As was the guy from Taj Mahal. Although I agree that it was played to a track but vocals live, Toni Iommi was holding a slide... remember he was in Jethro Tull for a short period
I thought so too...but I think he was mimicking playing slide. I certainly didn't see it. But I didn't watch uber closely.
I respectively disagree. Although the Beatles could have easily played Yer Blues and they would have been the knock out- the Who ruled the rock 'n roll circus in my opinion.
I agree. The Who were outstanding at that show. I didn't even know about them there till recently.
could this kind of brand be in there as well? Did sonor always have those mis matched lugs?http://cgi.ebay.com/1960s-Vintage-Tromsa-Snare-Drum-from-West-Germany_W0QQitemZ330361981456QQcmdZViewItemQQptZVintgae_Drums_Percussion?hash=item4ceb1bca10&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
Thats a possibility as well, although I have not heard of that brand before. Its not very common in the states thats for sure!

I believe the Who, the Dirty Mac (clapton, lennon, mitchell, etc), and the Stones were the only ones who played live and not to a track (miming). The Who blew everyone away, even the Stones, thats why the Stones shelved it for so long. Point of interest here, the Stones did a couple of songs on the Circus that they hadn't released on record yet......anyone car to name them? (I know which ones, I'm just checking if anyone else does :D )

Unfortunately the internet and google takes the fun out of this...but I will try to keep it old school and not research but go off of recollection.
I KNOW they played Jumping Jack Flash as Brian Jones--my true great hero in music (I still only play a 1961 green Gretsch Anniversary guitar live) --looked about ready to die. Sympathy for the Devil as well.

I think that was why it took so long for that to be released, The Stones were ****ed because The Who upstaged them.

Close....one out of two....sympathy for the devil was one.......care to try again on the other?
sympathy was performed...
Mitch Mitchell was playing Charlie Watts kit that day for that session.....
Mitch played Premier for much of his career with Jimi... but I believe he switched to Gretsch around 1969 or so. He's playing a black double bass Gretsch kit in the 1970 Isle of Wight video, and I think (though I'm not certain) he played a Gretsch kit at Woodstock. Anyone remember?

he also played on Luddy kits too it looks like he had a set of black panthers in this 69 concert [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2TSpusRV-8[/ame] you can see in the footage they have that flat finish just like panthers did.
