The Satisfaction question the answer should have been A tape recorder, not a fuzz box. They got the fuzz box in L.A. after they first recorded it at Chess Studios the day before. If it wasn't for the tape recorder Keith had Satisfaction may never had happened???
60-70% is a good score.Quote

According to timeisonourside Keith said in an interview in 1992:
"Whatever it was, it was the first (fuzztone box) Gibson made. I was screaming for more distortion: This riff's really gotta hang hard and long, and we burnt the amps up and turned the shit up, and it still wasn't right. And then Ian Stewart went around the corner to Eli Wallach's Music City or something and came around with a distortion box. Try this. It was as off-hand as that. It was just from nowhere. I never got into the thing after that, either. It had a very limited use, but it was just the right time for that song."
I would think the cassette recorder was more inspirational for Street Fighting Man.

He had the riff before the pedal.
The question is stupid. What was the inspiration? The horns on Nowhere To Run.
They didn't give that option.

The story I read was that Keith dreamt the riff in a hotel in Clearwater FLA..................therefore nothing actually inspired it.......the tape recorder came in, in that he woke up and in a stupor played the riff into a cassette recorder., promptly fell asleep again, woke in the morning (or evening) and at some point later looked at the cassette, saw it had played through to the end of the tape and instantly knew there must be something on there but couldn't remember what so rewound the tape and 'discovered' Satisfaction.............Mick, apparently, wrote the words a short time later..........

95% The question I answered incorrectly being the one several here seemingly stumbled on: 'how many U.S. No.1 albums?'
