

[ruffust1]

This tube of "Little Queenie" has the best small club *sound* of any '60s recordings I've ever heard. There was one of "Carol" also from the same show I think, but it seems to have disappeared. This is the way I remember bands of the '60's sounding. Straight pure over driven fat tubes! The entire building would shake. Now that's rock! Ahhhhh...those were the days!

[BIGGGY305]

wtf this sucks im not a hater or anything this sounds so horrible like a garage band that blows. im trying to not be mean but. how can people like this?

[skinupfast]

@BIGGGY305 ....because it sounds like a garage band.... raw and ready, back home to where it all started.... listen to "road runner" by the pistols- same thing..... pure rock & roll...

[TheBirdtrain]

Chuck Berry by English RnR royalty Why the hell was n't this included in the Get yer yaya's out's CD+DVD box set???

[MySweetSixties]

43 years ago ! It definitely can't be !

[Trog57]

@MySweetSixties You're right, it can't be, it was 42 years ago. Still hard to believe though

[clintonplaza]

Fellas! It was 43 years ago, (lol) find something else to mumble about instead of the cameraman. How about be glad that you live in a time period where you can LOG ON and by pressing a button watch classic clips and then upload them to your own MAC! Yikes

[C4CC]

GREAT JOB ON THE REPAIR!

[kiddyuknot]

and Berry "stole" licks and that famous technique from another

Its "my music" is bull

sure you get credit for writing lyrics and music as well you should

but remember, tv and forms of media didnt exist pre 1960 the way they do now

The blues came from africa

that doesnt mean that every person with a direct African heritage gets comped

Richards gives Chuck ALL CREDIT

HE DOESNT OWE BERRY $ ANYMORE THAN THE JAPANESE DO FOR TAKING THE AUTO AND MAKING IT BETTER ( or germany etc)

[doopil]

the best version of little queenie by anyone ever!

[asgaard636]

Such a superb performance; so horribly filmed!

[Trendmunger]

I always wonder who made cameramen like this a cameraman. This is filmed so very amateur like, you can´t see the focussed person accurate and it seems he stands in the middle of the crowd.

[mcleanartists]

Innee!?

[Trog57]

@mcleanartists yep, you're correct and he sure is!

[kscarano]

Mick at his hottest...the young days! But he still is to me.

[AllBobsAllTheTime]

"Charlie's good tonight, ain't he?"

[Trog57]

@AllBobsAllTheTime  In't he!

[PinkertonStudsworth]

Right now my hair looks like Mick Taylor's hair does in this video.

[swiggy58a]

@PinkertonStudsworth whoopty-friggin'-do!

Or so you think.

This must've been a good night! Charlie almost smiled at about the 3:22 mark!

[PinkertonStudsworth]

@swiggy58a Shut up, Dork! j/k, whatever man.

[qf400]

ok heres the deal. sure this version is on mandrax but on ya ya's this is a band that while at the top of their game can kick the shit out of a standard. there's a few , at most ,any?, interepret this song so well

[93MrAcdc]

is keith using a es gibson?

[Jarrahnut]

Great stuff!

[SuperAzza14]

slipknot is awesome!!!

[gittahfiend]

Keith's BEST guitar playing of his career!

[dermotwalker]

@gittahfiend This is why Chuck Berry crucified Richards during the tribute he organised to his hero: Berry regarded him as a interloper who stole his sound and copied his technique. All charges he was guilty of, just listen to Starfucker for probably the best example. That said, he benefited hugely from Richards worship and emulation of him, so my sympathy is limited. In the end, the punter got a better deal because of it.

[Tapiola2007]

@dermotwalker Interesting comment. Berry is a complicated cat. On the one hand, all he cared about was the money so people like Richards and the Stones playing his music would have benefitted him greatly. On the other hand, Berry's ego won't let him forget that he did define the sound of rock n roll and he felt he was never given the credit due to him. Personally, Keef merely picked up the ball and ran with it. His unique interpretation of Berry is the best there is!

[clfetter]

best watts and keith

[robin14669]

Trog57: Were did you find the video footage to complete the song= Same for Carol. Thanks.

[80sbuttrock]

Unbelievable- they were never better than during their '69 tour- the Stones started speeding their songs up little by little on each successive tour and then they got old, added brass and background singers and became "The Rolling Stones Revue" :(

[fondofrory]

@80sbuttrock They were better in 1972 ( Jagger danced better / Mick Taylor played like god and they have their own song : Brown sugar , Loving cup , Bitch , All down the line ) . They made only 2 covers : Love in vain and Bye Bye johnny but they played it on an untouchable level ..

[PinkertonStudsworth]

@80sbuttrock Amen to that! They sounded so f***ing cool when they jammed slowly like this.
