Greetings my Brotha Jamel, Would love to talk. L.A. home grown Brotha Alejandro here. Always diggin' your show. I've been in the music industry for over 30 years and have worked with some of these bands that you've heard for the first time. Thanks for the good feelings, thanks for being real. Peace, Love and good music. Brotha Alejandro âđđŒ alexvargas.tfs@gmail.com alexvargas.mantis@gmail.com
@@klb3293 Sway is a great tune,but,that whole album is bangin. but STILL have Exile as their overall peak. beggars banquet and let it bleed aint bad either!
If you haven't seen it; here's a link to what is the best version of "Tumbling Dice" I've ever heard. By one of the best voices and gorgeous women czcams.com/video/Ee_JltI6rHg/video.html
This is what guitarist Mick Taylor said about the recording of the song: The jam at the end just happened by accident; that was never planned. Towards the end of the song I just felt like carrying on playing. Everybody was putting their instruments down, but the tape was still rolling and it sounded good, so everybody quickly picked up their instruments again and carried on playing. It just happened, and it was a one-take thing. A lot of people seem to really like that part. (Wikipedia).
That's what he said years after, but if you listen it was Keith's riff that set the whole thing in motion. Perhaps parts were added later, but it doesn't sound at all like a completely spontaneous jam.
â@@ptownscribe1254It was probably a spontaneous jam to begin with, but sure, they subsequently layered on plenty of overdubs that built on what was originally laid down as a one off.
Without Keith riffs this song does not even exist and Taylor never even gets to do his solo. I love Taylor with the stones but enough of already! Keith's riffs are what makes these stones songs so memorable!
I have one with a working zipper :D It has slight rip at the bottom of the zipper because high school me wanted to see what was inside and pulled it too far open LOL. (it's just a pair of briefs inside nothing graphic)
The saxophonist, the late Bobby Keys, was born on the same day as Keith Richards, an ocean apart. RIP Texan. He also played sax for Lynyrd Skynyrd, Harry Nilsson, Delaney & Bonnie and Friends, George Harrison, John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Joe Cocker... I bet him and Clarence Clemons are belting out great solos in one hell of a heavenly band.
Bobby was from Slaton Texas, a little just down the road from my little town Lubbock. So the music folks around here boast Bobby Keys and Buddy Holly, who was a huge musical influence for Keith. Bobbyâs story is amazing, one of the greatest saxophone players. What a cool track
@@monkface A great live video to see Bobby playing live with the Stones is Sweet Virginia, think it was recorded in Fort Worth on the Exile on Main Street tour
"MONKEY MAN" "Tumbling Dice" "Angie" "As Tears Go By" "Bitch" "Ruby Tuesday" "Wild Horses" "You Can't Always Get What You Want" "Time Is On My Side" "Mother's Little Helper" I can't remember all the Stones songs you've done.
Jamel a year and a half ago: "I have no idea what this is or what I'm listening to" Jamel in Oct 2020: "Yes, this has quite the Santana sound, does it not?"
My favorite Stones song!! From Keith's crunchy opening riff to the extended solo of Bobby Keys on sax and Mick Taylor on guitar down to Billy Preston on the organ. Great choice Jamel!!đđ»âđŒđŻ
Not sure if Keith played the intro, since apparently he had almost nothing to do with this song (obviously overdubbed harmony vocals though). Taylor was perfectly capable of doing a Keef impersonation. But it is in Keith's style for sure.
@@ThePmfan yea I have the Deluxe reissue and there's a demo of this live in the studio. The riff is Keef from the beginning. As is the transition riff into the sax solo. Sway on the other hand sounds like Keith but it's Jagger
Can't go wrong with the Stones Jamel. I highly recommend "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and "Midnight Rambler". Thanks for brightening everybody's day!
âWild Horsesâ, âAngie â, âYou Gotta Moveâ âTumbling Diceâ ,âEmotional Rescueâ all great songs from what I call the Stones third act. Following the English Invasion and Blues periods.
It's one thing to call yourselves the Greatest Rock in Roll Band in the world, it is a whole different thing to live up to that. The STONES certainly do. I have seen them seven times and after each show, I said this was the best I ever saw. They just kept raising the bar.
The sax was played by Bobby Keys one of the best sax players in rock music. He was not a member of the stones . he played sessions with many of the greats
Yeah, he got around for sure. He was called the 6th Stone however and was usually on tour with them. He and Keith even had the same birthday, even the same year. A good Texan from Slaton, just outside of Lubbock.
@@myoman1977 A couple years ago. His autobiography is a great read. âEvery nights a Saturday night, and every mornings a Sundayâ or something like that.
Hey brotha! You've got to check out the album "Exile on Main Street". "Tumbling Dice", "Sweet Virginia" and "Rocks Off" would be choice cuts but that whole album is amazing. Peace and love ~!
Time Waits for No One --- one of the best Stones jams featuring atypical Stones players, Mick Taylor on slide, Nicky Hopkins on piano, Ray Cooper on percussion. Probably their most underrated song of all time.
Need to check out âDirty Macâ cover of âYer Bluesâ John Lennon: lead vocals/ rhythm guitar Kieth Richards: bass Eric Clapton: lead guitar Mitch Mitchell: drums Nuff said...
This is one of my favorite bands, and most of their songs never die. You can play this tune over and over, and you will always find it pleasing to listen to it. Mick Taylor's guitar solo (on the left channel) represents how good of a guitar player he is, and the Saxo solo, thank you, Bobby Keys, you were great. The Rolling Stones is one of those bands that had it together from the beginning till now.
That Killer Opening Riff is the Genius of KEITH RICHARDS a MASTER of Most of the Stones Driving Riffs! And a Shout Out to Bobby Keys RIP on the Brilliant Sax Work! ...Newk from Kentucky
Jamel, here is one more band that you haven't reviewed yet, and they definitely deserve it. The Chambers Brothers "Time has come Today" Huge hit back in 1967, and was even more huge with the guys stuck over in 'nam at the time, and is considered one of the landmark songs of the psychedelic era.
....GREAT choice...Iâve been âsecondingâ various peopleâs suggestion of that tasty cut for some months now...hopefully J will get to it sooner than later...:)!
Would love to hear âWild Horsesâ by The Rolling Stones next. It was one of my late sisters favorite songs by them and she requested it be played at her funeral, a request we honored. Every time I hear it, I feel as if sheâs âvisiting meâ and âchecking inâ. Thanks đ
The Stones were at their best when they augmented the core band with elite outside talent. Gimme Shelter with Merrie Clayton and this one, with the all-too-brief addition of the only true lead guitarist the band ever had, Mick Taylor, and the late, great Bobby Keyes on tenor sax.
Wow, guess all that lead guitar and solos on Time is On My Side, Little Red Rooster, It's All Over Now, The Last Time, Sympathy for the Devil, Gimme Shelter, Monkey Man, Honky Tonk Women, Bitch, Wild Horses, Happy, Beast of Burden, Shattered, Start Me Up, She Was Hot, Undercover of the Night, etc., etc., etc. was played by a ghost!
This whole album is beautiful, one of their best. Mandatory listening. I can't say enough good things about this record, "Sticky Fingers", a classic rock masterpiece.
Mick Taylor's solo has a Latin atmosphere, but it is also very bluesy and subtle. Maybe it reminds Santana, but this is a different beast. Extremely soulful.
Man, you nailed the analysis! Legendary jam off one of the classic Stones albums from the Mick Taylor years--with a fine improvised solo from the man himself. Terrific work from the whole band in fact, with a signature Keith Richards riff to kick it off, and then the weaving polyrhythms of Richards, Watts and Wyman to carry it along. Great contributions as well from honorary Stones Bobby Keys (wailing away on tenor) and the great Billy Preston (filling out the groove on organ).
Seeing "Casino" and "Blow" brought me to this song. I heard those riffs, and I'm like, "Which one is this!?" Because I already loved the Rolling Stones. That whole instrumental coda after the main part of the song ends was basically just the guys jamming out, improvising.
Mick Taylor,so underrated and invaluable to the Stones sound in the early 70's. Check out these bangers (they have so many),Starfucker,and in recent years,Doom and Gloom.
âWild Horsesâ from the same album is another incredible song from The Rolling Stones. This was before Ron Woods joined the band (who was playing guitar previously in Faces with Rod Stewart)
I had no idea for years when I was a kid that this was the Stones. This has got to be one of my most favorite Stones tunes. Another one from this era that's my jam is "It's Only Rock 'n' Roll (But I Like It)".
I'm a huge Stones fan, I like all of their Lineups that string of albums with Mick Taylor, most of them were produced by Jimmy Miller, was incredible. They've done a couple od songs that I consider to better overall musically, I think that this is the best thing that they've ever done. The that Keith and Charlie get going, the Bobby Keys solo, the Taylor solo at the end is mind-boggling. Mick Taylor says that it's one of his favourites and that the jam at the end just happened by accident; that was never planned. Towards the end of the song I just felt like carrying on playing. Everybody was putting their instruments down, but the tape was still rolling and it sounded good, so everybody quickly picked up their instruments again and carried on playing. It just happened, and it was a one-take thing. A lot of people seem to really like that part. Keith had this to say: The jam at the end wasn't inspired by Carlos Santana. We didn't even know they were still taping. We thought we'd finished. We were just rambling and they kept the tape rolling. I figured we'd just fade it off. It was only when we heard the playback that we realised, Oh, they kept it going. Basically we realised we had two bits of music. There's the song and there's the jam.
R.I.P. to Bobby Keys. He was kind of the "Forest Gump" of R&R. He was a session guy in the early 60's, was on the Maddogs and Englishmen tour with Joe Cocker and Leon Russell and was the sax guy for the stones for over a decade.
This is one of the best song Mick Jagger and Keith Richards ever wrote, and Mick Taylor is phenomenal. as is the performance of saxophonist, Bobby Keys. I love how this song breaks down, and goes into that incredible groove for the sax solo. This is a great song
They probably were, but it likely would've happened that way had Peter Frampton, Clapton, or any highly competent blues-oriented guitar player joined them in 1969. Funny thing is Clapton questioned why they even needed another guitarist besides Keith.
Helluva groove indeed. I am so happy to see you enjoying the STONES. I mean, they will never be equaled. One of the best times in your life was when you had tickets to see the Stones no matter WHERE you were sitting it was a party. Nonstop funky groove.
The unsung hero of this and most rolling stone tracks is Charlie Watts. The man is a living breathing groove machine and is still going strong at nearly 80 years old. Monkey Man is another great song. No big drum solos, no fancy time changes or fills. His job is to carry the band, set the groove and let them do their thing. And ANY Stones song with Bobby Keys is a great one.
My favorite Stones song and one epic jam session. I'm not surprised at the jazz influence in that session. Charlie Watts, their drummer, is one helluva jazz aficionado. It's his first love.
I'm a Beatles fan, but I liked the early Stones ,get off my cloud ,etc...then in the early 70s they came to Milwaukee ,I saw them live,they blew me away so a few weeks later ĂŹ drove up to Minneapolis Minnesota to hear them again been a big fan ever since.
Yes. Jamel, check some more of the Stones earlier stuff (before Brian Jones disintegrated): âUnder My Thumb', 'Play with Fireâ, 'Mother's Little Helper', âOut of Time', 'The Spider and the Fly', 'Ruby Tueday' etc., etc. Plus a couple neat instrumentals from the Rolling Stones: '2120 South Michigan Avenue' and 'Stoned'.
You've been through most of my music collection(by bands). Give the band Traffic a try. Low Spark of High Heeled Boys live. And Derek and the Dominos live. Why Does Love Have to be so Sad and Let It Rain. Peace.
@@robertnathan2843 I think one of the interesting things about the live album is that it doesn't have Layla on it. I only listen to this album on at least 8.
@@robertnathan2843 If you've never heard the Fillmore show congrats. You have a singular experience waiting for you. Enjoy in whatever way makes you happy.
I read a Rolling Stone interview with Jagger back when this album came out and the interviewer was fawning all over him and praising the group and he said " We're just a blues band ". HA! I've never forgotten that for some reason.:)

Mick Taylor on lead, my absolute favorite era of the Stones.
Definitely
Mick Taylor was great.
Obvio
Saw Taylor solo twice in the 80's. This song was always the encore. Great blues guitarist is he.
Yeah, he was the Stones' virtuoso guitarist
I second "Moonlight Mile" and also recommend "Tumbling Dice".
Sway best song on Album!!!
Both excellent song!
@@klb3293 Sway is a great tune,but,that whole album is bangin.
but STILL have Exile as their overall peak.

the incredible thing is that every single instrument on the whole last part of the song with Mick Taylorâs solo is completely improvised
I've heard it a thousand times and it never gets old
right on!
đ€đžđ„đ¶đ„đ§šđŁđ„
It's got that bad ass feel.
Yes! Old Stones music really holds up. Lot of their songs still used in movie, TV.
My all-time favorite Stones song - and "Sticky Fingers" is my all-time favorite Stones album
Ditto. Same for me too.
My favorite Stones tune, by a mile.
Mick Taylor era FTW!!! đ
I second that!
My favorite album too
The guitar intro is killer, give me goosebumps

My Favorite Stone's track! Really amazing!
A moment never to be repeated.
YEAH!
Perhaps the most memorable sax solo ever. Thank you Bobby Keys. May he rest in peace.
Yes Indeed đ¶đ·
Bobby at his BEST
you seem to be forgetting a certain individual by the name of Coltrane...
The intro riff on this song is just amazing. This song has so much swagger and swing to it. And that tone Keith is pulling is perfection.
has to be the best opening riffs ever
Billy Preston on organ.đ
Mick Taylor on lead guitar ballsy Les Paul has blown Keith Richards off the stage. Get real!
@@arothko8939Who cares as this is about Mick Taylor on guitar. WTF!
Without Keith riffs this song does not even exist and Taylor never even gets to do his solo. I love Taylor with the stones but enough of already! Keith's riffs are what makes these stones songs so memorable!
The zipper is functional on the original album covers. Caused a lot of broken records during shipping.
Yeah. Mine remained intact thankfully!
I still have my copy.

I have one with a working zipper :D It has slight rip at the bottom of the zipper because high school me wanted to see what was inside and pulled it too far open LOL. (it's just a pair of briefs inside nothing graphic)

The last instrumental part of this song is phenomenal!
WORD!!!! đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„
Mick Taylor rinsing
I heard it was recorded accidentally, it wasn't intended to be part of the song...
yes they kept the tape rolling to capture one of the greatest jams ever recorded.
During an era when the electric guitar was king, there was some crazy good sax work going on in there.
This and monkey man are two of my favorite Rolling Stones songs
I can't imagine anyone else singing Monkey Man, it's pretty much WHO MICK JAGGER IS (or was at least)
Me too
Yep!!!! Mine too
Same here
Monkey man. One of my favorites also...oh and the entire Exile on main Street album.
Gimme Shelter. Merry Clayton's guest vocals are amazing on that one.
He did that one already
Jamel a year and a half ago: "I have no idea what this is or what I'm listening to"
Jamel in Oct 2020: "Yes, this has quite the Santana sound, does it not?"

Really? I guess I am at the other side of the spectrum. I love Emotional Rescue, for all the DRMA baby!

Please do Jamel
Sauce for days and days.
Love this song!!! Low spark of high heel boys!!!
...âcooks slowerâ....PERRRRRFECT description...props to you...:)!!

love this song. The stank on this riff at the beginning part tide could not wash out whoooo!
ITâS SO DAMN DIRTAY!!!!!!
The crunchy guitar tone man. Love it
I highly recommend "Moonlight Mile" and "Sister Morphine". Love your positive vibes, Jamel!
Moonlight Mile... still remember the first time I heard this one. By far one of my favorites.
Sister Morphine doesn't get enough reactions! One of my favorites from the Stones.
Moonlight Mile is epic...Essential listening !
Moonlight Mile was what made me fall in love with the Stones.
Seconded! Moonlight Mile and Sister Morphine are incredible -- definitely the two most haunting tracks on Sticky Fingers.
The great Billy Preston on the Hammond 3B organ.
My mom got me into the Stones when I was a kid she's 75 thanks momma
The sax was played by Bobby Keys one of the best sax players in rock music. He was not a member of the stones . he played sessions with many of the greats
Yeah, he got around for sure. He was called the 6th Stone however and was usually on tour with them. He and Keith even had the same birthday, even the same year. A good Texan from Slaton, just outside of Lubbock.

EXILE ON MAIN STREET is the shit, y'all!
Monkey Man has similar nasty riffs. One of my favorite Stones songs.
You forgot Jivin' Sister Fanny

Impressed you caught the Santana vibe; Mick Taylor said his guitar solo was based on his impressions of "Abraxas".
That was a great version of the Stones because Taylor was a great lead guitarist.

Jamel, we know you. You will be shaking your finger at us for requesting this one. Cow bell nirvana.
Absolutely! He must do the long album version though.
I was so excited for you to hear this song! yay! Take care Jamel.
Magnificent & Powerful. This is why they're the Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World.
One of the best live cuts is âMidnight Ramblerâ on Get Your YaYaâs Out. Stones have always been in a class by themselves.
At 72 I've heard it all, this is the greatest rock song on the greatest rock album of ALL TIME......
sirius xm classic vinyl did a poll top 50 lp's of 50 years this came in second next to zep 4 i think it was more like a tie for #1
I recommend the song Bitch from this same album,got a down and dirty vibe to it with a great use of brass instruments đ
And it rocks hard & fast!
My recommendation, too
The second half of this song was a substantial hit on R&B stations around the country.

Mick Taylor's solo has a Latin atmosphere, but it is also very bluesy and subtle. Maybe it reminds Santana, but this is a different beast. Extremely soulful.
Man, you nailed the analysis! Legendary jam off one of the classic Stones albums from the Mick Taylor years--with a fine improvised solo from the man himself. Terrific work from the whole band in fact, with a signature Keith Richards riff to kick it off, and then the weaving polyrhythms of Richards, Watts and Wyman to carry it along. Great contributions as well from honorary Stones Bobby Keys (wailing away on tenor) and the great Billy Preston (filling out the groove on organ).
Thats what I'm talking bout. I have the album with zipper. Every song is badass
This friggin introđ„Oooooozes Pure ROCK!!!
Seeing "Casino" and "Blow" brought me to this song. I heard those riffs, and I'm like, "Which one is this!?" Because I already loved the Rolling Stones. That whole instrumental coda after the main part of the song ends was basically just the guys jamming out, improvising.
I my humble opinion, one of the Stones best songs.
Mick Taylor,so underrated and invaluable to the Stones sound in the early 70's.
Check out these bangers (they have so many),Starfucker,and in recent years,Doom and Gloom.
âWild Horsesâ from the same album is another incredible song from The Rolling Stones. This was before Ron Woods joined the band (who was playing guitar previously in Faces with Rod Stewart)
I had no idea for years when I was a kid that this was the Stones. This has got to be one of my most favorite Stones tunes. Another one from this era that's my jam is "It's Only Rock 'n' Roll (But I Like It)".
I'm a huge Stones fan, I like all of their Lineups that string of albums with Mick Taylor, most of them were produced by Jimmy Miller, was incredible. They've done a couple od songs that I consider to better overall musically, I think that this is the best thing that they've ever done. The that Keith and Charlie get going, the Bobby Keys solo, the Taylor solo at the end is mind-boggling. Mick Taylor says that it's one of his favourites and that the jam at the end just happened by accident; that was never planned. Towards the end of the song I just felt like carrying on playing. Everybody was putting their instruments down, but the tape was still rolling and it sounded good, so everybody quickly picked up their instruments again and carried on playing. It just happened, and it was a one-take thing. A lot of people seem to really like that part. Keith had this to say: The jam at the end wasn't inspired by Carlos Santana. We didn't even know they were still taping. We thought we'd finished. We were just rambling and they kept the tape rolling. I figured we'd just fade it off. It was only when we heard the playback that we realised, Oh, they kept it going. Basically we realised we had two bits of music. There's the song and there's the jam.
Definitely knew that Jamel would love this track...it has the big changes and all the stankface moments that get him tappin his toes. đ
every time i hear this song, i think of the movie Blow....and cocaine....this was the intro music for the film.
Cannot leave the Stones off of the list of rockers!!! They have rocked us out for a long time!!!!đ
Man you put a smile on this old mans face. Your reaction when first hearing these great songs is the same as mine. Thank you.
I recommend Sway off this same album, my two favs...
Love Sway,..
Mick Taylor goes to blues Nirvana on that tune...
Agreed! Love how the rhythm section is dialed in on this one.
R.I.P. to Bobby Keys. He was kind of the "Forest Gump" of R&R. He was a session guy in the early 60's, was on the Maddogs and Englishmen tour with Joe Cocker and Leon Russell and was the sax guy for the stones for over a decade.
Thank you Jamel. Been waiting for this one. Knew you would love it. Always look forward to see what you got up your sleeve my friend. âïž
This is one of the best song Mick Jagger and Keith Richards ever wrote, and Mick Taylor is phenomenal. as is the performance of saxophonist, Bobby Keys. I love how this song breaks down, and goes into that incredible groove for the sax solo. This is a great song
The Stones were at their peak with Mick Taylor on guitar, imho.
If you look in wikipedia at their discography, all the albums Mick Taylor was in went platinum or multi-platinum.
@@edb6690 As did all the ones after he left, and several before he joined.
They probably were, but it likely would've happened that way had Peter Frampton, Clapton, or any highly competent blues-oriented guitar player joined them in 1969. Funny thing is Clapton questioned why they even needed another guitarist besides Keith.
Definitely! Best era of the Stones hands down đđ€đ»âđ»đ
@@ptownscribe1254 The Allman Brothers were the answer to Clapton's question, imho...
Killer song choice, Jamel. You gotta do "Dead Flowers" next. My favorite Stones song!
Helluva groove indeed. I am so happy to see you enjoying the STONES. I mean, they will never be equaled. One of the best times in your life was when you had tickets to see the Stones no matter WHERE you were sitting it was a party. Nonstop funky groove.
One of the greatest Stones jams on record.... Yes, the brilliant Bobby Keys on sax. RIP maestro
Mick Jagger said in an interview that Mick Taylor's guitar was so good they just kept the tape rolling lol
but now royalties for creating the music
The unsung hero of this and most rolling stone tracks is Charlie Watts. The man is a living breathing groove machine and is still going strong at nearly 80 years old. Monkey Man is another great song. No big drum solos, no fancy time changes or fills. His job is to carry the band, set the groove and let them do their thing. And ANY Stones song with Bobby Keys is a great one.
My favorite Stones song and one epic jam session. I'm not surprised at the jazz influence in that session. Charlie Watts, their drummer, is one helluva jazz aficionado. It's his first love.
I highly recommend Sticky Fingers album that this song comes from. That cover is also from the great Andy Warhol.
The best rock n roll sax player Bobby Keyes
I'm a Beatles fan, but I liked the early Stones ,get off my cloud ,etc...then in the early 70s they came to Milwaukee ,I saw them live,they blew me away so a few weeks later ĂŹ drove up to Minneapolis Minnesota to hear them again been a big fan ever since.
Yes. Jamel, check some more of the Stones earlier stuff (before Brian Jones disintegrated):
âUnder My Thumb', 'Play with Fireâ, 'Mother's Little Helper', âOut of Time', 'The Spider and the Fly', 'Ruby Tueday' etc., etc.
Plus a couple neat instrumentals from the Rolling Stones: '2120 South Michigan Avenue' and 'Stoned'.
One of the very best guitar intros of all times. Half a century ago!
Honky Tonk Women next...please and thank you đ ps... please do studio version not live. Much love â€ïž
Get the cowbell ready!!
You've been through most of my music collection(by bands). Give the band Traffic a try. Low Spark of High Heeled Boys live. And Derek and the Dominos live. Why Does Love Have to be so Sad and Let It Rain. Peace.
Don't forget, Have You Ever Loved A Woman
@@robertnathan2843 I think one of the interesting things about the live album is that it doesn't have Layla on it. I only listen to this album on at least 8.
Didn't realize you meant the Live album.Cool. Just listened to the Layla album,on 11. Skipped Layla.
@@robertnathan2843 If you've never heard the Fillmore show congrats. You have a singular experience waiting for you. Enjoy in whatever way makes you happy.
I read a Rolling Stone interview with Jagger back when this album came out and the interviewer was fawning all over him and praising the group and he said " We're just a blues band ". HA! I've never forgotten that for some reason.:)
The Stones are Gods!!! Loved Mick Taylor!!!!
