Anyone know the tab/way to play the piano lick of S & C? I can't quite figure it out, but it's damn catchy!

I do not play piano but it sure sounds like what the guitar equivalent of playing a series of descending chromatic sixths---a classic blues run.

with the actual topic out of the way, I'd just add that although it's far from a great song it is one of very few to feature Ian Stewart up front in the mix, so it holds a special place for me...

So here is the real question, Did Keith come up with this on the Piano? Keith is pretty famous for writting alot of stones songs on Piano,is this one of them? I know he wrote Lets Spend The Night Togehter and You Got ME Rockin On Piano, I asume he did with this as well and then had Ian play it on the record.

Filler material, but Oh how I loved that sound. Classic Stones riffs with the vocals thrown in as an after thought. Captures the essence of the Taylor years with everyone playing their roles perfectly. Would be a cool B stage song these days, yet without Stew this would be tough for me to handle.

I can just imagine all the angry threads popping up if they played this song in concert with Chuck.

doubt it. he plays piano, but not the rock 'n' roll style of piano that this song depends on.

thanks for posting this, really cool! the bass part is classic blues style with the long- short notes. I think technically to be the music called "boogie"the notes are played evenly. but you know, its very fast. and step wise its a little different.
