The second half of this was an unplanned, spontaneous jam, captured as they played it. They had finished the “main” part of the song and most of the musicians put down their instruments, but Mick Taylor (on guitar), Charlie Watts (drums) and Rocky (percussion) kept going with a totally different groove. Everyone else joined in, and fortunately the control room kept the tape rolling. Amazing

The Stones were at their very best when Mick Taylor was on lead guitar.

This is the Mick Taylor era. Lot's of folks think he was their best guitarist. The look on your faces was priceless. I've seen them live 6 times. Even brought my teenage (at the time) daughter. Always a blast. Thanks for the reaction.

Keith Richard's hard riff, the late Bobby Keys, from Texas, on sax, and Mick Taylor on lead guitar. This was my favorite incarnation of the Stones. Mick Taylor could take them to another level. I suggest Sister Morphine, from the same album, originally written for and sung by Mick's girlfriend at the time Marianne Faithful. Ry Crowder played a wicked slide guitar on the Stones version of 5hise song.

The opening guitar riff is one of the greatest in the history of rock'n'roll.

So many styles that these guys mastered, and always dripping in style when they were doing it. Lyrically 'Sympathy For The Devil' is one of the greatest songs in rock.

Favorite Stones song-- that outro jam is stratospheric....

Sympathy for the Devil, Gimme Shelter, Monkey Man, Heartbreaker, Satisfaction, Can't Always Get What You Want...tons more...the Stones have a huge catalog. Albums- Sticky Fingers (had a functioning zipper on the original LP covers from 1971) & Exile on Main Street are some good ones.

Charlie Watts was an amazing drummer. He lays down a vibe with his patterns that is perfect for the Stones.

You guys want a deep cut, you say? Try "Moonlight Mile" from this same album. Completely different feel from what you just heard, they're a highly diverse group.

Bobby Keys on sax, Rocky Dijon on percussion, Billy Preston on organ, and Mick Taylor on lead had just joined the Stones after the death of Brian Jones. (The jam at the end) just happened because it was never planned. At the end of the song Taylor just felt like carrying on playing, and everyone just jumped back in and kept the jam session going. Just flowing with the groove. Now that's Rock & roll, and why The Rolling Stone's are so Iconic. Great choice guys. Give "Bitch' or 'Monkey Man' a listen.

'Paint it black' was my Dads favorite song. Thumping, melodic, heavy and mournful.

Albums......Sticky Fingers, Exile on Main Street, Goats Head Soup, Tattoo You, Get yer Ya Yas out {live}, Black and Blue, Emotional Rescue, and about 30 others. No matter what kind of music you want, the Stones did it at one point or another.

Mick is a shaman. He will mesmerize you right along with the music. They have so many vibes, this will be a fun ride. Edit - their deep cuts are as strong as the hits, there are no bad ones

you have the Album right in front of you Sticky Fingers Brown Sugar Sway Wild Horses Can't You Hear Me Knocking You Gotta Move Bitch I Got The Blues Sister Morphine Dead Flowers Moonlight Mile GREAT ALBUM thanks

Stay away from their shallow hits, because these guys had the deepest cuts. Personally, I loved the album Exile On Main Street.

5.23.23. Mick Taylor on Lead Guitar 🎸 my favorite years of Stones discography📀

This was Keith and Mick's nod to Carlos Santana. Mick Taylor definitely captured the flavor in his solo. You MUST make your way to Sympathy for the Devil!

Dudes you did it again. Jump right in the rabbit hole! Loved the Reaction all the way over here in Britain 🎉🎂🍾🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Very deep rabbit hole. One of the godfathers of rock.

Those opening guitar rifts are CLASSIC. 🔥🔥🔥

For me, the best single element on this song is Charlie Watts’ driving beat. Superb.

Six decades later and this sounds as good as it did 'back in the day'. The Rolling Stones aren't just a Band. They are an Institution of musical History. I wonder what Band, Singer from TODAY will still be popular in the next 60 years?! This took a turn from Rock+Roll into a NEW vibe. Love it and love your enthusiasm. 👍🏻🤘

Keith Richards and his riffs….he plays to benefit of the song and he blends it seamlessly. The more you listen to the Stones the more his genius stands out.

Favorite Stones song…….

From '68 to '72 they were at their peak for me, every song! Don't miss Love In Vain and Midnight Rambler from Get Yer Ya Yas Out. Full album, go for Exile On Main Street.

🤘 "Let It Bleed"🤘 my favorite Stones album Favorite song "Gimme Shelter"

What a great song to be y'all's introduction to the Stones. Mick Taylor on guitar and Bobby Keyes on sax. This truly is a classic rock song.

It's hard to beat this song to get introduced to the Stones. It's my favorite of theirs. The groove is undeniable. The way the band just keeps going is so cool.

The whole ending jam session was unintended consequence of leaving a recording machine on while the band just went into a jam session true story

Many people consider this among the albums made during the era of their peak creative input/output. Let it Bleed, Exile on Main Street, It's only Rock and Roll among the many others from '67-'77.

There's a reason that they're called "The Greatest Rock n Roll Band In The World" .!!!

Of all the Stones albums- THIS is my favorite- (followed very closely by "Exile on Main Street") and this is my favorite cut off of it.

One of my faves by the Stones! Check out "19th Nervous Breakdown," "Get Off My Cloud" or "Mother's Little Helper." Whatever you react to by the Stones will be fun.

The Stones are THAT band in history.

In one of rock’s great coincidences, Keith Richards and the saxophonist, Bobby Keyes, were both born on the exact same day, thousands of miles apart.

Great song from a great album, Sticky Fingers. Mick Taylor on lead guitar. Bobby Keys on sax. "Time Waits For No One" is another one you'd like. The Stones have a HUGE music catalog; glad you're checking them out. Hope you also check out some of their other albums like Beggars Banquet and Let it Bleed.

Gimme shelter is probably the next song. Then maybe Tumblin' dice. They had four albums in a row that are widely considered their best. Beggars banquet, Let it bleed, Sticky fingers and Exile on main st. Exile is my favorite. Some girls is also a classic album.

This was an awesome choice for your introduction to the Stones. I could see your minds being blown as the song progressed. Another underplayed Rolling Stones song that you will enjoy is "Monkey Man". Thanks for your reactions, you two are doing a great job.

This album and Exile are as good as it gets with the stones. As said Mick Taylor took them to another level

What's amazing about this song is the whole last half of this song. That it was all improvised when Mick Taylor kept playing through the end and the other members picked up and jammed the whole ending. Kudos to Mick Taylor.

Martin Scorsese used this song in the movie The Departed. He has used them for other projects as well.

The whole Exile On Main St. album is an experience.

You guys started at the top! So nice to see you digging my fave!!! Carry on!

The older I get (currently 71) the more I appreciate the Stones. Been listening to them since I was 13 and loved every minute. That opening riff… DAMN!

"Intro to the RS" true, and it never got better.

You've got 60 years of wonderful catchup to come.

My favorite song from my favorite band. Thank you! And RIP Bobby Keys on the sax.

my favorite stones song ...

5.23.23. Top tier Jam©️……I believe it’s Bobby Keys on Sax 🎷 Look him up, Legendary™️

Old Stones is the best Stones. IMHO, their best album was Some Girls. Love this song ❤❤

You guys are phenomenal. Love the way you review music. Your content is filled with the world's finest Art and your experience to it. Little commentary is the way to do it. Music simply captures a feeling. Sometimes words aren't even necessary. As you can "see" the music

Love this funky hard core Stones tune 🎶 This is a great album and each one of their songs are different. I am so happy to see you reacting to them and your comments about Mick's dancing cracked me up (Jagger does have the moves☺)

Ahh the Mick Taylor years some of the greatest rock ever played and performed 🔥🔥🔥🎸🎸🎸👏👏👏👌😎

I have always loved this track over all Stones tracks. That grimy opening riff then it morphs into such a jazzy jam.

Oh you guys are in for a TREAT with the Rolling Stones. So many tasty tasty songs. Monkey Man, Gimme Shelter, Tumbling Dice, Sister Morphine, Moonlight Mile, Time Waits for No One, all of Exile on Main Street (double album). Enjoy!

Greatness. This album, ‘Sticky Fingers’, is a great one for you to do. ‘Exile On Main St’ though, may be their best. It’s a double album, recorded mostly in Keith Richards’ basement, that covers many styles, and shows them at their comfortable best. Jagger and Richards challenged each other to come up with a new idea every night for the band to work on. It gets you slowly and doesn’t let go. It’s the album I always come back to, but there was a 5-year, 4 album streak the Stones had from 1968-‘72 (‘Beggars Banquet’, ‘Let It Bleed’, ‘Sticky Fingers’, and ‘Exile On Main St’), that may be the greatest streak in history. The Beatles broke up, and the Stones hit their peak. Amazing.

They've got an oceanic catalog for sure, but you couldn't have picked a better song to show them at the height of their powers. Serendipitous 😁

Love the attitude in the Stones music! A-TTI-TUDE!

Stones at their best, and these guys also did the best country music ever on their Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed and others. Thanks guys, for getting the word out to a new audience!

You want an album, you have it right in front of you. That Sticky Fingers album takes the Stones though rock, country, blues, ballads and the jam you just heard. Do the rest of this album and you won't be sorry! Keep up the great work, you guys are the best.

As far as lead guitar goes, I think the Mick Taylor years were the best - but he was featured more frequently in his previous band when he was playing with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers.

My favorite songs are: "2000 Light-years from Home", "Honky Tonk Women", "Miss Amanda Jones", "Have You Seen Your Mother Baby", and "Let's Spend the Night Together". Also anything from "Exile on Main Street", "Beggar's Banquet", and "Let It Bleed".

This is my favorite Stones song. Got it all baby.

That opening guitar riff with the fuzz effect by Keith Richards, The best in rock history. Sometimes the simple ones are the best. Look at early Beatles. That guitar solo after the sax was Mick Taylor. underrated.

Everything from the greatest four-album sequence in Rock history -- Beggar's Banquet, Let It Bleed, Sticky Fingers, and Exile on Main Street -- is worth listening to again and again. You'll get a lot of recommendations for songs like Gimme Shelter, but don't miss songs like Dead Flowers or Far Away Eyes (from Some Girls).

Of one the greatest most iconic riffs ever! This song is about, literally, showing up at your dealers house unannounced. Sticky fingers is one of the greatest albums of all time.

I've literally been waiting for you guys to dig into the stones ; ) this song in particular! Wicked reaction!

I'm 66 and shoot pool in the local college bars with my like aged buddies. I always have $10 budgeted for music when we play. I play what I consider 'pool bar songs'. A lot of them. This is one of the songs that open the set. I always check out the kids to see if they are grooving to the music. They do. Good to see young people appreciate great rock and roll still.

Great reaction guys! You’ve already started their best album in my humble opinion. Every song is worth a reaction

I'm 67 and love these 1st reactions. It's priceless. I saw them in San Diego when I was in the 10th grade. They played this song of course. I can tell ya what he was doing on stage. Lol

My favorite Stones tune

Midnight rambler 👍

IMO 1 of the greatest albums of all time. Not 1 bad song.

This album is my favorite.

"the tango, he was doin' the tango". I effin' love it!!! lol You guys are great.

Remember the Stones had an extremely long career. Early 60s r 'n' b Stones is different to mid sixties pop era Stones is different to early seventies hard rock Stones. This is probably the most extended instrumental jam they ever did, so not altogether typical. Golden era was the three consecutive albums Let It Bleed, Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main Street ( in my opinion ! )

The Greatest Rock N Roll band ever!!!! Guys .... I know the catalogue is long but if you want to hear the best of the best, start from Beggars Banquet 68' until Exile on Main Street 72' ... these the were the best years of the Stones with ...Beggars, Let it Bleed, Sticky Fingers, and then Exile.... 4 epic albums back to back... thanks guys enjoy the Stones!!!

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!One of the greatest of all time!!!!!!!!You got so much to hear,,,,,,

I’ve been listening to the Stones since the early 60’s. There are so many great songs but, this I one of my favorites. I enjoy it as much today as when I first came out.

Welcome to the Stones!

One of the greatest guitar riff Intros in rock and roll.. and Mick was the greatest frontman of all time.. no question about it 💯

You guys make the best reaction vids. You're the coolest. Cheers!

WOW. It is a good introduction.

My favourite Stones Album, Exile next choice - Mick Taylor the 💣 bomb

My dad said the Rolling Stones best period was when Mick Taylor was in the group. He said one-off of the most underrated guitarists along with Rory Gallagher

You guys are absolutely one of my favorites! I love your focus on the drums often. It's fun to rock with you gentlemen.

The coolest Stones song ever! Enjoy the rest of the tour!

listen to Monkey Man... I was turned on to that from the movie Goodfellas, near the end when the police helicopter was following Henry Hill

BTW- the Stones album "Their Satanic Majesties Request" was partially produced (the only good tune on the album - "She's a Rainbow") by JPJ - Yeah, him, John Paul Jones before he was in Led Zepplin. Afterwards they were looking for a new full time producer and decided on Jimmy Miller (who produced this album) who was recomennded by Glyn Johns, Led Zeppelin's producer. Mick Taylor- who replaced Brain Jones on guitar was in John Mayalls Bluesbreakers. Which at times also included Eric Clapton and Peter Green, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie- who actually started Fleetwood Mac. Mick Taylor was replaced by Ron Wood who was in the band The Small Faces with Rod Stewart. British musicians are very incestual lol.

Your eyes when Mick stars singing! Priceless!

This is a rabbit hole that will take you all the way to Australia. I’d love you to do the studio version of Midnight Rambler, right up your street I reckon

Exile on Main St. Great doubled album 1972

The entire album is a banger - one of their absolute best.

This was a joy to listen to and an even bigger joy to see you both blown away. Can’t think of a bad Stones song. Sympathy For The Devil might be one you’ve heard in the background of your lives but it’s iconic with great lyrics.

La and Che, welcome to the Rolling Stones. What a spectacular, rich introduction. They are masters of Blues influenced Rock. stared by covering blues songs: Brits, reminding Americans or their musical roots. From the beginning they were masters of style, changing in unexpected and delightful ways, for a song or an album. Through it all runs stupendous lead guitar, masterful performance, and Mick Jagger's taunting vocals and bad-boy persona. Great, classic rock. Yes, you are right that there is a lot of the Stones that you don't hear anymore, because today their ideas and lyrics are triggering. I think that today "Brown Sugar" would end a career. There are so many hits and deep tracks to explore. I recommend You Can't Always Get What You Want: Mick Jagger chiding self-centered hippies--and Jimi Hendrix!--with sharp lyrics, rock, and a church choir. Thanks for having me along., Peace.

Many prefer Exile on Main Street, but this (Sticky Fingers) for me was their best. Every track is excellent and varied. The entire album is worth a listen. This is my favorite song of theirs. You picked one of the very best to start with. Mick Taylor in your left ear and Keith in your right during the solos.

You can just take every song from Exile on Main Street in order. 😂

Great reaction! The saxophonist is indeed from Texas. Lubbock, Texas home of Buddy Holly.

I was in NYC hanging out in Times Sq.with my then wife , her first time there. I said let's go down to 48th street to check out the music stores. We were across the street form Manny's and noticed 2 limos parked in front. Told my wife , "let's go inside - we may run into someone famous". Just as we got there out walks Mick Jagger with his security, but he was nice enuff to stop and say hello for a few minutes. Needless to say, my wife was very impressed with my timing lol.
