There's never been a band as twisted,wrecked,and talented as these guys were from '68 to '73.And there never will be.

[@jeanneobrien7381]

yep

[@sunking1504]

They were the greatest rock&roll band in the world at that time

[@rayviada5862]

They spoke American country so well we country folks could absorb the rock in it and end up lovin' that bluesy rock they excelled at. And Mick Taylor was a big part of creating that vibe

I would include '67 too as that year they had Their satanic majesties request, one of their best songs

I could listen to this performance over and over, just to hear Keith's backing vocals. He puts so much of his soul into songs like this, dead Flowers, you got the Silver, or Happy

[@rhymeswithteeth]

Absolutely right!!!! For me, the rue vocal sound of the Stones id with Keith's voice audible in the backing vocals. His voice plus Mick's voice is a strange combination...but it works, especially, for rock & roll.

[@lewstone5430]

“Happy”

@wdrauch I could listen to any of the old stones live pieces from the 70’s over and over and it sounds better and better my favorite live stones album what have to be Love You Live it has some amazing blues songs excellent collection Mannish Boy Little Red Rooster You Gotta Move Cracking Up by Bo Diddley you can’t always get what you want my favorite live version of the song fingerprint file etc etc Live at the Elmocambo 1977 I give both albums 10 stars get your ya ya’s of course but I like love u live better my favorite live bootleg whould have to be Brussels Affair I give it 9 stars for a bootleg without Bill Wyman it’s not the stones that’s my opinion

Funny little story about Buffalo, my brothers (Einstein's) thinking since I was so young and innocent looking gave me the binocular case around my neck to carry into the show, I thought I was carrying binoculars, handing my ticket to the gentleman, he reached over and opened the case and pulled out 2 mickeys of whiskey, omg, my brothers disappeared, the gentleman smashed them in a big barrel and let me go through, as my wobbly legs entered the arena The Rolling Stones Performance got me through that days growing pains, and each album since has held special meaning as I Live, Love, Laugh and Cry.
