Nice. Fun fact: Producer, Jimmy Miller plays drums starting @ the breakdown. It’s very noticeable at about 2:03. According to notes in the book, “EXILE… 331/3” Charlie couldn’t master that particular part so Miller stepped in. It’s true!
It's mostly the Glimmer Twins on guitar. Mick T is playing bass, but I think I read somewhere he adds a subtle little something something to the guitar mix, too. His bass playing is top- notch
I love hearing the acoustic guitar on the iso guitars. I would have loved to hear Taylor's slide licks though. It's always bugged me that the remastered digital version somewhat buried the slide in the mix. I'll take the analog mix any day. Loved the headphone bleeds in the vocals. Ahhh when music was recorded as music by musicians... Peace, love and Keef
So Mick Taylor didn't play any guitar on this? It's almost like Keith wasn't ready to hand over the reins yet. Or maybe he didn't want to let Brian go. Either way, those slide licks seem like such a Taylor thing. Surprising he didn't play them.
It wouldnt be the only time Keith did something like that. Many times he played bass. That's just because he knows exactly what he has in mind, so he takes it over from Bill or Mick T. He was the bass player on the "Live With Me" recording. He also played double bass with a bow on Ruby Tuesday (It wasnt Brian on cello, as I used to think). Bill still got to play electric bass on the chorus. These parts arent set in stone. It changes from cut to cut .
Not sure what leads one to believe that Taylor didn’t play guitar on TD?? I believe Keith is playing rhythm in open G tuning with a capo. I believe Taylor (or Keef) played the solo in standard tuning. Taylor had a great descending melody during the verses but was buried in the mix. A version of his counterpart can b heard on a 1972 Montreux promo studio performance available on TH-cam
@@markgroesbeck2717 If you look at the album credits it appears Jagger is playing the rhythm in open G on the record with Keith playing the lead. They do it differently live

Jimmy played Drums very good. Also plays them on you can't always get what you want. Definitely the best producer this time period.
Ah Wyman provides a nice subtle bottom. Which of course is buried in the mix. Would not sound right up front.
Happy & Shine A Light as well.
Not Wyman...Taylor on bass.
Two drummers at the end
I like how you kick off these videos with Charlie's skins.🥁
This shows why Keefer is always in the top 10 conversations greatest guitarist of all time. Always thought Taylor was on this.
I feel that Mick T made Keith a better player during his tenure with the band. As you pointed out, KR shows some great playing here!

Mick Taylor has no guitar credits on this song, it’s actually Keith playing all the guitar parts on this track, Mick Taylor plays bass.
@@KeefRiffshard MT plays slide mate
It's 100 percent Keith @@luke666bad
@@KeefRiffshard Jagger plays one of the guitars. Taylor plays bass. The rest is Richards, including the solo and slide
Excellent!

Wiki who goes by the engineers note
Says Taylor plays slide.
@@markgroesbeck2717 That solo is textbook Keith--the Chuck Berry bends, all of it.
and .... Bill Wyman ??
Bill left the session because he was tired so Mick T took on bass duty for Tumbling Dice
