That was there & than, that..though it's very sexist, the "Angry"- song...and in true Rolling Stones- Style.. I'm a feminist and a woman, but my Stones can sing Whatever They Want. Coz they're who they are, and, they're true to them selves. They're The Rolling Stones 🎉 As audience I've always wondered:"WHY DON'T PEOPLE GO MUCH MORE CRAZY??

Ronnie was already an accomplished musician having been in the Faces, The Jeff Beck group, and various other R nB assemblies. He is known for his melodic complimentary playing along with his unique soloing style. He is well capable as a stand alone rhythm and lead guitarist and was before the Stones.

[@assininecomment1630]

Really? I've never picked Wood's playing as a stand-out amongst his peers. More significantly than my own little world, I can't recall a single reviewer or other musician ever highlighting - much less waxing lyrical about - Wood's soloing style.

Great documentary!!! My opinions: Black and blue is a lot better than people give credit for. Some Girls was made for the radio. Albeit a breath of fresh air and a kick in the butt to the punks, being the stones embraced punk on that record. I can do without ever hearing miss you or shattered ever again Emotional reduce was trash except for all about you Tattoo you? Nice to see a lot of demos reworked into something modern sounding. Again made for the radio. Little T&A is a killer song, along with black limousine and slave Undercover super underrated. Couple songs(she was hot for example) are trash but not a bad record overall Woody changed the sound of the group. He was meant to be a stone from birth. A perfect match for keef and plays off jagger really well

The only reason Taylor didn't so called settle in further is they wouldn't give him any song writing credits for what he came up with.

In his own words, the main reason for him leaving was his worsening heroin addiction. He wanted to get away from the whole lifestyle, surrounded by drug dealers and users etc . Yes not getting credits was part of the reason ,as was playing the same stuff night after night and not really getting to improvise like he did in the bluesbreakers, but the main reason was to get away from heroin. ( he's on a documentary saying that,it's on KZbin) Unfortunately he stay on it for a good few years before getting clean.

The Rolling Stones had a song called "EVERYTHING IS TURNING TO GOLD" and that was true up until and through "SOME GIRLS' their last great album." The Stones hit their musical apex during the Mick Taylor years. I first saw the Stones live in 1975 and saw them in New Jersey in 2020. They are still a great live band, and there is no denying that Mick Jagger is the major reason why. His dedication to being in top form is a lesson for everyone.

On the recent release of the Beatles special on streaming channels showed them stalling a bit and fighting a little. George was unhappy and briefly left, but when Billy Preston came by to help a little they were so enthusiastic it suddenly brought them all back in earnest.

I'd been following the Faces and Ronnie didn't just look like a Stone he played guitar like one. When Black n Blue came out I was thrilled,but not many others . I remember earlier on Let it bleed being hooked by Richards on " Monkey man" . I felt the same way when I heard " Hey Nagrita" and all the other tunes were a new sound and rowdy and they didn't sound like a ten year old band , funny but they sounded like a new band . It also sounded clean but edgy . The Stones were always and still are the best at their worst so no need for perfection. The mix of genres probably blindsided many Stones fans but not me . I was born in 56 and thank God my first artist that hooked me was James Brown and as a little kid one of my favorite songs was Iko Iko . Funk , Reggie / Rock and hard hitting rugged Rock n roll the Stones got more than my attention .😎

I have a friend, whos mom took him to see Hermans Hermits. A cute band; for teeny boppers. My friend was 12. The Who was the warm upband. He said that they were really wild, and very loud. I knew my friends mom. This guys father was a world champion rodeo star. So my friends mom was probably not scrared. It did probably surprise her 4sure. Years later i saw the Who. This friend was part of our group of folks. We were seniors in high school. 1976. The Who opened thier world tour in our city. Bob Marley, and the Wailer's were thier warm up band. The first song that I heard; by the Who was Pictures Of Lily. The first song that grabbed my attention was: I Can See For Miles. I was 13. My favorite song by the Who ( I guess is): Faith In Something Bigger. I listen to Quadraphinia about once per month; usually on a long drive somewhere. I watch Tommy when ever i want2. I love Anne Margaret in that movie. These guys met in high school. Peter Townsend said that his friend John Entwisle was walking across the school yard,twords him with Roger Daultry. RD had a rep as tough guy. Peter said that he was afraid he coming over to pick a fight with him. RD said to him: "John said your a good guitarist, i was to start a rock band". When i read that in a 1980 magazine, i thought. Yeah. Its nice when you meet a person that has a rep as a tough guy/ fighter, and they turn out to be alright. Even fun.

Deep Purple were friggin amazing 🙌

Nobody has close to the 'Songs' the Stones have - even the Beatles. If you don't already know it check out the Singles Collection The London Years Record - there's 40 bangers on that compilation and that's almost before they'd even begun their classic 70's period. Nobody comes close to the song catalog they have. Zeppelin are riffmeisters that don't cross over with the breadth of actual 'songs' that the Stones have - the other ones are niche bands to put it mildly - yeah maybe they were big in this period but what do they mean to the 'culture' now?

These critics need a new profession; I don't think they have a clue .... what is goin on with the Stones. I don't think Mick and Keith even listen to these guys...and could care less... When you consider the Stones total catalogue of songs it is undeniable....there is no comparison. Most critics don't even give the Stones credit for all the terrific songs in the 60''s and 70's that, in my opinion, is unmatched and blows away the Beatles, who I like. It is simple...these critics and the DJ's all were just in a cult with the Beatles and never gave the Stones their due. And by the way...don't forget about 10-15 of the Beatles biggest hits are alleged with plagiarism with pretty good evidence. This guy mentions GREAT SONGS BY HALL AND OATES like comparing them to the Stones....can u imagine....????? I will take note of each of these critics and never listen to their garbage again.

Watching this reminded me how great Black & Blue is.

[@adamwatson6916]

Jagger and Taylor wrote moonlight mile and despite Keith not even playing on that track and not being present when it was wrote the song was credited to Jagger and Richard's.

[@fixpedalboards1969]

I love these 90’s/00’s “show someone a clip and have them comment like they’re riffing off the top of their head” “docs” it’s always somebody who barely had anything to do with the band or maybe live next-door to the guy who used to be the limo driver for Slash or something… go look at all the sales and attendance numbers for ALL the 70’s records and tours. Real slumps a Telya I think Mick was down to to his last two private islands…it’s a miracle they even survived

[@dondamon4669]

The Rolling Stones were the greatest band in the world between 1968 to 1980! Apart from maybe the Beatles abbey road and obviously the white album

[@michaelfrazia4569]

glad you included the beatles...60s was beatles hands down...stones really took the baton in the 70s...its not fair for any band to try to compete with a band where you have paul mccartney, John lennon, and george Harrison all writing songs...but you are spot on..the stones killed it in the 70s. I actually think they kept momentum through 82 on the tattoo you tour....the mtv generation really took hold in 83 ...the stones at that point where crawling towards becoming a nostalgia act which started on the steel wheels tour in 89...your comment was basically spot on

[@bezerkerkrankenhaus7769]

Zeppelin pissed allover the Stones in terms of concert sales and album sales in the 1970s. Better music too. The Stones were self proclaimed greatest rock and roll band but came second to Zeppelin in all departments in the 1970s.

[@bryanfalcho6293]

​@@bezerkerkrankenhaus7769Zeppelin weren't rock n roll though, you can't dance to it,they had no groove, funk or soul, lyrics were silly like some nerdy lord of the rings fan wrote them and also stol way to much most of there best songs were just rewrites and the song they are known for is a rip off of another bands song! I like Jimmy Page but I don't know how anyone can listen to R plants wailing through a whole album and live he was terrible just standing camply waving his arms. Pity they didn't get Rod Stewart

[@letitbleedadam]

Does anyone know where I can hear that alt version of Its only rock and roll..., with the slide in it? (From the beginning of the special). What’s interesting is that Mick Taylor’s version with the Adam B (cover) has a lot of b-bender slide.

[@jiminycrint]

68-72 was their great period. There were great tracks before and since but that was when they found their groove and everything they did made sense. Mick Taylor was a big part of that. But then Gimme Shelter was all Keith, and that’s, for me, the best thing they ever did.

[@josephperreault997]

75-83 is my favorite Stones era. Ron was like an old pair of shoes. He just fit perfectly in terms of looks and playing. I had know idea that Jorma Kaukonen name was kicked around. That would have been odd but also could have been amazing but they got the right guy.

If you grew up in the 60's-70's, you were either a Beatles, or a Stone. No comprimise.

[@cherrybomb2600]

In Los Angeles, the top radio station had Stones/Beatles battle weekends. Nothing but the two bands, everyone loves both.

[@stevebeye1585]

Yeah, why limit yourself like that. I grew up in the 70’s, I liked the Beatles songs more, but I always knew the Stones were more real Rock n Roll. They both served extremely educational in my learning the ropes musically.

[@m.vonhollen6673]

Not true, and it’s “compromise”.

[@prajnachan333]

In talking of Ronnie and Keith they failed to mention they played in the Barbarians then the New Barbarians, even bringing Stanley Clarke on bass on tour. That was a great band that was under the radar- of this doc too apparently (!)

All about you is a masterpiece . Also Keith's solo albums are amazing and are alot better then alot of stones album. As a side note the best stones album post tattoo you was Izzy Stradlins first solo album.

[@johnjeffery6638]

Its so Weird- when their Worst album came out- DIRTY WORK; KEITHS SOLO ALBUM WAS BEING LAID OUT TO COME OUT ROUGHLY 2 YEARS LATER. BASICALLY CRAPPED OUT DIRTY WORK, THEN SYARTED RECORDING TALK IS CHEAP- A 10!!
