Black Cat BONE featuring Mick Taylor - Taylormade 1995


Black Cat BONE featuring Mick Taylor - Taylormade 1995

Blues

As far as I know, Mick did this record in early December 1995 with german band Black Cat Bone. Their lead guitarist Hans-Joerg Mueller only wanted to do another record if Mick was playing with him. So Mick was contacted and said yes. And it was a very good thing for us Stones fans that he did say yes, because he did a lot of very fine playing on a couple of tracks. Most outstanding of course is his singing and soloing on Blind Willie McTell, a track written and recorded by Bob Dylan for his "Infidels" record, but never released officially with Mick Taylor. If you know the outtakes of that track that are in circulation, you will know what I mean. When the solo Mick is playing for Bob is really taking off, the track is faded out. Here you get the full treat of 10.14 minutes of Mick Taylor singing and letting his guitar bleed. GREAT! Another fine instrumental song is "Mick's Song", where he can really show off, what he still is able to do to a guitar. Mick also wrote a track for the record, called "Slow Blues", which it is, so the CD is a real must for any Mick Taylor fan.
