The diamond of the Stones. Mick Taylor will shine forever. He put passion before profit. Much respect for this gorgeous man !!!!

Had the rare pleasure of meeting Mick Taylor circa 2000 at the cock n bull where I saw him listed on venue. At the venue I recogonized him to his surprise and asked if he would play this song. He replied yeah sure sounds familiar who wrote that? I replied it will come to you. It did and spontaneously he played on stage and really well I might add. What a fun night. I new the song because driving to palm springs I stopped at a circle K and bought a cassette called guitar heroes- Hendrix Page Clapton, Santana, Taylor and others. After the show he thanked me for reminding him, Stellar dude!

This sounds very Jeff Beck influenced ..right on !!! Mick T rocks

spectacular song and playing. Mick uses three genres : rock, county and jazz fusion(the key change and sounding a bit like a steely dan quitarist)

Have always loved this wonderful tune and the masterful touch and tone of Mick Taylor.  One of the most underrated guitarists ever!

An absolute beautiful song and one of my favorite Mick Taylor guitar performances Ever. The mix of his sweet Les Paul tone and country bluesy phrasing for the songs first half are perfect.. but than it goes into the breakdown where a melancholy flavored melody is brought in and Mick changes the mood with one of the most beautiful longing solo's I have ever heard.. using a Stratocaster with a vintage trem bar that he uses to pull Saxophone like sounding passages of Beauty out of. Then he brings the Les Paul back in to close the song out with a hopeful sounding and so very melodic fadeout . I love this side of Mick Taylor's guitar playing. I consider him one of the most melodic, soulful musicians I ever had the pleasure to learn about and his tone was always sweet and gorgeous. A huge influence to my own love of guitar.

UMM: one of me Fave Ever songs,Evah>out if a zillion and umm! GIDDY UP!!!

Yup. The Stones in the 'Taylor era' were the best. Very average stuff ever since. Lowell was probably the greatest 'combo' ever - Great songwriter, great voice and a great, soulful guitar player.

Lowell shoulda put words to this...

One VERY thoroughly awesome underrated obscure kickass song, one to play at 3AM on the stereo on a Saturday night in one's living room while sipping Merlot. Whatta tune! Pure genius! Very VERY catchy! :)))

Ron Wood is not Mick but he was never a slouch on guitar. Leavin' the stones was the best move for Mick. I would say Ron is still in that Masterclass category as Mick but not anywhere as innovative.

I bought a CD for a buck at a flea market called Guitar Hero's and this song was on it. Awesome song! Probably the best dollar I ever spent.

I love this album. I have 4 vinyl copies and 2 CDs.
