Sal, thanks for posting the photo of Bobby. I absolutely loved his music. While he's unknown to so many, he needs to be appreciated more. Yesterday's news really hurt.
That clip is from "Ladies & Gentlemen, The Rolling Stones," one of the all time great concert films. For years it would only play midnight screenings. I saw it at both the 8th Street Playhouse and the Graham in Gerritsen Beach, Brooklyn. It is very streamable now.
The music is magic. 1972 is my favorite year for live Stones even over 1969.
But the video: OY! The editor & director were more interested in Mick's ass & crotch. I'm not being a wise guy. Look at the video again. Keith sings, we see Mick's tush. Mick Taylor solos, we see Jagger's crotch. WTF!
I have the DVD and have watched it many times and way too much of the film is spent on Jagger to the detriment of the rest of the Stones. The great other four members of the band.
Thank Sal. Great way to start the week! Live 1972 Stones, tush & all!

I have great respect for Ronnie. Brian sparked the early band. But Mick Taylor was the best.

Great way to start the week. Awesome performance and a wonderful reminder of how truly great a band they were.
Simply, one of the best Stones song. And his solo records are just fantastic!
Smoking version. Mick Taylor was the Stones’ John Entwistle. Too bad the director deemed Charlie and Bill superfluous until the final seconds.

Sorry I misspoke, Jagger's crotch doesn't show up until the last few moments, I guess as the grand finale to the song.

I can’t how many midnight shows I saw of that flick.
Thanks Sal for "Keeping me happy"
Great live version of a great song! I thought it was a Keith song until I saw this- he doesn't even get the spotlight when he's singing lead lol.
This will forever, forever make ME happy! I can never get enough footage of this song.
