Shine a Light

[publius1564]

Great performance!!

[satisacro]

"Puede que el buen señor brille una luz por ti." POR ESO ME ENCANTAN LOS ROLLING STONES!!!

[megadora1969]

ボニー・レイット、綺麗に歳を重ねていますね。この人がスライド­・ギター弾く姿、好きでした！「SHINE A LIGHT」、「EXILE ON MAIN STREET」に入ってた曲ですよね。このアルバムがストーンズ­の中では一番好きです、今も。

[Nabou1]

Check out my old band's version from the 90's.

[satisacro]

@Nabou1 no

[Cupidville]

RIP BILLY PRESTON . Billy had alot to do with EXILE ON MAIN ST..... A great player and he was a great addition to the STONES .  RIP BRIAN JONES as well.

[ilysimsville]

God, my dad faved this.. ¬n¬"

[hurricanekiki]

God bless you Brian.

[badluckhoppy]

RIP, Jones....



[Nabou1]

Awesome.

[SuperBillyPilgrim]

this is great thanks for posting

[ashotaway]

beautiful!

[rockgirl62able]

I don't understand what they did at the end - Mick totally blew her off! I felt so bad for her - they did a great job on this sone.

[ErikMartijn]

Their faces are getting ugly, but they still sound beautiful...

[MarcoGreenberg]

Obviously I head the Stones version first, but after hearing Phish cover it at F8, this just doesn't do it for me as much. Even if you're not a Phish fan, check out their cover of this song from "Festival 8". A friend of a friend paid like $500 for Stones tickets, and that's not scalped, apparently they don't fuck around with their ticket pricing haha.

[TheSanityInspector]

@MarcoGreenberg They've got expensive habits.

[Greybro]

Man that is awesome!

[hoosierhiver]

warm like the evening sun..

[unbolita]

I remember when my daughter Carolina was born, and she slept at night I walked with her in my arms and she looked at me and sweetly smiled and slept while I was singing this song for her. Some years passed and the Rolling Stones are still a very important part in my life.

[68wooddy]

Grande Ronnie sei il migliore !!!!!

[666666werewolf]

nice work-out of one of the Stones best........still miss Mick Taylor and his incredible facility, all those blissful leads, and he didn't consider himself of real importance, thats so sad.......like Charlie said in the STONES in their own words, when Mick was w/them beautiful spaces opened up for him and the music...........Ronnie is ok thought, mixes with Keith well. and of course KEEF is the sound of the greatest rock and roll band that ever walked the earth. LONG live the ROLLING STONES!

[antoniomd19]

this is the classical I prefer stones until start up..then really shit....

[ikikumm]

This songs just brings up my spirit, no matter in what situation. This band is god's band.

[alaswoe2u]

"When your drunk in the alley with your clothes all torn and your late night friends leave you in the cold gray dawn..."

[masmolando]

best band ever!

[LightninStruck]

took the sky train into Vancouver to see the Stones in 2006, It was snowing. Had seats in the 6th row, couldn't afford them, put them on a credit card. Was hoping for Van Morrison but Bonnie was great. What a magical evening, even if I'm paying off that credit card when I'm 80, it was worth it. Just to feel the vibes...........Shine a Light, like the evening sun. oozes cool.

[foxyvosje]

@wichrau

Billy Preston's dead? I hadn't heard. Sort of proves your point.

I'd say what made that album was the writing. But i agree Billy's work on it was superb.

[originaldivinylsfan]

Mick is in such superb voice here & Bonnie Raitt's own singing is so seemingly effortless. Proof positive yet again that The Stones are well-able to do as Keef is quoted as saying to Mick: "let's grow this thing up". Fabulous stuff.

[rafaultimate69]

Happy Birthday Charlie and Ronnie!!!!

[rubyrose456]

Incredible!!! Just So Lovely...I got goose-bumps! Thanks for putting up

[jacqueclouseau]

.

What a Great! Performance!

[thedevilssympathy]

Make every song you sing, your favorite tune!

Great lyrics

Great Song

Great performance

Greratest BAND to ever live!!!!!

Stones for ever

[goonchistaw]

@Iputrandomstuff no it's what she sings on this version, the version on exile is

"berber jewry jangling down the street, make you flirt your eyes @ ev'ry woman that you meet" jagger sings it differently on other live versions , but the original lyric is

what i said, listen to exile or the version on here from the album (the one with nrly 295,000 views,)

[cusick6364]

Wow...Bonnie Raitt..Great song and Bonnie fits perfect with these guys she's so fuckin cool. This is rock n roll at its best!!

[flolittlejohn]

Shine a light on all of you !

[TheLucianoi]

wonderful

[Cupidville]

Nice Tribute to Sir Brian Jones

[PindamonhaMAN]

great version but... bonnie keeping looking at the lyrics all the time made me nervous man! she didn't know what song she was going to sing until the last minute?

[venicesurfer73]

My absolute favorite Stones tune. Great version w. Bonnie Raitt. Nice post.

[jazzgit335]

yeah it's really sad...all those great tunes and groups he played with...not to mention his backup vocal work which is so awesome on exile

[pilesovinyl]

Glad that I`m not the only one that enjoyed that. It was a really strange marriage of the Stones R&B stylings against Preston`s gospel roots. Thanks for the comments.

[pilesovinyl]

This is great, never seen it before. I miss Billy Preston`s amazing keyboards but this is really nice anyway. What a great song...

[thedevilssympathy]

the stones will be acitve in 2010 baby. its my life long dream/goal to see them live and its happening now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

kieth is tryin to get te stones in the studio and then 2010 tour.

IM EXCITED

[jessus92]

i know. ITS MY DREAM AS WELL.

how old are you? omg im 17 and i've been waiting for another chance to see the stones. since i didnt get to go to their last tour.

SO EXCITED :)

[thedevilssympathy]

same im turning 19 so fuckin excited

[jessus92]

woooot. stones tour :):)

[123zwiebel]

the best band ever !!!!!

[TREYOLDHIPPIE]

I love this song, and this live version is tre-sweet!

I hope I can see them every time they come to the states. /Cuz I like it!

[Flesch84]

This is for you dad!! You have guided me through my whole life and always will!! This is for you! Prost! Lieb dich so viel!!

[TerroGirL]

I love them :)

[belejSLO]

This song is actually about Brian Jones.

And Mick Taylor is a really great guitarist. There aren`t many to jam with Hendrix. His solo on original recording is briliant.

Ronnie Wood is also one fucking amazing guitarist. Listen to some Faces records, his solos are awesome.

[kriswendell]

yeah you are right mick taylor is an awesome guitarist

[jblacktree]

He's the favorite of every guitar hobbyist and washed-up amatuer and lesson-giver in the USA. That's because he's a craftsman, not an artist. Great guitarists tell a short story with their solos Taylr demonstrates that he's sure fingered and fast--You want blues, listen to the originals like Son House. Avoid the epigones and mimics.

[dljone9]

sure - what do people like bob dylan, alvin lee, pierre morlen, john mayall, mike oldfield, jack bruce, john phillips, herbie mann, anton fier, billy preston (and what do you know, the stones themselves!) know about selecting a guitar player with feel?? a lot less than you, eh?

[louiseduvee]

They are so good together!

Thank you!

[mjd775]

dear oh dear boring fucking shite!! these dull cunts need to give it up!!

[ALLEYJOE]

ronnie wood rocks who the fuck is mick taylor

[Benningsen07]

lol

[lloyd8893]

ronnie is the man!

[LBjim]

LOL!!..Mick Taylor is the man who made the biggest mistake in Rock N Roll history, DUDE who the fuck would leave the Stones?.....

[sakalan]

Well he left because he was treated like crap. Many people left the Stones one way or the other. Anyway, this version is nothing special. The original is great though. And thanks for uploading.

[LBjim]

Yeah, You are right about Mick not getting treated properly with all the songs from his era with the Stones. His era was the best and the most creative and that the band ever done..Exile on Main Steet is thei best album Bar none!!..He should have been treated better and voiced his unhappiness at the time, maybe he would have never quit. Oh well!!...Great post

[dljone9]

don't know how many people agree, incl. mick t. himself. the slide the band took on "goats head soup" was confirmed by "it's only rock & roll". taylor's work with alvin lee, mayall, jack bruce, dylan, joe henry & solo has been far more interesting than anything the stones have done since "exile...". if you play for awards shows and glitz, the stones are where you want to be. if you want to create works of art, why would you want to get stuck playing "brown sugar" rewrites for 30 years?

[jblacktree]

Taylor is a session man and a bore. Ronnie Wood plays with wit, originality and wrote great songs with his band, with The Faces, and the Beck Group and Stones. Taylr can't write--he's a mimic. The band was great before him and better w/out him. Looking for a great Stone? Jones, Wyman, Hopkins. Taylor? Meh.

[dljone9]

ah, i see - well...the stones sure took full advantage of ronnie wood's vast musical skillset by including him on a full 1/2 of their last CD. keith and mick obviously feel strongly about the value of his contributions! and let's see - on the last LP taylor played on for the stones - he played guitar, bass keyboard, and percussion. yep, he was pretty useless there.

[jblacktree]

Your'e saying he's a session man. Right. Who did nothing before or after the Stones and is boorish and boring in concert and who wrote---um--NO songs at all on his own. Hmm. His playing is interchangeable with all the other BB King note-for-notes. Wood wrote classic rock songs, claimed his own territory. Again: The Stones were great before MT, great after him, (he left them what? 30 years ago? More?) and this new shit about his "contribution" is absurd.

[dljone9]

no, *you* said that about MT. the stones were great before MT?? as in their performance at "the rock & roll circus"?? check it out, it happened before you were born - no wonder it's release was delayed for 30 years. and as for ron wood's "interchangeability" - in musician circles it's known as "staying out of the way if you don't know the song", i.e. ron wood's "interchangeability" with jeff beck on "going down" at one of the ARMS shows in '83...found here on youtube. check it out for a laugh!

[jblacktree]

I saw the Stones, live, in 1963 in London. They were amazing. for years after they got better. When Taylr joined, he almost wrecked the band with his imitation simalacra "blues." I saw the R^R circus on tv and they were and are great. Like the Who. I saw Ron Wood first with Beck ad Stewart, LA, 68, Shrine auditorium. Then with the Faces. ALL those folks have superb solo albums and have written great songs. Except Taylor--who is just a humorless mechanic. A tracing pad guitarist. Now fuck ff.

[dljone9]

haha - well, there's an objective opinion for you - one unclouded by a misguided sense of, "i must relish the sound of every fart these guys ever made". guys i have worked with, who *played* at the rock & roll circus - don't share your opinion though. sure, i have seen multiple configurations of all these artists in various places...and the stones had moments...not on the level of the pretty things or the yardbirds, but they had great production & studio players to make their records sound good.

[jblacktree]

Sure is amazing how great production and studio players have been making these talentless nobodies, Jagger and Richards, legends...despite the opinions of people who "played" (?)" at the circus. You stick to Alvin Lee and M Taylor, dude--or did it ever occur to you to listen to the original blues players? Not the faded kitschy Xerox white guy copies, but the real blues? And leave rock to people who can rock.

[dljone9]

yes it is - kudos to whoever made the production choices way back when (i.e. jimmy miller). and of course, you'd know more than anyone who played at the "rock & roll circus" gig now, wouldn't you? after all - you saw it on TV! how versed i am in the blues masters is a question only in your mind - that's fine by me. what escaped your impressive reading comprehension is, i did find a lot of stones stuff to be "good" - but the "greatest rock & roll band in the world"? nope - perhaps "best marketed"

[jblacktree]

Wood: Gasloine Alley, Every Picture Tells a Story, MORE, The Birds' songs, dozens more, in addition to fantastic bass with the Beck group. The Stones have written and produced undisputed clasics of rock--from Out of Our Heads to 12 x5 to Beween the Buttons to Bigger Bang. Keith's solo album from 88 is a masterpiece. Taylor has written nothing and was only passable when with the Stones. YOU put quotes around "played" at the R&R Circus--what the fuck did that mean? They ran lights?

[dljone9]

you don't read so good, do you? many (not all, of course) of those record are OK, though i can name many by other bands that were "undisputedly" as good or better. what you call "a masterpiece" was not universally heralded as such - perhaps a "moment" on it though was an appearance by taylor/bobby k. and yes, i put quotes around "played"...you think you are so clever, then you can surely put the puzzle together. i have nothing to prove to someone worshiping at the alter of bum note guitar gods.

[kristoffmcewan]

probably you are deaf...nobody may play gimme shelter, brown sugar, all down the line, bitch etc..like mick taylor. off course ron wood will never able.

[78rstp]

differnt time in life -they are not as wild as they use to be The STONES they so fucking big -when 25,000.00fans not going to see them - we still have Keith and he was to die way back

[FascheezyO]

Mick taylor was the best, he wrote all the hella good stones song and got little credit

[helenmonroe]

magic to me

[jblacktree]

Better than with mick Taylor by ten

[mcddtlc]

O really - you don't SHIT about music!!

MLC

[jblacktree]

An intelligent and informed riposte from a typical fan of Taylor: humorless, derivative, tin-eared and awed by the average.

[mcddtlc]

Well Blacktree - I thought it was a very

intelligent comment to your line about

better than Taylor by 10??? Yeah and

a Mustang it better to drive than a

Ferrari... MLC

[ainsels]

wouhhh amazing but who is the girl who sing with mick

[kapnzach]

Bonnie Raitt

[1Ladypharoah]

For all my friends who passed over 'cause they had just a little too much milk 'n honey for breakfast, may your sheets stay stain-free, and fly free from now on, wherever you are...RILove...

[Arealhoney]

'I just can't brush them off'...whoa, sweet...

[lorenzino1]

Hi! I was searching the song "Shine a light", and not the movie trailers of the film, film that I'm gonna see, for sure ; for the Stones as for M.Scorcese! In all cases, thanks to have put this song here, 5*! BYE!

[lemonana6]

ミックが本気で歌ってるね

[LesPaulGoldTop21]

Amazing!

[SweetLikeChocolatee]

I LOVEEE IT !!

[switcher59]

Best band, great song but Waylong Jennings telecaster for Keith? ^^

[henvasa]

Puta Mare, que cancion tan paja

[Greenberg71]

Bravo!

[littlebibs]

Long time coming getting to see Bonnie perform

some of her soulful magic with the Stones. Bonnie's been a life long Stones fan, their

classic voices blend perfect.

[3chrds]

damn, can you believe it, that song on christmas. gives ya goosebumps! hella soul.

[schnotzarella]

Very nice, very nice! We got Van Morrison here on that tour (totally fabulous!) ... Glad you caught that seemingly last tour with such a great artist as Bonnie Raitt. She works very well with Jagger.

[gd123gd123gd123]

Great song, absolutely love it.

It's funny though, with all of that Mick Jagger and Bonnie Raitt, throw in a little Keith Richards, the bass player was nowhere to be seen! Which, in my opinion, is the highlight of the song.

I caught a glimpse of him for about 1 second at 3:39.

[imaccuish]

The last show of 2006 in Vancouver. I was there and it was nicely done, with Bonnie's voice blending in perfectly.

[metalheadrmania09]

why didnt bonnie play her slide guitar?

[notstopping]

can bonnie please join the rolling stones.? please?

[gbail9566]

She is truly amazing, making anyone she sings/plays with better (even the Stones...amazing!). Just imagaine if she'd've brought her guitar for this one...what a jamfest!

[3chrds]

all she needs on this song is to bring the soul in her singing, and that she does to this stones gospel tune.

Chuuuch!

[notstopping]

love it

[notstopping]

great great great. this is the BEST EVAH!

[elbertja]

great song, i love the stones

[luigilebeau]

I Love Stones and I love Bonnie!!

Is this part of the upcoming SHINE A LIGHT directed by Scorsese, or is it from another film?

[upsalooka]

No, it's bonus material from the four-DVD set "THE BIGGEST BANG", with country singer Bonnie Raitt

[thinspring]

woodie does this justice and to be be honest to me he has more presence and persona than mick!

[ablett2002]

Ah, but the lump of lard left the stones by his own free will.

[AFI063]

kewl tho they r better with mick taylor....

[tanoelmillo]

aguante los stones

[mcddtlc]

They shouldn't touch this song without Mick Taylor handling the Lead Guitar!!

It's a Classic made very average without him!! MLC

[rollingstone1993]

psh! yeah right

ronnie does as good a job, if not better!

[Guedingen]

I agree.

[tropelia]

Chuck Labelle is a great musician. They should give him more space.

[rensessink]

chuck leavell

[TenneyMead]

This is really good, though I miss Mick Taylor.
