I have really been getting into these two songs recently
Great blusey tracks, my favourites at the moment. What do you all think of them?
It Hurts me too ("Jamming with Edward")
You Got to move ("Love you Live" version preferrably or "Sticky fingers" version)
just shows what masters at playing the blues the stones were.
Do you think they have recently lost their blues roots?
Ive yet to find another band that plays the blues as well as these two songs. does anyone know any other great blues tracks by stones or anybody else?

The song "Blue" from Mick Jagger or "The Storm", both b-sides (well singles CDs or whatever) are great blues
"NY Hustle" is a combination of blues, reggae and pop but the roots are there same in "Oh Nikki" and other tracks |

Also "Standing in the rain" is a nice recent blues sample of Jagger's roots |

Umm--Elmore James' 1963 version of IHMT is the one to listen to though there is an earlier '50s version that some are partial to. This was originally a Tampa Red tune but I have not heard his version in so long I don't even remember it.
Hound Dog Taylor also did a version of IHMT. Not quite E James, but still good stuff.
Interestingly, when Mick Taylor played YGTM in the late 80s and early 90s, he seemed to oscillate between YGTM and IHMT in the solos. I don't recall whether his '95 official release had this.
I've not heard the Peter Green/John Mayall version of IHMT on A Hard Road Remastered, but the band (Green, Mayall, McVie, Dunbar) did some pretty good stuff in the short time they were together. |

I have not heard 'NY Hustle', 'Oh Nikki' or 'Standing in the rain' i will download them, if i can find them.
yes the "The Storm" and "Fancyman Blues" are both fine examples of recent blues I had forgotten about them.
Thanks 'Pako Gerte' for your WISE words of wisdom :-)

This whole topic reminds me how saddend i was when Aerosmith released a blues album. Not sad that they did it, but sad that the Stones didnt do it first. YEs Yes Yes, i know that most of the early LPs had blues covers on them, but as a mature band, it would have been great to hear. Thinking something along the way of the Stripped Sessions recording of Honest I Do (also found on the Hope Floats SDTK) |

Clapton does 2 versions of IHMT - one is on From The Cradle. The other version was an outtake from the '70s that's found on the Crossroads box set. I happen to like the laid back outtake version. |

| VoodooChileInWOnderl |
Yes, that version is, by far, better than the one at "From The Cradle", also longer, what slide and Eric's voice there sounds like mine after 10 galons of tequilas!   |

Aerosmith's version of YGM is the best that I heard so far, Love You Live's version is good too but on Sicky Fingers is like out of place with so many good songs. |

exile, you simply must get yourself some elmore james. the man only plays in two keys (D and less commonly E) if memory serves, but he has the most haunting voice and the most haunting slide (a deadly combonation) in the history of recorded music.
well...what are you sitting around reading this post for? get up off your butt and get some elmore! |

(exile reads post by Starbuck then quickly gets up and leaves the house to buy some Elmore James)
Cheers Starbuck I definitely will do thanks for the tip.

I think Willie Dixon's has provided great material to be covered by ugly white folks like Mick. Some examples: Backdoor Man, I can't Quit You Baby, Ain't Supertitious, You Shook Me, Little Red Rooster

In my opinion, the Sticky Fingers one is far honest and original. |

IMO The Aerosmith version of YGM is too polished.
In addition, I am always stoked when Aerosmith
finds it important to cover songs the Stones have
already done a bang up job handling, as in Walking The Dog..
George Thorogood handled another Elmore tune good in
The Sky is Crying..
For those not familiar with the entire catalog of either
Elmore James or Mississippi Fred McDowell, go out and pickup something by either artist. You will not be dissapointed. |

There is a killer version of Five Long Years on Clapton's "From The Cradle", one of the greatest renditions of a blues standard. There are many many others on that disc. A must! |

as far as the blues unholy trinity, i would have to say elmore james, muddy waters and willie dixon. willie dixon's "i am the blues" is a perfect starter record.
as for delta blues, i am partial to mississippi john hurt myself, even more so than robert johnson.

From the 17 versions of You Gotta MOve I listed I think Aerosmith's is the worst, well not the worst the "less better" |

I don't know which is the best, all are great some so blue, some so deep, some touching, some so stone, but the one by Prince Far I is the most creative as it's a reggae version, in fact the name is When Jah ready you gotta move |

I may have missed it, but did anyone mention the intrumental version of IHMT on the Layla Box Set.
Just Duane and Eric jamming, trading licks. Awesome! |

That's the one I mentioned as my 5th version in alphabetical order as it is credited to "Derek and The Dominos" the only complaint is it's too short  |
