Seems Keef used a lot of open D tunings in the sixties and early 70's playing songs like jumpin jack and gimme shelter high up the neck. Its a delta blues thing to master this tuning. Then after let It bleed era, maybe cos it's easier for him and the singer, or he got some advice from ry cooder, or cos its not so far up the neck to play, or the tone is lighter or he just fancied a change etc, he moved most tunes into open G tuning with capos. Sometimes several guitars are combine
amazing how they eventually began playing together and in tune, after about 30 years of trying. having said that, they also lost some of the energy, and some of the raw truth of the late 60's. Clearly in it for the money. Having said that, some of the greatest rock songs ever written...

Charlie is like the SAS commando of drummers -- simple kit and he makes it sound like Semtex high-explosive.
