Leeds University, March 13, 1971. Arguably the best version of Brown Sugar. Notice Keith in the beginning, and Mick J. and Keith towards the end. Keith is absolutely fabulous here.

All the 7 photos are from this concert.

  • Yes, I was there (1st yr student) and they were pretty incredible. Everybody was quite amazed at Mick's costume, as I recall - it was early days for that particular look. Also saw Led Zep (crowd went wild to Whole Lotta Love, which seemed to go on for ever) and Mott the Hoople.

  • How come that whenever Mick Taylor improvises it sounds fucking great yet when Ronnie tries, it's fucking shit? Because Taylor is a genius and Ronnie aint.

  • its all insperational stuff ,,from the keefer to the way it was done back way to long as theyre never be another band like it ,, check out kieths bio ,,a great book man ,,says it all Kenk

  • IT IS ON ( GET YOUR LEEDS LUNG'S OUT ) GREAT BL. THEY WERE LEAVEING THERE COUNTRY , HEAD IT FOR EXILE FROM THE TAX MAN !!

  • @deemixx

    Lots of different stories about what Brown Sugar really means but in the book Up And Down With The Rolling Stones by Tony Sanchez (Keith's buddy & H supplier), BS refers to the brown heroin that was available at the time.

  • Mick Taylor is way more than a lead player. This isn't his best or the bands' best, but they were good. There is a later version of brown sugar with Taylor on slide and it is kick ass. The studio version is another good one, also one from cocksucker blues, a documentary from '72. That's really the name of it, sorry.

  • BROWN SUGER WAS REFERRING TOO ONE TINA TURNER'S DANCER'S WHO ALLEGEDLY , MICK JAGGER WAS MESSING WITH !!!!

  • THE BEST version of BS IMHO is the one kg441 has of one night in Paris on the 1970 tour when the boys were absolutely smoking, check it out.

  • Was Keith out of tune here?

  • i'm watching all the versions  , tryin to get the right sound
