Good reaction to a great song by the Stones. I have to remind myself that Brad and Lex are relatively new to this music compared to some of us who have heard this all our lives. They do a great job with honest opinions. They have grown on me .
I Love the Stones!...1965....This reminds me of when I was a little girl and My Grandma died and My Uncle came to live with us because he was only 16 and still in High School...his Favorite group was the Stones so he played them all the time!...Being an only child He was More like a big brother to me than an uncle!...Such wonderful memories!!
Another great dance song from my youth! Lol, as a 14 year old we never analyzed the lyrics just moved and danced to the rhythm of the beat. After the Beatles started the invasion the Stones and Dave Clark Five were vying for number 1 in '64 among the invaders. I really do enjoy you two as you time warp back to some great music via youtube.
I know what you mean about analyzing lyrics. I didn’t really do that either. Besides you could only find out once you bought the album and the lyrics were in the liner.
The EARLY Stones with Brian Jones were simply the best. That guitar riff that Brian Jones came up with is just DRIVEN right down your throat. Also, good vocals. Very bluesy. Love it.
The Andrew Oldham Orchestra dropped an instrumental cover of "The Last Time" in 1965 that was nicked by The Verve for "Bitter Sweet Symphony" in 1997. The Stones themselves were cool with it, but the record company sued The Verve for copyright and won.
This became my favorite Stones song when it came out! Actually it was on the album where we listened before being played on the radio, as Satisfaction was the album hit at the time (if I remember right). It was mid sixties and I was around 10, but had two older sisters who were on top of everything.
This is early '64-'65 Stones while the year old British Invasion was still in full swing. By this song, they were established as the biggest group except for the Beatles and had that "bad boys" image that they cultivated for years. Their next single was "Satisfaction", probably the most memorable song of a year that had so many.
I really love the guitars on this track. Brian Jones holding down the riff to the point where it becomes hypnotic, Keith's understated lead break which is almost country sounding. This is like a gospel song, only about an impending breakup from the sound of it.
Probably the song more than any other that transports me back to my early teenage years. I would sing this to the top of my voice in my bedroom over and over - such a brilliant snippet of British pop music scene of that time. Still love hearing it and when we have parties at home, the volume goes up on this one.
The microphone preamplifiers they used and the tape they recorded onto back then would over saturate when driven hard, resulting in fuzzed out distortion
Wow you guys, Brad with his comment on compression near the end and Lex noticing the limits of that recording technology. I really love that you guys are getting really good at recognizing stuff about this older music. It's really impressive.
This song always reminds me of Roger Miller's 'I've Been A Long Time Leaving, But I'll Be A Long Time Gone'. Another great song that'll never win a poll but is worth your time checking out offline.
@@thomassamburgh5904 thanks. they need to make playlists for bands they've reacted to over 9 times. And don't call me Shirley 🤣 removed. (hope you get the reference)
This was inspired by a 1955 gospel song called "This May Be The Last Time" by The Staple Singers. The Stones changed the meaning of the song, making it into a stern message to a girl. The Staples version had a more uplifting message and was much more spiritual. Many gospel fans felt The Stones ripped it off, since The Staple Singers never got any royalties from it. Since it is a traditional song (meaning no one owns the rights to it), many artists have recorded it, but The Stones were a very high-profile band that had success reworking songs by black artists into hits. Many people believe The Stones should have compensated The Staple Singers because it was based on their version of the song. In the 2003 book According to the Rolling Stones, Keith Richards wrote: "We didn't find it difficult to write pop songs, but it was VERY difficult - and I think Mick will agree - to write one for the Stones. It seemed to us it took months and months and in the end we came up with The Last Time, which was basically re-adapting a traditional gospel song that had been sung by the Staple Singers, but luckily the song itself goes back into the mists of time. I think I was trying to learn it on the guitar just to get the chords, sitting there playing along with the record, no gigs, nothing else to do. At least we put our own stamp on it, as the Staple Singers had done, and as many other people have before and since: they're still singing it in churches today. It gave us something to build on to create the first song that we felt we could decently present to the band to play... The Last Time was kind of a bridge into thinking about writing for the Stones. It gave us a level of confidence; a pathway of how to do it. And once we had done that we were in the game. There was no mercy, because then we had to come up with the next one. We had entered a race without even knowing it." >> This song did have some clear antecedents in black American music, in particular the 1964 James Brown single "Maybe the Last Time," which was itself based on ideas found in a traditional gospel song that had been recorded, but not written, by the Staple Singers. Some have accused the Stones of literally stealing from their black heroes, but "The Last Time" is clearly different from and more rock-oriented than the tracks recorded by James Brown and the Staple Singers, although there are some similarities in approach and the use of the title lyric. (Songfacts.com)
Even if The Staple Singers had written and recorded the song it's very unlikely they could have prevailed in a copyright suit. The only similarity is the refrain, and only in the words of the refrain. The song's are not at all the same in whole and wouldn't meet the legal requirement of being substantially the same. The melody is totally different throughout the whole song, including the refrain, the verses are totally different and the chord patterns and musical composition are also completely different. It's nothing like the travesty when The Animals were given a copyright for the traditional "House of the Rising Sun" even after copying the unique chord progression arrangement created by Dave Van Ronk and used by Dylan. Hilton Valentine, their guitarist, even said that all he did was take Dylan's chords and play them in arpeggios.
I am a life long Stones fan love all of their stages but this early stuff from '64 on is some of my very favorite probably cause I was just 13. ❤️❤️❤️😎✌️🎶👍
This song is loosely based on a song from the Staple Singers but very different melody & tempo. They also did a cover of an early Bobby Womack song "It's All Over Now", Don Covay "Mercy, Mercy", Allen Toussiant "Fortune Teller", Irma Thomas, "Time Is On My Side", Hank Williams "You Win Again" & more. The Stones dug into US R&B & Country & sold it back to us as "the Brittish Invasion."
History records this as the first Jagger-Richards composition, the Stones only did covers before. But decades later, when compiling his History of the Blues, ex-Stones bass guitarist Bill Wyman found an old shellac 78 r.p.m. called "This is The Last Time". Though the tempo and phrasing was different, it was clearly the same song. So old, there was no writer's credit on the label, out of copyright if it ever had one. Wyman commented "No idea where that pair found a copy".
Keith wrote in his excellent autobiography that Hoagy Carmichael praised his songwriting and he was vert happy. The band was not born fully formed (like the early Beatles records)Jimi but like with any good craftsman, they kept honing their craft.
ok so my read on Brad is that he is like Samuel L Jackson in Pulp Fiction... seriously cool and always on point. Lex i would liken to Sandra Bullock in Speed... funny, quirky and one of the nicest people you're ever likely to meet!
One of their early hits - Spring 1965, a month or two before their mega-hit Satisfaction. The Stones were know for anti-love songs in that era - Heart of Stone, The Last Time, Satisfaction, Get Off My Cloud (all 1965) plus others like Time Is On My Side, It's All Over Now, Tell Me, and a bit later - Paint It Black.
Back in September of 1991 I got to see three Grateful Dead shows at good ol' Madison Square Garden in New York City, and at two of the shows 9/9 and 9/17, they covered "The Last Time" by The Rolling Stones. And that's the song I was running over in my mind as I drove back home, not any of The Dead's songs. Fortunately, it wasn't the last time I saw The Dead, that was in 1995, like everyone else.
What would be fun would be to react the song "It's all Over Now", first the original version by the Valentinos and then the Rolling Stones version. The song was written by Bobby Womack (later a big soul & disco music star in the 1970s and 1980s) and his sister in law Shirley Womack.
this was the first song actually written by Mick and Keith and presented to the band to record. Mick has stated that they were really hesitant to present songs to the rest of the band to record. Until this one. and obviously they hit the nail on the head
About 1964-65 They were coming in on the heels and wave of the Beatles...without the Beatle s break though many band may not have become known at all in the USA...we'll never know. The Beatles were the first to wear what was considered outrageous long hair and all the bands followed their lead as well..
Take the time to listen to the inspiration for this Stones track. Pop Staples and the Staples Singers, “The Last Time”. You will be rewarded by what you hear.
Although "The Last Time" is credited to Jagger/Richards, the song's refrain is similar to "This May Be the Last Time", a traditional gospel song recorded in 1954 by the Staple Singers. In 2003, Richards acknowledged this, saying, "We came up with 'The Last Time', which was basically re-adapting a traditional gospel song that had been sung by the Staple Singers, but luckily the song itself goes back into the mists of time." The Rolling Stones' song has a main melody and a hook (a distinctive guitar riff played by Brian Jones) that were both absent in the Staple Singers' version. Phil Spector, whose "Wall of Sound" approach can be heard on the recording, assisted with the production.
I always associate this track w another of theirs from the same early era: " It's All Over Now". If you should decide to watch/listen to it sometime, regardless whether you react to it, or not, use the live version to see them in their very early days; very amusing, especially the shots from behind the group, looking out into the audience of teenyboppers jumping out of their seats. ( The audio is actually the studio version.)
Lex nails a critical element of rock: overmodulation. That distorted mic - here Mick does his Van Morrison preach to get it .. Little Richard started it, John Lennon perfected it. One of those excitement triggers that modern production loses out on.
The sound Lex is hearing, is called “breakup” or “breaking up. It happens when the volume signal going into a tube amp gets overdriven, causing the sound to ‘breakup’, which causes distortion. It’s basically the tubes getting overloaded, which causes the distortion you hear from a guitar being played through a tube amp.
They did a lot of covers and stole a lot of rhythms in the beginning (and sometimes until this day..lol) as this song was but they still had their distinctive sound early on.. This was early.. when they finally got their song writing in gear mid 60s and beyond they were fire.. Fine reaction..
Stones and Zep were the bad boys...oh and Eric Burden and the Animals...look, I was born in 1955, US Air Force brat. I went thru 1st thru 3rd grade in a DOD school in England...I was in England when the Beatles were in America! LOL Truth IS stranger than fiction...truth don't care, it just Is. God Bless and keep you both...or should I say all of ya'll
I saw "The Stones" in Pittsburgh on their 2nd American tour. They weren't even the top band on the tour. The top band was Herman's Hermits. The tour included The Animals. It was quite a good show. I can say the Mick Jagger was prime playing with the crowd when he shut off the microphone and threw it down claiming he got shocked from it. (If he had really been shocked he would have just dropped the microphone and it would have made quite a thud.) Then, other members of the band came around him and "talked him into continuing the show." That got applause from the audience. 😉
Cool song, but a cover. The Stones dropped a bunch of great covers over the years. "Harlem Shuffle" was first recorded by Bob & Earl in 1963. The horn flourish from the original was sampled in "Jump Around" by House of Pain in 1992.
if you listen to this 60s and 70s music on a good stereo system you will hear a lot of the things you don't pick up on computer before it gets compressed to make the file a smaller size. . . a lot of instruments and other sounds disappear when they compress these songs
Yep that was another good one from the "World's greatest rock and roll band" but you still haven't played their 1st American hit from the End Sullivan Show, Let's Spend The Night Together. Ed made them sing Let's Spend Some Time Together, and they did. They might have been rebellious but they weren't stupid.
Great reaction. This might be my favorite Stones song, until I hear another one played. Stones came long before Led Zeppelin. Not comparing, just placing in historical order.
I've also wondered if old school music used special equipment to achieve that harsh vocal sound. But the more I find out about it, the more I come to the conclusion that they really could sing like that and that modern "clean" music production just tries to avoid this sound, which I think is a shame.
I love the early Rolling Stones music catalogue from 1963 to about 1967. Some of their best music.
Including some righteous blues classic covers.
Yes ... Brian Jones was a huge part of that
absolutely,brother.I have a double CD called Rolled Gold. Cocers 1960s/70s.
Their best music was 1968 to 1972… Started with Beggars Banquet through Let It Bleed, Exile On Main Street and Sticky Fingers..
@@vrvaughn There is no good music or bad music, only music you like or don't.
Good reaction to a great song by the Stones. I have to remind myself that Brad and Lex are relatively new to this music compared to some of us who have heard this all our lives. They do a great job with honest opinions. They have grown on me .
Except when Brad goes, "What's this about? I don't get it" -- which is 99% of the time. Thank God for Lex.

One of The Stones' finest, and a riff for the ages. This song captures the spirit of London in the mid-to-late 1960s beautifully.
Totally agree. This is my favorite Stones song.

The technical term for that sound is "clipping" and you're right, Lex, it does happen when equipment exceeds its capabilities.
He just keep going back to her...fun reaction
This song is creeping up on 60 years old. Yikes, I remember it’s release like yesterday.
this is a great damn stones song
I recognize some of those London Venues where they made their name.
In The UK in the Mid-1960s they were second in popularity only to The Beatles.:)
this one of my fav tunes when I was a kid...that guitar line kills me
Stray Cat Blues is another great song by the Stones. Short and sweet!
This song always reminds me of Roger Miller's 'I've Been A Long Time Leaving, But I'll Be A Long Time Gone'. Another great song that'll never win a poll but is worth your time checking out offline.

Taking full credit as song writers, is in fact stealing. I do agree though that this is one of, if not the best, of their early work.

Alan,if I remember correctly It's All Over Now was the Stones really big hit,and yes the Valentino's did it first
Yea, " It's All Over Now " by the Stones is the bomb, you'll love it.. Try " Down Home Girl " as well, the lyrics are killer..

You are in front of the first legendary rock song, you don't know what this song did for us kids of the 60's, game changer.
The Beatles and Rolling Stones were in direct competition at this tome😅
You have ALMOST scratched the surface of the Stones catalogue. Keep going only about 450 songs in their library
It’s called inter modular distortion when the sound overloads the preamps causing a faint buzz of distortion.
You can Pick from dozens of their songs and always come up a winner. Try Monkey Man, another awesome tune from one of the best, Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎶
FOOL TO CRY, JUMPIN JACK FLASH, DEAD FLOWERS, SISTER MORPHINE, ANGIE, HEARTBREAKER, LOVE IS STRONG, JUST MY IMAGINATION, SLAVE, HEAVEN.
Under my thumb 👍 is another great one ,along with 500 other stones songs 😁

Stones rule.
That's two good songs you've picked today The other was The Wind Cries Mary.
When the audio equipment is unable to handle the input volume, it's called saturation. It can happen in just some frequency ranges.
Compression is the term, Brad is correct. There is a ceiling to how loud a recording can get. A bad example is the Stooges song "Search and Destroy".
Brian Jones Stones my fave

The Stones were best in their very early years (like this one) .
I saw "The Stones" in Pittsburgh on their 2nd American tour. They weren't even the top band on the tour. The top band was Herman's Hermits. The tour included The Animals. It was quite a good show. I can say the Mick Jagger was prime playing with the crowd when he shut off the microphone and threw it down claiming he got shocked from it. (If he had really been shocked he would have just dropped the microphone and it would have made quite a thud.) Then, other members of the band came around him and "talked him into continuing the show." That got applause from the audience. 😉
This album when released was in mono, not stereo.
Brian Jones's ostinato is still brilliant. And nobody plays it quite right.
This song was played at the funeral of one of my best friends. He always wanted it.
That's Brian Jones playing that riff over & over.

"Harlem Shuffle" by the Rolling Stones is a classic 80s song.

love the stones but try- The Kings - This Beat Goes On/Switchin' to Glide a great one hit wonder
Have you guy's listened to Start Me Up by the Stones yet?
As good as a song gets
this was before the Led Zep explosion
Some songs from this era were a bit sexist but musically terrific. Listen to "Under My Thumb" also by the Rolling Stones.
Great reaction. This might be my favorite Stones song, until I hear another one played. Stones came long before Led Zeppelin. Not comparing, just placing in historical order.
First 😅
Now react to Vodoo lounge to experience much older band rocking
I've also wondered if old school music used special equipment to achieve that harsh vocal sound. But the more I find out about it, the more I come to the conclusion that they really could sing like that and that modern "clean" music production just tries to avoid this sound, which I think is a shame.
Hey y'all, please do... The Rolling Stones - Stupid Girl..
