: : Would you like it if your boss suddenly took credit for a project you did thinking you would get credit/respect/appreciation for it?
: Happens every day chick. Life ain't fair.
@@@ Do 2 wrongs make a right??
: How do you think Keith would feel if Woody wiped out and overdubbed some of his parts to make a song sound better?
: AHHHHHHhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Yeah, like that would ever happen! Woooo, that's a good one.
@@@ It was a hypothetical question & I think you know damn well the answer.
: You assume the reason Keith overdubbed Brian's parts is because they were not up to par. You could be completely wrong.
: I probably am. Keno's version is definately more acurate. My point is that you don't know, I don't know, no one knows, except for those involved. For you to second guess Keith or Mick is silly. It's the same as me second guessing what club Tiger Woods should use on a downwind par 3. Tiger knows what club to hit better than I would. Same with Stones tunes. Mick & Keith know better than you what goes into (or gets left off) of a Stones tune.
@@@ The fact is Keith erased Brian's contribution; Brian is the one who came up with the riff. The Stones don't always do things like that objectively and in the sole interest of the music. A PERFECT EXAMPLE IS WHEN THEY DECIDED NOT TO INCLUDE JEFF BECK'S BITS ON "BLACK & BLUE" JUST BECAUSE HE INSULTED YOUR GOD KEITH!!!
Since Brian came up with the riff it is quite likely it may have been just as good.
