Fifty years? What's fifty years to the Rolling Stones? - Page 2

To be honest... well done-but as a stadium band... they gotta knock it on the head... It's an 'experience' going to see them live, like the Grand Canyon and Disneyland.
I love plundering the old stuff and with just over 400 stones albums... I think most pockets are covered. But as far as writing and inspiration goes... well old Rodney Stewart summed it up perfectly to Louis Theroux, "I've been pampered and spoilt and lived an unreal existence for fifty years, what can possibly drive my creative juices?.." my Mexican gardener pruned my roses today?

The Stones' most outlandish attempt to offend the straightlaced was probably this LP that they had planned to release in early 1966:

Side A

1. 19th Nervous Breakdown
2. Sad Day
3. Take It or Leave It
4. Think
5. Mother’s Little Helper

Side B

6. Goin’ Home
7. Sittin’ on a Fence
8. Doncha Bother Me
9. Ride on, Baby
10. Looking Tired

Decca took one look at the Could You Walk on the Water? title though and flatly refused to release any record with that name.

Some of the pictures from that photo shoot ended up on their Big Hits (High Tide and Green Grass) compilation while many of the tracks intended for the stillborn LP ended up on Aftermath.

Yeah, I have that bootleg, Brian had just bought that Rickenbacker... the time of the photo shoot - Dave Hassinger should have worked with them more.
