OF THE
TIMES
Heosphorus constant images of big bottoms twerking on cop cars in the middle of an intersections or twerking in airports with butt cracks showingI forget where it was but it was re Brian Jones and the Stones and this song came on and I thought of your, HFL's and others' points there so here's 'No Expectations' - as noted in a comment there:
Tomasz Rachwald 2 years ago Jagger: "That's Brian playing [the slide guitar]. We were sitting around in a circle on the floor, singing and playing, recording with open mikes. That was the last time I remember Brian really being totally involved in something that was really worth doing". HeartbreakingIt also has that 'wider'? more 'voluminous'* kind of sound - a wider, more all-inclusive aura audial? as was discussed there as re island music, that era etc. - my words aren't working but it's a great song.

Brian Jones, the band’s original leader and founder, had, over the course of the recording of the previous two albums, become increasingly detached from the group. Though present in the studio, he was frequently too intoxicated to contribute meaningfully, and after a motorcycle accident in May 1969, missed several recording sessions whilst recovering. Always a talented multi-instrumentalist, Jones had previously contributed extensively on guitar, forming an integral part of the dual-guitar sound that was central to the band's chemistry. He was fired from the band during the recording of Let It Bleed, having performed on only two tracks: playing autoharp on "You Got the Silver", and percussion on "Midnight Rambler".But, RJ! I continued looking...never satisfied. From "The Rolling Stones' Legendary Work in 10 Songs." [Link]
By 1968 he [Brian Jones] was in the throes of drug addiction and was barely contributing to The Stones at all. Perhaps his last major contribution was the mournful slide guitar of ‘No Expectations’, which unwittingly personified his state: fragile, soulful, and wearied. Jones’ mark on The Rolling Stones is forever etched into history, but often the legend can take hold over the work. ‘No Expectations’ shows a proper musician who was still able to create something meaningful and beautiful....fragile, soulful, and wearied.
Those 2 don't even smoke. You light your own 1st, then hand your lighter over.No. It's the truth.
Everything is a lie. Everything.
Comment: Quite the own goal for the medical establishment! In the meantime, perhaps all these new smokers will benefit from some clarity of mind to see though all the BS.
