- The Rolling Stones:
In this video, we're rolling back the years to 1971 with 'Can't You Hear Me Knocking' by The Rolling Stones.
"Can't You Hear Me Knocking" is one of The Rolling Stones' iconic tracks, hailing from their 1971 album, "Sticky Fingers." The song is recognized for its legendary riff and extended jam, which takes up more than half of the track's seven-minute runtime.
'Can't You Hear Me Knocking,' a legendary track created in a moment of unplanned musical brilliance. It's a testament to The Rolling Stones' unique and improvisational approach to music

Worlds greatest rock and roll band……period.
Love them so much........💞
@@mariellademargheriti6249 me too. Fantastic album. Saw them about 5years ago… Fantastic!!
no question
Wow, do you really really think so? That is so important to know. I think you must be a very smart person. You could save the world with such knowledge!
The first time I saw them live on the Steel Wheels Tour, I said the same thing about three songs into the first set. Rolling Stones, Guns N’ Roses and Living Color. I think I paid around 45 bucks for a ticket
"Sticky Fingers", my favorite Rolling Stones' record. And "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" is probably my favorite track on it, although any of the songs on that album could be the best. AMAZING MASTERPIECE.
I say the same thing about the album and the song. If I had to pick one....
Fingerprint file ....
Sister morphine is also another track that is a masterpiece!
I still get a thrilk
I'm 67 and live in a college town. When my well seasoned buddies and I head into town to shoot pool and play for beers with the kids I always put $10-20 in the 'juke box' to play some great classic rock. The extended version of this song is always top of the list. The kids love the classic rock we play. Stones, Zep, Who, Boz Scaggs, Allman Bros, Tedeschi Trucks, etc etc etc. Good times for old guys.
1971. Best year in rock. Sticky Fingers best record. Done.
Yeah can you imagine having a whole year like 71 nowadays? Who's Next, Zeppelin 4 AND Sticky Fingers!!!
Great album! But I'll go with Who's Next!!
@@kevinstimelsky673for me personally it goes
1. Led Zeppelin iv
2. Sticky fingers
3. Who’s next
4. Masters of reality
5. Humble pie rocking at the Fillmore
Best rolling stone's song thumbs up
Second best. Gimme Shelter is still my fave of all time
All hail Mick Taylor.
This left out so much I'm really surprised.... what about the Sax solo by Bobby Keys? The connector riff after the first section that leads into the jam? My band plays this iconic song and we do it justice... every nuance... every double stop and fill. This song is a journey into the center of the Rolling Stones loose groove that has a feel of going off the rails but never does. THAT is the magic.
Favorite album
Ja, in dieser Zeit entstand eine Weiterentwicklung der Rolling Stones..langsam verstehe ich es....Danke für die interessante Erklärung....good Night ...🎶🎼🎵🔝💯
At the end, Ronnie is looking at MT as if to say, " God, I wish I could play like that!"
Yep
Very true@@thomasreaves302
We all not gonna talk about the sax player, Bobby Keys?? That dude made the song what it is!
Absolutely, Bobby Keys is as important to the track as Mick Taylor.
We are in Awe of THE man
Miss you
KEITH IS ROCK N' ROLL. THAT'S IT, NO MORE TO SAY.
you means Mickvtaylor
Keith is the riff meister.
This is Fantastic! Things I didn’t know about my 💯 absolute favorite song
✨❤✨❤✨
The greatest rock and roll band.seen they live and they were amazing.
proper music.. a spontaneous jam unplanned....superb
The Mick Taylor era was when they made the best music
MT left when the stones went “ glam” after the exile on Main Street album ( which many considered a flop )….it was not his style of music.
Best song ever!
The best song by the Rolling Stones, it encompass everything good about them at their prime...
"Can't you hear me" is one of my all time Stones favourites.
I thought this was going to be Richards telling the actual facts.
Keith asleep most of the album, that riff like his Lennon moment on later Beatles albums, his saving grace. Taylor guesting on the fiftieth anniversary tour showed how he cooked with them live.

I'm from Detroit (blow the reveille)!
The songwriting dynamic wasn't really much different than before.
Keef used to come up with a riff & a 'tag-line'. Sometimes he would have a complete verse or chorus before he presented it to Jagger.
*'Brown Sugar':* MJ's 'idea-for-a-song'.
But, it didn't become the great song we all know 'n love until KR 'worked' the arrangement. (like 'Sympathy....')
*'Wild Horses':*
KR: Riff/Tag/MelodyVerse.
MJ changed some lyrics & helped greatly with the arrangement.
*'Bitch':* KR: Riff/Tag/Melody/Chorus.
MJ wrote the verse lyrics & helped with the arrangement.
*'Sister Morphine':* KR takes an _'interesting-little-ditty'_ & re-arranges it into another iconic Stones song.
(much like what he did for 'Sympathy..')
That, plus the 1st half of the song discussed here ('CYHMK'); Is a pretty great achievement!
After years of it being just Keith (& Mick)
(& guests in the backdoor); They started to branch out & rely on others a bit.
(just like pre-'68)
But, rumours of Keef's demise are not accurate.
He even owns a piece of 'Moonlight Mile'. (go figure)
I said _"arrangement"_ a lot, knowing full well Jimmy Miller was a big part as well.
Peace. Stay Healthy!

En mi humilde opinión, es la mejor canción de esta legendaria banda, estaban en plena madurez de su carrera, que vivan lo rolling ! Saludos desde Ecatepec , México
Que viva Me'xico
Mick Taylor Master Guitarist
Mick Taylor years were the best!!
Hey man that's my ringtone.... it's the alternative one though with the few seconds at the beginning cut out.....🎉
Wait what! -😊lemme buy ya a drink 😊
It only takes a couple notes to realize what group is playing the song, one of their best!
CAN'T YOU HEAR ME KNOCKING
In the 90s I was eating at a little boutique restaurant in New York, and I heard the part of this song with the sax solo, that whole jazzy break down,, it sounded a little different than the studio album so I thought it was a live recording of this song but after the break down it started to sound different. I asked the bartender what we were listening to? He said it was.An old jazz album.that part is completely lifted from another song
This one, probably. Sticky Fingers is probably my favorite Stones album, and this track and Sister Morphine are my favorites on it.
mick taylor fantastic melodic blues guitarist you hear on this song
Practically every great riff or groove we all have ever heard came from a improving moment of time. From our favorite artists. How do i know. Because i have more useless musical knowledge in my brain than i certainly deserve. 😮
Wasn’t it used in the movie Casino?
Si este debe ser la mejor composición de los Stones la base Keith y el solo de Mick Taylor es una locura pura inspiración
An incredible song from start to finish!
Love Keith. I sure wish Mick Taylor could have stuck it out with the Stones. They were fabulous with him in the band (no offence to the great Ronny Wood).
My fav Keef riff is "This channel sux bollocks".
I'm still waiting for the story...
The best Song!!!!😂
So which guitar did Keef use for it? Tele? Les Paul?
I have always thought Keef felt a bit of a "threat" from Mick Taylor's abilities but Mick T just played it for the love of music and didn't have an ego agenda, he wasn't bothered if he was lead, rhythm or a side man.
For him to walk away from the Stones wasn't due to acrimony in the Band.
He was his own man.
It's a shame for fans of the Stones because he could have helped them achieve greater things but we will never know.
Paradoxically he was an amazing replacement for Brian Jones and took the band to an era so well defined because of his skills.
Ronnie Wood is a fantastic guitarist too but the fluidity Mick added is one of those things that comes along uniquely and just worked.
I still love the Stones but they've never had the "fit" and style after Mick Taylor's departing.
Ron Wood has a great stage presence but Mick Taylor's playing added so much feeling and soul to their sound. They've never been quite the same since Taylor's departure. I think he left because he developed a bad coke habit and had to have his nasal septum replaced. The craziness within the stones camp was probably more than he could handle.
@@bloppysloppy4057 I've been close to that nasal problem in the past but I don't even know how to play a chord.
So I guess a cheeky line or two doesn't mean it enhances or influences musical ability.
You've either got it or you haven't.
It was fun at the time but in the end, I too personally had to grow up.
What kind of cloud would Keith get?!"
Sad that Mick Taylor get so little credit for his contributions on the Stones greatest albums!
Was there actually a story in this video?
Exile is their masterpice in my opinion.
It’s all sooo good 😊
Just let the song play, talk afterwards Paul
Since more than half the song was from an impromptu jam I never understood why all of musicians didn't get listed as co composers.
On the Apple jam disc on All Things Must Pass the composer credits and royalties were split up amongst the players for each jam track.
Bobby Whitlock says he still gets royalty checks from it
ego---mick j n kr egos..why ya think taylor quit?? he said so
@@kevinjoseph517 exactly. Also Winter
Mick Taylor should have gotten more credit for this version
My fav. Keef rifff. Monky man.
mick taylor n bobby keys
Gimme Shelter!!
Rock version of Chico Hamilton's Conquistadorez
Not a lot of new information here.
I've always loved this song. But.....the inner jamming sounds remarkably like Stevie Windwood's "Traffic" music. I mean you could lift it right off of one of their albums. So this begs the question; who copied whom? Don't assume that just because it's "The Stones" they're incapable of lifting someone else's music style. My vote is for Stevie Windwood on this.....
Keith Richards hasn't been the band's lead guitarist since Brian Jones was fired.
yes but Goin Home is also a Great track
Sorry, but I think this song really belongs to Taylor. He made it what it is.
Y’all got cocaine eyes!!!!
Next time, try to use the word "iconic" a few more times, to make sure you remain on the cutting edge of using trendy, overused buzz words.
It’s chinese boots
The stones make the beatles look like a bunch of douchebags
Too bad it was Mick Taylor’s riff
This was ALL remedial, recycled (from other, UNCITED sources, mind you) info to any true blue Stones fan. All the editing of sound and imagery to produce this video SHOULD… & MUST NEVER paper over the fact that your video, essentially, is pointless/useless to any REAL Stones fan. So…congrats on pandering and kowtowing to know-nothing casuals…..I guess?
Let’s see you do a better one.
@@stephenfisch615what do you wanna know about the stones? Ama
@@stephenfisch615Good to know you’re a Stones casual though, Stephen-only long-in-tooth, short-on-good-sense-and-understanding-of-the-Stones’-oeuvre would find offense in my CLEARLY INFORMED critique. Why the need to self-own so much? Gotta problem? Ol Stevie F’s friends (probably): “he’s JUST ADDICTED to self-owns- I swear….how do you help someone who so EAGERLY jumps into the fray just to INEVITABLY be served up NOTHING but a steady diet of sh*t sandwiches…only to THEN claim to Actually ENJOY said sandwiches’ taste and argue for their validity, shamelessly and sans any detectable self-awareness. Some people can’t be helped, I suppose.” Man, your friends are VERY perceptive, Steph!!!
I totally agree.
Stephen ☝🏻🎤💃🎸✌🏻
I’ve heard better…
Your intro is a bit much and your urgent delivery is vacuous and platiduninous.
