Who was the driving force in the writing of those stones classics? Afaik they just get credited as Richards-Jagger. Whereas Lennon-McCartney songs generally we know who actually wrote the song. Though the Beatles were v.good, The Stones were an order of magnitude better imo.

Jagger’s been on as well, he’s always been ugly – but after seeing him tonight I’ve upgraded him to hideous. I’m surprised he’s still got his faculties judging by his looks, but he can still manage to slur a sentence out. Oh boy what a mess. |

Theyre all about seventy and look about seventy, what is the problem. And regardless of looks theyve all gone through more quality f@nny than any on here.

On the presumption that he was at least half of the jagger-richards song writing duo, and bearing in mind his guitar ability, he is one of the four greatest brits in musical history.... Along with Lennon, Bowie and Van Motisson.

Yeah, it's not like they produced Gimme' Shelter, Sympathy For The Devil, The Last Time, Paint It Black, Angie, Wild Horses ............. |

i've really got to like the Stones in the last year or two, was never a great fan in the past - but appreciate their stuff now

What a pathetic load of negative whingers on here.
Thought the interviews with each member of the Stones was excellent. It was great seeing these icons of rock and roll still going strong. Elder statesmen of all that's good in this type of music. 50 years of performing is a wonderful achievement - and they've written some classic songs. Rock and Roll will never die ! |
|
By:
Can anyone answer my question regards jagger-richards? We all know who really wrote the majority of Lennon-Macca songs despite them getting joint credits, but were the stones ones more collective efforts? Just to chuck a few in the hat... Gimme shelter, honky tonk women, jumping jack flash, paint it black, brown sugar and sympathy for the devil...... Who actually wrote them? Jagger, Richards or genuine joint efforts? Because if it was largely down to one person then that one person deserves far more credit than they currently get imo.
|
|
By:
They write songs for the money not for the credit.
|
|
By:
Yes but regardless of credit/money we know that hey jude and yesterday were by Macca and I am the walrus/strawberry fields were by Lennon. Afaik the majority of beatles songs we know who actually wrote them, largely because they were the lead singer on the songs they wrote. Different with the stones because Jagger is generally the frontman regardless of who wrote them. As Richards is the guitarist, my instinct is to say that he is the main man... In which case he should be put up on a far bigger pedestal than he presently sits. A bigger pedestal than even John Lennon.

he might look rough now, but 30 years ago with his lifestyle he must have been odds-on not to reach 70, so pretty amazing he is still alive !

I like Stones records but I wouldn't say I was a fan but I read a review of a couple of new songs by them. The reviewer said you could tell which songs were more influenced by which of the two but that they were more collaborative than Lennon and Macartney. He said that the dirtier the sound the more likely it was to be a Richards inspired creation. Which I guess makes sense and which might be suggestive that some of the best bits of their best known songs were more influenced by Richards. I think he was known as the one man riff back then. |
|
By:
Ok eternal. Like i say, my instinct is that if you play guitar you are more likely to be a writer than if you are just a singer. Loads of great singers had their songs written for them. It is an interesting question that, strangely, has never really occurred to me until now.

he might look rough now, but 30 years ago with his lifestyle he must have been odds-on not to reach 70, so pretty amazing he is still alive ! ffs in my schooldays (the 60's) we all wondered how long he'd last. If someone back then had said that he'd still be around in his seventies we'd have said that they were barmy |
|
By:
^ Yeah, exactly, no-one expected him to last, so a bit ironic that he nearly kills himself about 5 years ago when he fell out of a coconut tree in Fiji ! after all his drug use etc. would have been very ironic to make it to old age and get killed falling out of a tree !!!

Along with Lennon, Bowie and Van Motisson. If you were to ask Keef what he thought of his guitar playing his answer wouls be 'Just playing the blues.' Like a lot of rock guitarists, he abandons standard tuning for 'Open G' tuning, and he admits he doesn't need the 6th string. |

He doesnt look too bad to me. He forms sentences, responds to questioning reasonably articulately. Ive no idea if he is still doing drugs and if so what drugs, but he is 69 and looks it, he doesnt exactly look 80.
Looking at pictures of him as a youngster, he mustve been the coolest guy on the planet back in the day. |

By:
The coolest Stone has always been Charlie Watts imo
