Great Blog site! I am a devotee of sci-fi, B-movies, foreign films, 50-60-70′s TV shows; current TV loves include “Breaking Bad.”
Will definitely keep tuning in. Thank you all for your expertise.

You forgot to mention Mick’s funny turn in ABC’s short-lived sitcom, Knights of Prosperity. Mick wasn’t on each episode, but it was a very funny show about a group of misfits who decide that the way to be happy is to get rich, and to get rich, they’ll rob Mick Jagger’s NYC apartment. Mick is shown on a “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” type tv show, that main character, played by Donal Logue, happens to watch, which causes him to hatch the kooky plan. Mick is hilarious as he gives a tour of his exotic apartment. I wish ABC hadn’t cancelled this show, it was very witty and well done, imho. Not as much a fan of the Stones as my husband is; like the Beatles better.

The made-for-TV concert film “Rock and Roll Circus” has a great scene where Jagger interviews John Lennon, who he call Winston Legthigh. Very Rutles like.

As for the Beatles vs. the Stones: I have not been exposed to that much of the latters music, but when I have been exposed, I have almost invariably come to the conclusion that one-or-the-other cover version was better than the original. With the Beatles (with whom I am much better acquainted), it has been the other way around.

Old Mick was much more than a rockstar I guess. Taking things from all directions removing them from everywhere. Mick.

Performance (1970) If someone asked me the proverbial question: "The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?" I'd pledge my allegiance to the bad boys of rock 'n' roll in an instant.

I met Donald Cammell once, as he was handling the press screenings for his marvelous 1986 thriller “White of the Eye.” Quite a nice man in person, quite a brilliant and troubled one elsewise.
