MICK TAYLOR and MICK JAGGER performing at Hyde Park, July 5, 1969

“We were talkin’ about the Hyde Park concert the day before he died. He died on the Wednesday, I was talkin’ to him on the Monday. I’d already met Mick Taylor—the week before—and Brian said, ‘Have you met him?’ I said, ‘Yeah.’ He said, ‘What’s he like?’ I said, ‘Oh, I don’t think I like him.’ He said, ‘Oh, you will,’ and he was ever so nice about it. He said, ‘I think I’ll come to the Hyde Park concert on Saturday, what do you think people would think about that, if I came?’ I said, ‘It would be a great idea, for you to go along and wish Mick Taylor luck.’”
