The line “I was trembling as I put on my jacket, it had creases as sharp as a knife” from “Dear Doctor” is so damn good. It foreshadows that the bride had ran off with his cousin. Fantastic songwriting there from Mick.

Great review! You got dressed up appropriately and seemed to know what you’re talking about. Beggars Banquet was a breath of fresh air. The World’s Greatest Rock And Roll Band proved they were not exactly the world’s greatest psychedelic band a year before, as you recall. The scene in Almost Famous was appropriate! At the end of the Beggars Banquet promotion parties, the Stones took turns throwing custard pies in each others’ faces. Rock And Roll Circus was fun in a debauchery way. You hit the nail right on the head when you said the Who stole the show! One person summed it up “The Stones inviting the Who to the Rock And Roll Circus was like a guy introducing his girlfriend to his best friend who happens to be handsomer!” LOL I had reviewed this album on Facebook. I said Brian’s Jack of all trades role wasn’t as called for. Though he wasn’t reliable in the studio, he did manage to play on most of the tracks.

Thank you for doing this. I bought mine when I was 15, took it to college, have played it thousands of times, and somehow, over 40 years later, it still plays with very few pops, let alone scratches. When people talk about great Stones records, they leave this one out a lot, but to me their greatest records obviously start here. It’s a modern record: could be released today and be current. Pure psychedelia was an end to itself, ‘60s Pop died off, but this echoes to this day.

In 1975 Donald Cammell, the English producer of Performance (movie with Anita and Mick), sat in my comfy chair and waved off cheap wine and skunkweed. He was a rich English dude and what-the-heck was he doing in my apartment? I had some incomprehensible visitors, including Angela Bowie, Iggy Pop, Keith Relf and others. I had charisma and looks and zero musical focus and I could play guitar pretty well. I was too damaged to write songs that I could articulate. Donald realized that I didn't "have the goods". At 70, 106 pounds I have the goods and the looks are in my heart. Well I can see that you're 47 years old, I know you're no tear-eyed honey...(Stray Cat Blues rewrite). My guitar playing has progressed throughout the decades as well as songwriting and singing and I do a wicked good Mick impersonation. There are about a hundred Stones songs in my repertoire and my fave changes from hour to hour.

Thank you for acknowledging that The Who's version of "A Quick One" from Rock & Roll Circus is their best version of the song; it's a masterpiece in that form. (Although I can't really see how The Who could have overshadowed the Stones THAT much, since they only performed ONE song and the Stones performed a handful.) I loved your "from 1 to Bob Dylan" scale on characters in a song; I'm going to have to borrow that occasionally. I also loved your "earthy, EARTHLY delight", since both terms apply to Beggars' Banquet. A tiny English lesson: "exasperated" would apply more to the other band members' frustration with Brian Jones' behavior, whereas "exacerbated" is what the drugs did to Brian's bad behavior. I only mention this because I believe you've switched the terms in a previous video (don't remember which). "Salt of the Earth" really comes alive at the end when Charlie hits the tom-toms, the slide goes up, the piano really kicks in, and the song coasts beautifully to the end. (It's at 3:30 on the "Rock & Roll Circus" version of the song, which probably means 3:20 or so on the album.) You're right that Jimmy Miller is the MVP here. Interesting that he produced Traffic, Spooky Tooth (didn't know he did that group, though I should have), and the Stones superbly, but couldn't really bring that magic to Blind Faith's one and only album (though I still enjoy the record). I didn't know that The Mamas & The Papas went through a similar issue with a controversial album cover! I almost always learn at least one thing I didn't know before by watching your videos. Thanks!

I think it may have been Lester Bangs who said the guitar solo on Iggy & The Stooges' I'm Sick Of You was "the most neurologically damaging guitar solo of all time," but Keith's turn in Sympathy runs a very close second. As an 11 year-old kid away at overnight camp for the first time in the summer of 1974, when my bunk counselor put on Sympathy (he brought his stereo with him to camp because that was.. yunno... what you did back then), it was the first life-altering rock and roll moment I ever experienced. After that, nothing was the same. My parents let me go - alone! - to see them the next year when the played in Philly because their thought was, hey, it's just a concert, what's the worst that could happen? The soundtrack to my adolescence and beyond.

Ahhhhh Beggars Banquet. When Brian started to fade and Jimmy Miller helped the Stones come out of the psychedelic era. It's a great album by any yardstick.....but it suffers (by default) from Sticky Fingers, Exile.....and to some extent......by Get Yer Yayas Out. But come on....when an album starts with the still-sounds-demonic "Sympathy for the Devil" and closing with the symphonic-for-the-Devil "Salt of the Earth" Beggars easily still lives up to its legend. Fave deep cuts: "Jigsaw Puzzle"; "Stray Cat Blues" and "Factory Girl." If the Beatles made a single-disc version of the harder/darker songs from the White Album it would have been Beggars Banquet. It's a top five Stones album.....and among the greatest rock albums of all time. Great video once again

One of my top 3 Rolling Stones albums. It does define the band at one of their most political best and progression of their song writing. The acoustic and electric tracks are strong, consistent materials and some of them are underrated. Excellent stuff Abby for a classic.

When I first bought and heard this album, it was in a pre-recorded cassette format. For some reason, side one of the tape was made up of the vinyl album's side 2 and side 2 was side one from the album! Which means that the beginning of my copy of 'Beggars Banquet' started with 'Street Fighting Man'.('Parachute Woman' was also re-sequenced; it now was placed after 'Salt Of The Earth' at the end of "side 1") So 'Sympathy For The Devil' was a track I learned to associate with the second side of the album. I didn't get to hear the original vinyl order of this record until many, many, many years later. Even today, it's too weird for me to listen to this album unless I can hear it in its 1968 cassette version!

I have the same exact experience but with other albums on cassette, most notably Led Zeppelin 1, The Dead's Anthem of The Sun, and several Beatles albums. Growing up listening to those albums on tape, Zeppelin 1 (for example )was sequenced to begin with Your Time is Gonna Come and end with Dazed and Confused, so when CDs came out & then reissued vinyl came out, I was appalled at the reverse song order! To this day I still switch playing sides with that and those other classic albums. However, my cassette copy of Beggar's Banquet never resequenced the songs, so it's how the vinyl/CDs are; but I'm glad to know I'm not the only one this has happened to!

Your review provides a fantastic overview of one of the finest works by The Stones. Your articulate expression of opinions on the album is amazing. I concur that the inclusion of "Jumping Jack" and "Child of the Moon" could have enhanced its brilliance, reminiscent of how "Strawberry Fields" and "Penny Lane" would have fit well on The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper. The adept touch of Jimmy Miller in blending blues, folk, R&B, and contemporary trends is noteworthy. Your well-researched information, drawn from magazine interviews circa the album's release, adds depth to your discussion. Big up!

I think the first Stones song I learned was Get Off My Cloud. I played so many of them and had access to all the albums up through Goats Head, but I only own two now. One is Beggars Banquet and the other is Exile On Main Street. It's interesting you mention Beggars as an end to the era of psychedelic psyli-ness and pseudointellectual psnobbery. Brian wanted a blues band and there's a lot of that in Beggars. It's too bad he was left in the dust as the jet set flew away. Perhaps a foreshadowing is found in Paint It Black. From Aftermath onward the Stones seemed to be trading with The Beatles--album for album, theme for theme. Love and death. And the pain that only goes away when you play the blues. My favorite line from No Expectations is "Our love was like our music; it's here and then, it's gone." I've always related to that with live music versus a recording. On a side note, why does nobody mention that Paint It Black is a ghost story very much like Wuthering Heights? In the last verse he sings "If I look hard enough into the setting sun, my love will laugh with me before the morning comes." So I guess a favorite Stones song is Shine A Light. I think that rounds out the theme. Of course it is like being asked who my favorite guitar player is. I can't give an honest answer. There is no answer to that question for me. So I really don't have a favorite Stones song. It all depends on my mood at the time, and the answer will change from day to day. So glad I found you. Any gal who like Beggars Banquet is my kinda woman. Looking forward to your next album chat. (Hint: Led Zep Physical Graffiti.)

So very much stoked for the next album you'll be reviewing. My absolute favorite DB album. EVERY track has something to like/love about it. I don’t know how many times I can say it but you just keep getting better with every album review. Love your deep dives into all of them. You've finally made me want to take out and play my Rock and Roll circus CD (I don’t think I've heard it since the day I bought it). Not sure if it has ever emerged on vinyl.

Love this. I think of Beggars as the beginning of the greatest run of 4 albums by any group, ever. Beggars, Let It Bleed, Sticky Fingers, Exile. I love how your channel is growing. Consider trying a teleprompter at some point. You can control it with a game controller using an iPad, and it will keep you from looking off camera to check notes.

Make no mistake, warts and all, Brian Jones is the true Rolling Stone. Keith may have become that around the time of this album, but Brian’s swagger, style, musical taste, musical range, excess, ego and self destruction set the tempo that still cooks to this day. Sad he died, but nobody can take away his core value to the Stones and rock n roll. Long love the Brian Jones Blues Band

I admire and respect both Keith and Mick. Great songwriters, performers and rock n roll stars. This narrative of Brian having no talent to write songs is a silly one. There are plenty of great artists who didn’t write songs but their contribution to the band and music was vital. And I would argue that while Brian didn’t write “lyrics”, I’ll bet dollars to donuts that he created the musical arrangements for several songs. Why do I think that? 1- especially between 66-67, the Stones moved into a baroque, works, psychedelic space that only thrived on Jones breadth of instruments and musical theory. I have no doubt that as Jagger came with some lyrics to a song and they sat around, Jones would take the lead in putting the accompanying musical arrangement together. See Ruby Tuesday for example where several say Brian wrote the music 2- Andrew despised Brian and did everything possible to make mick and Keith the core of the band, including songwriting. With a manager that set, it’s very easy from him to take the music created and then publish everything as Jagger Richards. It’s an old truck by managers and labels. Think about all those great r&b songs being written by guys like Hesh in the sopranos. Oldham was a shark and his key contribution to the stones was passing that quality onto mick and Keith. 3- Jones never protested (that we knew of) because of a combination I believe of not giving a crap as an artist, being naive and maybe to facked up. Maybe he was also dissapointed that the mates he started with were doing the dirty on him like that when they knew full well the value he brought to the songs. 4- mick and Keith did this a few years later to mick Taylor as well on many songs. Some of which Keith had nothing to do with. 5- all three of the Jones/Taylor and wood eras see none of them getting any song writer credit in the Stones. Why is that? You think mick and Keith have anything to do with it? Remember Brian wrote an entire musical film score. Mick Taylor has wrote several songs and Ron Wood has done the same on his own solo records plus for the Faces and with Rod Stewart 6- then we have artists like gene Clark of the Byrds saying he wrote eight mikes high with Brian jones. But when he told Brian about getting a co credit he said don’t worry bout it My point, it’s a silly narrative because the evidence doesn’t support it and he isn’t here to defend himself against such slander kzfaq.infoP-Xn0cbP1Bk?si=hQ7NCPdit3nH5wBd​@@user-dv3fi7zs3t

Thanks Abi, another brilliant review of a brilliant album. At a eco-festival this year in the U.K. called The Green Gathering I DJ between bands each evening & just before a folk band a young guy came over to say he loved the tunes I played on vinyl 45's but did I have any Rolling Stones, I knew "Jumping Jack Flash" (which he preferred) would be too much so gave him "You Can't always get what you want" as an alternative & message.
