Mick Taylor is a British guitarist who first gained fame for playing with John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers. In 1969, Brian Jones was kicked out of the Rolling Stones (he died not long after that). In need of a replacement, Mick Taylor was added to the band.
Taylor was an excellent, but very underrated guitarist. He's definitely as good as Keith Richards, but perhaps even better than that. Despite his skill, he wasn't a very prominent or popular member of the band, often considered the "forgotten" member of the band. In 1974, Mick Taylor left the band. He played with Bob Dylan in the 80s but was otherwise not a very prolific artist since the Stones.

Mick Taylor is an awesome yet underrated guitarist. It's a shame that his excellent playing is so overlooked.

Get the Mick Taylor mug.The span of historical time during which an organization enjoys the best personnel lineup it will ever have. The phrase derives from the name of the virtuoso lead guitarist of the Rolling Stones, 1969 to 1975.
The Micktaylor period of the Democratic Party ended in 1968, when the Kennedys and their organization permanently lost national power.
