Ginger Baker is still above ground!?
Wow.
The Lord truly has a sense of humor.
5.56mm
Keith was more picky about the drugs he took.
They’re to old-old-old for Rock and Roll-oll-oll
But they’re too young to die...
We must be close to the same age, I wore the groves out of YBR. Norma Gene was on that album I think.
I went to 4 Trump rallies before election day. At each one the soundtrack included both the Rolling Stones & Elton John.
One of the best albums ever is Tumbleweed Connection.
Here's a couple songs Keith has for Elton...
And I guess Elton fans might like this one...
“Yea keiths fingers on his fretting hand are in terrible shape and yet he plays through what has to be painful without a public wimper.”
In my best years and the rare occasion when we played for 3 hours I’d have to soak my fretting hand in ice water to uncurl my fingers.
Keith and Elton both make great music. Neither’s music really compete with each other. It is different and both are great.
Richards’ fame is due to Richards.

Keith’s financial fortune is due to Mick.
I liked all of it thru Yellow Brick Road....
Stones are simply best Rock and Roll band ever to me
But even they have had minimal successful new stuff since early 80s
Although that Blues album fairly recent was pretty good to be their ages
I know girls like Elton a lot probably more than guys but Davey Johnstone as Eltons guitarist laid down some good licks
I saw them on that same tour. I’ve seen them several times through the years, but that show was the best I’d seen.
