Of course you absolutely correct over vinyls. the supremacy of the 7" vinyl singles and much else. I would argue that the Taylor/Richards combination is the most potent in the band's history - comparing what Ronnie Wood did with the Faces versus what he has done with the Stones suggrets the Stones have not bought out the best in him. The series of live LPs we have released (www.1960s.london) shows that live Brian Jones was capable of delivering the goods when he could be bothered. His slide on Little Red Rooster is a high water mark. But listen to virtually any live recording of the Stones from Hyde Park in 1969 through to the US tour in 72 and you will conclude that Richards and Taylor were just the best.
We will have to respectfully disagree. I repeat: You DO NOT relegate Keith Richards strictly to rhythm. I stand by what I wrote -- I feel they are at their best with Brian, though some of my fave Stones singles are from the Little Mick era. But this isn't a hair to be split and start nuclear war. Everyone has their preferences.
