Man oh man! This is one of the best live versions I've heard yet. Keith's guitar is the whole thing. Sure, Mick Taylor is brilliant, too. Stones were best in the world in '71, and they knew it.
they were even better in 72/73 probably due to the fact they had exile/goad head soup material to provide on stage ! A bit less cover (in 71 they still played lot of berry ) while in both 72 73 they only played bye bye johnny. Anyway great years 71 72 73
@@fgsp8909 I wonder....magnificent as the band was in 72/73 I kinda preferred them when they were a greasy little rock'n'roll band - 1969 thru 71 or thereabouts. The band also played 'Don't Lie to Me', a Chuck Berry number, in 1972, which sounds terrific if you listen to it now. And one of the interesting drawbacks about 'Brussels Affair' is that it indicates what a dud 'Dancing with Mr D' was, whether live or in the studio - the only false note on an otherwise unimpeachable live album.
On the piano Nicky Hupkins! They would best band in the world if Elmer Fudd were playing lead guitar. But yeah! Mick Taylor was there for their best songs, like Brown Sugar and Tumbling Dice. Brian played marimbas on their first self- penned masterpiece, Under My Thumb. All right, Brian was a great musician and he started the band and visually (as well as musically, of course), he played a major part in building their early mystique, which is still thriving, 50 + years later. He played slide on I'm a King Bee, the song that turned me into a lifelong Stones fan.I said this ain't no She loves you yeah yeah yeah! I loved and will alwsys love the Beatles, world's greatest pop band, better than the fucking Beach Boys! But for gut bucket rock and roll, the Stones rule! No contest. They did some pure crap songs towards the end, like the worst of the lot, I want you, She's so heavy, which is 8th grade level garbage, and sounds like a kid trying to shoot his load for the third time in one night, sharing a bedroom with his older sister. "Johnnie, what's that smell over there?" Can you smell that, Prudence?" "Its just a little Oh Blah Dee, oh blah dah, Life goes on, Brah!" "What the fuck are you talking about, Johnnie?? That's Paul' song! And the worst song you guys ever did."" " Desmond has a barrow in the market place, Molly is the singer in a band!" I know, I know, it's shit! We don't need to finish it!" "Fuck it all and fuck her fucking Brrrrrrraaaaaat! Rock and roll definitely needs a shot of adrenaline!" "Still, some people like it." The Stones can't pull the wagon alone any more!
I think that Mick Taylor destroys what Keith does on this song. Too bad ! His constant willing of playing his solos are against the spirit of this song that should remain simple, basic.
People forget that the original version of this song was on Let It Bleed in 1968,Country Honk.I've read that it was Mick Taylor,when he came aboard,who suggested a rock and roll version.I've seen interviews with Keith where he more or less says the same thing.
Joseph Gurzynski Keith has never been a great lead player unless he is playing Chuck Berry which he does better than Chuck. His rhythm playing is impeccable though.
Wow! This is a streaming version of my favorite Stones song. First time I saw them, at Earls court in London, they opened with this. It was a poor effort in comparison to this one. Ronnie has just joined the band and Keith had one or two distractions, but they are the greatest rock n roll band in the world!
really? how can you be a fan? Keith's back-up in the '70s is part of what makes these performances so great! yes, Mick Taylor, for sure, but Keef singing too. he quit in the '80s and never did much back-up after that, and it's a shame, cause his voice has never been better
Absolutely one of the best versions of Honky Tonk Women. It’s too bad they don’t still have Mick Taylor. He was able to fill in the blanks behind Keith. They’re still a great band, but like all of us they are a little long of tooth 😅
All about Keith, this song. Cowbells were a Jimmy Miller touch in the studio. Cowbell must be a Pavlovian thing for you to get into the groove you want to be in for this song. I feel the same way a little bit. It was a brilliant touch for the radio back in 69 or whenever it came out. They played this dong CONSTANTLY in L.A. back then. L.A. had to be the biggest Stones town in the States in the 60s, by far. Beatles weren't even close. What were they gonna do? Play that nancy song Get Back every half hour? They were looking to hook as many listeners as possible. Shit like Hey Jude and Get Back wasn't gonna do that. L.A. is a car town, as we all know, and this song was perfect for driving around and getting stoned.
Keith it would seem like. Keith is the guitar panned to the left and Mick to the right. It's the guitar to the left that plays the intro riff which I would assume is Keith
Keith doesn't ALWAYS play the guitar solo on this. It seems like the only thing that remains constant in live performances of HTW is Keith's signature/legendary guitar chords to open the song (which even HE plays differently just about every time). I do think it it sounds like Keith is playing the guitar solo here though.
condivido ............ i più grandi.......soprattutto con l'apporto del grande mick tylor.........ma keith è sarà sempre il numero 1 ............. l'incarnazione del chitarrista rock, unico ed inimitabile!!!
Don't get me wrong, I adore them. They've made some of the most glorious music ever. But live, I've been disappointed by them more often than any other band. I think I was at this show, and as good as this sounds, it was less than memorable. Jagger was sneering at the audience because they weren't reacting as he would have liked. A week later I saw The Faces at the same venue (Roundhouse?), and it was an absolute joy of an evening. But, yeah... I didn't really need to make the comment here. Sorry
Do you think Jagger's visionary would let him off if he was necessary or primordial to the band? ... when they are with the one that Taylor should have stayed in the band, I feel a slight insult to Jagger's intelligence ...
00:11 " On the saxophone and the tequila, Bobby Keys." RIP
The greatest rock and roll band ever!!!!!
Slade piss all over the Stones.
fuck off
lol slade? lol
pietro aligi Schiavi yes you are right .
@@charlieclaw6 🤣you could've done better than that!
The best time of the Stones with Mick Taylor
Always great with Mick Taylor at guitar. I’ve said it before these were the best years. 69-74. No question. The reason Mick Taylor.
Mick Taylor's phrasing never ceases to amaze me 🌟
Awesome just sang
along and emptied my lungs alright. On the year I was born, too. Loved every second.
Man oh man! This is one of the best live versions I've heard yet. Keith's guitar is the whole thing. Sure, Mick Taylor is brilliant, too. Stones were best in the world in '71, and they knew it.
I wanted to play guitar along with the song, and then I heard Mick Taylor and that blew me away and I stopped playing, only hearing, fantastic.
All the fills are Mick Taylor . Keith does the opening rhythm and the lead break

Excellent!! Great recording!
Great recording of a great performance of a great tune. Thanks.
Excellente Version & Great Job -Thanks Anthony
The Greatest Rock Band ever with Mick Taylor.....!!!!!!

Y sin Taylor también
@@moulinaie yeah, sometimes, on rare occasions, Mick T's playing was too pretty
Intensely beautiful version.

Would have loved to see the video of this. Mick Taylor rocks!
I was at this gig. Far out for sure
The greatest rock and roll group in the entire world.
Well, there's really only 2 countries...
OMG This kicks ass!!!
Kefs backing vocals are the best !
The Rolling Stones saved my life.
OD?
IT IS A REALLY GOOD VERSION !!
Thats one of the best live version, with the get yer yaya's and the brussels affair one !
She had to keep me right against her shoulder great version thank you for uploading
i like this song a lot i love the intor and the drums great song
Yes... Best I've heard, and Keith ready to slide right into the Exile recording from here...
Keith always plays the solo on HTW, this is a rule that has not been broken
yes , ive never heard a version where he didn't . But Taylor plays all the fills.
I wish he would stop playing the lead on Sympathy or at lest split it w Woody like he did with MT.
Joseph Gurzynski Keith has never been a great lead player unless he is playing Chuck Berry which he does better than Chuck. His rhythm playing is impeccable though.
Yeh me too. But as Mick once wrote. " Those days are gone baby. Locked away and never seen."
love it!!!
Nicky Hopkins yeaaaaaaaaaaaaa 1
Beautiful
I love this song...
Wow! This is a streaming version of my favorite Stones song. First time I saw them, at Earls court in London, they opened with this. It was a poor effort in comparison to this one. Ronnie has just joined the band and Keith had one or two distractions, but they are the greatest rock n roll band in the world!
best version I ever heard of this song!
Great 👍🏻 performance,love the visual,goes with the yr well.👍🏻👂👀I remember ❤️
On saxophone and the tequila, Bobby Keys! Hah, hah, hah, hah!
Super version! Both the rock and the roll. And Keith could add up vocally too.
the french fan that I am cannot be fully satisfied with any version that does not include the famous"Paris verse"!ah ah!
Super 👌
lol hahaha Keef is off on his vocals lol!
but keIth, I LOVE IT!
he didn't give a shit
His vocals ruined it for me.
Don't ever expect perfection from Keith!!!
really? how can you be a fan? Keith's back-up in the '70s is part of what makes these performances so great! yes, Mick Taylor, for sure, but Keef singing too. he quit in the '80s and never did much back-up after that, and it's a shame, cause his voice has never been better
Ace! Best period for Stones was 69-72
Bravo
Sweet
Mick Taylor !!!
Yeah!!!
Great great song written by Jagger, Richards, and Cooder.
haha .........no
Like they ever needed him...
Браво
Keith...best guitar...
First 45 I bought with my own money,,, 10yrs old.
when I was that age that's where my cash went too
I was also 10 and heard this on the radio. Surprised tha the transistor didn't melt into my head, as hard as I pressed it into my ears ---
Anthony went and done it !
best intro ever, BUT no cowbells
Is there any album action on this gem.
where's "beast of burden".... my fav....EVER!!
Not until 78 .. this was 71
On Some Girls.
Absolutely one of the best versions of Honky Tonk Women. It’s too bad they don’t still have Mick Taylor. He was able to fill in the blanks behind Keith. They’re still a great band, but like all of us they are a little long of tooth 😅
killer versionh
rock and roll
NO COWBELL? How can this be the best? But it still is really good. But-MORE COWBELL!
All live versions start with keiths guitar.
For whatever reason, Charlie's jazz sized kit never included a cow bell. That's not him playing it on the studio version either btw.
All about Keith, this song. Cowbells were a Jimmy Miller touch in the studio. Cowbell must be a Pavlovian thing for you to get into the groove you want to be in for this song.

green323turbo the mighty Sir Mick could be put to work on the cowbell!
i cant find the cowbell, gotta find the cowbell, can you direct me too the cowbell version, please.
THE STONES!!!!
woh , the walls are movin and spinnin lol somebody dtop sommin in my drink ?
Can someone tell me if Keith plays the solo here cause that tone doesn't sound anything like Mick T but Ik Keith has to be in open g to play this song
Keith it would seem like. Keith is the guitar panned to the left and Mick to the right. It's the guitar to the left that plays the intro riff which I would assume is Keith
Your speakers might be backward. Keith is on the right, playing the rhythm/intro and the solo.
Yes, must be Keith playing that solo in open-g tuning, it's not a very complicated solo, so it's possible to play in open tuning. Sounds good.
Keith doesn't ALWAYS play the guitar solo on this. It seems like the only thing that remains constant in live performances of HTW is Keith's signature/legendary guitar chords to open the song (which even HE plays differently just about every time). I do think it it sounds like Keith is playing the guitar solo here though.
matter of fact, Keith is playing lead on the entire song-Mick Taylor backup-similar to the "Gimme Shelter" movie version-
condivido ............ i più grandi.......soprattutto con l'apporto del grande mick tylor.........ma keith è sarà sempre il numero 1 ............. l'incarnazione del chitarrista rock, unico ed inimitabile!!!
Bobby keys on sax and tequila lmao r.i.p.
More Awesome Shit Boy
Wouuuu
if this is the last gig, wouldn't this be in Newcastle?
Michael Richards, the last gig was in London.
Perhaps one of Keith's more "inspiring" vocal efforts. Oh hell yeah. Rivals his work on "You Win Again" but thats another story for another time.
🛡️🥢💃👻💐
killer version
We need more cowbell
This is not from 1971
? Of course it is. It's March 1971 at the Roundhouse, London, England.
Patrick Jordan no it is from 1975 when The Stones played at the LA foram .
No, in 75 it would have been with Ronnie, and he can't sound as good as that ;)
It's definitely the Roundhouse in 1971.
Deltics1 it's not . It is from the LA FORAM in 1975 during the American tour . I have a double CD with this track on it .
Unfortunately, MT really overplays it on this one. The guy was brilliant on guitar, but he didn't always know when to lay back.
yea, you are right Dog trekker. He never knew what to play to fill in when Keith did a solo
Dok Trekker and company, please stop the BS.
Keith probably should have laid out on the background vocals.
yikes
Video was tasteless!
The Rolling Stones.... the most consistently disappointing live band I've ever seen
so you came here to get fustration?
Don't get me wrong, I adore them. They've made some of the most glorious music ever. But live, I've been disappointed by them more often than any other band.
I think I was at this show, and as good as this sounds, it was less than memorable. Jagger was sneering at the audience because they weren't reacting as he would have liked. A week later I saw The Faces at the same venue (Roundhouse?), and it was an absolute joy of an evening.
But, yeah... I didn't really need to make the comment here. Sorry
any Stones fan at the time liked that "good bye England, hello France". bad period for all (most for Bill).
hey fox i have good news for you. stick to the mick taylor years! nothing dissapointing about live music then.
Do you think Jagger's visionary would let him off if he was necessary or primordial to the band? ... when they are with the one that Taylor should have stayed in the band, I feel a slight insult to Jagger's intelligence ...
I like Ike and Tina's version better by far!
Bravo
