This song takes me to the pages of a Colombian novel call "¡Que Viva la Música!" (Long Live to Music) to the story of the marginted social butterfly, the love for the night, triping in drugs, and the believe of 25 year old being the cusp of life, as well as the suicide of Andres Caicedo, author of this anthem for the lovers of the night...
when this song was out I lived in Md and hitched hiked to Mi during Xmas to see my girl at the time on the way I got stuck in a snow storm. There were no cars coming at all and it was getting dark and cold so I said a prayer and this is the truth. All of a sudden here comes an old painted over bread truck and he stops and says " want a ride". Well this guy ran a shelter for homeless people in Cleveland and was a pastor. But I sang this song all the way
@fld1201 Very true. For example, Mick wrote the lyrics and music to Brown Sugar. People assume Keith wrote the music because it is classic Stones and because of the open-G tuning, but it was all Mick. So, it is just a good arrangement they have. Except of course, if Mick Taylor contributes and doesn't get credited.
@jaysfca right about taylor! no wonder why he left,i love mick taylor as a musicien,but i still love the stones,the're different now but the're part of my life!
@xXPinkGoddessXx THANK YOU. I looked it up on IMDB. It doesnt look like a very good film, then again I just HATE Jake Gillenhall. I see Holly Hunter is in it. Is it just me or does she get HOTTER as she gets older?
las sensaciones q t pueden hacer sentir estos muchachos son tan ambiguas q realmente t hacen dudar de q sean seres humanos como cualquiera de nosotros muy bonito el video y muy buena idea poner la letra m gusto y mucho
todays musicians could learn a helluva alot from this, about the beauty of music, something sorely lacking today, everything today is either sexual or neurotic.
Todays musicians could learn a helluva lot from this, about the beauty of music, which is sorely lacking today, everything today is sexual or neurotic.
It's credited to Jagger /Richards because that's who wrote it ... All these rumors of Taylor having such a big hand in the writing is easily written off ... If that was the case, why did it all stop so abruptly ... He seems to have lost these great writing skills once he left the Stones (brilliant move) ... Taylor is one of the greatest lead players of all time ... But he was never a writer...
@MaitreyaRocket But he was great for the chemistry of the late 60´s early 70´s stones argubly their greatest period! Ron Wood is too similar in style to Keith the dynamics is lacking.. its pretty obvious..
I've always loved this song. It's warmed my bones many times. I love the whole album. Yes I said album I used to listen to them on my dual turntable lol
sciuti, you are bang on . i mail mick t & his wife a lot & you really have got it right & did you know jagger never gave him any royalties ??? & the song is jagger/richards although he was smacked out of his mind & missing session after session . no mick taylor no "sticky fingers"
from sticky fingers album of 1971,should have been a single,one of the best things the stones ever did,this and coming down again must be in the stones best top 5 songs ever.
The song was the product of an all-night session between Jagger and guitarist Mick Taylor. Taylor had taken a short guitar piece recorded by Richards (entitled "Japanese Thing") and reworked it for the session. Jagger performs the song's prominent acoustic guitar riff. It was Taylor's idea to add a string arrangement by Paul Buckmaster to the song. Piano is played by regular Stones trumpet player Jim Price
Thanks for the information, i didn´t know that. The Stones were such a speacial band those days, with Taylor and Hopkins and all those string and brass sections.
i love to share informations with people who love good music and especially this band and i like to show that the Rolling Stones during this period were great also because they were led astray by such talented players like Mick Taylor Nicky Hopkins Billy Preston Jim Price Bobby Keys Ian Stewart who gave an helping hand to the stones during their career but sadly never recieved proper song writing credits for their collaboration
You have no brain cells what so ever! What'd you do, give out some of your sausages? So now your a few short? Well its not like you had many to begin with anyway. The Rolling Stones are one of the best damn bands in the entire world. And oh so your saying you can do a better job than Kieth Richards huh? Mick and Kieth are fantastic, I bet when your there age , you won't be able to do tours or dance around and sing like them.
When the Whip Comes Down is not even the same kind of song as Love in Vain. You cant compare the 2. By the way Love in Vain is in my opinion a legendary song, not in the same ball park as When the Whip Comes Down. I like Ronnie but I prefer Taylor. Don't matter the Stones rule!
Mick Taylor was a very special guitarist ,but Stones did it before him and after him ..........The glimmer twins wrote all these brilliant songs ,some people like Taylor helps to be these songs more impresive ,that's it
Ok. i see this argument. Mick Taylor is THE best guitar player, in my opinion. What happened to the stones after Taylor left? they sucked. Sure they had a few good tunes like "Mixed emotions" but come one. Listen to Get Yer Ya ya's out. Taylor cranks out awsome solo after solo. You need a reality check.
There is no arguement here.Compare "Dirty Work" to "Sticky Fingers" Case Fuckin' Closed. Even Mick, Keef would agree!! and Ronnie for that matter, He loves MT
He left thank god, and took his genius and all the greatness you arses see in him and fell off the planet. BECAUSE he's not as good as Keith or Wood or Hopkins or Brian or the Stones--he's an average session-type craftsman.He's a yawn.
Sick of this argument. Ron and Brian were great at writing songs, great at being innovative, original, ARTISTS and could have (and Ron did) exist outside the Stones. Mick Taylor is a skilled craftsman. He was a zed pre-Stones and after. How can anyone argue with that? What great song did he do w/out Keef or Mick? He plays what you know he's gonna play--never surprises, never invents.
I've suffered through him live. Derivative. Ever listen to the many classic songs Wood wrote or co-wrote? The Stones were really Brian's group at first. What's Taylor done? Borrowed. I used to hear Wood live with Beck-a lot-FANtastic.Great with the Faces. He writes songs, he's funny,witty, a clever guitarist, not some drone.He plays original sounds--not template blues notes from his betters. You and the Taylor groupies can trick yourselves all you want--like Mayall, he's a bore.
Woody was best with the faces, at best a bar-room band like the Stones are now, I saw the Stones in 69,72 & 73 with Taylor. Stones at their best. And Wood played BASS with Beck,
Co-Write Maggie May, Stay with Me, Gasoline Alley, It's Only Rock n' Roll and a bunch of songs with the Faces. He was lead guitar with the Birds--not The Byrds, the Brit Band-- before Beck, and he and Rod left Beck, not the other way round. You saw the Stones in stadiums with thousands if you started in 69.Nobody could match that dirty metal cord sound and nasty tone of Keith's--except Wood. Nicky Hopkins was more a Stone than Taylor.Taylor was given the chance of a lifetime--and blew it off.
ability, per Jagger: Keith & Ronnie can't play like Taylor. It was TAYLOR who took the Stones to another level in 1969. And Demon had it right, Taylor was used & screwed for
writing credits, hence he had enough and quit. The Stones NEED this guy right now if
...and I'll add that Keith's solo album in the late 80's or early 90's is as good as the Stones, as is Mick's. Both have hit songs. Both are literate, original, funny, and, like Ron Wood's music,instantly recognizable. Great writers and musicians have their own sound. MT is interchangable with dozens of slick Brit blues guitarists.
Do not insult my intelligence with this rubbish-""What great song did he do w/out Keef or Mick? He plays what you know he's gonna play--never surprises, never invents.""
Taylor was never given writing credits for loads of stones material-He was a paid employee, which is why he finally left. Funny how the standard of stones Music has very slowly declined since Taylor Left-Fact
Oh, crikey, demons, YOU again? I have an idea: Why listen to the Stones at all? Just listen to the genius that is MT? The Stones were nothing without him and have been going bad since 1974--poor guys--and now that they're approaching 70, the quality of their music is--"slowly" declining. Except 20-year-olds are raving about Shine A Light and nobody is listening to MT except you and your strange cult. Fact.
What "facts"? Please don't tell me your "facts" are from some article or bio. You can't be that naieve. Jagger also said nice things about Nicky Hopkins. A great session man.
Tried to make peace with you and call a truce--but your post cuts it. You're one of the fuckers who has been ruining RnR for decades. The "musician" lover who can't see that it's about more than just copying USA black bluesmen--who could fuckin bury any Brit--or musical virtuosity.Beck doesn't rock anymore, he plays. Taylor has done NOTHING without the Stones except get fat and bore people.The Stones have made great albums without him. BTW "Take it So Hard" and "Lucky in Love" were hits.
The Facts come from my own ears. Look I love Keiths solo Albums, same with most of Woody's. But after Taylor left the stones got Sloppy and Lazy, particulairly live-Compare Ya Ya's to Still Life. Taylor is certainly not "interchangable" Get hold of some Live Bootlegs of the '72-'73 era. The stones have never got close to that in 35 years. And Woody would be the first to agree (Having just read his very cool biog.)
We're judging music by what 20 yr olds like now? Very good point about why listen to the Stones at all. If you like to hear them ruin their catalog every couple of years be my guest.This band has sucked donkeys for 30 yrs. Shine a Light-heard Keith croak his way through Connection - fucked it up so bad i can't even listen to the original now. Look around on here for Taylor at Beacon Hall from last fall and see who's still the artist instead of a celebrity wax show.Strange cult, my ass.
YOU'RE sick of this argument? Skilled craftsman? Have you ever listened to his work with Mayall? Pre Stones or later. Or with Dylan? Alvin Lee? Carla Olson? Listen to him on Hotter than Snakes with Olson, look in a mirror and tell yourself you're a fucking deaf idiot.And talk about a band that plays what you know they're gonna play? That's the Stones for 35 yrs. Taylor's borrowed? JFC, Richards has ripped more riffs than anybody starting with their first hit. The Last Time from the Staples.
The Last time riff wasnt ripped, the riff was by Brian Jones. The refrain words were ripped. Keith ripped stuff, bits n pieces, probably licks etc, from Ry Cooder. The Jack flash riff was by Bill Wyman (playing with Brian and Charlie).
Same thing with Sway on the same album. Keith isn't on it but it's Jagger-Richard. If Taylor had just the royalties on these 2 songs he wouldn't have to worry about his old age. Plus it would be interesting to find out who thought the outro solo needed to be cut just as Taylor was blasting off and why. Anybody know if that entire solo exists on a boot somewhere?
