“Just
like the real thing” enthused rock star photographer
Gered Mankowitz at his private view. Indeed Keith
Richards' own mother, Doris, was kind enough to describe
them as “outstanding” and fit to “stand in for the
Stones” which is about as good an endorsement as any
could wish.
A
typical two hour show includes not only all the classic
crowd pleasing hits, but is spiced with enough eclectic
selections from the deeper recesses of Stones Album
archives to satisfy the most demanding of “Buffs”, all
performed with the same vibrantly authentic attack and
raw energy that characterised the original Stones shows
in their prime. What clearly comes across to audiences
seeing the band at work is the passion they all have for
the music of what is, cliché or not, "The Greatest
Rock'n'Roll Band" the world has seen.
