I played the actual song for my wife one time. She said “sounds like his guitar has a sore throat” - I told her that was one of the best compliments you could ever give a guitar tone!
When The Stones got Mick Taylor in the band by 69.They went back to their original Rock/Blues sound.That opening riff is by far one of the most raunchyiest of all time. 😃 😊 😀
Hi James James, I just bought a new telecaster as a reward to myself for beating cancer!!!! Are there any other open g songs you cover or breakdown for us? Btw I love this Tele! Not as much as your wisdom and patience! I can't tell you how important you've been to me lying here in bed for months playing my strat with your songs.... I'm not sure how I would've gotten through this ordeal without you. From the bottom of my heart thank you for being my outlet to forget about everything I was going through for a little while..... Thank you again, you're the best!!!!!
Syrupy bluesy riffs and fills conjure images of smoke-filled bars and endless nights. Just outstanding. That opening riff's been my ringtone for the past several years and never disappoints.
Great to see it played out. One of the most brilliant solos ever. Only Mick Taylor could put that strange mix of notes together and turn them into intoxicating pleasure. Thanks!
This is amazing. The retune mid-song is incredibly classy, musically done. But the fills you threw in during the open G intro were especially tasty and inspiring... so much to learn from this video! Thank you again.
The thing with JJs channels (PT and this one) is that even with the covers he posts you can learn the song so easily or at least something about it. For example, I have just realized that if I crank up the reverb from my Marshall I will nail the guitar tone from this song completely. Or maybe listening too much to the Stones is blessing my fingers or my god damn right hand. Thanks for everything James!!!

Greatest opening riff ever.

Keith is a genius. Good job.

Mick T sure knew how to throw down a tasteful, memorable solo.
Man that riff is infectious
This man has the best t shirt collection I’ve ever seen, especially on the Stones.
This is absolutely wicked. The tune is obviously seared into your soul and your playing is superb.
Thumbs up here that this is The Best Stones Tune of All Time. Thx, JJ!

Sir you are truly a great guitar player and i miss your tutorials and stories very much.
Thank you Mr James! Those of us with Sticky Fingers salute you.

Richards couldn't have played it any better, one of his greatest riffs in my opinion.
You are the only guy that got this song down perfectly!!! Such a rocker, thank you kind sir
This is my Favorite Stones song of all time Perfectly done Great job !!!!!
Just terrific! Retuned on the fly and didn’t miss a beat. Mick Taylor channeling his inner Santana on the solo? Sounds that way to me.
