Always liked the outro more than the song actually. Everytime I play GHS I cant wait till they get to the second half of the song, always cranking up the volume.

I love it as well.
One of the best songs the Stones have ever done.
Right up there with Sway & Hand of Fate for me!

Interesting Mick song, goes a bit too many places possibly...Supposed to have been started in 1970, not that there's been any documented evidence of that unfortunately.

Hello friends!
I haven't been on in a while. Today I have a question. 100 Years Ago is one of my favourite Stones songs, but is one that I've always thought never lived up to its potential. The first half is good, SO GOOD, but once it comes to the sped-up jam to the end I think it loses its whimsical freshness and becomes what is actually pretty alright for an outro, but for another song. So are there out there any demos or rehearsal recordings of it stripped down? Kind of like the acoustic version of All Down the Line somewhere out there.
Cheers.......

I realize I am in the minority, but the Billy Preston era was the low point of the Stones in the studio. I chalk it up to Keith being chemically elsewhere.

You're not in the minority at all. This period is widely considered by many to be one of their low points, and rightly so in my opinion.
