mick taylor is a nice bloke and plays a mean guitar. i met him after his show in woodstock, ny a couple of years ago.....he came out to sign anything you wanted
Taylor takes melodies where few dare to go. He's a giant and should be recognized as such apart from his band involvements. But whatever band he was with, he consistently pushed them to new levels of creativity. Listen to this and hear 4 yourself.
i always held mick taylor in high regards because of what he brought to the stones, but when i started hearing more of his pre-stones guitar work, i'm even more blown away.
I agree, but his work after the Stones is astounding!!! Check out Red House and Can't You Hear Me Knocking, which some versions is 22 minutes. Also check out Spanish/A-Minor from the late '80s.
Mick's playing was on a freakin' sabbatical with the Stones compared to the work he did with John Mayall. He did that stuff practically in his sleep. On Bare Wires and Laurel Canyon he flexed his muscles like no one before him
im a clapton fan myself (up to derek and the dominos ugh to post 76 clap). and from a clapton fan i still rate Mick over him. that might not be saying much in the sense that mick taylor is and will always be my favorite guitarist, but that's at least 2 sides of the spectrum agreeing. I've never heard ANYONE play the guitar like this man, and never have i felt anything like what i do when he plays and i could not agree more with everything you said. mick's talent is severely underrated.
The lineup: Mick Taylor - lead guitar (of course!); John Mayall - rhythm guitar/vocal; Tony Reeves - bass; Jon Hiseman - drums. Hiseman and Reeves left shortly after this to form Colosseum, which was arguably the first real jazz-rock band. It also included saxophonist Dick Heckstall-Smith, who like Reeves and Hiseman was in Mayall's 'Bare Wires' band, though not on this track. Heckstall-Smith and Hiseman were previously in the Graham Bond Organisation, which also included Ginger Baker, John McLaughlin, and Jack Bruce...with the latter also doing a short stint with late '65 with Mayall, which is where Clapton, a big fan of the GBO, experienced playing with him and led to him insisting he would only join Ginger Baker's new trio if Bruce was included.
Start Walking. Ce morceau est époustouflant d'un bout à l'autre (quel final!!). Il montre toute l'épaisseur du talent inouï de Mick Taylor, mais aussi la créativité des Bluesbreakers à ce moment. La qualité d'orchestration générale de John Mayall et ce que fait Jon Hiseman, le batteur, est également d'un top niveau. Ce morceau méconnu du grand public, et même de la plupart des amateurs de blues, reste l'un des grands chef d’œuvre de l'âge d'or du blues électrique anglais.
Fabulous stuff. This is an example of why everyone was raving about Taylor back in those days. This is the REAL Mick, heart & soul. He was a very different player during his Stones tenure.... very good, and a unique presence in that setting, and actually, another example of how great he was as a player, being able to morph into a "Stones" compliment, while all of THIS musicality was raging in his heart. Thanks for posting.
Taylor has this method of turning his phrasing into what I consider in my mind to be the definitive guitar solo. Nobody else has been able to achieve this, not Clapton, or even Peter Green for that matter. People can vary on who they think is best but all Taylor fans know who the real deal is at the end of that long and winding day. Phenomenal isn't the word.
@@chatae-shik1479 I have never read such a load of bollocks EVER on RUclips. It is not a matter of who's better or worse, they were all phenomenal guitar players. To use such verbal barf, you have GOT to be joking, please get serious!
Wow just came across this. Have to agree with mrmrmusicjam and others, this is INCREDIBLE--hits you right in the face, like you're there at the packed venue watching, cigarette going, beer in hand, sticky carpet, burstin' speaker cabs and forgettin all about work on Monday. Stunning live recording, fabulous Les Paul guitar and backing musicianship from an era lost except to those like us guys who APPRECIATE and KNOW!! To Mick Taylor we send our respect. Always.
Mayall's voice is different, but his talent is huge. He has assembled bands over and over that launched a great many careers. He has incrededible longevity indicative of legions of fans. He is fiercely commited to the genre. Perhaps when he sings he is showing us "the bare wires of his soul.
Mick Taylor is brilliant and one of my favorites. Mayall does not have a great voice, it is true but he does sound like one of his favorite blues singers, that being J. B. Lenoire. So, in a way it does work for me.
I was 35 years ago to buy this record. Even now, is a treasure. Guitar in this song of Mick Taylor was 18 years old I wanted to live. The cool thing I would ...
I was lucky enough to see them perform this at Woburn Abbey in July 1986. Barewires was a groundbreaking album featuring the best Mayall line up of them all. Taylor rocks!
I missed seeing the Bare Wires big band but caught this Laurel Canyon four piece at The Marquee. Taylor was pretty outstanding. I remember an extraordinarily lengthy slide workout that made all the glasses behind the bar rattle everytime he hit a certain note.
Andy-i was at the marque with 3 mates from school.This was my first rock concert if you can believe it.not surprising I became addicted.Thus the utubing somewhat later in life.I found the Marque set on some obscure section of utube -not the actual one but the one played in Paris the night before.Extraordinary what is now available if you have the time and the energy. Patrick Foster
The solo on the original studio version is awesome. The feedback intro alone is worth the price of admission. I thought it was a harp being sucked the first time I heard it!
Thank you SO much for posting this! I've been waiting for someone to for quite a while (I have this in storage, in someone else's house in another state 3000 miles away). Again--THANKS!!!
Despite Mayall's appalling vocals, this track is a collectible for Mick's innovative and intense playing. I had this on an LP many many years ago. One of those pieces of music you remember, but figure you'll never find or hear again. And then someone digs it up and posts it on You Tube. Thanks
oh don't get me wrong. i love clapton. i truly honestly do. and as far as songwriting i think clapton has some levels on mick and i absolutely adore "presence of the lord". but i am convinced mainstream status holds little in the terms of mick's guitar skills. as i believe that he could hold his own against EC. just that i don't think this man gets the credit he deserves =(. and thanks SO MUCH for the upload. =) i keep coming back to it. and do you know perhaps what album and year this is 4rm?
@vanu49 I actually agree it's only when some start with this guy this or that, however, there are some instances where one guy is better than an other!
The scariest I've ever heard young Mick play live with father Mayall or anybody since. Les Paul or Strat? Marshall or Fender. Controlled feedback at it's finest.
@@vanu49 I would think so since he was playing the Les Paul that Keith Richards played on the Tami Show. ruclips.net/video/rSKoGVlvCmU/видео.html But hear bending of the feedback that might suggest a whammy Bar. Could be the Bigsby on the Les Paul.
There's a live album recorded in Sweden which is the original source of this track. I cant recall the title but the album has a blue cover. I had it so i know what i'm talking about. Sorry not to be more helpful. You might find it in London.
Rating anyone "over" Clapton is really a bit much buddy listen to him he is superb. Mick Taylor was the best thing about the stones in that period to me, whom I don,t rate that highly anyway. Taylor is a virtuoso, saw him playing up close a few years back in a small club, it was better, much better than church ! thanks for the post.
Well, the stones was great for Him but was His down fall! He left an alcoholic and a heroin Junkie, Still deals with Alcohol. He commented and said that those who really know him, knows that (although he had fame and money at the time) he wished he had never joined not because of the band its self but he left with all kinds of Issues that plaque him to a lower degree today. His blessing became his curse!
When I left my woman tears made my eyes go bind I just couldn't bear to face the pain that I left behind There never was a builder So good he could repair he ruins I left behind On that gloomy day I started walking I started walking I was never a new man But paying for walking where people were free (These are the lyrics from the original studio recording)
I have to disagree with jsilence418. Clapton got all the credit for what Mick Taylor and Rory Gallagher could do way better. Don't get me wrong, Clapton is great but Rory would have burned his ass!!!!
Clapton is an asshole as a person and is mediocre on guitar at best his solos are boring he plays the same licks all the time i never understood the druged up GOD hype crap they tried to label him as, its musical blasphemy and JIMI HENDRIX will always be king of the hill
The important thing to remember is that Gallagher was a Clapton nut and 'learnt' The Beano album and Fresh Cream note for note, as did Taylor. Taste's early 'live' 1967 recording of Spoonful isn't a cover of the original it's a 'cover' of Cream's version. Cream played Belfast in 1967 and Taste were the support band. There is a great picture of Rory sitting by the side of Clapton's amp gazing up at him!! There were a million lead guitar players in London by 1969. They all learnt their trade from the same three albums.
@TheWacky46 rory gallagher? you are joking right? can you tell the difference? seriously? have you ever listened to John Mayalls bluesbreakers? or Fresh Cream? his sound alone is worth the price of admission !no one made a Les Paul bark in that way then, no one1 not Peter Green not Mick Taylor, not Bloomfield no one! go and listen.
Hes way more creative across an open jam than clapton ever was and this is just a jam, the drummer is killin it but its a redundant Jam with no arrangement to speak of at all just get in the saddle and ride
Ok- how much is MT influenced by Jimmy Page, who was in the yardbirds at this time? He is brilliant in doing it his way, of course- but, he sounds very Pagey on this recording to me.
i dont believe these who's better arguments, everyone has their own taste and as a young blues guitar trying-to-be I believe i can learn a thing or two from alot of these greats. btw way who is that woman see looks fimilar?
I don't get all the Mick Taylor Hype. He can definitely play guitar, and he was the best musician The Stones ever had, but thats not saying much. The stones were good rock song writers but nothing more. They had some great albums but their live performances always suffered from lack of musicianship. You add drugs to the mix and they down right sucked. So you get a guy who can actually play pretty well and he;s gonna stick out. As far as being a genius.. I think thats an overstatement.
Tyler Thompson: I'm agreed with you, Mick Taylor was the best guitar player the stones ever had, Brian Jones and Ron Wood in second place, Keith maybe good song writer and very bad guitar player. Sorry but that's my opinion. Excuse me my bad english.
Sorry, pal - calling him a genius is an understatement, check out his solos on Winter, Sway (with Carla Olsen) or TWFNO, his special touch has got something no other guitarist I've ever heard has. Tell me who plays better, I'll let you know what I think of them. As for the Stones, have you not heard any of their 72-73 stuff? I can't believe you can sit there with a straight face and tell me Sticky Fingers or Exile on Main Street has lack of musicianship, because we're clearly not hearing the same thing, man. I sure would like to know who you think is better, and I'm guessing it's the usual suspects.
I'm with you. Mick Taylor was the Stones' secret weapon, like Don Felder was for the Eagles. Underpaid and under appreciated. Exile on Main Street was a religious experience for me, I don't give a fuck if they were all on heroin or not.
What do you call a good guitar player Tyler ? Mick Taylor has the absolute best feel and vibrato in the business. His playing with the stones especially live is to die for .. and his slide playing is world class.
@@green323turbo Yes, agree 100% with you. Instantly recognizable, melodic, perfect phasing, speed when needed, original... just glad his Stones experience uncovered for the world some of the best rock/blues guitar ever laid to wax.
Mick took this song to another level than the studio version.
Way ahead of his time in 1968 (19 years old)
mick taylor is a nice bloke and plays a mean guitar. i met him after his show in woodstock, ny a couple of years ago.....he came out to sign anything you wanted
Woodstock,NY he had lost his voice.I was at that show!!
Taylor takes melodies where few dare to go. He's a giant and should be recognized as such apart from his band involvements. But whatever band he was with, he consistently pushed them to new levels of creativity. Listen to this and hear 4 yourself.
i always held mick taylor in high regards because of what he brought to the stones, but when i started hearing more of his pre-stones guitar work, i'm even more blown away.

Amen!

not a whole lot of people played with that much intense feeling back in 68..Mick was,and still is someone for the ages..

Great comment. I am in even more appreciation of Mr. Taylor.
Mick Taylor has a unique feeling when it come to the Blues. He is in his own class. Like in a Midnight Rambler version in Germany in 1973.

Bless old Mayall - can't sing to save his life, but he knew a good guitarist when he saw one...
When he HEARD one.
yeah , i still listen to the albums, but some of johns lyricscause the odd cringe, but yeah ,its like he had a secret stash of guitarists
Absolutely. His harp playing grated as well. especially after discovering Butterfield and Charley Musslewhite!
I disagree, he has a nice IMO.
Mick Taylor is brilliant and one of my favorites. Mayall does not have a great voice, it is true but he does sound like one of his favorite blues singers, that being J. B. Lenoire. So, in a way it does work for me.
Blues with a mix of psychedelic. Love it.
psychedelic? well, mayall thought it was a blues-jazz-fusion...
This track is Amazing. have it on the "Primal Solos" album. What a guitarplayer Mick Taylor was/is. Thanks for uploading
Youre welcome. Maybe you already did, if not, check out The latest Stones tour with Taylor on RUclips, its great.
Have a nice day.

Sorry Rob,but I like Mick Taylor a lot more without The Stones....
So do I, Ted, but Taylor gave the Stones something special. After he left the Stones they turn into a mediocre rockband!
That's where I heard it! Blew me away 4 decades ago, still does!
Me too, got this great Album.
There’s no way the Stones could have ever kept up with this guy.
I was 35 years ago to buy this record.
Even now, is a treasure.
Guitar in this song of Mick Taylor was 18 years old
I wanted to live.
The cool thing I would ...
Mick's greatest moment.
Fucking brilliant saw this at Marquee club 1968 a few feet from the band
You're a lucky man, John!
Mick at his best!
Also one of my favorites,fantastic solo !
I was lucky enough to see them perform this at Woburn Abbey in July 1986. Barewires was a groundbreaking album featuring the best Mayall line up of them all. Taylor rocks!
Many thanks for posting this. Anything new with Mick Taylor makes me a happy man. He's simply the best.
You wrote that 11 years ago and you're STILL spot on correct.
Love Mick Taylors Guitar sound, and John Mayall and the Blues Breakers, "Bare Wires" album is one of my all-time fav's!
I missed seeing the Bare Wires big band but caught this Laurel Canyon four piece at The Marquee. Taylor was pretty outstanding. I remember an extraordinarily lengthy slide workout that made all the glasses behind the bar rattle everytime he hit a certain note.

The lead on "Marriage Madness " will make you cry, along with the guitar
Love this song,fantastic solo!
Its a jam not a song !!
psychedelic blues! amazing!
Early Taylor track with stones. Jiving sister Fanny. Give a listen!
very unusual solo from MT to my ears any way....very impressive for the experimentation and his high skill level this early in his career.
I agree, unusual!
This version is originally featured on the 1977 compilation album "Primal Solos. Amazing stuff!!
This is definitely not the same version that's on primal soios......
One of the best Guitarsolos ever.
killer solo indeed, that's how blues should be played more often
great job on the clip by the way........
Mick in this record is 19 years old . . . Rember this !
Great solo indeed nice finish 👏
The solo on the original studio version is awesome. The feedback intro alone is worth the price of admission. I thought it was a harp being sucked the first time I heard it!
very good guitar solo
This is really amazing. Finger tapping in 1968. Damn
