- Hope these can be enjoyed before ABKCO yanks my efforts again.
To ABKCO and/or Stones management: It's obvious I have a lot of bootlegs from the 1972 and 1973 tours. Maybe more than you? You just, you know, let me know if you want any help bringing this great unheard music to the light of day instead of, you know, having RUclips pull all this great music.
Gimme Shelter's instrumental twin guitar break is one of the greatest in rock 'n' roll history. Complimented by Keith Richards monstrous, burn your house down rhythm guitar slashes, Mick Taylor enters serious neo-psychedelic blues - third eye, mercurial - guitar territory and proves he was one of the greatest most inspired guitar players of the 60's/70's. For five short years the Stones, with Taylor proved that they truly were the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the world. Remember them this way.
Couldn't have said it better, mate. Kudos!
Cool !
just watch Ladies and Gentleman the Rolling Stones - Greatest Stones ever - because of Mick Taylor.............
We will remember
I think Mick Taylor's is the best but in 1995 Ronnie Wood did a pretty good job and Lisa Fischer blew it out of the Universe, but still Mick Taylor was the Sh*t there is no question about it....
In that 1st version, Mick Taylor plays a scintillating, angry solo from start to finish, still blows me away!
When I first heard this version it was off the bootleg which the stones bought the rights too ironically. Mick Taylor absolutely rips the solo. It has every trick in a lead guitar players dreams. I think it comes down to the stones love/hate with Philly. They were constantly being pelted with change and bottles. Jagger addressed it a couple times. Quote we want your money but not coins in our face lol
@@1sonicgavs920 Mick Taylor is the perfect 70s guitar god on these recordings. He is just unbelievable.
I was in the audience for the 1st show. I read that MT was pissed about having to do an extra afternoon show. Maybe that's why his attack is so....
Unquestionably one of the finest live guitar solos ever performed!
No doubt... Free, soaring, melodic, musical, and driving..., and let's not forget that thick tone. Just wow..!! ❤😅
I wish Mick Taylor never left the Stones. He was on fire here. They were at their peak with him.
I was at this concert in Phila back in '72. I can't believe how tight a band they were then. I don't think they ever topped that tour. Taylor is superb on this version. Wish they had him play it on their 50th anniversary shows.
I was there too, and I agree, they were incredibly tight that night... Saw them in 81 and thought they were horrible... Said I'd never go see them again and haven't... They were so much better with Mick Taylor.....
@@Thegoodwizard When I saw them again in '75 I just felt that something was off or missing. Looking back and listening to these youtube excerpts of the concerts I think it was losing Taylor that made a big difference to their sound at least in concert. He gave them both muscle and drive and yet had incredible feeling for softer sounds with his guitar playing. Your experience in '81 seems to have mirrored mine from '75.
That was the Greatest rock and roll band ever
@@marshallmyrman I agree.
I only listen to the Taylor years of Stones
To me, the rolling stones were a five year band
Mick Taylor is awesome, fantastic, a genius! I have no words to describe his unsurpassed talent!
I'm sure he'd love knowing Beethoven said that!
Yeah, I think so! And thaks for your comment.
Taylor really is in a league of his own! I've never heard anything like his incandescent playing.
You can hear where Slash got a lot of his technique from
I don’t believe he ever played this song the same way twice. While they were all at the top of their game, it’s like Taylor is on another planet with his soloing. Phenomenal.
I was there ❤
Mick was and still is an absolute genius. The only real musician of the band, and so modest, discreet, always standing back, no show off , concentrated on his guitar...Pure music, a lesson for most of rock'n' roll guitarists....
Hahahahah! What a load of bollocks, no offense intended. Just whst us a "real musician?"
@@klausrain111 someone who 's able to improvise, for instance...not a clown...
Simply the best ever..Mick T and Keith at their zenith !!!
As far as I’m concerned, I’d be happy going to a 1972 tour stop where they found a way to extend this song to a couple of hours. Mick Taylor is a guitar deity.
the 1972 Stones were the greatest rock & roll band ever - period !!!
A big thank you to RUclips that allows us to see/hear these old classics. Every time I think I've heard the best Mick Taylor guitar work, I land on something like this version. He just burns through this - which is exactly what rock is supposed to do. Can't find a Stones song close to this intensity after he left. Pity.
"He just burns through this"
I was trying to think of a word that accurately describes the sound of this performance and you've helped me out. It's a scorching sound. Wish I'd have been there, you can feel the moody adrenaline oozing out of the amp
@carl77724 @Steve Bell. I agree with you both. Taylor was absolutely MOLTEN! All of the Stones were at the top of their game but Taylor was on another planet. His solos on so many of these shows were otherworldly and added depth and dimension to an already great band. Especially ‘72-73 tours, so many incredible live shows available today thank God.
there are a few, miss you live 1978 texas posted by motorcycle and rock n roll, comes close and the Japanese kanji version of Amsterdam 1995 with Lisa Fischer, but not like these, close with Ronnie Wood but not Mick Taylor, so that is that judge for yourself, I do like Mick's guitar playing on Miss You in 1978 and the comments are funny, ronnie has a moment in 1995 Amsterdam, but it seems cut short ?? also Charlie gets some long over due fan credit in Amsterdam RIP amigo
Mick Taylor and his backing band!
I was in the audience of the July 21 show- I read MT was pissed about having to do an afternoon show...maybe that's behind the attack...words cannot do justice to this!!
Jeeeezus Christ. the rifffs.. aaarrrrrrrgh. so raw so urgent so utterly rock n roll. Go on MT!!!!! *love* : )))))
Taylor can blowing every mind with his awesome guitar solos.
Well, that’s how it’s done, son. Mick Taylor killing it.
Such an evil sound coming out Taylor's guitar
I think MT's performance here is the best of a rock musician ever (first gig)
Mick taylor is just unbelievable the best stones guitarist by a mile just a genuis listen to it
Best guitar playing that ever happened anywhere at any time
I was there, as a nineteen year old from Holland, and the show was amazing. Mick Taylor playing it was great.
This is when the Stones were a locomotion train with a furnace full of coal .........Keith shovelling it in and Taylor and Jagger steaming down the track .......unstoppable
Love Mick Taylor, I agree with you this is the best ever. Thank you ..
Oh the gorgeous Mick TAYLOR. SO wish I could see him playing this.
mick Taylor.....just....
WOW!!!
Taylor here has a sustained drive, incrementing his solo to perfection, with a quite astounding lift toward the end... this cannot be learned, it is deeply felt. Just emoting guitar playing, where virtuosity it at the service of the song. This is the difference between Taylor and most other guitar players... emotion comes first.
you are right . i was in the 7/21 first show. I read that MT was pissed about having to do an afternoon show. Maybe that is why his attack is so....
first heard this in the mid '70s when i bought a record called Mick Taylor We Miss You.....awesome tour
Iconic, simply iconic 🙏🏻✌🏻🎸🎸🎸🎸💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
Hello Naomi, I’d knew I’d find you hanging around with such good taste.
I hope they play this at my funeral. There's nothing I like better musically than "Gimme Shelter".
Mick Taylor wow what tremendous unbelievable guitar master early 70s mick Taylor and stones blows me away everytime could listen to this all day .
RIP Charlie watts ,the legendary drummer❤️
Probably their greatest performance of this GREAT song !!!
stick around for the second Philly show 1972
there is this one in 1995, with Lisa ruclips.net/video/EoCCSh1FVZE/видео.html
i was three when this happened but, i am a huge fan of Mick Taylor bootlegs with the Stones... what was it like to watch them in the Mick Taylor era? did anyone realize how great he was or was everyone caught up in the other Mick, and Keith, and the music. it just amazes me that he didn't become totally worshiped by the millions of Stones fans, or maybe he did, or maybe it was just the people who loved the music even more than the showcase...
I was in the audience for the July 21 show. Also the 1969 concert at the Spectrum. Just incredible performances . Stones at their absolute peak. And yes, we knew just how good they were. Just listen to the audience reaction.
This first version, which I refer to as the "thank you Philly" version, is my favorite version of Gimme Shelter.
No one mentions this, but the "other" Mick, the one who sings, is also at his best on this version.
Also, among the uploads of the "thank you Philly" performance that I have heard, this upload has the cleanest sound quality.
Beautiful
My first Stones concert @ The Spectrum!! Mick in his velour riveted jump suit, scarves, glitter on his eye lids... oh my God!!! Stevie Wonder was there , Billy Preston... and the music was phenomenal as you can tell by this recording...
the greatest playing of Gimme Shelter that Mick Taylor and the Stones ever played.
No listing to Gimme Shelter at the Bussels Affair concert That's the best Gimme Shelter with Mick Taylor 1973 Its Superbad
Absolut !!!!
Washington dc 4 th of july is brillant……
How can you choose? Which of your children is your favorite?
I have spent many years with my headphones trying to decide which live version of Shelter is the best. This has long been one of my favorites along with Brussels, London, Ft Worth. I am really no closer than when I’d begun. They were all glorious! This is not only my favorite Stones song but imho possibly the GOAT of rock songs. No doubt at that time, 1969-1974 the Stones really were the greatest in the world. A big part of that was Taylor’s gifts. Truly a top three guitarist in rock history. He’s never fully gotten his due as far as I am concerned.
Mick Taylor and Keith Richards together playing live in 1972 is absolutely fucking incredible. Keith wrote both guitar on Gimme Shelter and Mick Taylor Just shredded it live
Greatest band of all time, and this was their absolute peak, with Mick Taylor at his very best and before Keith brought Ronnie along and took them back to more of a rock and roll band. This was as glamorous as they got, they got the mix between Rock, Rock and Roll and Glam right in the years of 72' and 73' in my NOT so humble opinion.
On July 21st in 1972 in Philly 2 shows in 1 day. That's crazy how they did 2 shows in 1 day back then
I was at the Matinee show on that Friday. My older brother took my twin sister and I for our 12th birthday. Thanks bro!
timeless excellence
The best version EVER !!!!
A group effort. Every one of them - BILL KEITH MICK MICK CHARLY - fantastic!
this was my first concert ever! I left Boy Scout Summer camp a day early to attend!
I was there and glad to see stones in the raw. I stil love them Gimmie Shelter is my fav
Mr mick taylor you killed this.amazing talent❤️❤️❤️
best ever versions back to back great !!!
I have always considered the London 1973 performance to be the best of all time, but the first Philly show here competes with it for best.
Precious Stones -
Good to hear again
the 2cnd one here is SOOOO much better than the first. Taught, angry, power-packed. Awesome. Best ever
taut, angry, power-packed > terrific!
Agreed Jagger's voice is much clearer
I saw them in L.A. during this tour. By popular demand they added a special Saturday afternoon show (of course they also played that night). So I drove the 40 miles or whatever down there from the West Valley and bought a $10 ticket for $15 from a scalper.
Magic Taylor !!!!!!!!!!!
Guitar Heaven
Mick Taylor the greatest of all time !
C’est magnifique!!!
👍la meilleure version de gimme Shelter en live .
The versions of "You can't always get what you want" from the same 2 shows are also just Brilliant. One in particuliar is the Best version of all time...IMO.
Rolling Stones 1972-73 when they were truly the Greatest.
My older sister was at the 2nd show, she still has all of her ticket stubs & T Shirts of all the shows she saw in Philly back in the 70’s, (she has the untouched full Zeppelin ticket from a canceled show in late 70’s ) I’m the baby at 53 and although I’ve seen the 81 tour & again in 2013 - 50 year anniversary with Mick Taylor , nothing matches that 72 tour 🎶🎸!!!! I fwd this to her & she said “THANKS FOR THE FLASHBACK” 😂🍄😂
Back in 1972 The Rolling Stones were the band that looked like a band should look like bad ass stripped down and solid like a rock And the music that came out of those amps no other band could couldnt touch them They were SUPERBAD
I will never forgive myself for passing on a chance to see Taylor solo at a hundred seat venue in Tampa in about 89.
mick Taylor left in 74, what you would have seen was Ronnie wood
Incredible. Like a freight train.
Excellent! Love the back-to-back songs. I could listen to this all day!
Mick Taylor was on fire! That’s the sound you want from your guitar.
Holly Shit....nothing better that this solo..Mick Taylor is God!!
Mick Taylor................this first Philadelphia version of Gimme Shelter is the greatest live version ever. The unbelievable guitar work of Mick Taylor and the tightness of the band make for a moment of sheer perfection. IMO the top five Rock and Roll songs of all time {in whatever order..........for various reasons} are: The End {Doors} Stairway to Heaven {Zeppelin} Gimme Shelter {Stones} A Day in the Life {Beatles} and I'll have to think about the fifth one.
The best version of the band. This version is called, "Mick Taylor-and the Rolling Stones." Mick was nice enough to let the other four back him up.
Mick Taylor and the Rolling Stones should have been the bands name.
The best MICK T EVER RIGHT THERE IN PHILLY
nothing like this solo version..nothing...just get "something" and ya seeeeee....BEST ROCK AND ROLL IN HISTORY
Carlos Teran agreed. Almost unbelievable a band could be this great.
I hear better and better versions of GS '72--this is MT's masterpiece...so far. Allman / Dead tune length, too. I suspect he was permitted to stretch out in matinee shows. MJ reads off-stage, lines.
Man can Mick Taylor Play some great solos i remember finnding live 1972 bootlegs and when i heard Taylors solos i was amazed Nobody gets the sound that Taylor Gets Hes just a great guitar player Its a shame the new era Rolling Stones fans dont really remember him live in concert
We love this version of Gimme Shelter, as we do with Empire Pool 1973's version, as we do with most performances when Mick Taylor used to play with the Rolling Stones.I am thankful to the Internet and RUclips to allow us to listen to it.
I remember sweating my butt off at football practice wishing i could be there back in July 1972!
This is fantastic! These Philadelphia '72 shows are, along with Altamont '69, the best live performances of Gimme Shelter.
Taylor was outstanding!
Thanks.
holy crap.... is there ever good.
I was at the July 21st show in Phila in '72. Thanks a million for uploading these versions. My best concert I ever attended by far. Ah youth, seems so long ago at this point. Lets hope the ABKCO jerks leave this up for everyone to hear just how great the Stones were in their glory days.
Stones rolling over 300watt ampeg svt era, amazing Mick Taylor on guitar, keith blowing up our punchs
I was bless to went 72,73,75,2006
The best part of the whole thing, better even than Taylor's solo {in the first version..........the first version is the best} is the part at the very end commencing at 4:52 until the song ends at 5:18. It is Keith Richard at his best {playing rhythm guitar} along with Taylor. They are playing the basic "riff" of the song in unison and that is rock and roll at its very best {Jagger is also very good doing his thing as are Watts and Wyman.} Riveting.
Super nice thank you!
3 immense versions of this immense hit :
1- This (these 2) Philadelphia 1972 (superlative duo : angel Mike Taylor + master Keith Richards)
2- Virginia (Norfolk) 1972 ( unfortunately betrayed by the recording quality)
3- The original album version with the dream voice of Merry Clayton and unique Keith's intro.
and many great others, especially in the 1969-1973 period (Brussels 1973, London1973...)
Incomparables , con taylor sonaban fantasticos
Dc on the 4th of july is fantastic too
My god, listen to Taylor lift off!
I got see Mick in Newark and in Boston with the Stones, was amazing. I wish he did more than a couple songs tho. My mother saw them in '69 and '72 in Boston, I have the bootlegs of the shows she went to, brilliant performances.
I lived just outside Philly from ' 69 - ' 78 . My first Stones show was in '78 - SomeGirls ' , just before moving to Boston .
I named my new kitten - Keith .
Love it !!
You like show tunes, Broadway musicals, and wear skinny tight jeans too, right?
Not really. I drive race cars at Watkins Glen at 170 MPH, hanging on for my life. What do you do??
I had a McLaren 650S and Ferrari 458 grid with me. Really, what are these guys doing here???
I named one of my cats Charlie.
GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@truckVES Thanks for referring me to those other fine examples of "Gimme Shelter" live. I also strongly concur with you about Mick Taylor.
Complete Fucking Awesomness!!
Es un exquisito deleite escuchar a los stones , su mejor epoca los sesentas y principios de los setentas , jagger con una enorme potencia en la voz , Richard en la guitarra ritmica , bill con su bajo , charly siguiendo y dando un excelente ritmo en la bateria , y la exquisitez y virtuosismo de taylor en los solos , hacian de las piedras. Una banda jamas igualada
I've heard literaly 100's of live Gimme Shelter, live as well, and well this version just IS....
Gimme Shelter on ADDERALL!!!!!
You want the best....here it is
The London version has the cool intro. But my favorite is the Philadelphia 2nd show.
Relentless electricity. In awe still after listening every day for a week and a half straight.
@@jme23 Well I prefer the first show but there both killers. Classic examples of why the Stones were selling out 75,000 seat arenas in less than an hour...and NO internet!!!
🙏🙏🙏🙏TAK SMUKKE DEJLIGE DRENGE FOR SANGENE👍HELD OG LYKKE😘🤩🥰😍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
My first Sones concert too!!!
the top together Taylor and Keef
Mick Taylor: son meilleur solo sur Gimme Shelter (le 21 juillet 1972)
Es increíble cómo Taylor parece Hendrix en el solo de guitarra
This is absolutely an amazing version (1st show). The mix doesn't help, the guy must have been on Taylor's side of the stage bootlegging it! BTW, this was the last tour with the late, great Nicky Hopkins. Not taking away from Billy Preston, but they were two totally different animals. I prefer Hopkins on the acoustic piano to the electric keyboard that Preston was a master of.
The 1973 Australian tour was the last tour with Hopkins. There's a bootleg called Happy birthday Nicky/Rocks Off of the Perth show. A pretty good Gimme Shelter from that bootleg also.
You're right, I forgot that was a separate tour. Gimme Shelter with the wah-wah is great.
These are soundboard recordings, not audience recordings.
That explains the lack of an actual mix, I suppose.
I'm a Nicky's fan too. He was a fantástic musician. I adore his concerts with the stones. I like the charisma of billy preston. But that mysterious corner in darkness of Nicky is just amazing.
@catcheez This was from The Spectrum in Philly. I wasn't born yet but one of my Dad's friends was at the show and remembered it when I played him the bootleg. It can be found under "Unreleased Decca Bootleg".
That high note lead,heaven,first time i admire this kind of guitarist.I like hiis style than hendrix
Los mejores stones, en su mejor epoca , todos en sintonia perfecta , mick taylor un genio y virtuoso en su guitarra y junto a keith , hacian de los stones la mejor banda del mundo ,
Jagger a dit les groupes font du rock les stones sont le Rock 😅 mick a raison les stones le plus grand groupe du monde .
All right, in that 2nd version, MT is playing the intro, right? & then he & Keith switch off! Wow, unbelievable!!!
God I might have been there. Saw them at the Spectrum just not sure which day.
