The second half of this song is one of the greatest accidents in music.
Second half was just a jam that wasn’t even originally planned for the song. Thank God the tape was rolling. Sticky Fingers is still my go to Stones album. Just timeless.
I agree. Sticky Fingers is my favorite Stones album.
And Goats Head Soup for me.
One of at least the top 20 rock albums of all time.
Beggars Banquet, Let it Bleed, Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main Street all make my top 20 albums list. Then again, I’m admittedly a bit biased, as I have been a Stones fanatic since I first heard them at 9 years old - 53 years ago 🤘
Sticky fingers and Let it Bleed, my favourites. I still have them on the same casette tape. Moonlight Mile did not fit on b side😂
The genius of Mick Taylor in evidence here.
Agree although that was Keith Richards playing that guitar intro.
@@ronawood did I say he wasn't?
@@dougww1ectebow lighten up Francis.
@@ronawood show me on the doll where I hurt you.
Outro guitar solo was Mick Taylor, the best guitarist the stones ever had.
You speak truth. Maybe the best musician (between him & Charlie.)
Truth
Meh
Technically, Mick was the best, but he didn’t have the Rizz…. Ronnie brought the Rizz..
Keith said fans of the band consider the Mick Taylor years as the Stones' best lineup.
The song was supposed to end with the final lyric. The Stones and guest musicians just kept playing in a freewheeling impromptu jam session. It was so good they kept the extended music add on as an afterthought. Life is better because of it.
This was when the Stones were at the top of their game.
This is peak Rolling Stones era. For many, the albums Beggars Banquet (1968), Let it Bleed (1969) and Sticky Fingers (1971) are the top of the mountain (add in Exile on Main Street, 1972) 👍😁
This was the best period in the Stones' wonderful career
The whole thing is "one take" the ending is completely improvised!! They didn't even know it was being recorded. Bobby Keys on sax and Billy Preston on keys. Mick Taylor just tripped that guitar part...... wow!! freakin WOW!! In 1971 can you imagine the ladies dancin to this??!! And Charlie.... oh Charlie!! So.. under rated
This song right here is a prime example of why The Rolling Stones have called the Greatest Rock n Roll Band in the World. More so back in the early seventies after the Beatles disbanded.
I HEARD THAT BOSS ! ! !
The saxophone jam always reminds me of the one in Loggins and Messina's "Angry Eyes". Who else agrees?
Reminds me of seeing all the lowriders cruising Fridays and Saturday nights.
I’m one of those old timers who knows the song, but I like to hear it “for the first time” again through your ears and reaction. I like that you heard the same Santana connection that I did. This came out 2 years after Santana blew so many minds with their performance at Woodstock (Soul Sacrifice!). That made me wonder if the Stones had been influenced by Santana. But the Stones were incorporating new sounds and congas by Rocky Dijon since ‘68. Still, it’s just an awesome groove that, like you said, you can listen to now and then, with headphones, or speakers blasting and get lost in the amazing soundscape. Music is a great democratic experience, a coming together of ideas, talents and influences. Always.
Best stones song. They actually jam out.
The solos by Bobby Keys (sax) and Mick Taylor (guitar) are some of the best of any Stones record, and Keith’s rhythms are absolutely stellar!
Charlie Watts is an incredible drummer who plays the best blues rock with real swing
Once they got Mick Taylor in the mix they really went to the next level
Never used to like the ‘Stones. But thanks to all these reactions my music experience has expanded
I've only heard "Ruby Tuesday" about a million times, like "Stairway To Heaven." When radio stations play things to death, you tend to get tired of hearing those songs.
Leave no turn UnStoned.
You can go back to your Bieber. Stones never needed you
@@Micknkeithable It's hard not to love The Stones. They've got so many great songs. I hope they keep rolling forever.
You`ve been missing life partner
Gotta love Bobby Keys.... 🎅
Mr Keys from the Panhandle of Texas.🌟
If you like the middle part, you might like Traffic’s “Low Spark of High Heeled Boys.” Maybe Santana too, like “Black Magic Woman”
"Sympathy for the devil," "Let it bleed," "Bitch," "Honky Tonk Women," "Wild Horses," "Angie," "She's a rainbow," "Mother's Little Helper" are just some Stones songs off the top of my head where the music will also not be denied!
Great list
@@bobrush4217 🎸❤🔥
I listened to "hot rocks" for the first time in a while. What a large collection of great songs
@@Peter-oh3hc Yeah, every time I come back to the Stones, I'm newly gobsmacked at how many great tunes they have! But I don't like ALL of them, or even know all of them. That would be Zeppelin for me, heh.
@@joescott8877 right there with you. Stones are amazing, but zep was the soundtrack of high school
Mick Taylor with the Stones was just Fire. The whole band elevated to a new level. So good……..
Mick Taylor arrived so the Stones had LIFTOFF.
I love the Stones as much as I love The Beatles. This is one of my favorite Stones songs. Keith Richards starts with another of his killer riffs, the rhythm section again is spot on (not very many others could stand up to Charlie Watts and Bill Wyman). If you like the sax solo, Bobby Keys playing is phenomenal and he's graced so many great records, one which instantly comes to mind is "Slunky" by Eric Clapton--Bobby knew exactly how to punctuate a song with a whaling sax solo. And Mick Taylor's guitar solo at the end is one of his greatest solos ever!
R.I.P Bobby Keys
@@williamhopper7873Born in Texas on the same day as his future best friend, Keef.
Those Keith Richards riffs that kick off this track are just nasty.
So bad ass. That tone is pure grit
Keef at his low down and dirty best. Read he played it for Charlie and the drum part wrote itself in real time. Charlie was my favorite Stone by far.
Like a po'd gorilla.
Those riffs on so many songs. That is the one reason I call Keith the G.O.A.T. Peace out.
Keith and his 5 string open B tuning…yeeessssss…
Sleaziest riff ever. I love this song ❤
when i forget where all my favorite bands learned how to be a little dirty and greasy I play this and refresh my memory
There is so much space in this recording. So open. You can hear the silence in there.
That's so important.
Mick Taylor kicking ass on the lead guitar! One of my 3 favorite Stones tunes, along with Sympathy and Monkey Man.
Love Monkey Man...glad I got to see them twice , in their prime!
I'M A MONKAAAAAEY!!!! :)
My three favorites by them too (Heartbreaker is up there as well.)
And midnight rambler
You can always recognize The Stones because of Micks voice, but the most incredible thing about them is they played in all genres. No album sounds like another. The variety of their sound is incredible. This is more a ragged southern hymn style.
The Stones just create VIBES for days like nobody's business. It's not about virtuosity or perfection, it's the best example of the whole being so much greater than the sum of its parts (this is not to take away from any of them as individual artists!) VIBE VIBE VIBE!!! Stones for Ever, awesome reaction as always! 🙌
The tone of that guitar really stands out. Keith Richards was and is special on that instrument.
It was mick taylor on lead guitar
Mick had the killer solo, but that opening dirty riff was all Keith!
The sax is the legendary Bobby Keys!! May he rest in peace! A Texas boy!!
Great reaction analysis man. This is absolutely one of my favorite Stones pieces. Weird, I just realized I have my Stones Tee on!!
As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.
WOW! I forgot how great this song is!!!! Thanks for this reaction!
I seen them play this live under the space needle in Seattle when I was 15
They have sooooo many great songs but this is in the top five rotation depending on mood for their best ever. You need to check out Fleetwood Mac (Peter Green) and Black Magic Woman (they wrote it).
Shades of Traffic and Santana's "Black Magic Woman." Great song. Always loved it.
Please do
'Tumbling Dice' next.
My fave Stones song, don’t ask me why, it’s just soooo coooool
Lawd, top five song for me! I love listening to Mick Taylor’s guitar solo and how that whole jam session builds between Keith’s riff, Mick’s solo, Charlie’s cymbal work and the sax. You can even hear Billy Preston on keys if you listen closely. This album is a killer from beginning to end.
The cymbals are fantastic!
They've got a 20 minute version of "Midnight Rambler" you'd dig. It's absolutely batshit beautiful.
I think the last part of this song is some of the very best music in rock. It just never gets old.
My favorite Stones' song, that jam is great.
Is that Jazz jam a banger or what? Bobby Keys on sax, guitar work of Keith Richards and Mick Taylor, and Billy Preston on organ.
Mick Taylor recalled in a 1979 interview:
"Can't You Hear Me Knocking" ... is one of my favourites ... [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.
The track featured Rocky Dijon on congas; tenor saxophonist Bobby Keys performs an extended saxophone solo over the guitar work of Richards and Mick Taylor, punctuated by the organ work of Billy Preston.
This song makes no sense. You have Jagger's paranoid cocaine lyrics, sung with an intensity that's unique to this song; Keef's epic chords, inverting them purely by instinct, with perfect tone & reminding everyone that it's him who decides the tempo & the groove in that band. It's just pure feel. And it just...ends. And we have, according to Mick Taylor, an unplanned jam, because they wanted to keep playing. With another great groove, with great percussion and a great sax solo by Bobby Keys, Keef's great partner in crime. Mick Taylor drives the finale with perfect taste and exquisite tone while sounding utterly commanding.
It makes no sense, and 50 odd years after first hearing it I still love it, so who cares right?
Yes.
My favorite Stones song.
Saw them at Madison Square Garden in the early 80's...when this song came on you better believe we all jumped up and started moving!
Still got my original Sticky Fingers with the zipper. Love it, thanks! ✌️❤️🤟🥁
Worth helluva lot more now!!
My favorite Stones tune! Close 2nd, Mother's Little Helper ❤
Love watching your reactions! Stay cool my friend!
The best intro in rock and roll, ever. And I'm a Beatles fan.
I totally agree with you and I'm a Led Zeppelin fan myself.
One of my faves from the Stones. Check out the live version of "sympathy for the devil" from the live album "Get Yer Ya Yas Out!! So good, also from the same album "Midnight Rambler" you'll love it.
Love You Live is my favorite live Stones
One of the most awesome 2.5 minute solo ever…..❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great track from a great album. 'Wild Horses' , 'Brown Sugar' and 'Sister Morphine' from that album are also really good.
Keith is great at hook type riffs and his harsh scraping guitar sound....and when the score called for a guitarist with more mastery of the whole scale,.then Mick Taylor was the go to. Together they made great music! And I love Stones songs where Bobby Keys is playing sax.
The guitar riff in the beginning always gets me! Great reaction Polo. Check out Monkey Man by them.
Monkey Man! Yes!
Definitely
My favorite Stones jam. I saw them live in East Germany, prior to the wall 🧱 falling in Berlin.
My favorite band ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The thing I loved about this song is that just when you think it cannot get better, it does!
The best song by the Stones. Glad you covered it. Great reaction.
I'd love to recommend the official live video of "I'm Just Waiting on a Friend", by the Stones. Love it!
This is hands down my favorite Stones song.
one of the groovey-est, balls-out, guitar intros ever and in my top 3!
Hi Polo. I was a major Rolling Stones fan in HS when I was 14 in 1971. My nickname was Stones. I have a box of posters, every book and 70s rock mags all Stones related. This song rocks. Exile On Main Street, Get Yer Ya Yas Out (live album) are 2 of my favs. I love every album prior to Some Girls ❤ Their album Between The Buttons is an early album with great songs too. Music is my oxygen.
Some Girls was the last Great Stones album. I agree completely.
@@nightcitypunk8517 I wasn't a fan of that album. Every album before that, I loved.
This so takes me back to high school. I was never a big Stones fan since age 7, but this is one that I will admit to as one of their best.
YAY!!! LOVE ME SOME STONES!!! Thanks, Polo!! Old Stones or NEWer Stones: I'm IN!!! HUGS!!!
Rolling Stones. The memories I have associated with this band are so tied to the one person I wish I has never met and who I still dream of all the time. Haunts me. Every song. "Miss You".
Your comment floored me...
@@denisemarie2985 Sorry if I offended you. Music is so tied to my emotions. I relate certain songs or certain bands to events in my life. I don't mean to speak so personally.
@@oldsoulsheart by "floored" I meant that it was a really great comment but know its a painful though. i have felt the same way with certain people and associate some songs like you. I apologize that I didn't explain myself better!🙂
Can you imagine having an impromptu jam session in a recording session today?
This is an amazing track and you need to hear the Rolling Stones forays into disco and funk. They go so crazy! Emotional Rescue is so off the charts! EMOTIONAL RESCUE! Get it and get ready!
One of my favorite Rolling Stones tracks of all time, the whole album is Fire, Sticky Fingers is a great one
In 1972 my stoning buddies buddies ad I used to get thoroughly baked (stoned) and trip out to this song. I was never a Rolling Stones fan, but this song, Dead Flowers, Angie and a few others were exceptional.
The stone's have so many great songs and albums, it's virtually impossible to pick a favourite, for me anyway. They morphed from being a great 3 minute singles band, to creating some of the best albums ever recorded.
The Santana vibe in that one section… I was thinking it myself right before you said it 👍
My favorite song from my favorite band. That outro was all Charlie, Mick Taylor & Bobby Keys!
Edit: It ain’t a “cool-down,” Cuz. They fixin to cook! ❤
Bobby Keys on sax. He's unbelieveable. I've always thought he approaches a sax solo like a guitar solo. You can't believe how many tracks he played on with so many other artists. Check out his starting note on John Lennon's "Whatever Gets You Through The Night". That would be a really tough way to start a song.
This is an all time favorite for most Stones fans.
Mick Jagger may not be the best singers but he is one hell of a performer.
No one could argue about that!
He is the only one of his era who’s voice still sounds great 😉
Jagger might not be the best singer technically speaking, but he gets an A+ for attitude and swagger!
He's the best singer for the Stones. I couldn't imagine a cover of any Stones song that would compare...
@@mikeb9569Agree 100%. I can’t imagine Freddie Mercury singing Gimme Shelter or Mick Jagger Singing You’re My Best Friend 😂
This is the Rolling Stones??!!!! My goodness, why couldn't more of their music be like this? This is superb.
There’s a lot more to the Stones than Satisfaction and Jumping Jack Flash :) … some of their best was never played on the radio .
This comment is exactly what I would call an ignorant Stones hater who only knows maybe a few overplayed radio hits and associates them more for their later-day imagery than their prime years. Maybe explore the wide breadth of their incredibly long and diverse oeuvre, especially from the Brian Jones and Mick Taylor eras. The Stones covered far more musical ground than their peers.
Check out Gimme Shelter next... one of the greatest vocal performances in rock history delivered by background singer Merry Clayton....
How could anyone who loves the Blues or the Stones, not love this song. Not a big fan of the saxophone, but sure love that guitar sound. Been a Stones fan since 1966. Always will be and have loved this song since it was released.
The most important person in the making of music is the listener. They don't have to be an expert they can be totally ignorant about music and still be moved by it. I love the fact that you ran it back in a couple of places just because it felt so good.
No apologies needed Polo. It is a pure joy to watch you vibing to The Stones. Always so fun to listen to the reactions of people leaving a Stones concert. such euphoria over a shared experience. I don't believe there exists a better form of human unity than music. This song is an example of them in their prime IMHO. I think you would have loved going to the concerts with us! ☮️ ❤️ 🎶 🎸 🎶
Some of those 60s and 70s blues based rockers were blending some sax into their "three piece ensembles"
Traffic comes to mind
One of my favs!
Love this song one of their best
Sticky Fingers (1971) was during the Stones' most creative period that started in 1967 and ended in 1972, with Exile on Main St. This track is amazing, especially with the jazzy part about halfway into it ... whoever decided to put the whole thing out on the album was inspired. Bobby Keys' sax solo was amazing, then Mick Taylor on guitar.
Another Stones hidden gem is “Melody”. Billy Preston’s keyboards are 🔥
Polo, you just got STONED brother. Great to see you experience it for the first time!
My favorite Stones tune by far.
One of my favorites from the Stone's
My favorite Stones song, Keith Richards on the first guitar solo Mick Taylor on the second what a jam, and Charlie on drums catches the essence of the song
Enjoy your reactions to the songs you review.
funny fact, the original album cover for sticky fingers was band and recalled. it was designed by Andy Warhol and featured a working zipper! record stores everywhere had teenage girls unzipping to see what was behind 🤣🤣 if you were one of the few to have purchased before the were taken off shelves it would be worth a fortune now!
The model was Little Joe, from Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side."
The brother on the bongos is fire. 🔥🔥
Mick Taylor🤯 Sway next please
😃 🙏. To think the whole instrumental part happened organically is amazing; on this one the musicianship really shines! Great reaction; so glad you liked it! The Stones have many different sounds; that’s why they appeal to me so much. If you revisit them, you may want to react to what I call their Disco (a genre which I unashamedly love; the deep stuff, not The Bee Gees light stuff) “MISS YOU”; that baseline…❤
This is one of my favorites of the Rolling Stones and I feel exactly the same way about it as you doing thanks for doing those repeats it’s such a great way to listen to it
7:24 That whole bass part after the sax always blows my mind.
One of their best!.
Thanks
This and Gimme Shelter are probably the two greatest Stones songs to react to. But the Stones have so many great songs, and the variety of music is incredible as they master the blues, country, gospel and other styles of music as well as any rock band in history. Two different songs I highly recommend are She's a Rainbow and Sweet Virginia. If you want to explore the album this one came from in more depth, Moonlight Mile.
Always a joy to see a fellow traveler enjoying something that I put on my "epic" shelf.
I listen to this everyday
Bobby Keys kills the sax solo on this track with the great Billy Preston on the keyboards. As someone else mentioned, this is my favorite Stone's album as well.
