Walton Ford @ Magasin Taschen, Paris, 23 Avril 2023

WALTON FORD dessinateur naturaliste est en dédicace au magasin Taschen de la Rue de Buci ce dimanche.

Dédicace bien sympathique avec un Walton Ford avenant, prenant  le temps de dessiner un animal sur chaque livre et de discuter avec les gens

On lui a posé quelques questions sur les Stones:
-C'est Jagger qui a aperçu le dessin d'un gorille dans un de ses livres et qui en voulait un pour la pochette.

-le dessin original devait être sans la langue des Stones mais Jagger voulait qu'elle apparaisse.
-Il aurait préféré que le disque s'appelle simplement MCMLXII - MMXII comme on peut le voir sur certaines sérigraphies vendues. C'était le disque du 50e anniversaire (1962-2012) mais le groupe a préféré un autre nom ( "GRRR") dont les lettres de la pochette ont été réalisées par un autre artiste.
-La peinture originale est toujours en possession de Walton et est de grande taille ( dans les 2 m sur 3), il nous même montré une photo pendant la réalisation de la peinture sur son téléphone.

WALTON FORD nous propose une exposition de ses oeuvres à la Galerie Max Hetzler 46 & 57, rue du Temple, 75004 jusqu'au 03 Juin 2023

The Rolling Stones' "One more Shot" Live from rehearsals and other stuff

 The rehearsals are over in France the band is on its way to NYC for some press duties, we have the post-Rolling Stones depression blues and ROCKERPARIS wants to keep the party going.

So here it is THE FIRST LIVE VERSION OF "One More Shot" recorded on Oct 11

The song has been released officially for a few days now, the band has left France so we don't think it should be a problem releasing this LIVE version ,I know the sound is crap but I think this song sounds much better LIVE that on the studio version

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR KIND WORDS ( Thanks Shidoobee)

We've done a pretty good job

We posted ALL the setlists of songs that the band rehearsed from Oct 11 till Nov 09.

We were the first one to share with you the recordings from the studio:

1) First live version of "I wanna be your man" since 1964 or 1965 (according to specialists)

2) the first ever LIVE version of "Doom & Gloom" (here below)

To keep up with the good work

This is also the first time that they are rehearsing "Satisfaction"

UPDATED Oct 16 with CORRECTED SETLISTS:

The Rolling Stones have a new Best Of... "GRRR!" out soon with a couple of new tracks recorded in Paris at the end of August.
As the band is getting ready to play a couple of shows at the O2 Arena in London at the end of November and a couple more in NYC at the beginning of December and maybe some more...

We left Paris for the country side for a couple of days to (try to) listen to the rehearsals, nice bet as we heard many songs from their back catalogue and a couple of new ones including "Doom & Gloom" (here on audio) and "One more shot", which was a world exclusive for us, as the song has never been heard anywhere yet.
Rehearsals started at the beginning of the month and will end in a couple of weeks.

-Here's a list of songs that were rehearsed on Oct 11 (not in order & corrected):

Miss you, It's only Rock'n roll, Tumbling dice, You got me rocking, Let it bleed, Sitting on the dock of the bay, respectable, far away eyes, Doom & gloom,One more shot,  paint it Black, I wanna be your man, Not fade away, Brown sugar, If you can't rock me, some girls

-Songs rehearsed on Oct 12 (in order):  CORRECTED on OCT15

Bitch, All down the line, rocks off,Dead flowers, Last time, Honky Tonk women, Going to a gogo, Ladyjane, Down & Gloom, One more shot, shine  a light, can't always get..., happy.Before they make me run, sympathy for the devil

To answer all questions: YES we do have recorded "One more shot", don't know if we'll post this one as we don't want to be in trouble with the Stones or people working with them... maybe later but the song sounds a bit like "doom" , less rock more groovy with a better chorus. It would have been my choice for the first single instead of "Doom"
We may post "I wanna be your man" as we love The Beatles over here.
