Paint it Black You Can't Always Get What You Want Satisfaction Sympathy for the Devil Wild Horses Dancing with Mr. D Dead Flowers Sweet Virginia Midnight Rambler Monkey Man No Expectations So many great songs.

There's two live albums - "stripped" and "totally stripped" which I think are worth a listen 👍 also there's a four part documentary about each of the core band members, "my life as a rolling stone" , I thought it was great 👍 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will give those a look and listen. Slash's autobiography (he had a professional writer) speaks some about his experiences with the Stones. GnR were the opening act for one of the Stones tours. Slash became close fiends with Ronnie Wood. Slash also speaks to his interactions with Keith Richards. Those were limited. Slash's main regret of that tour is that he was (in his own words) pretty deep in his heroin addiction and was tending to isolate because of that. Many artists of that time reached out to Slash. These included Ronnie Wood, David Bowie (used to date Slash's mother), Keith Richards, Lennie Kravitz (went to high school with Slash), and others. Slash's biography is worth a read IMO. I have respect for Slash. He was a street kid who through hard work achieved RnR greatness and recovered from the pitfalls of that. He does a lot to contribute to the funding of support for LA street kids. A perfect person? Neither am I. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiFlyer Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Speaking of Lennie Kravitz (used to be married to Lisa Bonnet from the Cosby Show). I have been told that "American Woman" is a reference to the undelivered symbolism of the statue of liberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steely Dan got its name for slang for a dildo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiFlyer Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 One more and I will quit - promise. Page, Beck, Clapton, and Joe Cocker Concert - long at 28:30 - starts out with Page playing a long lead in to "Stairway to Heaven" morphs into "Layla" and then finishes "With a Little Help From my Friends". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched this movie as well and it also saddened me. One of Billie Holiday's best songs IMO was "Ain't Nobody's Business if I Do. This had to do with her heroine addiction I have read. Truly a great artist was destroyed by the US Government for the purpose of those seeking political power through false morality. Not unlike today.

Nope - read the real story of the song here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Woman I much prefer the original version of the song to Kravitz' cover of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumpuynarak Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Had a great 2 hour session listening/watching rock music on Youtube last night sat out on the patio with wifey before the footie started. Lots of Pink Floyd as wifey's got a thing about David Gilmour but the star of the show imo was....... Its amazing how good listening/watching great rock music is when you're having a couple of joints and a few sangsom cokes, my opinion of course lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
