That iconic guitar riff utilizing that fuzz pedal sound was ahead of its time and made that tune. Satisfaction contains all the ingredients that make a great hit. Its catchy, has a great hook, and its lyrics resonate and makes a powerful cultural statement. Certainly, a signature and career defining record for the Stones.

Maybe some other Stones historians on this site can clarify, but I thought I read somewhere that the plan was for Mick to duet with Leon for Jack Flash, or was that just some rumor or myth?

More than just a tour, I hope for good health to the Rolling Stones. These guys have given so much to the world for 60+ years! Whatever happens next, I cant express enough how their music was the soundtrack of my life and had gotten me through good times and bad!

QuoteRobertJohnson Many people who have heard Johnny Winter for the first time and ever intended to learn the guitar will have thought to themselves: Leave it, you'll never be able to play like that. There is no way to master this instrument anywhere near as well as Johnny. He also had a blues feel that was absolutely unique (It's My Own Fault on Johnny Winter And Live). I would have li

QuoteBig Al Get Yer Ya’Yas Out is a special album to me. I purchased it relatively early on in my fandom, knowing very little of Mick Taylor, or these amazing guitar-skills that I had read about. To say that his soloing on Sympathy For The Devil didn’t knock me sideways would be an understatement; especially considering that I, at first, mistook Keith’s solo for Taylor’s! I was thinking: ‘hey, th

QuoteStonedRambler Reading this thread it seems you all can’t comprehend that musicians love what their doing. Doing what you love and getting paid for it really well - what’s not to like? I think your assessment pretty much says it all. Musicians obviously must like what they do. Depending on who you are, you can get paid handsomely, and the adulation of the masses, along with all the perk

2024 saw the release of two more great Stones live releases: Live at the Wiltern, and the more recent Welcome to Shepherds Bush. With the exception of their last studio album, Hackney Diamonds, released 18 years after A Bigger Bang, the Stones have primarily padded their record catalogue with live Vault/DVD/CD packages, many of which from my estimation are forgettable and/or cash grabs.

My wife and I just got back from an evening showing of A Complete Unknown, the new Bob Dylan bio-pic. I really liked this movie. Very well acted by the entire ensemble. But special kudos to Timothee Chalamet who does a remarkable job of capturing Dylan and his music. It's no surprise that this movie is already garnering Oscar buzz.

Quotealfstone L.A. January 18th, 1973 Nicaraguan benefit concert gig in full soundboard, is now my holy grail. That version of No Expectations in particular. Smoking versions of Route 66, It´s All Over now, and Stray Cat Blues among others. I agree. This one just for the varied setlist at the time would be considered a holy grail release among hard core Stones fans.

I didn't buy all of them, but the ones I did pick up like Hot Rocks I & II, Beggars, Let it Bleed, Ya Yas, and Aftermath I was very satisfied with how they sounded sonically on my SACD player.
