: He still wasted his talent by wasting his life. I really wonder what Exile On Main St. would have turned into with a relatively coherent Brian. Or to have gone through the 70's. We are lucky to have what we do, but it's a real shame Brian didn't last longer.
With a good karioke player, you can adjust the sound just to hear
Brian and Charlie. But the drums are prominent either way.
Those 5 guys were perfect together.
With the last sentance an understatement, I can't add much more.
Tonight is not a drinking night.
I have focused on his playing and when you get the
chance to single it out w/ a karioke player you cry.
It's just blows my mind to think of him playing on
Exile or on the No Security Tour.
Imagine. Imagine him on Start Me Up, side 2 of
Tattoo You or Anybody Dueshed My Baby.
We were not left with much from the guy.
It would be very interesting to see what his playing
style would be like today.
Don't know if he would focus more on Country or Blues.
There will NEVER be an alternative.
