Rolling Stones a TRUE (legend)

[edwsshaw1]

In my estimation, the reasons Mick has achieved such stature is, Mick gives 110% to every effort. Just when you think he has exhausted the possibilities, he somehow manages to dig down and find somewhere within himself and release another 25% into the vocal/emotional performance. A perfect example is the "Best of" (AEJA CEM) video of "Angie" that is on You tube. After the instrumental, when he sings, "Angie I still love you" and you'll see exactly. It's no fear, year in year out.

Listening to these guys, they seem like genuine professionals, real people, who did the hard work. Not so common.

LOL Mick: "You get a couple of lines" who say's drugs and the Stones didn't get Great Rock Anthems.

Yes I know he meant Lyrics..

I still refuse to believe that Mick Jagger or fucking Marianne Faithful wrote "Sister Morphine".

Bill Wyman was the Rolling Stones' archivist. It's too bad that the Beatles' didn't have one.
