Really? So, who wrote "Brown Sugar," "Start Me Up," and "Sad, Sad, Sad?" Mick Taylor and Ron Wood?



As Throwaway already has said, Brown Sugar and Sad Sad Sad are all Michael Jagger.

Whatever dude....Rocks Off was originally an open G song - regardless how he plays it now...

And I know he has played Gimmie Shelter in std tuning as of late - and that is a song that was originally written in open E tuning. So up your ass my friend!



You're a real class act -- but still wrong.

Mel Belli About "Rocks Off." For yuks, I looked at my Hal Leonard tab book for "Exile." It has the song in a "modified open-G tuning" -- EGDGBD. I suppose it's possible, but highly unlikely. I can't imagine Keith using that tuning when standard would be so much simpler.

Oh...since Hal Leanord says so lol
Just about every song on Exile is in open tunings - I'm sure all of the guitars keith had lying around in Nice were in open G...and I believe Rocks Off was the 1st song recorded for the album in France...

Are there any songs on Exile in STD tuning? (besides Taylor's parts, obviously)

I'm not saying it's an impossibility -- just highly improbable, especially for Keith. I mean, take the bridge section, with its C#m chord. Has Keith ever played a C#m in open G, before or since "Rocks Off"? He's done Am, Bm, Em -- but his C#m has always been the fourth position, standard tuning...
