Theme to Slow Horses was top notch, written by Mick Jagger last year, but should have been a Stones single

Sounds like the last 60 years. 😁

They look 30 years younger on all the billboard stuff on the video, must be old footage - but fair play to them, they're clearly planning on rocking all the way to the grave....I love that attitude.

I think the footage being taken from the different Stones' eras is the idea. Loved watching their launch from Hackney yesterday. They are still so cool, yet unpretentious and down to earth which is remarkable for their ages. All power to them. The riff for the song is really good, reminds a bit of the riff in Clash 'Should I stay or Should I Go'? |

A fairly run-of-the-mill song but the sound they make is just fantastic.

Despite being a band formed in the 1960s, every single person reading this thread should count themselves fortunate that in all the eons of time we could have been born, our time on the planet has coincided with a very brief period in the history of the universe that TSR were making records and touring

I kind of like it lol. Not really a big Stones fan, but it's a decent song. There's more evil in the charts right now than an Al-Qaeda suggestion box, so let's be honest, this is a breath of fresh air.

We will never ever experience that again. Music has already changed beyond all recognition. Even in the mid 2000's it was changing, with the advent of pro-tools etc (basically the ability to record albums but not-really record them). Then of course AutoTune became more of a thing... Years ago, strong singing on albums was achieved by multi-tracking (basically taking two or three very good takes of a good singer). After AutoTune, you just needed one really poor take and you could more or less create a popstar (and there's a video on YouTube that demonstrates just how disgustingly easy it was). Instruments have been replaced by virtual instruments, and trust me, they sound great... And now you've got AI Music. I've just listened to the latest Oasis album.... it came out about 3 months ago.... sorry, it was an AI album, that sounds just like Oasis and honestly, the vocals sound just like Liam, the songs sound like Noel... It's not perfect yet, but AI is still new.... give it 5 years and all our music will be produced this way. I kid you not. We've fucked it. Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, The Who, Black Sabbath, Van Halen, Oasis, Blur, Judas Priest, Deep Purple, Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Cream, Clapton and Derek and the Dominoes, Queen, Joy Division... etc, etc... it was a moment in time, truly something we'll never experience again and while as a relative youngster (33) i didn't get to see many, I got to see a few, even if they were all geriatric.... they still rocked better than some of the shite knocking about these days and my kids will never experience it. |

Bit too young for them to be big part of my life, so I wouldn't be confident on naming any of their back-catalouge, but I do prefer the slower , non pop-rock stuff, like Angie, Blind leading the blind etc...

Most people love Gimme Shelter, I think... But for me.... this is the only Rolling Stones track which is up there with the absolute greatest of greats. |

Love the 1960s and catch every veteran tour going, a highlight would be seeing Bluntstone and Argent sing 'Shes Not There' circa 2001, one of my favourite singles of all time. What will the next generation of fans be able to say? |

What have The Stone Roses got to do with it they're not a patch on TRS! 😒👅 Stone Roses are a great band Love the fact that circa 1989, they had the Cojones to turn down the opportunity to support the Rolling Stones, because "we're not a support band". Can vividly remember seeing Ian Brown doing his Mick Jagger impression as he revealed the anecdote the the NME journo. |

What will the next generation of fans be able to say? Well what can they say already? The majority of modern music is pretty naff really. A factor for me is that most of the bands stated here can be loosely categorised as Rock bands and I feel that guitar based Rock music probably has a shelf life. It cant go on for ever. Its been 70 years now and its not surprising that the 60s,70s and 80s (to some extent) stand out as a golden period when there was still huge scope for exploration within the genre. What we are seeing now is a few squeezing the last bit of juice out of it, and this accounts for the dearth and frustration. Its the same with what we perceive as conventional songwriting. There are only 12 notes and so many chords (unless you head towards other genres like jazz), more and more songs sound like other songs (hence all the court cases), the only difference between them being production values. Of course other genres will take over, whether you like them or not, and if you are older generation (like me) probably wont, just like my parents couldn't get what I was listening to when I was in my late teens. |
