The Rolling Stones in Phoenix: raw, scrappy and unpolished in concert. And that's how it should be

During their tour stop in the Phoenix area on Aug. 26, the Rolling Stones still rocked with a youthful abandon.

I was there. It was amazing. Musically, they have somehow not only maintained quality, but surpassed where they were in their live sound during many periods of their career.

The Best Rolling Stones Songs That Don’t Really Sound Like the Rolling Stones | Pitchfork

Ten times they transcended their blues-rock traditions

No. They they aren't. But the basic point of this is true. Being the second greatest band in rock n roll history is still not bad!

"The truth is, the Stones could be every bit as musically adventurous as the Beatles. But their experiments remained just that—brief trial runs that never fundamentally altered their DNA. Anytime they’ve strayed from their base to explore more au courant sounds, they’ve always been sure to hedge their bets by counterbalancing their albums with songs that reassure us how much they still love rockin’. Even their most atypical genre exercises rarely break free from traditional verse/chorus/verse schematics. The Stones are essentially like those foodies who are eager to Instagram the most exotic dish at their neighborhood’s new poke bar, only to hit up the McDonald’s drive-thru on the way home."

The Rolling Stones want this guy in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame | New York Post

The next time you hear a debate on who should be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame, be sure to bring up the name of Hubert Sumlin. As pointed out in...

The Rock n Roll Hall of Fame is a complete joke as long as people like Madonna, John Cougar Mellencamp and Green Day are in it, but guys like Howlin' Wolf's guitarist, one of the people who created the sound adopted by so many true greats of rock n roll, like the Stones, aren't in it. Of course they want him in because they get what the music is.

Not to mention the utter insult to people who suffered under actual Apartheid by comparing this to Sun City. This is outrageous.
