• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

Great shots! Billy G sure looks different without the fuzz. The early 70s is my favorite era for the Stones, too. Sticky Fingers and Exile On Main Street are hard to beat. :2zone

You are correct about the Stones speed!!! I was listening to Brussels Affair this A.M. on the way to work. Killer live show from the '73 Euro tour. Mick Taylor made that band sound so good!! Keith's playing was terrific too at that point.

Yeah, makes you wonder what would have happened if Mick T. hadn't split. As much as I like Ronnie, Mick was the man!

If he wasn't always always either playing Pearly or standing next to Dusty, I would never recognize him in these old pics

Man I love that pic linked in the OP! I can't believe that was summer 1971. I was born Aug. 71:wah I see that Frank has a cigarette in his mouth. I can tell you first hand...never light a cig in between songs if your the drummer. You always end up with smoke in your eyes and then your trying to spit it out so you can play! :laugh2: Glad I gave that up. Smoking that is, not drumming..:hee

Although I'm glad he grew the beard. He looks like my 8th grade history teacher there..:rofl
