Will the Stones capitalized on the anniversary of their greatest single?
June marks the released day in the US 50 years ago.
I hope a new generation gets turn on to the greatest rock song of all time.

From Wikipidea :

The Rolling Stones first recorded the track on 10 May 1965 at Chess Studios in Chicago[5] – a version featuring Brian Jones on harmonica. The group re-recorded it two days later at RCA Studios in Hollywood, with a different beat and the Gibson Maestro fuzzbox adding sustain to the sound of the guitar riff.[6][7] Richards envisioned redoing the track later with a horn section playing the riff: "this was just a little sketch, because, to my mind, the fuzz tone was really there to denote what the horns would be doing."[6] The other Rolling Stones, as well as producer and manager Andrew Loog Oldham and sound engineer David Hassinger eventually outvoted Richards and Jagger so the track was selected for release as a single.[7][8] The song's success boosted sales of the Gibson fuzzbox so that the entire available stock sold out by the end of 1965.[9]

Has the bootleg with Brian on harmonica ever surfaced?

A damn shame...it was barely there at the end!

I would say a Super The Lux Satisfaction Box set...with satisfaction guaranteed

Like most of the Stones' pre-1966 recordings, "Satisfaction" was originally released in mono only. In the mid-1980s, a true stereo version of the song was released on German and Japanese editions of the CD reissue of Hot Rocks 1964-1971. The stereo mix features a piano (played by session player Jack Nitzsche, who also provides the song's iconic tambourine) and acoustic guitar that are barely audible in the original mono release (both instruments are also audible on a bootleg recording of the instrumental track). This stereo mix of "Satisfaction" also appeared on a radio-promo CD of rare stereo tracks provided to US radio stations in the mid-1980s, but has not yet been featured on a worldwide commercial CD; even later pressings of the German and Japanese Hot Rocks CDs feature the mono mix, making the earlier releases with the stereo mix collectors' items. For the worldwide 2002 reissue of Hot Rocks, an alternate quasi-stereo mix was used featuring the lead guitar, bass, drums, and vocals in the center channel and the acoustic guitar and piano "split" left and right via a delay effect.[10]

It's this UK/Europe edition from 1985 of 'Hot Rocks 1964-1971'.

'Satisfaction' in Stereo: [www.youtube.com] .

It's rather a ping-pong stereo version and it's also contained on the east-german compilation 'The Rolling Stones' (LP / Cass.), AMIGA label, early 1982. The source for this compilation has been taken from the Telefunken-Decca Schallplatten GmbH (Teldec).

A slight stereo version of 'Satisfaction' is also contained on the U.S. version of the compilation 'Big Hits (High Tide and Green Grass)' from 2002.

I think we should diarize this thread again for May, for the proper anniversary.

Until then, let's all agree not to post on it.

No joke, as I was reading this thread, "Satisfaction" came on my iPod. If any numbers pop up in my head I'm immediately going to play the lottery.

Interesting question:

Was the day in 1965 of the 1st US-release of 'Satisfaction' as Single June 5 or 6?

Nico Zentgraf and Felix Aeppli say June 5 and Time Is On Our Side as well as Wikipedia say June 6.

It might have been June 5 - because the 6th was a Sunday. You can check the day of the week with a Calendar-App oder a perpetual calendar.

I question June altogether. The record was reviewed in week ending June 5 edition of Billboard.
