Greetings my Brotha Jamel, Would love to talk. L.A. home grown Brotha Alejandro here. Always diggin' your show. I've been in the music industry for over 30 years and have worked with some of these bands that you've heard for the first time. Thanks for the good feelings, thanks for being real. Peace, Love and good music. Brotha Alejandro ✌😎🎼 alexvargas.tfs@gmail.com alexvargas.mantis@gmail.com
This is what guitarist Mick Taylor said about the recording of the song: The jam at the end just happened by accident; that was never planned. Towards the end of the song I just felt like carrying on playing. Everybody was putting their instruments down, but the tape was still rolling and it sounded good, so everybody quickly picked up their instruments again and carried on playing. It just happened, and it was a one-take thing. A lot of people seem to really like that part. (Wikipedia).
That's what he said years after, but if you listen it was Keith's riff that set the whole thing in motion. Perhaps parts were added later, but it doesn't sound at all like a completely spontaneous jam.
@@ptownscribe1254It was probably a spontaneous jam to begin with, but sure, they subsequently layered on plenty of overdubs that built on what was originally laid down as a one off.
@@klb3293 Sway is a great tune,but,that whole album is bangin. but STILL have Exile as their overall peak. beggars banquet and let it bleed aint bad either!
If you haven't seen it; here's a link to what is the best version of "Tumbling Dice" I've ever heard. By one of the best voices and gorgeous women th-cam.com/video/Ee_JltI6rHg/w-d-xo.html
It's one thing to call yourselves the Greatest Rock in Roll Band in the world, it is a whole different thing to live up to that. The STONES certainly do. I have seen them seven times and after each show, I said this was the best I ever saw. They just kept raising the bar.
My favorite Stones song!! From Keith's crunchy opening riff to the extended solo of Bobby Keys on sax and Mick Taylor on guitar down to Billy Preston on the organ. Great choice Jamel!!👍🏻✌🏼💯
Not sure if Keith played the intro, since apparently he had almost nothing to do with this song (obviously overdubbed harmony vocals though). Taylor was perfectly capable of doing a Keef impersonation. But it is in Keith's style for sure.
@@ThePmfan yea I have the Deluxe reissue and there's a demo of this live in the studio. The riff is Keef from the beginning. As is the transition riff into the sax solo. Sway on the other hand sounds like Keith but it's Jagger
The saxophonist, the late Bobby Keys, was born on the same day as Keith Richards, an ocean apart. RIP Texan. He also played sax for Lynyrd Skynyrd, Harry Nilsson, Delaney & Bonnie and Friends, George Harrison, John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Joe Cocker... I bet him and Clarence Clemons are belting out great solos in one hell of a heavenly band.
Bobby was from Slaton Texas, a little just down the road from my little town Lubbock. So the music folks around here boast Bobby Keys and Buddy Holly, who was a huge musical influence for Keith. Bobby’s story is amazing, one of the greatest saxophone players. What a cool track
@@monkface A great live video to see Bobby playing live with the Stones is Sweet Virginia, think it was recorded in Fort Worth on the Exile on Main Street tour
Without Keith riffs this song does not even exist and Taylor never even gets to do his solo. I love Taylor with the stones but enough of already! Keith's riffs are what makes these stones songs so memorable!
I have one with a working zipper :D It has slight rip at the bottom of the zipper because high school me wanted to see what was inside and pulled it too far open LOL. (it's just a pair of briefs inside nothing graphic)
Can't go wrong with the Stones Jamel. I highly recommend "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and "Midnight Rambler". Thanks for brightening everybody's day!
That Killer Opening Riff is the Genius of KEITH RICHARDS a MASTER of Most of the Stones Driving Riffs! And a Shout Out to Bobby Keys RIP on the Brilliant Sax Work! ...Newk from Kentucky
"MONKEY MAN" "Tumbling Dice" "Angie" "As Tears Go By" "Bitch" "Ruby Tuesday" "Wild Horses" "You Can't Always Get What You Want" "Time Is On My Side" "Mother's Little Helper" I can't remember all the Stones songs you've done.
Hey brotha! You've got to check out the album "Exile on Main Street". "Tumbling Dice", "Sweet Virginia" and "Rocks Off" would be choice cuts but that whole album is amazing. Peace and love ~!
“Wild Horses”, “Angie “, “You Gotta Move” “Tumbling Dice” ,”Emotional Rescue” all great songs from what I call the Stones third act. Following the English Invasion and Blues periods.
Time Waits for No One --- one of the best Stones jams featuring atypical Stones players, Mick Taylor on slide, Nicky Hopkins on piano, Ray Cooper on percussion. Probably their most underrated song of all time.
The sax was played by Bobby Keys one of the best sax players in rock music. He was not a member of the stones . he played sessions with many of the greats
Yeah, he got around for sure. He was called the 6th Stone however and was usually on tour with them. He and Keith even had the same birthday, even the same year. A good Texan from Slaton, just outside of Lubbock.
@@myoman1977 A couple years ago. His autobiography is a great read. “Every nights a Saturday night, and every mornings a Sunday” or something like that.
Man, you nailed the analysis! Legendary jam off one of the classic Stones albums from the Mick Taylor years--with a fine improvised solo from the man himself. Terrific work from the whole band in fact, with a signature Keith Richards riff to kick it off, and then the weaving polyrhythms of Richards, Watts and Wyman to carry it along. Great contributions as well from honorary Stones Bobby Keys (wailing away on tenor) and the great Billy Preston (filling out the groove on organ).
Jamel, here is one more band that you haven't reviewed yet, and they definitely deserve it. The Chambers Brothers "Time has come Today" Huge hit back in 1967, and was even more huge with the guys stuck over in 'nam at the time, and is considered one of the landmark songs of the psychedelic era.
....GREAT choice...I’ve been ‘seconding’ various people’s suggestion of that tasty cut for some months now...hopefully J will get to it sooner than later...:)!
This is one of my favorite bands, and most of their songs never die. You can play this tune over and over, and you will always find it pleasing to listen to it. Mick Taylor's guitar solo (on the left channel) represents how good of a guitar player he is, and the Saxo solo, thank you, Bobby Keys, you were great. The Rolling Stones is one of those bands that had it together from the beginning till now.
Jamel a year and a half ago: "I have no idea what this is or what I'm listening to" Jamel in Oct 2020: "Yes, this has quite the Santana sound, does it not?"
Would love to hear “Wild Horses” by The Rolling Stones next. It was one of my late sisters favorite songs by them and she requested it be played at her funeral, a request we honored. Every time I hear it, I feel as if she’s “visiting me” and “checking in”. Thanks 💜
Seeing "Casino" and "Blow" brought me to this song. I heard those riffs, and I'm like, "Which one is this!?" Because I already loved the Rolling Stones. That whole instrumental coda after the main part of the song ends was basically just the guys jamming out, improvising.
I love that you review stones songs. They are literally my favorite band and I love like about 200 of their songs. This song specifically is one of my favorites and its actually been my ring tone for like 7 years Haha. Keep it up with the great work and songs I would recommend by then are the following: If you really want to be my friend, sister morphine, out of tears, already over me, no expectations, memory motel. There are so many more but I'll stop there lol
Thank you resurrecting songs from my youth ❤ I remember songs like this playing on the radio everyday. Didn't appreciate them like I do now. Again, thanks!!!
To add to my last comment!! They had a few long tunes!! One of my Favorite that goes back to the mid to late 60s called "GOIN' HOME " Definitely worth checking out!! Midnight Ramber another!! Thanks Again for Bringing back The Good Stuff!!
This whole album is beautiful, one of their best. Mandatory listening. I can't say enough good things about this record, "Sticky Fingers", a classic rock masterpiece.
I was fortunate enough to meet Mick Taylor in a bar in Minneapolis several years ago. He was playing with a band and the place was packed. During a break he walked up to my brother and me and just started talking to us. He is such a humble and nice person. His talent on guitar is enormous and he elevated the Strolling Bones to more than just garage band level. They were never able to achieve that incredible sound since he left in 1974.
The "garage-band level" Stones managed not only to have a long string of hits in a wide variety of styles (hard to imagine a garage band coming up with Lady Jane, Ruby Tuesday, Sitting on a Fence, etc., etc.) but create Beggar's Banquet and Let It Bleed (Taylor plays a minor role in two songs), including Sympathy for the Devil, Street Fighting Man, Gimme Shelter, You Can't Always Get What You Want, with no help from Mick Taylor. The idea that a 20-year-old lead guitarist somehow saved a band that was wrapping up a decade of triumphs is nonsense.
Helluva groove indeed. I am so happy to see you enjoying the STONES. I mean, they will never be equaled. One of the best times in your life was when you had tickets to see the Stones no matter WHERE you were sitting it was a party. Nonstop funky groove.
Y'all hit on one of my all time favs, My Brother. This is one of the best rhythm riffs ever recorded. Someone once said that great rhythm guitar is lead guitar by another name. This is a prime example of this. Gotta love the groove.
“Wild Horses” from the same album is another incredible song from The Rolling Stones. This was before Ron Woods joined the band (who was playing guitar previously in Faces with Rod Stewart)
My favorite Stones song and one epic jam session. I'm not surprised at the jazz influence in that session. Charlie Watts, their drummer, is one helluva jazz aficionado. It's his first love.
Mick Taylor,so underrated and invaluable to the Stones sound in the early 70's. Check out these bangers (they have so many),Starfucker,and in recent years,Doom and Gloom.
I had no idea for years when I was a kid that this was the Stones. This has got to be one of my most favorite Stones tunes. Another one from this era that's my jam is "It's Only Rock 'n' Roll (But I Like It)".
I’ve heard this song 🎧 a thousand times, but hv never considered the individual instruments 🎹 until you pointed out the organ! Thkq for this video and your entire catalog they’re grrrrrrr-eat! 🐯
Huge Stone's fan. This has always been my favorite song by them. Where I live (southern Germany) there is a radio station that, for years, has only played 5 Rolling Stones tunes. They play them often to this day. 'Angie', 'Brown Sugar', 'Beast of Burden', 'Waiting on a Friend', and strangely, 'Sweet Lady Jane'.
The Stones were at their best when they augmented the core band with elite outside talent. Gimme Shelter with Merrie Clayton and this one, with the all-too-brief addition of the only true lead guitarist the band ever had, Mick Taylor, and the late, great Bobby Keyes on tenor sax.
Wow, guess all that lead guitar and solos on Time is On My Side, Little Red Rooster, It's All Over Now, The Last Time, Sympathy for the Devil, Gimme Shelter, Monkey Man, Honky Tonk Women, Bitch, Wild Horses, Happy, Beast of Burden, Shattered, Start Me Up, She Was Hot, Undercover of the Night, etc., etc., etc. was played by a ghost!
Need to check out “Dirty Mac” cover of “Yer Blues” John Lennon: lead vocals/ rhythm guitar Kieth Richards: bass Eric Clapton: lead guitar Mitch Mitchell: drums Nuff said...
Hearing this for over 40 years. Never gets old. I like when it's used in movies. Blow and Casino are the first to come to mind. Just a small section of the song but well done. Best wishes from Marietta Georgia.
R.I.P. to Bobby Keys. He was kind of the "Forest Gump" of R&R. He was a session guy in the early 60's, was on the Maddogs and Englishmen tour with Joe Cocker and Leon Russell and was the sax guy for the stones for over a decade.

Mick Taylor on lead, my absolute favorite era of the Stones.
Definitely
Mick Taylor was great.
Obvio
Saw Taylor solo twice in the 80's. This song was always the encore. Great blues guitarist is he.
Yeah, he was the Stones' virtuoso guitarist
I've heard it a thousand times and it never gets old
right on!
🎤🎸🥁🎶🔥🧨💣💥
It's got that bad ass feel.
Yes! Old Stones music really holds up. Lot of their songs still used in movie, TV.
My all-time favorite Stones song - and "Sticky Fingers" is my all-time favorite Stones album
Ditto. Same for me too.
My favorite Stones tune, by a mile.
Mick Taylor era FTW!!! 👍
I second that!
My favorite album too
The guitar intro is killer, give me goosebumps

Love the song, hate the end
My Favorite Stone's track! Really amazing!
A moment never to be repeated.
YEAH!
I second "Moonlight Mile" and also recommend "Tumbling Dice".
Sway best song on Album!!!
Both excellent song!
@@klb3293 Sway is a great tune,but,that whole album is bangin.
but STILL have Exile as their overall peak.
beggars banquet and let it bleed aint bad either!

Perhaps the most memorable sax solo ever. Thank you Bobby Keys. May he rest in peace.
Yes Indeed 🎶🎷
Bobby at his BEST
you seem to be forgetting a certain individual by the name of Coltrane...
The last instrumental part of this song is phenomenal!
WORD!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Mick Taylor rinsing
I heard it was recorded accidentally, it wasn't intended to be part of the song...
yes they kept the tape rolling to capture one of the greatest jams ever recorded.
During an era when the electric guitar was king, there was some crazy good sax work going on in there.
It's one thing to call yourselves the Greatest Rock in Roll Band in the world, it is a whole different thing to live up to that. The STONES certainly do. I have seen them seven times and after each show, I said this was the best I ever saw. They just kept raising the bar.
My favorite Stones song!! From Keith's crunchy opening riff to the extended solo of Bobby Keys on sax and Mick Taylor on guitar down to Billy Preston on the organ. Great choice Jamel!!👍🏻✌🏼💯
Really? I guess I am at the other side of the spectrum. I love Emotional Rescue, for all the DRMA baby!
Not sure if Keith played the intro, since apparently he had almost nothing to do with this song (obviously overdubbed harmony vocals though). Taylor was perfectly capable of doing a Keef impersonation. But it is in Keith's style for sure.
@@ThePmfan Keith does play the intro in open G. Mick kicks in on the opening lyrics with standard tuning.
I never knew that was Billy Preston on organ! He was amazing.
@@ThePmfan yea I have the Deluxe reissue and there's a demo of this live in the studio. The riff is Keef from the beginning. As is the transition riff into the sax solo. Sway on the other hand sounds like Keith but it's Jagger
the incredible thing is that every single instrument on the whole last part of the song with Mick Taylor’s solo is completely improvised
The saxophonist, the late Bobby Keys, was born on the same day as Keith Richards, an ocean apart. RIP Texan. He also played sax for Lynyrd Skynyrd, Harry Nilsson, Delaney & Bonnie and Friends, George Harrison, John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Joe Cocker...

@@monkface Thanks for the tip! I just added it to my watchlist.
@@monkface A great live video to see Bobby playing live with the Stones is Sweet Virginia, think it was recorded in Fort Worth on the Exile on Main Street tour
The intro riff on this song is just amazing. This song has so much swagger and swing to it. And that tone Keith is pulling is perfection.
has to be the best opening riffs ever
Billy Preston on organ.😊
Mick Taylor on lead guitar ballsy Les Paul has blown Keith Richards off the stage. Get real!
@@arothko8939Who cares as this is about Mick Taylor on guitar. WTF!
Without Keith riffs this song does not even exist and Taylor never even gets to do his solo. I love Taylor with the stones but enough of already! Keith's riffs are what makes these stones songs so memorable!
The zipper is functional on the original album covers. Caused a lot of broken records during shipping.
Yeah. Mine remained intact thankfully!
I still have my copy.
Just saw this!!!! It was functional😊🤣😂
I have one with a working zipper :D It has slight rip at the bottom of the zipper because high school me wanted to see what was inside and pulled it too far open LOL. (it's just a pair of briefs inside nothing graphic)
And underneath that zipper album cover is a picture of some tidy -whities on a torso covering that “man meat!”
When I watch dude digging the songs of my youth for the first time, I get chills all over again. Awesome, Jamel.
Can't go wrong with the Stones Jamel. I highly recommend "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and "Midnight Rambler". Thanks for brightening everybody's day!
I keep asking for midnight rambler love to see him react to that, live version though
@@barbarapavia5170 Agree live is way better. Marquee Club 1971
Definitely "You Can't Always Get What You Want" extended version. An absolute classic that gets overshadowed by "Sympathy for the Devil."
@@colinvandenberg3446 Totally agree.

WTF!
This and monkey man are two of my favorite Rolling Stones songs
I can't imagine anyone else singing Monkey Man, it's pretty much WHO MICK JAGGER IS (or was at least)
Me too
Yep!!!! Mine too
Same here
Monkey man. One of my favorites also...oh and the entire Exile on main Street album.
Time waits for no one amazing lyrics and amazing song. Keep up the great reactions
You want to hear Steve Winwood and Traffic on "Low Spark of High Heel Boys" if you like this vibe. It cooks slower, but just as smoky.
Please do Jamel
Sauce for days and days.
Love this song!!! Low spark of high heel boys!!!
...’cooks slower’....PERRRRRFECT description...props to you...:)!!
Yes!!!
"MONKEY MAN"
"Tumbling Dice"
"Angie"
"As Tears Go By"
"Bitch"
"Ruby Tuesday"
"Wild Horses"
"You Can't Always Get What You Want"
"Time Is On My Side"
"Mother's Little Helper"
I can't remember all the Stones songs you've done.
Not Fade Away
Mona
It's All Over Now
You Can't Catch Me
"Under My Thumb"
"Emotional Rescue"
"Lady Jane"
love this song. The stank on this riff at the beginning part tide could not wash out whoooo!
IT’S SO DAMN DIRTAY!!!!!!
The crunchy guitar tone man. Love it
One of my favorite Rolling Stones tunes. Simply a masterpiece.
I highly recommend "Moonlight Mile" and "Sister Morphine". Love your positive vibes, Jamel!
Moonlight Mile... still remember the first time I heard this one. By far one of my favorites.
Sister Morphine doesn't get enough reactions! One of my favorites from the Stones.
Moonlight Mile is epic...Essential listening !
Moonlight Mile was what made me fall in love with the Stones.
Seconded! Moonlight Mile and Sister Morphine are incredible -- definitely the two most haunting tracks on Sticky Fingers.
Gimme Shelter. Merry Clayton's guest vocals are amazing on that one.
He did that one already
as a Beatles fan I also love the Stones ! the whole album is a banger, lots of hits, cheers to you all "Jogi" from Germany
I have a feeling, when you start digging into the Rolling Stones you'll fall in love. They're 100% blues based, grimmy rock n roll 😤😤😤
Hey brotha! You've got to check out the album "Exile on Main Street". "Tumbling Dice", "Sweet Virginia" and "Rocks Off" would be choice cuts but that whole album is amazing. Peace and love ~!
EXILE ON MAIN STREET is the shit, y'all!
Monkey Man has similar nasty riffs. One of my favorite Stones songs.
You forgot Jivin' Sister Fanny
Also All down the Line, Shine a Light and Stop Breaking Down.
Ventilator Blues off that album is awesome!
Those rolling stones are cool cats amazing sound rock,jazz,blues together.
The 2nd half instrumental part was just an impromptu jam as the song was ending. It was so good they decided to keep it in.
Leaving it out would of been a HUGE mistake.
@@VinylCollektor23 would HAVE been!
@@alexcampbell8135 Don't care. Just enjoy the music grammar Nazi.
@@VinylCollektor23 No need to put the word grammar in your reply big boy.

Oh yes... "Can't You Hear me Knocking".... ! With Mick Taylor ! ;-)
And the saxophone. Sweet.
I’m loving you’ve got the wardrobe now to match most anything! 🙌😄
🤪
“Wild Horses”, “Angie “, “You Gotta Move”
“Tumbling Dice” ,”Emotional Rescue” all great songs from what I call the Stones third act. Following the English Invasion and Blues periods.
Time Waits for No One --- one of the best Stones jams featuring atypical Stones players, Mick Taylor on slide, Nicky Hopkins on piano, Ray Cooper on percussion. Probably their most underrated song of all time.
Jamel, this song it's not human. It comes from a different planet!
This is the perfect song.
mick taylor is why!!
I was so excited for you to hear this song! yay! Take care Jamel.
Oooooooooo!!!!! My FAVORITE Rolling Stones Song of ALL TIME!!!! Yes, yes, YES!!!!!
I recommend Dead Flowers.
Magnificent & Powerful. This is why they're the Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World.
Give Monkey Man and Fool to Cry a listen.
The Black and Blue album is one of my favs!!!!
Monkey Man is a VERY close 2nd behind this for my favorite Stones song😎

This IS the best Rolling Stones song....sort of an Allman Brothers Stormy Monday...2 of the greatest songs in rock history.
The sax was played by Bobby Keys one of the best sax players in rock music. He was not a member of the stones . he played sessions with many of the greats
Yeah, he got around for sure. He was called the 6th Stone however and was usually on tour with them. He and Keith even had the same birthday, even the same year. A good Texan from Slaton, just outside of Lubbock.
I think he just passed away didnt he?
@@myoman1977 A couple years ago. His autobiography is a great read. “Every nights a Saturday night, and every mornings a Sunday” or something like that.
Keith wrote a very touching eulogy after Bobby passed.
@@jccook5353 they were very close . Bobby got fired from working with The Stones but Keith got Jagger to take him. Back for the Steel Wheels tour

And it rocks hard & fast!
My recommendation, too
Man you put a smile on this old mans face. Your reaction when first hearing these great songs is the same as mine. Thank you.

There may be no better song for "more cowbell"!!
TIME HAS COME TODAY. Seminal 60s song. MUST PLAY! TIME!
Jamel, we know you. You will be shaking your finger at us for requesting this one. Cow bell nirvana.
Absolutely! He must do the long album version though.
This is one of my favorite bands, and most of their songs never die. You can play this tune over and over, and you will always find it pleasing to listen to it.

Impressed you caught the Santana vibe; Mick Taylor said his guitar solo was based on his impressions of "Abraxas".
That was a great version of the Stones because Taylor was a great lead guitarist.
Thank you Jamel. Been waiting for this one. Knew you would love it. Always look forward to see what you got up your sleeve my friend. ✌️
Jamel a year and a half ago: "I have no idea what this is or what I'm listening to"
Jamel in Oct 2020: "Yes, this has quite the Santana sound, does it not?"
😆👍🤜🤛👏Refined palate.
This dude has become a musicologist lol. i still like to see what he says about some of my favorite songs though
Love the shirt and the reactions to the greatest band of all time.
Bobby Keys on sax, from the 1970's until he passed in the 2010s. Never a member of the Rolling Stones but a real part of their sound for 40 years!
My mom got me into the Stones when I was a kid she's 75 thanks momma
This is the best tune by these guys Musically. Richards is the Master of the Open G tuning.
The second half of this song was a substantial hit on R&B stations around the country.
Would love to hear “Wild Horses” by The Rolling Stones next. It was one of my late sisters favorite songs by them and she requested it be played at her funeral, a request we honored. Every time I hear it, I feel as if she’s “visiting me” and “checking in”. Thanks 💜
So much layered texture in these early Seventies rockers.
“Let It Bleed”
Charlie Watts is an amazing drummer
At 72 I've heard it all, this is the greatest rock song on the greatest rock album of ALL TIME......
sirius xm classic vinyl did a poll top 50 lp's of 50 years this came in second next to zep 4 i think it was more like a tie for #1

One of the best live cuts is “Midnight Rambler” on Get Your YaYa’s Out. Stones have always been in a class by themselves.
Thank you resurrecting songs from my youth ❤ I remember songs like this playing on the radio everyday. Didn't appreciate them like I do now. Again, thanks!!!
Grown men vocals. Howl at the moon. Swamp rock guitars. It don't get no better.

The "garage-band level" Stones managed not only to have a long string of hits in a wide variety of styles (hard to imagine a garage band coming up with Lady Jane, Ruby Tuesday, Sitting on a Fence, etc., etc.) but create Beggar's Banquet and Let It Bleed (Taylor plays a minor role in two songs), including Sympathy for the Devil, Street Fighting Man, Gimme Shelter, You Can't Always Get What You Want, with no help from Mick Taylor. The idea that a 20-year-old lead guitarist somehow saved a band that was wrapping up a decade of triumphs is nonsense.
Rolling Stones "Wild Horses"
Helluva groove indeed. I am so happy to see you enjoying the STONES. I mean, they will never be equaled. One of the best times in your life was when you had tickets to see the Stones no matter WHERE you were sitting it was a party. Nonstop funky groove.
every time i hear this song, i think of the movie Blow....and cocaine....this was the intro music for the film.
Y'all hit on one of my all time favs, My Brother. This is one of the best rhythm riffs ever recorded. Someone once said that great rhythm guitar is lead guitar by another name. This is a prime example of this. Gotta love the groove.
“Wild Horses” from the same album is another incredible song from The Rolling Stones. This was before Ron Woods joined the band (who was playing guitar previously in Faces with Rod Stewart)
My favorite Stones song and one epic jam session. I'm not surprised at the jazz influence in that session. Charlie Watts, their drummer, is one helluva jazz aficionado. It's his first love.
Mick Taylor,so underrated and invaluable to the Stones sound in the early 70's.
Check out these bangers (they have so many),Starfucker,and in recent years,Doom and Gloom.
Heck yaaassss....bout time good Sir....some greezy funky rock...been hoping you came to this one when I saw your other Stones reactions....
Holy crap...that opening riff.
Open G tuning.
I had no idea for years when I was a kid that this was the Stones. This has got to be one of my most favorite Stones tunes. Another one from this era that's my jam is "It's Only Rock 'n' Roll (But I Like It)".
Charlie Watts drivin' that train!
One of my favorites, the CD is in the stack right here, another in the car.
Charlie Watts: a jazz drummer who sat in with the Stones to pay the bills. I'm sure there are worse gigs.
This is one of the great rock songs of all times. love your reaction , a good groove.
Go into any dive bar with a pool table in America and play this song. Ask for it to be played loud. People will buy you drinks.
I’ve heard this song 🎧 a thousand times, but hv never considered the individual instruments 🎹 until you pointed out the organ! Thkq for this video and your entire catalog they’re grrrrrrr-eat! 🐯
Thats what I'm talking bout. I have the album with zipper. Every song is badass
Your reaction reading at 11:25 just cracked me up! 😂 That face was priceless....😅 freaking hilarious..i hear you bro..👍
Please do ( doo, doo, doo ,doo heartbreaker) the lyrics are as relevant today as the day it was written. ☮️
Or he could try something that is more relevant than when written... Frank Zappa / I Am the Slime
My favorite Stones toon! I love the main riff and the free jam at the end!
RIP Charlie. This, kiddos, is how y'groove!
Huge Stone's fan. This has always been my favorite song by them. Where I live (southern Germany) there is a radio station that, for years, has only played 5 Rolling Stones tunes. They play them often to this day. 'Angie', 'Brown Sugar', 'Beast of Burden', 'Waiting on a Friend', and strangely, 'Sweet Lady Jane'.
The Stones were at their best when they augmented the core band with elite outside talent. Gimme Shelter with Merrie Clayton and this one, with the all-too-brief addition of the only true lead guitarist the band ever had, Mick Taylor, and the late, great Bobby Keyes on tenor sax.
Wow, guess all that lead guitar and solos on Time is On My Side, Little Red Rooster, It's All Over Now, The Last Time, Sympathy for the Devil, Gimme Shelter, Monkey Man, Honky Tonk Women, Bitch, Wild Horses, Happy, Beast of Burden, Shattered, Start Me Up, She Was Hot, Undercover of the Night, etc., etc., etc. was played by a ghost!
THANK YOU!!
Cannot leave the Stones off of the list of rockers!!! They have rocked us out for a long time!!!!😎
Need to check out “Dirty Mac” cover of “Yer Blues”
John Lennon: lead vocals/ rhythm guitar
Kieth Richards: bass
Eric Clapton: lead guitar
Mitch Mitchell: drums
Nuff said...
John & Mick yakking before the song is priceless
Good stuff.
Yoko gets in a large black sack at the beginning of the song and it was her greatest performance.
Love Dirty Mac Yer Blues
Best line up ever.
Hearing this for over 40 years. Never gets old. I like when it's used in movies. Blow and Casino are the first to come to mind. Just a small section of the song but well done. Best wishes from Marietta Georgia.
R.I.P. to Bobby Keys. He was kind of the "Forest Gump" of R&R. He was a session guy in the early 60's, was on the Maddogs and Englishmen tour with Joe Cocker and Leon Russell and was the sax guy for the stones for over a decade.
My favorite stones song and album! Great job again
