Rolling Stones Voodoo Lounge Vh1 special

This is (most of) the VH1 Voodoo Lounge special that ran in 1994 before the Stones started their tour. Found this randomly on a VHS tape and thought it would be interesting enough to share. THIS WAS 21 YEARS AGO. WHAT THE HELL.

[@steelers6mk]

I was in D.C. for the opening night of that tour. I can't believe it's been 26 years ago. It seems like a lifetime ago. One piece of advice, live in the moment. You won't regret it when you look back on it. ✌

[@robinnolan8006]

[@kayvancooten4657]

I love the way Charlie describes Bill as a bass player. Quote: You never really knew he was playing until he stopped. Then the bottom fell out. ❤️🎶

[@franktheo2055]

From 1965 - 1969 The Beatles & The Rolling Stones where churning out so many singles & albums like hot cakes in a bakery with one hit after the other. It was an amazing time for music.... Cool prospective by Mick Keith Charlie & Ronnie in retrospect of how it all evolved..

[@Abebe345]

The competition between them spurred each band on.

[@franktheo2055]

@@Abebe345 Yep ! Genius talent camaraderie and competition made their music great !

[@henryslatt9041]

The Brian Jones era was the best era. Brian brought African American blues to the mainstream and advanced the sound. Brian was a true bluesman with every bone in his body. Doesn’t get enough credit for transforming the entire music industry in the early 60s. As the Beatles were releasing #1 love songs, Brian and the stones were churning out some of the best music at the time. Listen to Brian’s slide on red rooster or the harmonica on Not Fade Away. True masterpiece of sound

[@Abebe345]

@@henryslatt9041 Not sure. The Beatles, like the Stones were regularly covering Blues staples then, especially live. It was the reason many bands were forming then? After many of the blues performers like Chick Berry, etc toured and got played a lot in Europe.

[@franktheo2055]

@@henryslatt9041 From 1964 until 1968 musically was The Rolling Stones most creative period of growth. Brian Jones was able to pickup any instrument and play it fluently. Despite the fact he never sang or wrote a song, what he incorporated into Jagger Richards compositions was the root and foundation and identity of the band. I became a Stones fan since i was a kid during the 1960's and everyone says that Exile on Main Street was their best album ever and it's a great double album, but I always felt that Beggars Banquet was The Rolling Stones at their very best. Be Well !

[@solutioneers1]

I worked as a lighting person on these interviews (hidden behind the black screen in the interview room) --lit primarily with a "china ball" paper lantern light. Of interest is one of the camera persons was Albert Maysles who co-directed the documentary "Gimme Shelter" the 1970 film about the Rolling Stones Altamont concert. He used his original 16mm Aaton camera (shooting black and white film) which had these clever modifications including a dental mirror and number markings painted backwards so they could be read in the mirror, and a light meter mounted onto the camera. Thanks for posting!

[@terrypussypower]

Charlie Watts has the most distinctive right hand hi-hat action in rock! That 3 on, one off style, can’t think of anyone else who does that.

[@billyboy1093]

You're right, he does it to get more heighth out of his left hand before it comes down on the snare to keep from hitting his sticks together. It looks very awkward and gives it a choppy feel.

Glad to have seen mostly all the Rolling Stones Concerts when Living in NYC and before having children in Madison Square Garden!!!!!!always loved all the Stones. I know how much Keith was closest to Charlie. Especially now that Keith is FREE from all addictions Im sure his heart ♥️ is especially broken .All the Stones are hurting. But Charlie was especially caring and loving to Keith. Im sure Charlie is in heaven at peace and wanting to make sure Keith stays as sober and loving as he is today. Charlie was indeed loved. I saw Ron Wood standing back of me at a club called Dancesteria in the early 80s. We both said hello to each other. Another lovely persona. All of the stones are . Mick never saw him outside of the stage but never a dull moment when he was always on stage. Always perfect vocals!!!! Once introduced the band members on stage and said: This is our drummer Charlie Watts, Charlies looking pretty good tonight hey. Was very sweet as Charlie for one of a very few times I ever saw him smile so widely onstage. Keith, is tight! Stop worrying about aging! We all have to keep a bit of is at 15 in our minds to enjoy life and not look forward to any wonder still have in our lives!! He is right folks!!!!!!!! I hope to still love music , people, and still love every song they have ever written. Just sorry I have No sympathy For the devil but hey if you do thats your path. Wont knock you for it! Nor Mick! Not the devil oh please now that was one stupid rumor that went with some people who still believe the Vaccine will give you reptile DNA. Lol 😂 lol 😆. Anyway, my love goes out to all of you!!!! You are all blessed! Made it through the years all alive and have gorgeous children and grandchildren. Charlie wants you to Keep On Rocking!!!!!!!all my love❤️🌹🙏♥️Kathie

[@terrypussypower]

The writing credits on the Stones stuff, especially their 60’s and early 70’s songs, is pretty shady at times. Obviously it was Jagger/Richard that did the most of it, but leaving out Bill Wyman and especially Brian Jones from their rightful credits, is the kind of sh*te you’d expect from the likes of Don Arden or Allen Klein.
