Ive been a fan since their first album. LET IT BLEED was their best! 🎸🎙

whats the song at 16:50 ?

This album was Jimmy Miller's finest hour!

Hat's off to FlipsideCT another Masterpiece !

Mick, Ronnie and Keith had voice issues at SNL??? I blame Belushi for that.

Thanks man! Best Stones documentary ever!!

Black and Blue absolutely a great album. Love it!

I had no idea that Mick did that much guitar work on their studio albums.....I love the Goats Head Soup/Beggars Banquet era......

I thought it was Keith who played bass on Fingerprint File during TOTA.

the box sets this one & some girls came with a blue ray 5:1 I heard they are going to make SACD versions of the others I hope so 👍🏻

Thank you again Flipside! You have again delivered the goods in fine form! As always the breadth and depth of your research shines thru this amazing journey of Exile! Cheers to you Sir! 😊

@ Steve Flip Side C.T. Finished with the essay! Now I can just relax and enjoy your documentary for a day or so. I’ve missed those. Be nice to clear my mind and get back in to the life and times and the music. I’m still dog damn tired from the long drive. From Greg

Masterpiece

HI Steve.....ANOTHER amazing installment.....I really enjoyed the New Orleans stuff...I live here in NOLA. But, lol...I"m gonna have to figure how to coach you on how to pronounce it properly....it's not OrlEENs.... :) I'll try to figure how to send you a recording of me saying it properly.... Thank you again and PLEASE keep up the GREAT work!! CC

Thank you Steve! What a mitzvah and a great start to the New Year. I was a Rolling Stones fan but you’ve flipped me into a Rolling Stones addict!

‘All About You’ is the greatest Keef tune from any Stones album! I also dig ‘Let Me Go’ and ‘Send It To Me’. ER is a pretty damn good piece of work from a band that could ‘write one in’ anytime they wanted, but always seem to surprise listener! ER is up there with best of thier albums, not the worst? IMHO 🤫

Flipside Steve has done it again. Thankyou so much!

@flipside CT Quick message to Steve. Yes that’s right. All you have to do, is do it. Your mother was sure right about that one! It’s very motivating. :) and great advice! :) Steve, I made it back out west with the Old Jag. I’m beyond exhausted. 108 hours of total driving hours. I count 24 hours X 4 plus 12 hours. That’s not including the stops. Lots of trouble with the new winter tires unfortunately. They would not hold air pressure. I don’t think they were installed properly in Toronto. Lots of stops along the way Steve to put more air in and I had to tighten all of my lug nuts - this is all middle of the night stuff on hard cold highways. It started with a cop 👮‍♀️ stopping me for speeding. I had a flat at the exact same time he stopped me for slight speeding. He let me go on the speeding ticket and called a tow truck for me. That was a night spent sleeping in the car waiting for the tire shop to open. The cop did try to help me change the tire on the side of the dark cold 🥶 highway. But we both couldn’t get the jack to work in the dark so he just got a tow truck to come get me. This was on New Year’s Day. I actually left Toronto on New Years eve and I arrived on the morning of January 7. Two motel rooms and one lovely stay at my professor’s home for New Years eve and a lovely visit with him and his wife. After that I left on New Year’s Day and it was nothing egg shells and helter-skelter after that. -28 oC in the morning when I rolled into Winnipeg. The old Jag rims need to be very clean 🧼 and dry when new tires are put on those. Haha 😆 my bad luck but I made it back safe and there were a few good old stones songs along the way on the radio. I drove pretty much day and night. I hear that there was a lot of snow in Washington DC since I left. Very quiet back here out west. Okay I got all kinds of work to take care of bye for now, Steve. Best, Greg And happy New Year 🥳!!!! 2025!!!! Still doing it OUR WAY! And happy for it!!!

Thanks for the great docs. I have been a Stones fan since I was 13 and I am 64 now. The album that hooked me was Ya Ya's. At 16 I was playing the entire album on my guitar. Both KR and MT's parts. I wanted ask if you did a It's Only Rock and Roll doc yet?

Times less. One of the greatest rock n roll songs ever

Great collection with unknown details! Just thought I am french I would prefer you speaking a bit faster in your comments...😉

Glad your feeling better. Love your Stones content. Also glad you discovered Uncle Tupelo. You should listen to their album March 16-20. Produced by Peter Buck of REM. Sounds like a 90’s version of Beggars Banquet/Let it Bleed. They broke up and formed Son Volt and Wilco, both stellar bands.

I can’t explain how great this is, been binging this series over the holidays. However i would love to know the story behind one of the outtakes from this period, Potted Shrimps, do you have any type of bakground story to this track, i can’t understand why they never released it, i find it to be one of their best tracks to be honest!

As an oldie fan I'm delighted - thank you 4 all your efforts and brillians of making those documentaries ---

When was Some Girls released?

Two things: Though the theories about the "origin story" are cute enough and entertaining, Jagger -- that is, the author of the lyrics -- has said this was little more than his commentary on the battles against the English Establishment that he and Richards, particularly, had survived. A "Been through the mill, and came out the other side, smiling..." sort of middle finger. Second, if you have never allowed yourself the pleasure, might want to catch Aretha Franklin's rendition of "Flash" (produced, I believe, by Richards, along with Wood, for a wholy forgettable Whoopie Goldberg '80s flick). Song still slams. You're welcome😊.

If they toured after Some Girls came out, it would have been a lot more successful tour!

Fort Worth is immortalized on tape! No one can deny their greatness when watching that!

Don’t know about the timing, but maybe let it loose. It’s about Jolie jones. It would make sense. Or Marsha hunt

Don’t know about the timing, but maybe let it loose. It’s about Jolie jones. It would make sense.

I can't believe that super old guitar tuner! That was so cool to see! Great job as always, Steve! I've actually never watched Ladies and Gentleman because of how poor the quality used to be, a 35mm of a 16mm film telecined into PAL and back into NTSC on a fourth generation bootleg. Probably should see if the remastered version will still bug me (to be fair, years of working in television has made me hypersensitive to this stuff). Sam Kinison! CRAZY!

I am dying at the recording at 1:30:25 Mick: "We're gonna do one for ya now called 'Rocks Off'..." Some guy: "Oh hell yeah!" LOL! I would have said the exact same thing!

The Grateful Dead still have so much to answer for. Never have gotten their true comeuppance for their part in the currying of favor with the despicable Angels and injection of those abject thugs into the rock music blood stream or for their cowardice at the Altamont debacle. Oh, Karma! -- Where for ar't thou?

I think it's interesting that Keith rarely used the open D/E tuning after this record. I mean, I get it, open G is Keith 's thing, but why not mix it up once in a while, I love open D major and minor tuning

Bunuel = boonwell

keith plays berryesque solos making them his own

I wish they could have a go at remixing Exile, I just wish Mick’s vocals could be heard a little bit better. I think the instruments sound really good, just wish they could improve the vocals, but hey, I guess that’s Exile, still love the album either way.! Incredible period of music

I love all Stones, and lately I’ve been collecting all the big box sets that pertain to there 68-73 period, I think that’s there best stuff ever, they just couldn’t be beaten in that time. Brussels affair, then I would pick ya-ya’s for live stuff, I recently got the 2015 sticky fingers super deluxe and hearing that 2nd and 3rd disc live and alternate take stuff is just unbelievable to me, and the goats head soup box was a really nice surprise, the new mix and the unreleased tracks I think were great, and the killer Brussels affair album totally makes it a great fucking package.! I got the Ladies and gentleman concert from the 72 tour recently too on Blu ray, and the Ya-Ya’s 40th anniversary cd/dvd box too, love the unreleased tracks on that. So hard to pick, Let It Bleed and Sticky Fingers I think are my top two favorites, but everything within that period is my favorite lol. I wish goats head was a little more appreciated among the masses, such an underrated gem man.

@FlipSideCT there is no way they could've made this kind of album with Ronnie even mid 70s your opinion lmk

I covered "Let's it Loose" solo-acoustic w/harmonica for horns. It went over well but to see that cat play it on the guitar like that almost makes me ashamed of my version!

thank you happy new yeah

I thought a san diego cop got killed at that june 13th 1972 show when the crowd rushed and he got crushed...

Another top notch instalment. Thank you! Also, agree, 'Turd on the Run' is an awesome song. Always one of my favs of Exile. Loved the way back in the mix guitar solo. Crank it!

Is there full recordings of that Bundesarchive? I've never seen them before. I am only 37 minutes in, but dude, you have so much detail and photos, plus music, I can't wait to see/hear the rest of this story. These are the kind of stories you binge on a flight from Boston to Hong Kong. Subscribed!

Love his music all you want, but Keith influenced many young people to try heroin and he should be deeply ashamed of himself for that. Stones were the greatest rock and roll band from ‘69-‘72, but they were terrible people. Nick and Keith ripped off their own band members and hordes all of the publishing and credit for it themselves. Nothing honorable about those two

Bruh,..! I must say: You're compilation skills are second to absolutely No One. As, noted, I have offered my bit of constructive criticism. That notwithstanding, your work is award-worthy and most appreciated. Please continue doing your damn thing!

Great job as always on these videos. I appreciate the time and research. Fantastic. Thank you.

This is incredible!

love your passion man. Been watching your stuff for some time but just recently, having loads of time on holidays, I've watched a heap and have been inspired - by the Stones of course but also by the depths of your digging. My own creative work has always been mainly inspired by the stones and rock 'n' roll in general.
