[@fabrix7907]

Say what you like but Mick Taylor leads are the best. He just nailed it every time. Keith is the riff master, but MT take every song to another dimension.

[@tefenstrat]

I love Micks lead on this song...and I think what really makes this song great is that Mick Jagger played the Rythem guitar!!

[@frankdiscussion2069]

it's all Taylor on this song...Richards only contributed the backing vocals

[@tefenstrat]

@@frankdiscussion2069 Mick Jagger played Rythem guitar---- it even states that in this video.

Mick Taylor's time with the band was the Stone's golden era in my humble opinion, wonderful guitarist!

[@tobersiregar8800]

Now I'm 54yrs ..but still make the Stones 1st band..since I'was 12years old..so I want live as long as the Stones live....🙏💪💪

[@cameronpickard7456]

THE STONES were just on a completely different level at this time nothing in rock history compares to their brilliance never to happen again sadly

[@MrASIDS]

it's my favorite guitar solo. i always thought that ronny wood was born to be a rolling stones and i love him. but mick Taylor on lead guitar was just perfect for the stones

[@Christine16425]

👍🤸

[@ingenuitas]

The Stones hit a plateau with Wood. No more ascension to the heights that were denied them with the departure of Taylor. The Stones with Wood are boring has beens.

[@chrisdodson8118]

Never bettered, agreed 100%, cheers.

[@bigbossman7991]

No doubt. The opening song off Sticky, man, you would not believe the memories I have of this song. Love this band as I do the Grateful Dead.

[@philregular1465]

[@tattoofthesun]

My favorite Stones song. Absolutely sublime solos and Bill's bass is so lively, I couldn't even try to play it with the feel Bill Wyman does. No tabs can really teach you to play the guitar, bass, drums, horns, piano on this. Mick is at top passionate energy too. It's a band giving it their absolute all at full pedal to the floor. I get chills thinking about them in the studio, everyone at their best and you can hear it

[@sharonbrown3938]

❤❤

[@brianwells4507]

Could you just imagine what it was like in that studio at Muscule Shoals? The Stone's snagged the in house piano player on "Wild Horses", Jim Dickinson. He's the father of Luther and Cody Dickinson of "The North Mississippi Allstars"! If you're familiar with that band you know the acorn didn't fall far from the family tree!❤

[@mackb909]

[@Manicprogressive1]

Nicky Hopkins on keys. This has become my favorite Stones song over 50 years of listening to them. But for nearly that long I thought it was “evil eye” not “demon life.” Got a real feeling I’m not the only one, lol. Fave Stones era with Mick Taylor. And that Jagger vocal is among my favorites.

[@MysticRuler-n4j]

Guilty as well.

[@jeffreystark435]

Never knew Nicky Hopkins was on y favorite Stones cut. I only know him from playing with Jerry Garcia in JGB.

[@JBags72]

“Sway’ belongs to Jagger and Richards but it is very much Mick Taylor’s song! “I think he had a big contribution. He made it very musical. He was a very fluent, melodic player, which we never had, and we don't have now.”……”Mick Taylor would play very fluid lines against my vocals. He was exciting, and he was very pretty, and it gave me something to follow, to bang off. Some people think that's the best version of the band that existed". - Mick Jagger 🤘🏻RocK LiVeS!🤘🏻

Since he never wrote anything worth a damn in the next 50 years I’m thinking, no, Taylor didn’t write this.

No doult this was the best era of the Stones . With Keith on guitar, Mick , Charlie on drums and Bill on Bass and Mick Taylor when rock and roll was in its blues stage ( no disrespect to Wilson's 60s era ) . Taylor's guitar licks along with the others made this bands title as the best rock and roll band in the world.

Ultimately Keith had to get Ronnie because Mick was making him look like a child on the guitar. But boy, ask Keith about other players, he's got opinions about what everyone else is doing wrong. The centerpoint also with Keith is Exile their best album, was him hoovering up ideas from others, Gram Parsons, etc. Why is Mick Taylor so much more in the background on that album? which came right after this one?

[@HotDogs-cx9ji]

If Mick Taylor had gone to court in the US he could well have changed writing credits for every musician alive. The argument is simple. Delete or mute out what I play and what have you got? Well you have a track in demo and the end product is going to be different than before. Maybe not so much of a hit as it could never be argued more of a hit, as the hit was the release. Looking at writing credits through that lens offers me lots of perspective. Can you really see Robbie Robertson writing for the culmative 17 instruments plus 3 (other) singers who all have prowess?

[@encoreunefois1X]

Nobody mentions Charlie's contribution on this, which I find to be one of his most noteworthy. I guess everyone is too blown away by Mick Taylor to notice.

[@petermills2061]

[@HotDogs-cx9ji]

Why Mick Taylor is influence is obvious as a writer, the band is the biggest and the US is where it's all done. I thought of it after reading in 1982 that they stopped payments to him via Prince whoever. His Stones credit card was taken the day he left the band.

Yes, and sadly Mick played rhythm on this but he never brought the Stones back to that heavy sound after Taylor left. With Keef and Ronnie, the live shows are this fast tempo mess sometimes. I read Mick didn't like the tempo of the '69 tour, (to me the best sound too) and convinced Keef to speed it up. Maybe the coke caused that mid 70's.
