Keith's guitar on CYHMK is probably my favorite moment in the Rolling Stones entire catalogue, and over 300 bootlegs. My parents must hate that first 2mins 42 secs more than any other space of time because I would play it on guitar over and over again. It's my ringtone, my alarm clock, my justification for the Rolling Stones being the greatest band ever.
To each their own in terms of what music grabs them, but for me, as a young child and many years after, it was the riffs & rhythms of the Stones. I’m fairly old now, but perhaps a couple times a year I’ll quite unexpectedly catch the opening riff of one of Keith’s intros and it will still hit me hard
One of the best videos to capture the essence of Richards, the Stones, and his unique contribution. Keith put the riff in motif. I have a guitar-playing friend, a lead guitarist, that thinks Keith is overrated. He and I have argued about this for years. I make the points that this video makes. I think I will send it to him, maybe he will listen, read the comments, and find mine.
Thank you and glad you like it! It sounds like you've been defending Keith Richards for a while now! He’s all about vibe and feel rather than flashy technique, and that’s what makes his riffs so memorable. Keith’s ability to create iconic, simple grooves is what gives the Rolling Stones their signature sound. It’s not always about technical skill, it’s about how the music moves you, and Keith nails that every time. Sending this video might help your friend see that side of things. Maybe it'll finally get through to him! Keep It Rolling!
Keith Richards' best is the rhythm/lead at the beginning of "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" and infinitely more interesting than Mick Taylor's contribution to the tune. And Mick Taylor is one of the best blues rocker of that era.
With all due & deserved respect for the great Mick Taylor holding up the second half of "Can't You Hear Me Knocking", giving it almost a pedestal of its own apart from that one incredible Keith riff, it is worth noting that 5 years earlier a very young Larry Coryell put down a solo on Chico Hamilton's "For Mod's Only" that clearly is the foundation of Mick's solo. Mick took it further, yes, but Larry's must be some of the inspiration. First 2 minutes: th-cam.com/video/hE9stY9X_Ns/w-d-xo.html (Chico Hamilton, ''For Mods Only'' --- 1966)
just like with the beatles and john lennon rock n roll was their cuppa. george harrison n mick taylor were into melody. thats how they clashed but were able to make hits aplenty. it dont come easy and you know it dont.
Listening to Jim Dickinson talk for two hours about that time the stones came to muscle shoals is so awesome. Outside of Mick they might be the least precious major band ever assembled. They did not give a damn about whether their instruments were even in tune.
Correct, the solo, was impromtu, and it has a Santana feel, Charlie was hitting the cymbal thinking the song was nearing an end...but MT did his thing. The others pick up their instruments and came back to close it out. Fantastic song and open rich sound! @@jonjrgensen2390

Keith’s guitar is the heart & soul of the Rolling Stones sound! ❤
50 years on and the opening riff on knocking is still playing in my head. The zipper on my record is broken. The digital recordings just dont cut it.
Not a big Stones fan, but there's no denying this riff or any number he has blessed us with
Love it! Keith and Mick Taylor jamming together is pure rock 'n' roll poetry. Question: Why no credit given to Bobby Keyes on sax?
Charlie was always exactly in the pocket. Great, great player. Had great touch for what was needed on each track.
Guitar was originally a rhythm instrument and Keith carried that forward from Celtic, country and blues. Brilliantly.
......nice. Thank You.
Thank you too! Glad you love it!

Keit's Gitarrenspiel ist Magie...
besser kann ich es nicht ausdrücken...🎸🎶🎼🎵👌👏🔝💯....
100%! As a 30yr recording engineer and GTR player, IMHO CYHMK is the pinnacle of dual gtr work from the Stones!
Congratulations, very good. João Batista/Porto Alegre/Brasil.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
I love that song. Turn the volume up to 11 and go for it.The riff is so dirty and so rock n roll.Then Taylors piece at the end is outstanding.
Great video. Well done.
Thank you,,,Glad you enjoyed it! Keep on rolling!
KEITH❤🎸🎸
IMO the addition of Ron Wood into the Stones was a stroke of genius
Arguably the greatest Rock riff since Johnny B Goode

Effina. Get a light weight, resonant Tele. Lose the 6th string. Then tune the rest to open G. Stand back and listen to the magic happen. Thanks Keef.
to get that blistering tone what you're hearing is the sound of two 50's tweed Fender amps at full volume
Charlie and Bobby Keys came in and killed it on that track.

Mount Rushmore riff. 🎸
The prototype rock star.
Gritty and Loose is an appropriate description.
great riff my fav , i play it in sandard tuning and it dont sound right but I cant do the M Taylor solos when we play it
just like with the beatles and john lennon rock n roll was their cuppa. george harrison n mick taylor were into melody. thats how they clashed but were able to make hits aplenty. it dont come easy and you know it dont.
100% Mick Taylor on the opening solo...
Nothing against Keith but it is what it is
What are you talking about? That’s 100% Keith Richards. That’s his DNA all over that riff. Where do you get your facts from?
Taylor lor is on the other channel, playing clean chords and later he plays the solo
it was Mother Maybell Carter that Keith got his inspiration from
Listening to Jim Dickinson talk for two hours about that time the stones came to muscle shoals is so awesome. Outside of Mick they might be the least precious major band ever assembled. They did not give a damn about whether their instruments were even in tune.
I thought mic Taylor came up with that riff
It’s open g, classic Keith Richards. The solo is MT.
Correct, the solo, was impromtu, and it has a Santana feel, Charlie was hitting the cymbal thinking the song was nearing an end...but MT did his thing. The others pick up their instruments and came back to close it out. Fantastic song and open rich sound! @@jonjrgensen2390
Isn't that opening riff actually Mick Taylor?
No
@@KenH-oo8zn fair enough.Wasn't sure.There are plenty of of dirty sounding fills you think are Richards that are in fact Taylor✌️
He didn't deserve to outlive Edward Van Halen regardless.
Keith is for Trump 2024
Been a Stones fan 50 years but I can't listen to Mick anymore.
It ain’t the notes, it’s the space between the notes.
MICK TAYLOR IS WAY BETTER
@@jaytouvelle2359 Keith’s legacy far surpasses that of MT. However, that was not the subject of the video and it’s not a competition anyway.
How dare you put a Donald Trump ad with this video.
Oh no how awful.
Lol...It's TH-cam system puts the ads! Thanks for watching!
BS
Bat Sh!t crazy guitar riff? No doubt.
