Taylor is a legend. I had the privilege to watch him in Vancouver. A small venue ...... real old-skool blues style :) It was the f@ckin best. He's guitar solo's with Keith Richard's riffs were the best ever in Rock history
I played the Edinburgh Blues Festival/Caledonian Brewery...we went on and he followed us. Such respect and his slide playing was superb as was the whole band. I performed there again and in the band hospitality room is a picture of Mick and myself which funny enough my wife found amongst all the pictures on the wall. Honor to have met him and I got to play his beautiful Les Paul...just one of the gems in my life on the road.
Brian Jones played on the original Little Red Rooster... however Mick Taylor was a great addition to the Stones and played on many of their great songs..
Can count on one hand the no. of live shows I've been to in the last 25 yrs., but I was at this one-Bernard Purdy on drums. Taylor as fluid a player as could ever be heard, such tasteful, deep, melodic blues! Most memorable.
Just came across your 7 year old youtube comment about "12 of the greatest nights" on a b-day with Mick Taylor. I can't believe no one has asked. So what's the story?
@@jorgeramirezcamarena4904 _Bingo_ Yes, huge Moodies fan. Those 7 LP's are _truly awesome._ Rick & Morty makes me think & laugh, excellent stuff. And my name is also Rick, so...
Saw him in the 90`s in Buenos Airs opening a show for Eric Clapton. Tks to Mick Taylor I did not loose my money ! He played blues and rock, Clapton played pop music in the Phil Collins way. I almost left the show in the middle of Clapton`s part.... Taylor is really great !
I love you Mick , you led me to the slide my friend , which has givin me peace on earth. Please lose weight or the world will lose another legend , way to soon. I see you are playing a Strat more these days , good move.
Does anyone know what the make of that Strat is....is it armed with Lace Sensors or what are they....EMGs or what...?? Appreciate any feedback from learned ones
Why do people insist on comparing for "the best"? Each musician is different. Each contributes his/her own personal touch. Can you imagine if we only had one "best" musician? How fast would life become totally boring?Learn to appreciate each musician for what he/she brings to the table. Love them all and pray they never go away.
@@theartfuldodger935 "Battering his women", bad as it is, wasn't confined to Brian Jones. Many others did so and still do. But Brian's contribution to the Rolling Stones is undoubted and he started them off. But like so many others also he couldn't deal with being overshadowed by the lead singer. They're always a band's front-man."Misogynistic", no more or less than other rock stars.
@@paulherring2434 "Many others did so and still do". So that makes it OK to excuse his behavior? Pathetic. In the end, Brian Jones contributed NOTHING to the band and for that reason he was fired.

He met Mick and Keith and enjoyed a free ride until he self-destructed.
@@theartfuldodger935 Well Dodger, you have your opinion on Brian Jones and you're sticking to it. That said, by not reminding us here of the shortcomings of other popstars, yet quickly pointing out Brian's, aren't you reflecting a jaundiced and prejudiced view of him?
Mitch Kenvin I totally agree! Keith Richards is greatest rhythm guitarist but the stones never have really had a gut wrenching, screaming lead guitar since Mick Taylor. Imagine Joe Bonamassa playing lead and jettison Ronnie Wood.
@@mr.d.4175 because he never really played blues or rock/blues and deep purple belong to hard rock which a different genre than what Hendrix, Page, Taylor... would play
Too much phasing on this guitar ! what for ? MT has always been among my favorite guitarists because his playing is so fluid and natural. Especially his solos : on every occasion he uses the best possible choice of notes, no question about that. As a guitarist myself, he has always been so inspirational for me.
I saw this musician four times in two days. 1969 at the Chicago Amphitheatre. front center both Micks about 10 to 15 feet away. He quit the band since he was getting addicted to smack. I love his playing on ::"Can't you hear me Knockin" Alternate. His tone is gorgeous.
He's a great guy....met him in ac...he invited me to come back and have a drink with him I met him after the show he's a wonderful man the nicest guy you'll ever want to meet
Kev Dean : We all know Keith’s riffs. Been hearing them for fifty years. It doesn’t hurt to show some appreciation for MICK TAYLOR because he deserves it !!!!!
I saw The Stones at the LA Forum. Stevie Wonder was the opening act, and MT played his ass off with The Stones. It's just not the same without Brian or Mick. Then again, I prefer der blooz.
Haven't seen Mick since he was a kid playing with Mayall at U of Manitoba in Winnipeg sometime in the sixties. No one is a kid anymore but he still has the chops
He was only 20 when he joined the stones and he idolized Keith and followed him full tilt into the drug world. He said he quit to save his life. The party lifestyle became too much.
He left because Keith was knee deep in heroin addiction and Mick Taylor was getting dragged into it. He said he would of died if he stayed with the band. Mick jagger didn’t want him to leave. Let’s just say that there was no rehab clinics back in the early 70s. Mick Taylor chose saving his life over being in a band with heroin addicted Keith. Mick Taylor did a interview explaining all of it. Look it up.
For a long time after he left the Stones, Mick Taylor had the nickname "The Only Man to Leave the Stones Alive!", a reference to the earlier death of Brian Jones. He will always be immortal through his contribution to Rock and Roll history but he will always be remembered best, as far as I'm concerned, for one of the Rolling Stones most excellent tunes, "Can't You Hear Me Knockin" from the "Sticky Fingers" album waaaaaaaaaaay back in 1971. One wonders what musical direction the Stones would have gone if Taylor had remained in the group...
Ha Ha , don't I know it Dave, keeping up with all the shows right now! You'll see I posted my comment 11 months ago, before we knew he was on the shows.. brilliant!!
Ronnie Wood was a better fit personality wise. The improvement was Woody wasn't so much of a technical guitarist. This better suited Keith Richards playing style. The reality is Keith and Ronnie were able to weave as they call it. And it helped Ronnie Woods was a better team player. Ronnie didn't whimper like a little bitch , his looks and personality were far superior to the likes of Mick Taylor.
Have you never heard of Peter Green, Rory Gallagher, Eric Clapton, etc etc?, Mick was pretty cool on slide after Dave Kelly, on normal guitar nowhere near the best!, Sorry mate but I saw them all live, Taylor with John Mayall. T
@@kevinobrien1259 ........Fleetwood Mac in the Peter Green days were my all time favourites yet I stand by my opinion and of course you are entitled to your opinion.. Being in my 70s I have also seen them all.

Great performance. I did not expect Mick to sing but he has got it. lovely performance
He just has the sweetest slide sound,right up there with Bonnie Raitt,David Lindley,Ry Cooder and Sonny landreth.
Duane?
Oh, dude, you hit the nail on the head. Mick Taylor is simply amazing.
The best slow smooth vibrato too
Also
Best guitarists the Stones ever had! Too bad it couldn't have lasted.
That honored him, Mick and Keith are more businessmen than
Bluesers :-)

Beer for voice, Harmony for soul, Music for Mick Taylor.
Master of the note. My God what a sound this man can make. Beautiful.
One of the best E-V-E-R blues/blues-rock guitarists.
Such a clean clear and so smooth sound nobody plays slide like mick...ry cooder maybe
I always thought he was the best guitarist John Mayall played with.

Underrated guitarist ,,he deserves more accolade like any other blues guitarists
Well Done Mick Taylor
Dougie Maxwell Western Australia
Truly phenomenal. What a gifted person he is.
Still playing gotta love it...
Couldn’t have been a coincidence that he played on some of their greatest albums.
Brian Jones played on the original Little Red Rooster... however Mick Taylor was a great addition to the Stones and played on many of their great songs..
Time waits for no one... is an all-time classic that only Mick can play.
He was the best guitarist the Stones ever had
He was the best thing to happen to the Rolling Stones
Simon Lacey And perhaps the Stones were the best thing in his life.
Mick & Mick were the real Glimmer twins

fantastic style master blues guitar master. hum hum hum......
One of the elite guitarists that I have had the pleasure seeing through my life.

Mick was the only musician to join the band that ever came close to matching Brian's contribution/talent. Highly under-rated in my opinion.

Pre-1968 Brian, maybe. I dunno. Mick was one HELL of a lead guitarist. Brian was a misogynistic little drug addict who enjoyed battering his women.

Just great rythem and blues soulful and basic but still awe inspiring love his solo albums blind willie mctell killer song
Kind of ironic that the Stones unquestionable best run was with this guy.
Why?
Are you an idiot? 1969 Let it Bleed to 74, was unquestionably their greatest period.

Mick Taylor is the most underrated guitarist in historory
This is easily Jeff Beck, Jimmi Page or Jimi Hendrrix class
There's that underrated word again.
Disagree .... there's Hendrix class and then you can sort out the rest.

@@philmontejano5971 Not quite
Mick's cover of "Red House" is unbelievably good. Of course, Mick and Jimi knew each other, and played together.
Why oh why, did he leave the Stones? He will always be known as a Rolling Stone. A guitar virtuoso who contributed to the Rolling Stones music.

I think that Keith wanted his mate Ron and it's one of the reason why.
