Lotta cool on that stage, but in this performance, Bill Wyman with his gum chewing don't give a damn attitude tops them all.

I was 30. TV had a Huge influence on me, musically and Everything else.
(including cigarette commercials with actors dressed as Doctors, taking
refreshing cigarette break. good for the ol' health ya know...)
...yes incredible memories of seeing these buyoant young men,
i was probably just 13 if that. it got all the way through though,
it really did!
that attitude. the natural body language of each of them.
charles so solemn and focused. it's all there.
mick mugging but knowing where 2nd gear is, then through the rest of them,
shake that little mane casually; he's perfectly Mick already.

"The Last Time" is a song by the English rock band the Rolling Stones,[1] and the band's first single written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.[1] Recorded at RCA Studios in Hollywood, California in January 1965, "The Last Time" was the band's third UK single to reach number one on the UK Singles Chart, spending three weeks at the top in March and early April 1965.[2] It reached number two in the Irish Singles Chart in March 1965.
Although "The Last Time" is credited to Jagger/Richards, the song's refrain is very close to "This May Be the Last Time", a 1958 song by the Staple Singers. In 2003, Richards acknowledged this,[3] saying: "we came up with 'The Last Time', which was basically re-adapting a traditional gospel song that had been sung by the Staple Singers, but luckily the song itself goes back into the mists of time." The Rolling Stones' song has a main melody and a hook (a distinctive guitar riff) that were both absent in the Staple Singers' version. Phil Spector, whose "Wall of Sound" approach can be heard on the recording, assisted with the production.
Footage still exists of a number of performances of this song by the Rolling Stones in 1965: from the popular BBC-TV music show Top of the Pops, the 1965 New Musical Express Poll Winners Concert and American TV shows including The Ed Sullivan Show and Shindig!. A full live performance is also prominently featured in the 2012 re-edit of the 1965 documentary Charlie Is My Darling. The footage confirms that the rhythm chords and guitar solo were played by Keith Richards, while the song's distinctive hook was played by Brian Jones, suggesting that Jones may have composed that riff.[citation needed]
A popular song in the Stones' canon, it was regularly performed in concert during the band's 1965, 1966 and 1967 tours. It was left off their concert set lists until 1997–98, when it reappeared on the Bridges to Babylon Tour. It later appeared on some of the band's set lists in 2012–13 on the 50 & Counting tour.
