I've been reading the new book "According to the Rolling Stones" and I've found the personal accounts written by artists and producers who've worked with the Stones to be most intriguing. Producer Don Was mentioned a few things that really moved me along with Sheryl Crow's experience of first meeting and performing with the band in '95. Don Was: "They can walk out on stage and sooth the souls of 100,00 people - each of whom has their own unique set of troubles. 2 hours later they all leave feeling emotionally whole and linked to a global community of millions." Don explained how he perceived each of the Stones and their own special personalities (that we all know & love) but I still had a sense of first getting to know them all over again. Sheryl Crow mentioned how sick she was with nerves before going on stage at Joe Robbie Stadium to perform "Live With Me" on a pay-per-view show in '95. She took a big swig of tequila from Bobby's bottle right before she went on stage (thankfully he was there to hand it to her). She said she first met Mick when she walked on stage that night and grabbed his hand. As he led her around the stage she realized she was with the man she always dreamt of meeting, and being, when she was younger. She said she always wondered what it would be like to be in the Rolling Stones. She knows she never will be but she got a taste of what it's like for a little while...I could type for hours here. Need I say this book is recommended reading? |

Wow, if the Stones ever had a female member of their group (today there is Lisa, mind you) back in the heyday, Sheryl Crow is a perfect choice. Embodies the Stones spirit for sure. I like most of her work, especially that rockin' bluesy debut from over 10 years ago, Tuesday Night Music Club. Bottom line; the Stones are legends and they profoundly affect everyone they work with or get to know. |
