I saw them in concert in LA circa 1975. Billy Preston was with them on the piano. Great show.

Let it Bleed is great. The live version of Midnight Rambler (on Hot Rocks) has a good Charlie Watts drumming.

I used to be Ginger Baker’s videographer for his jazz work. That guy is like the Andy Warhol of the music world. Plus, I think he’ll out live all of them.

The Stones were amazing up through Sticky Fingers.After that 99.9% of the stuff they did was boring and predictable...if not worse.

"Some Girls" was their last great album.

Charlie Watts is without doubt one of the greatest drummers in the history of rock.

Even with that little kit he keeps the Stones rolling.
