#I actually think Ronnie got the analogy right there#Charlie was a fireworks display#every take was unique and he was full of so many different colors and tricks and little subtleties#and his sparks (ie his cymbal work) was always amazing#whereas Steve just…hits out a beat. often in a kind of dragging time signature#so there’s that#as far as what Keith said#I don’t find it especially sensitive or nice#but you know once he gets on the ‘after Charlie left us’ track that he’s going to be that way#it’s a very different thing than ‘after Charlie passed’ or ‘after Charlie got sick’#all about that deliberate betrayal he still feels#anyway#I’ll believe an album after this when I see it#they were teasing this one for literally almost two full decades#and said multiple times from 2012 on that it was ‘almost done’ and ready to go#they’re free to do what they want#but they know the truth#that none of this work will become part of the ‘real’ stones canon#this is just passing the time#the rolling stones#charlie watts#keith richards#mick jagger#ronnie wood#quote
