  • POR FAVOR!!!! SI TE ESCUCHARIA MICK TAYLOR TE RE CONTRA CAGARIA A TROPADAS X MALTRATAR EL MEJOR SOLO DE LOS STONES, ENCIMA LE RE PIFIA LA LA ESCALA!!! WOOD SOS O---RRRIIII---BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

  • Poor Ronnie. Bless his heart. He looks so cute trying to fill Mick's shoes.

  • one day...

  • one of the best stones songs off one of their best albums.

    ron wood sucks.

  • Péssima versão de uma ótima música e super bem gravada do "Fingers". Uma vergonha Jagger a cantar de um modo tão "descartável", como se fosse uma musiqueta qualquer. E nem toda a produção live salvou, nenhum backing vocal ou solo conseguiu resgatar o sentido selvagem que esta música apresenta no disco. Bom...tudo bem...isto só acontece mesmo aos maiores. Parecem não conseguir perceber mais o ponto exato o qual não poderiam mudar uma obra sem comprometer a essência. Aconteceu até com Elvis..

  • that sucked

  • WONDERFUL, Thanks kindly..

  • SWAY

  • mick taylor needed, ronnie does'nt get it !

  • Its too bad they didn't keep Taylor around, but I think Jagger didn't want the guitars to keep getting featured. As many horns as they had on Sticky Fingers (IMO their best album, most well-rounded, cleanest recording, every song a keeper), it was a very strong guitar album with this, Bitch, Brown Sugar, Sister Morphine, etc. Listen to the stuff that followed this album: not so many solos, lots of Mick singing and IMO dumb radio fodder.

  • @Realitytourist Exile had plenty of fantastic solos on it, they are just buried in the crappy mix on the original album. Most of the later post taylor albums didn't feature solos for the simple reason that Ronnie Wood isn't 1/4 the guitarist that Mick Taylor was. I see your point though, notice how Mick cut Ronnies guitar solo in this clip? He's such an ego maniac. lol.

  • as far as i know, the stones are still rocking! w/wo mr taylor

    and yes i like ronnie,he's a rocker,simple playing and efficient but i agree with others taylor was something i like him too,i was a kid the stones were playing rock &roll and im 47 and the stones are still playing rock &roll isn't it amazing.thank you

  • I must admit that I started to watch this video with the preconception that Ronnie Wood would not do justice to Mick Taylor's guitar work in this song. However, I was right.

  • Who's that decrepit old man playing the guitar

  • There is a reason why this was not done previously live, it is Mick Taylors song. One of the few classics he never got credit for. Ron Wood is not capable of handling this song, stick to Start Me Up.

  • Brian Jones did it all...on any and all instruments!!!...Mick Taylor was great and managed to walk away on top- and alive; Ron Woods is ok...a little better than a pedestrian, lucky, sloppy & muddy Keith wannabee- just an average bassist at best on the 1st 2 Jeff Beck group albums in '67 and '68, which had the genius Nicky Hopkins, who was the best piano player ever!.

  • Take a listen to Woody's Slide On This -- probably the best Stones-related thing in 25 years.

  • I was there !

  • rockin ronnie

  • Both Wood and Keith are playing very sparsely in their "golden years". I think we won't hear them play their asses for evermore. But how futile is the comparison of this Ron wood guitar solo to the album version of Mick Taylor in his prime. Ron Wood has a treasure trove of recorded guitar genius and any music fan of classic rock would surely have their eyebrow hairs seared right off their face at the discovery of such a talent. It's all documented, just check it out.

  • Yeah, is Ronnie playing the same song as the others? I love the Stones and this is my favorite Stones song, but, this really sucks.

  • Ronnie Wood is the luckiest man on earth for joinin the Stones since 1975 he's living a life on ease and HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO PLAY A GUITAR PROPERLY HIS SOLOS SIMPLY SUCKS

  • SecretProphet....On Let It Bleed, the only songs Mick Taylor plays on are Country Honk and Live With Me...all the rest: Midnight Rambler, Monkey Man, Gimme Shelter, Love In Vain (BEAUTIFUL acoustic work, which Keith always said was the true measure of a guitarist): ALL KEITH...so, for those who say he can't play (I know you didn't say that), he's an incredibly powerful musician. He can hit you in the gut as good as anyone;but, other than the facts about Let It Bleed, I couldn't agree w/you more

  • Kieth is great he can play. Personally when I got the let it bleed albumn I thought It was unfinished! Midnight rambler sounded so much better when they got Taylor in there. As for love in vain listen to the live versions of 1972. It might be just me but I got the feeling Kieth was pushed to do even better with Taylor in there. The rolling stones were so lucky to get Mick Taylor. He made the band solid.

  • agree w/you about Mick T. And although I waiver on which of the albums from '68-'72 is the best, I seem to come back to Sticky Fingers, which, I believe, is the peak of Taylor's time w/The Stones; it was his album as much as anybody's. But, although I am not overly familiar with Taylor's solo stuff, or much of anything after the Stones (save for the Dylan lp), I gotta believe The Stones were just as good for him. It seems to me those Blues Breakers guitarists have bad instincts (Clapton lol),

  • Agree with you. Sticky fingers #1 Exile #2. Many stones fans will dissagree with me. I was a kid waiting for the follow up to exile and was amazed how the band had changed for ever with goat shead. Its only rocknroll had one hit. Jagger and Keef were well aware of Taylors Talent. They made the same mistake as other buisnesses do! Keep the talent happy! What do yall other stones fans think?

  • (cont.) The Stones always stuck, in general, with not too much instrumental overindulgence, and they stay away from the MOR (both of which Clapton is guilty of in spades)...but I know we're not discussing Clapton. But, to sum up, although all of the eras of the Stones (Jones, Taylor, Wood) have their good points, I think, like many, their best work was with Taylor...in terms of absolute peak quality...but The Brian Jones era was pretty good too

  • Keith Richards has to be the most under appreciated musician of the last half century. He and Jagger have written some of the most powerful music in modern times. I had nearly forgotten about Mick Taylor. His work on Let It Bleed has yet to be duplicated.

  • Let it bleed was great dont get me wrong. Keef was still young and he did it ..To me it sounded like a transitional period for the band. They were soon to conquer the world.

  • Wood is great.....Play it loud.

  • Who is mecormany?  Nobody.

  • que pésimo solo de wood.

    se extraña a Mick Taylor ....

  • Micks Vocals Are Still Stong on this Old Gem..Even though What We Need on this is the Hard Edged Biting Distorted chords from 1971 to Frame this Song Properly..Maybe it was Mick Taylors Les Paul>>?

  • This is a good version of this song, but any thing the Stones do now still lacks Bill Wyman. No bass player matches so perfectly with Charlie's beat like Bill Wyman. And yes, I think Mick Taylor was a much better player than Ronnie. Still, I love the Stones!

  • Mick Taylor was too much of a pretty boy. Ron Wood looks like a Rolling Stone and so does the black guy that took over for Bill Wyman.

  • You need to figure out WHO the fuck Mick Taylor is...

  • Who the fuck is Mick Taylor?

    Fucking amazing.

    Yeah, play it Ronnie, you pathetic souse.

  • Mick Taylor came out of the John Mayall school of great guitarists, such as Clapton and Peter Greene. They hired him to replace Brian Jones, but the Stone's lifestyle was killing him, so he had to quit.

  • Nice job, Mick Taylor is not missed, people get put of the 70's, Ronnie woods rocks

  • look dont wanna argue because i have no problem with r. wood but if u think the stones were a better band musically once taylor left since he didn't get the credit he deserved then u are just as drunk as ronnie is most times on stage. stones were great when taylor was hired afterwards they were the greatest.

  • I think mick taylor is a great guitarist, but keith's guitar sound shapes the stones sound. satisfaction, jj flash, sympathy, gimme shelter, all keith driven riffs. The two albums, Beggars and Let it Bleed are Keith's defining albums, before m.t. joined, they were the greatest then, but I like all the eras.

  • precisely.ROCKING RON WOOD !!

  • Comment removed

  • The hell he ain't missed. It's not a nostalgic thing or a question of era for christ sake. Taylor owns this fucking song. Wood is pathetic.

  • Taylor was fine for the 6 weeks he stuck around, but Ron and Keef are the Stones guitarists for the last how many years? I think this was early in the tour, they were still feeling their way thru (and Mick is calling cues). Other "Sway" shows on YT are really hot!

  • I think Mick Taylor is probably the best guitarist ever, but i do think Ronnie does a great job on this track. Well done!

  • sucks w/o the master.... MICK TAYLOR!

  • giantcold09 I am with you. This flat out sucks. Wood sounds like he's scared to even be playing it, which i don't blame him.

  • They should have played "too tough"

  • did you ever wake up......great song from sticky fingers.

  • que vulgaridad ni siquiera cerca de mick taylor

  • Great song.One of the best.w/o Taylor there is a lot missing

  • They NEVER should touch this song without MICK TAYLOR to play the LEAD!!!

    MLC

  • i would agree - i like richards and wood, but they totally stumble through the lead lines on this...

  • die jungs sollten das nicht weiter live spielen.

    und wenn, dann nur mit mick taylor. alles andere ist driss.

  • Richar??? donde esta? y ron.. es una falta de respeto no tocar bien ese solo. volve taylorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­r

  • charlie's drumming needs to be a bit sloppier too.....

  • ronnie really doesn't quite nail the mick taylor solo does he? never thought i'd find a live version of sway.... number one song of all time.... track two.... stickey fingers...

  • Damn, only song better on the album that live.

  • Ronnie is terrible on this version! But I love this song!

  • Wood is very funny

  • Did they do this live just to prove Mick Taylor is a genius?

  • they must have! stupidest thing they ever did was get rid of that virtuoso!

  • Did they do this live just to prove Mick Taylor is a genius?

  • OMG!!!!!!! just look at that firebird ronnie's wielding! i guess having talent and money helps xD

    apart from that...unbelievably spectacular song

  • =Did you ever wake up to find

    A day that broke up your mind

    Destroyed your notion of circular time

  • Always loved this song. I have a "Demon Life" tattoo.

  • My band plays it better than that...geez. MT is sorely missed on this one.

  • "It's just that demon life has got me in its sway."

  • Im like this tune, and i think its been a little underrated over the years.

  • Mick Taylor Should get Royalties for this song-shame on you Mick and Keef. Mick Taylor made you all work that little bit harder.

  • @demonsbutterfly you are right.

  • I really doubt the Mick'n'Mick remark below. Lines like "my friends are on the burial ground" and "she broke me up with a corner of her smile" are classic KR lyrics. Have to agree though that when MickT was in the Stones they were at their best, no doubt.

  • creo que como aporte para la composicion taylor fue vita, y se hicieron los mejores discos de los stones ocn el, pero la dupla keith ronnie no la cambio por nada del mundo

  • This should've been the closing song for the Sopranos.

    Valkyrie Sieg Mourne

  • hey guy change URGENTLY of guitar teacher!

  • my guitar teacher Don Ulp was there too and he said it was brilliant! i think this video is awesome!

  • i miss the hey, heeey, heeeeeey noooow part... it gives me goosebumps each time.. =)

  • Try to find Mick Taylor and Carla Olson live version of Sway. Then listen to Ronnie again... And cry in despair.

  • It is interesting that for all the credit Keef gets, its hard to deny that the best Stones period was when Mick Taylor was with them. I mean, Keith was a freakin' junky when they were making Exile. I do love Keith, but... this doesn't hold a candle to the Sticky Fingers version.

  • Mick Taylor Era is the most musical. Mick Taylor is awesome.

  • MICK TAYLOR WE MISS YOU !!!

  • Yeah, sadly Mick > Ronnie. Gets the job done, at least and we have this to remember the old days from "Exile" and other notable times with the Stones. However, Carla Olson isn't my cup of tea.

  • I was at this show also. The Garden in NY. Mick said in an interview that he had to teach the song to Keith because Keith didn'tm play on the record. It was Mick & Mick!!!

  • HOLY SHOOT, I don't BELIEVE, I WAS THERE. THE FORUM 2006 rocks

  • Not half bad until Ronnie tried to Solo. Mick Taylor would have taken that solo to town! Long live MT!

  • The original from Sticky Finger, with Mick Taylor on lead guitar,is better.

  • "sticky fingers" is definitely a desert island disc.

  • Good stuff.

  • Absolutely excellent video man. Thanks alot. Superb Quality also.. Heres hoping that Sway gets a chance for the down under shows

  • Easily, the most important forgotten Stones song, performed for the 1st time ever live this tour. Brilliant!

  • 2nd time actually, first was in Columbus.

  • Yep i was there, it was great

  • You are right, I was there

  • Indeed, this song has been a slow boil over a long period of time for me. Now I love it. However, I suspect there are probably others that will emerge just as strong as this. Undercover for example. In the meantime, where and when was this concert?

    Regards,
