I referenced the Black and Blue deep cuts on the Ranking thread. This version might make the Black and Blue version obsolete:


Love Billy Preston's backing vocals too.
I'm listening to it on TIDAL right now. It is great. The version of Fool to Cry is better than the LP version. The band sounds tight & vital. Also, a cool, eclectic set: the standard, but also dipping back into their blues roots.

This is the series of shows that began with Keith's drug bust, right? When we visited Toronto back in 2019, I made sure we visited the Western Harbour Castle and checked out the El Mocambo.
Yeah, i've listened to bits of it and it's all very good.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

By far my favorite tune on "Black & Blue", this version is fantastic.

I wonder why he feels the need to make her name a song by the band. She wears the t-shirt for fashion or just likes the design. She doesn't need to be a stones fan.

He's probably doing it in a friendly way, kidding around with student. That said, I fall on the the other side of the t-shirt question: if you're not a fan, you shouldn't be wearing their shirt. Every so often I want to get an Iron Reagan shirt, but I can't do it cos I ain't a fan.

That's complete and utter nonsense to me. There are millions of t shirt designs. Many people will not have a clue what the design means other than they like the image. If you like the Iron Reagan shirt you should wear one regardless. It's just an image at the end of the day. Providing it's not a political statement of hatred I see no reason why people shouldn't wear what they like oblivious to what group/organisation etc it's representing.

Band shirts signal fandom. It isn't just an image—it's a signal to others. Even when worn ironically—like that terrible KISS Yankees shirt that revbob got me—the joke is that someone would think I like that band/team.

I can't agree with that. Of course most wearers of a group etc will like the idea of promoting their fave artist or at least an artist they like. But if someone just likes the design I see no reason why they shouldn't enjoy wearing it either.

I see loads of young women wearing Pistols/Stones/Motorhead/Ramones shirts that are being sold and mass produced in high street chains as fashion accessories. I think it would be really snobbish of me to say hey you shouldn't be wearing that because you don't know any of their songs or who the lead singer is.

Well, that certainly explains all your Spandau Ballet t-shirts!
