gimmekeef I remember as a kid watching the Stones on Ed Sullivan Variety Show on Sunday nights.(the few times they wereon).This was way back in the 60's.I saw an old repeat this week on PBS.What a hoot!They did Ruby Tuesday with Mick out front,Bill on a big bass fiddle,Brian on flute sitting next to Keith who was playing piano!.Charlie was bashing away looking bored to tears.I actually remember waiting as a kid to the very end to see them.The laugh is who came on before them.There was a guy balancing himself on a wooden log,the Muppets,a lame comedian Alan King and then just before the Stones...there were 40 nuns from Pittsburgh singing Kumbaya!!!What an opening act they would have blown AC/DC right off the stage!Funny thing is as soon as I saw the log roller I remembered the Stones were on that show.
