A rock n roll classic. Never gets old.

I love this song, especially Mick Jaggers vocals. He sings with such swag 🤘🏼

Up to this point, the Stones were primarily a rhythm and blues band. This song identified them as the greatest rock and roll band in the world

Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were partying at Keith's country house during a thunderstorm and saw Keith's gardener Jack outside doing something in the yard, so . . . Jumping Jack Flash was born.

A perfect Rock & Roll song. 🔥

My favorite Stones songs are "Tumbling Dice", "Gimme Shelter" and "Brown Sugar". They demand to be heard! 😉

Back when rock and roll music had swing and people could dance to it. It was basically party music. Huge reason why it was so popular. As good as the heavier stuff can be, all one can do is headbang to it. You can’t really ask a girl to dance to a hard rock or heavy metal song.

"Hand of Fate" Under-rated coolest groove ever.

I LOVE this song 💃💃💃

Shattered, Honky Tonk Woman, Respectable are all upbeat jams I think you'll love

This is where/when The Rolling Stones transitioned from legendary pop-rock band to The World’s Greatest Rock n Roll Band. Ground zero. 1968

This particular rabbit hole may go on forever, since they've put out music since the 60s. Particular songs (my personal bias) for the 60s-80s era: 60s: "Let's Spend the Night Together" "Honky Tonk Woman"; 70s: "Dance Little Sister" "Shattered"; 80s: "She's So Cold" "She was Hot" These don't even remotely scratch the surface of their catalog.

Welcome to the Rolling Stones! You will return to them over and over again!

Bill Wyman’s bass drives this song like nothing else.

When I was 14 my buddy and I removed the hinges from a buddies apartment in 2 feet of snow Christmas Eve and opened a bottle of wine that was under the tree. This song was on the turn-table. Marvelous little rapscallions!

Bringing on the maracas! A cowbell 1-2-3-4 and some clapping would have filled that out so friendly! I love the way the Brits interpreted rock and roll and sent it back to America.

the thing with the Stones and especially the Beatles is that they evolved over time - musically the Beatles of 1963 was not the same band as the Beatles of 1970 and the Stones have had several changes in personnel in the past 60 years. personally I always preferred the Stones purely from a rock and roll point of view but the Beatles' song writing skills were on another level and weren't always designed to put you in a party mood. a couple of Beatles songs that you might enjoy (being more upbeat) Day Tripper, Paperback Writer, Get Back, Back in the USSR

I love that you’re going into this era of music so much that I just subscribed to your channel! ROCK IT‼️

There is a movie with Whoopi Goldberg "Jumpin' Jack Flash" from the 80s that is hysterically funny. This song is used in the movie. I'll never forget her being on that dock at 1 am walking around talking to herself. What am I doing here. I might as well put a sign on my back that says "Victim Here". LOL

Welcome friend!!! Lots to explore!!! My kid was asked by his teacher at school to identify 3 gassea. He said, 1) Oxygen; 2) Nitrogen and 3) Jumping Jack Flash

'Jumping Jack Flash' could be a reference to the nursery rhyme "Jack Be Nimble". There are several versions of it. The one I remember is: "Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack jump over the candlestick"

A classic- hell yes!!

I've been treated so bad by life but in the end here I am, it made me stronger, it's a gas, gas, gas

One of my favorites from them. "Rocks Off" and "Brown Sugar" are two other classic rockers by them. For some variety from the Stones, "Sway", "No Expectations" and "Moonlight Mile" are some of their best that you also probably haven't heard.

My favorite Rolling Stones song! Aretha Franklin did a cover version of it in the 80s.

"I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag I was schooled with a strap right across my back" OK so what was Mick on when he wrote this in 1968, must a been good. Great song great beat even the lyrics sync with the beat really well, good stuff..I'm 72 years old and was 18 when this came out on the radio but I still like this song today

Very good commentary... hard not to love the Stones for this tune.

They were in their 20s when they did this. It's a feel good song Gas is old slang for yes, a good time

Brother, there is no G on the end of Jumpin'. You're welcome LOL

The Beatles had lots of songs that make you wanna dance. Two that come to mind are Day Tripper and Paperback Writer.

I have read once that this song was written about a gardner whos name was Jack

The 'crossfire hurricane' in the first verse references the Nazis bombing London AKA The Blitz - both songwriters were born during World War 2.

"I was born in a crossfire hurricane:.He;s describing being born during WW2!

The greatest rock band ever.

I used to listen to Jumping Jack Flash, then Majic Bus by the Who, and finish it off with Itchycoo Park by Small Faces.

“Rabbit Hole”….. The Beatles and The Rolling Stones are the Grand Canyons of Rock N Roll. If you get too close to the edge and fall off you may be gone for a very long time.

If an alien came to earth & asked for a song to explain rock & roll, I’d play them this. 😈

Try Can’t You Hear Me Knocking. Great guitar work.

I saw The Rolling Stones at the Syracuse Carrier Dome in 1989, AWESOME show. This song is a crowd favorite. I consider the Rolling Stones as the second greatest rock band of all time, only behind The Beatles.

You mentioned The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Well I was around "back in the day" and and two songs defined the difference between them in our minds. The Beatles - "I Want To Hold Your Hand" The Stones - "Let's Spend The Night Together". 'Nuff said.

I applaud you Sir. I am thankful to say that I grew up with this and many other classic rock bands in my life. In many incarnations. On radio, vinyl, 8 track and cassette and CD...oh and by the by..laser disc...no matter the delivery system. The music speaks to its own merit. Learn and grow. For you will only grow more scholarly.

Spring-heeled Jack

How can you not like this song? It's raw, unrefined rock n' roll. That guy reminds me a little bit of the actor Forrest Whitaker.

Great review. Can’t imagine rock & roll without the Stones

Great track - The backstory I read was that "Jumpin' Jack" was Keith Richards gardener.....

This was the first song that made me aware of the Stones when I was 8 or 9 - my brother would listen to one of the mega powerful AM stations out of Oklahoma City and I got exposed to some way cool stuff at an early age.

The studio version of J.J.F. is PERFECT!!!!!!!

Try Midnight Rambler from The Stones album Get Your Ya Ya's Out.

I'll throw out the suggestion of Start Me Up by the Stones. Fun reaction...thx!!

Can’t You Hear Me Knockin’? is a must listen.

The Beatles and the Stones were actually very good Friends! Try. She's so Heavy By the Beatles. Then play Heavy Music by Bob Seger! 🇺🇸🇬🇧🍷

The video of this song features mick Jagger with Comanche war paint on his face.

Oh, yes, so much fun, T!!!

If this song makes you happy, then you have not been listening to the lyrics too closely. Jumping Jack Flash was a gardener who told Keith Richards about his difficult childhood but it was all a gas. The Stones were all about the Blues. The Beatles were all about pushing the boundaries. Compare their early songs that were pure pop to later work like Rubber Soul, Revolver and Sgt. Pepper and you will see a very definite evolution. Not so with the Stones. Their style changed very little but the changes that were evident came mostly because of the guitarist next to Richards. Brian Jones was a multi instrumentalist as you can hear in Sympathy For The Devil. Mick Taylor was a gifted guitarist who made all the difference in songs like Angie. Ron Wood is a support player. Since he is there, nothing very new or exciting has come from Jagger/Richards.

Newly subscribed ! as for the Stones, how about "Can't you hear me Knocking" 😃

im not much of a beatles fan but the Stones rock!! The stones are so cool.

Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack jump over The candlestick... Jumping Jack Flash

This is about overcoming huge obstacles and being better for it.

Tom Petty said he thought this song was the greatest rock song ever done and I agree!

Check out the Rock and Roll Circus live version on video!!

The lead singer has the moves like Jagger

Some say that The Stones are the greatest of all time. Certainly the longest running band.

Check out The Rolling Stones “Hey Negrita” with legendary keyboardist Billy Preston. Billy Preston played keyboards for Rolling Stones and the Beatles! Not to mention his own acclaimed solo career. The Stones at their funkiest… watch their official Promo video from 1976: Hey Negrita: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r8dzjNJ0prW-kn0.html

The bass line is killer. It’s only rock and roll but I like it like it

❤❤

If you haven't yet, l would recommend listening to The Who's 60's output.

Maybe check their song “mothers little helper” or Beatles “paperback writer”

The stones are the reason I don't have any Beatles albums the Stones can start an earthquake

Jumping Jack Flash was actually based on a guy Mick Jagger knew. He was a hyperactive dude, always bouncing around. The whole song is just made up stuff they imagined about the guy's life.

He was abused as a kid but he got over it and now he's going to have fun, that's what the song is about.

One of their best. You have to explore CCR, Steppenwolf, Jethro Tull, The Yardbirds, The Who, and The Animals.

The leanest meanest guitar riff I've ever heard.

It's a gas...it's really good. You were right on.

you should try gimme shelter next

My fave version of this ditty is by Thelma Houston 🤔🎶🤩🙌👍

Comment for the algorithm

Jagger/Richards....Lennon/McCartney....Jeff Lynne. Best of British ➡️🇬🇧👍

Street Fighting Man

Ya like lyrics? ...check out 'Paint it Black'. Rock n' roll with melancholy.

Try 'Start Me Up' next. Oh yeah!

Find a concert version of Midnight Rambler

I have been a rock and roll gal since the late 60's through 80's. I may get a few nasty comments, but I would rather listen to The Stones over the Beatles. I will enjoy your reactions to the 60's music! Let's ROCK!

I think Jumping Jack Flash is a mischief-making speite in traditional English lore. At times malevolent.

1. ANGIE 2. JUMPING JACK FLASH.

Check out the Blue and Lonesome CD, their version of the blues songs that influenced them. Hate to see You Go is exceptionally done

Check out Johnny Winter’s live version. Takes the song to the next level

Ten other killer Rolling Stones songs Ruby Tuesday Can't You Hear me Knocking Under My Thumb Monkey Man Miss You Waiting On A Friend Happy Rocks Off Brown Sugar Moonlight Mile

Nex time " miss You"

They just remastered the original video for this song, 4k. Famous video, w/ Jagger in war paint and singing a live vocal over the original backing track: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/icWga5SLlc_YhaM.html Pretty wicked video for the time, definitely an end to psychedelic experiments of Satanic Majesties.

try ventilator blues by the stones

Definitely proto-metal vibes on this track!!

Great reaction ,if ya want to hear something different from the Stones listen to" Sing This All Together"🎶🎶

This is great. But please check out the YT video of Aretha doing this. She plays piano while singing and Keith Richards accompanies her on guitar. This was the video they did for the movie Jumping Jack Flash. Whoopi is also in the video and she starred in the movie. It is classic.

How strong an influence are the Stones on culture? The investigation into links between election and russia was code named crossfire hurricane. Opening lyric: i was born in a crossfire hurricane. Or what jagger says in live performance before the coke in his vocal chords settles down: isa bo inna crossfi huricay.

1965-66, they changed the genre because they wanted to base their music on the black blues wizards they appreciated and mimicked!

Video to it

You wanna dance to a Stones song ? Try “Dance Part 1 and 2” from about 1980…The title says it ll.

Listen to Gimme Shelter.

This song was meant to be a sharp contrast to their previous album...which is also just awesome...Anyone people wanted the Stones to go back to stong rock roll and jack flash is jumping to try and get over (like a fence or something) the prior period in their history.... In the end though the song is so damn good who cares...but I love the lyrics...You have not even touched the surface on the Stunning Stones....over 500 songs and most of them are damn good
