The guy yells 'Paint It Black'. There is no way it's confusing or anything else.

What do you hear the woman shouting out for in GYYYO then? Let It Rock there as well ?
Eeeeeehm, yes. Simply because in 1969, mid-sixties psychedelia was gone and people were up for, yes, ROCK. Plus, shouting "Let It Rock" in a Stones show is not too far off the mark. It's surely not like shouting "Let It Rock" in an ABBA concert, right?
Sorry, but I'm just trying to stay logical.

Eeeeeehm, yes. Simply because in 1969, mid-sixties psychedelia was gone and people were up for, yes, ROCK. Plus, shouting "Let It Rock" in a Stones show is not too far off the mark. It's surely not like shouting "Let It Rock" in an ABBA concert, right?

Of course I was joking here (just acting before instead of reacting after the complaints roll in!).

Wow, this is just freaky!
When I listen to this and have the words "Let it Rock" in my head, as if that's what I'm expecting him to say, I clearly hear "Let it rock."

I've done this now about 10 times each way, and I hear it clearly both ways depending on whether I'm listening for confirmation of LIR or PIB.
It's like a brain teaser, or something.
I don't doubt when considering the historical "evidence and context" that it's probably PIB, but I DO hear Let it Rock also when listening for that.

Do you see an old hag, or a young woman? This thread is sort of the aural equivalent of this old visual illusion.
I can still hear both, depending on what I want to hear when I listen to this!
For years I thought this was LIR until now forced to re-examine it. But I'm now ready to concede and defer to the PIB'ers.
Fun thread.

Ridiculous thread!
Tis all quite straight forward, quite simply this guy wanted to hear them play Paint It Black.

Or he just wanted to shout out loud 'paint it black'. That can happen you know, this sudden urge to shout. Maybe he hates the song.

It's so clearly "Paint It Black," I can't even believe this is up for debate!

I listened to it again over the weekend and still think it's Let it Rock, called out with an American accent - maybe Bobby Keys?

I really don't get it. It's so obvious!
After the release of YaYa's in late 70 with the famous Paint it black scream it had started to become a running gag at Stones gigs to do/repeat those funny interruptions. It happened first on the 71 British tour and on many other tours later.

Why would Bobby Keys shout Paint It Black? It wasn't on the set list, he wouldn't play on it if it was and it aint his type of music anyway.

Not having listened to it over headphones, I'm still a Let it Rock proponent...

Really? First I'd heard of this. And they finally obliged about 18 years later!

You never experienced it? Particularly in the 70's there have always been some more or less drunken fellows who tried to be witty by repeating those requests.
