The Rolling Stones Gimme Shelter Live Pop Go The Sixites 1969

[@jacksonmiked]

This was 55 years ago. Mick and Keith are still at it. Incredible.

[@mikecinquen]

[@samemery6277]

Sonically, there’s no song in history that touches Gimme Shelter. So ahead of it’s time.

[@rickhager3288]

You are so right about the sonics - the sound of this song. I was there in '69 to buy it own it listen to it. And I've been listeing ever since. Let it Bleed is their best album of all time and it never disappoints, especially this great, phenomenal track.

[@victoriawunderlich]

so true no one is cooler and no one moves like Jagger......thumbs up if you agree

Jagger is the only one to be live here, as often the band recorded the soundtrack before.

[@tizianalancia7679]

This is a TV show and probably they’re miming. When the song was first recorded, Mick Taylor didn’t play with the Stones yet; Richards had to write and play all the guitar parts for the absence of Jones and maybe that’s why we can hardly see him on this footage

[@manuelgomes1569]

One of the appealing things about the stones was Charlie Watts, he looked like he never gave a f*&%....he was just there, and my little knowledge tells me he would have rather been playing on a Coltrane album. He and Ringo were the greatest rock drummers for the simplicity. Both had different styles, but both were freaking great at what they did and what they offered each song their bands handed to them.

A great friend said they played this song when they blacked out in a Herk, crossin the fence goin into Afghanistan, droppin in low level. Gives me chills now. Apparently it was Johns idea. Love that.
