Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 58/500!
Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Songs of All Time - "Street Fighting Man" - Rated 301/500!
From 1968, one of the most innovative albums of the Sixties features the regular songs at Stones concert such as "Sympathy For The Devil" and "Street Fighting Man", and the beautiful melodies such as "No Expectations" and "Salt Of The Earth". Many Stones fans say it's their favorite! The introduction of producer Jimmy Miller refocused the band with enthralling results returning to their blues roots albeit in a radical new way.
The last album recorded by the original band, Beggar's Banquet marks the beginning of the Stones invincibility and the end of Brian Jones.
"When we had been in the States between 1964 and '66, I had gathered together this enormous collection of records, but I never had any time to listen to them," Keith Richards recalled. "In late 1966 and '67 I unwrapped them and actually played them." After the failed psychedelia of Their Satanic Majesties Request, and with guitarist Brian Jones largely AWOL, Richards' record collection led the Rolling Stones back to their version of America: country music on "Dear Doctor," the blues on "Prodigal Son" and urban riots on "Street Fighting Man." And "Sympathy for the Devil," of course, is an anthem for the darkness in every human heart." - rollingstone
"The Stones' most political song [Street Fighting Man] came about after Jagger went to a March 1968 anti-war rally at London's U.S. embassy, with mounted police wading into a crowd of 25,000. The distorted drone was built on acoustic guitars pumped through a mono cassette recorder." - Rolling Stone
