Popular Post rooster59 Posted September 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 12, 2020 The Rolling Stones become first band to top UK album charts over six different decades FILE PHOTO: Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones performs between band members Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood during their No Filter U.S. Tour at Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, California, U.S., August 22, 2019. REUTERS/Mario Anzuoni/File Photo LONDON (Reuters) - Veteran rockers The Rolling Stones topped the British album charts once again on Friday, creating history by becoming the first band to score a number one album across six different decades, the Official Charts Company said. The band, who first began performing in 1962, went straight to the top spot with a remastered version of their "Goats Head Soup" album, which was originally released in 1973 when it also reached number one. The Stones, who still regularly tour despite their members such as singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards being well into their seventies, have now scored 13 UK chart-topping albums, the same number as Elvis Presley and Robbie Williams. Only The Beatles have managed more with 15, the Official Charts Company said.

stouricks Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 (edited) What has the current age of Mick & Keith got to do with an album they recorded in 1973? And what about Charlie, almost 80! Edited September 12, 2020 by stouricks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Emdog Posted September 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2020 Good for them. Not what they used to be, but who among us is? Saw them back in 66 ($4.50 ticket, 3rd row center, they got $17,000 for the concert) and consider Aftermath period their best. Plenty of good stuff after that, but what the hey. Keith is smart and a hoot.... Mick is....well, Mick is Mick. I do recall story (maybe just a story) that Clapton told Ron Wood "I could have been the replacement player" & Ron replied "Yeah, but you'd then have to live with them...." 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes if i remember correctly that was before he sacked his song writer (an Irishman i think) for having the nerve to ask would Robbie include his name on the albums since he had written all Robbies hits, needless to say after the sacking Robbie had no more hits, Bigheaded bartsard! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that Robbie and his co song writer, Guy Chambers parted ways because Chambers wanted to work with other artists and Robbie dissolved their writing partnership because he wanted Guy to exclusively write songs with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abba was without doubt the greatest and most popular pop group ever. The spice girls were a manufactured group that sang junk ( IMO ) songs and became nothing when they sacked their manager. However, they did make Viva Forever, so that's a tiny plus for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the groupies kept him going. Be hard to give up all that free sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
