Two friends of mine from Glasgow were in a London pub drinking and they were having an argument is that Bill Wyman having a drink? Eventually they went over to ask him if he was and as they approached Bill said okay you can have an autograph. We don’t want an autograph they replied we just wanted to settle an argument. They all laughed and ended up spending the night with Bill drinking.
Yes, but it has to be said that Mick Jagger would have had (prefered) his friend Dick taylor (of the pretty Things, who remembers them?) on Bass if it wasn't for the fact that Bill had a great amp...
@@jameswitham2141 Dick Taylor was the first bass player of the Rolling Stones for a short time but he prefer to be a guitarist so he left the Stones and created Pretty Things and never regretted it, he stayed friend with Jagger.
Not a Stones fan so did not know that Billy could even sing. Enjoyed this tune though....Ol' Albert Lee in the background supplying some tasty guitar fills.
Bill played with the Stones from their inception, he also composed the opening riff for Jumping Jack Flash on a piano, which Keith immediately jumped on. He invented the fretless bass, by removing the frets so that he could the sound he wanted on King Bee & others.
Piccadilly Circus meets Vaudeville! Sorry, but these Brits seem to have forgotten what rock and roll was about. Listen to the original by Chuck Berry, and judge for yerself!
Woman Should’ve been doing more songs with the Rolling Stones; I know what it’s like to be a bass player; for one thing it’s hard to sing and play bass at the same time; guitar players are a dime a dozen; bass player worth a quarter apiece
I saw an interview with Mick Jagger, he was asked about Bill Wyman leaving the Rolling Stones and he basically said it was no big deal, he shrugged it off and said anybody could play bass for the Stones. Kind of a weird and disrespectful answer.
Compare his vocals to Keith Richards. It’s like comparing a songbird to a blender grinding up nails. That’s taking into consideration that Bill isn’t that good of a singer.😂
@@JeffaHensley I agree. I think everyone is misunderstanding my post. I’m saying Keith is not a great vocalist. Bill can song lead vocals better than Keith. Not much better but better. Keith’s vocals have suffered mightily over the years.

I’ve watched these guys live, many times. Pure talent all the way.
Bill is king!
Saw the group at Norwich. Was a fantastic night.
I saw them in Tunbridge Wells at the very first gig Andy Fairweather Lowe Albert Lee. Gary Booker and others it was friggin awesome
Albert Lee on guitar wow!!
Wyman is a greate rock´n´roller
Yes, but it has to be said that Mick Jagger would have had (prefered) his friend Dick taylor (of the pretty Things, who remembers them?) on Bass if it wasn't for the fact that Bill had a great amp...
And a very average Pub singer!! 😄😂

Great Bill
One of Tarantino's favourites as well.
Why has Bill Wyman not featured on the BBC ,2 TV show on the stones. It's unforgivable.
I agree
... Jagger got the huff with him !
@@davidmclachlan6592 That sounds all too likely, from what you read!
@@robinwilson1433 Bill has been written out of the rolling stones history. Mick Jagger should be ashamed of himself
We love Mick and Keith, but don't you think they can be a little petty?
Love the Music ♥️🎸♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟
As much as he's a great bass player watching Bill on the stage is as exciting as watching grass grow.
Like watching Roy Orbison, who used to come on stage, stand there and sing, then walk off. They could’ve used a cardboard cut out with more animation.
@@doncullen9419 Except that the cardboard cutout doesn't have a voice.
Ha ha, wonderful comment...:-)
he is the typical working class english man, like watts. same dry humour. but trust me, i live in london, they are quite funny people.
@@reresimone4300 good comment Rere . The saxophone players are so groovy why should Bill have to move ? He's grooved for 60 years
Bill is Cool!
😎🔥

Fabuloso!!!!!!!!!!
Bill Wyman rules! His precise, on-the-money bass playing puts all the other bass players to shame!
you must be joking !!
he is great, you're right about that, and that's no joke
"All other bass players" ?? 😄😂
Bill's main strength is dependability !!
Albert Lee!
That's who I thought it was. Nice.
The great Albert Lee. Always in the background- never up front giving it large and showing off. Saw him last Monday; terrific.
Bill is brimming with energy
NOT!!🤣
considering he's 86, he's doing alright
love this tune ,used to have the willie and the poor boys album on casette but it got away .the only other version i'll play is done by john prine
I love the Willy and the Poor Boys Album.
Me 2 ...never could find the album r cassette again
John Prine was a class act, may he RIP... Dear Abby, Dear Abby ! !
Albert Lee.
Remember this song in a movie can’t think of it😫
Pulp fictiom
Yes, good job 👏
The dance off
Is that Geraint Watkins on the keyboard?
yes
Paul McCartney and Wings, Bill Wyman’s Rhythm Kings and Mick Jagger and The Tongues…..Next…… 👍👍👍
Cool bass Bill's playing,is it an Ampeg?

Ole Grøndahl Hansen Why on earth did you "NOT" mention "Albert Lee"????
Did he plays bass in Satisfaction - Stones?

This Performance is about as FLAT as the State of Nebreska..
About the same amount o corn too
@@asacarrick1440 Shove a cob up your cob up your corn hole Assa.
Chas and Dave live on ….
Bill should have sung on some rolling stones songs. Cool!😎
he did sing on In Another Land
Doubtful m n k would of let him ..lucky for the 1 we know he actually wrote who knows what others
Is that Albert Lee?
Sure is
What's the purpose of the dame
Bill looks like he ain't even playing true pro😎✌️
He aint
@@asacarrick1440 just checking out the chick's 💀😎
@@veronicamurray5417 And he could probably have any of them after the show.
Why would Bill leave the Stones to be in another band?
Because they're shit.....now
He didn't like flying all over the world, apparently.
That's what this video is about: czcams.com/video/SZlF3xT8crw/video.html
Why didn't the Stones have him on vocals?
A class above
He sang too well.
He sings better than Keith Richards.

That’s why Bill was never allowed to sing lead.
I didn't he is a thumbet!
Piccadilly Circus meets Vaudeville! Sorry, but these Brits seem to have forgotten what rock and roll was about. Listen to the original by Chuck Berry, and judge for yerself!
I think if this lot sparked up in a place I was drinking I'd go elsewhere
Good riddance.
They wouldn't miss you nor would the barkeep me thinks.

@@eightinches6094 jagger thinks he,s the stones No Jones no Stones.
@@eightinches6094 No, Mick said that you can't avoid someone who wants to leave.
Sounds more like Chas & Dave than Rock'n'Roll 😐
0 out of 10 for enthusiasm, Bill.
Hava tequila
We just need Mick 2 jump on 2 da stage!
Prefer Status Quo's version!
Have a listen to the version by ‘Daddy Cool’.
Compare his vocals to Keith Richards. It’s like comparing a songbird to a blender grinding up nails. That’s taking into consideration that Bill isn’t that good of a singer.😂
Kieth Richards is the coolest.
True he never thought if himself as a good singer. Never mattered though, he's a legendary bassist.
Yeah, well, Keith Richards is hardly a top flight vocalist, and he’d be the first person to admit so.
@@JeffaHensley I agree. I think everyone is misunderstanding my post. I’m saying Keith is not a great vocalist. Bill can song lead vocals better than Keith. Not much better but better. Keith’s vocals have suffered mightily over the years.
He should have stayed with the Stones. He's nothing alone.
sounds like he is singing in a local pub, loads of feeling (not). The worst version i have heard
A good bass player, a vocalist not. Sorry Bill.
Boring. Love Bill tho.
Why bother. Go fishing instead.
Creepy bloke.
Really boring and amateurish. Not even remotely interesting. He lucked out being in The Stones.
Love the Music ♥️🎸♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟
Albert Lee!
