for The Rolling Stones in 1972 (at The Pit, in Albuquerque). He was out promoting his "Superstition" album. Martha Reeves and the Vandella's were billed as singing back-up, but something happened and they were unable to make it. The ladies who did the job were more than competent. Stevie sang and took a turn playing every instrument on stage. A remarkable performance
Oh, yeah....the Stones were OK, too!....:~)
btw....tix were $6.25 ea.

When I was up there the day before my 21st. He was/is my moms fav, so I was a fan by default....I was trying out a keyboard when he sat down at the one next to me and started playing. We had a little impromptu jam session until his entourage caught up and kinda surrounded him. I went up and said hey & thanks when I saw the opportunity. He was pretty cool....I used a friends cell phone (I didn't have one) to call my mom and brag. She wasn't cool
