    Bumped into Merry Clayton at the Gardenia nightclub in Hollywood back in the mid-1980s. She was walking out as I was walking in and I just sort of blurted out "Merry Clayton! You totally made that Stones song!" and she said, "Yes, honey, and Mick knows it too!" So many people all these years later, the two things that stand out for them most are Keith's guitar intro and Merry's lifting the whole affair into outer space with her glorious voice.

      my eldest playing this in his room, in his late twenties

      Before I started playing it!

    Could be one of the greatest rock songs in history. Jagger said Merry blew them away when she did her vocals. When her voice breaks at one point, it’s probably one of the most iconic sounds on any track. When the song came out, it blew us away. We lived it !!! The Let it Bleed album was second to none, at the time.

    I think this why so many songs are beloved by The Stones. Their form is pretty solid, but they were written to be played and were played loose and almost freeform so every time they're played, it's never the same way twice so the song is constantly evolving and is a living thing for them. And the best part is when covering it, you can put your own stamp on it!

    I got to see the Stones in 1975 when they played The Garden for 6 nights and using the Lotus Stage. I was at 6 shows, the great thing was that tickets were $12.50 each for tickets in the Red Section of MSG.

    Ron Wood when with The Faces and Keith both just created some of the sweetest rhythms in all of rock. I really feel to play there stuff correctly is just as much a challenge as any shredding.

    The guitar broke itself after realizing it had played the best song ever written and realized there was no need to carry on.

    That fast lick you did that you said wasn't really the type of like for this song was actually brilliant. Especially the way you ended the solo. It actually would sound good played only once like you said. It shows the difference between the simple yet effective licks and the more sophisticated runs and you can see how the more simple pentatonic fits this music better. Still that lick had feeling and melted my face at the same time.

    A few things:
    -Life hack for the open E part, downtune to open D and capo it to open E. You'll break less strings.
    -The neck of Keith's guitar came unseated which also knocked the pickup ring and pickup out of the guitar, and it is audible in the song.
    -He didn't always use standard for this live, he did capo'd open D to E, open G and Capo'd open A, all at various points.
    -The Sisters Of Mercy's cover is the best way to play it in standard.

    Actually, growing up in Northern California that tone was the one we all tried desperately to escape! Funny you mention it! When I was getting into guitar we were into all the distortion guys like Eddie VH, Randy Rhoades and other hard rock/metal players were getting. We likened the Stones, Beatles and pretty much anything before Hendrix and Black Sabbath started over driving the daylights out of everything to be old man rock n’ roll. Now that I’m an “old man” it’s impressive to hear how you emulate it though! Nice playin’ as usual! 😊
