    One of my favorite songs from the era... And one of the best that bashed through 1966, went on a lyrical and musical rampage, got in your face and screamed, "I HAVE ARRIVED!!!". Even now, it's still going strong and still riding that wave of epicness of power.

    From the moment I first heard it, "Paint It Black" has been my favorite song. The incredible driving beat grabs me physically and won't let go. I think it marks the high water mark of the Stones. According to Wikipedia, this song (along with The Beatles' "Norwegian Wood") is catalogued as Progressive Pop. You know that "zoom-zoom" bass effect during the last minute of the song? Wyman says he created that in the RCA studio there in L.A. by getting on his hands and knees underneath the organ and working the foot pedals. Wyman credits Dave Hassinger, the recording engineer on the "Aftermath" album, with encouraging the Stones to get creative with instrumentals. The Stones loved recording at the RCA studio because there was no clock on the wall and they were given all the time they needed to get the sound they wanted.

    Loved the Jewish wedding reference! My band at the time was playing a party for some older folks with a Middle Eastern/Israeli background, we described the gig as Us and a "Belly Dance Band", they were that authentic! Anyway, we opened with Paint It Black, we loved the song and it was current. During the interval, an aged woman came up to me and asked "Can you play that nice Jewish song again?' Of course we did but it really speaks to the multi culturalism of the song and the music of the times even if we, and the Stones, didn't recognize it at the time. Thanks for the vid!

    Check out the interview of Wenner from Rolling stones with Mick Jagger in 1995: That was a big landmark record for me. It’s the first time we wrote the whole record and finally laid to rest the ghost of having to do these very nice and interesting, no doubt, but still cover versions of old R&B songs - which we didn’t really feel we were doing justice, to be perfectly honest, particularly because we didn’t have the maturity. Plus, everyone was doing it. [Aftermath] has a very wide spectrum of music styles: “Paint It, Black” was this kind of Turkish song; and there were also very bluesy things like “Goin’ Home”; and I remember some sort of ballads on there. It had a lot of good songs, it had a lot of different styles, and it was very well recorded. So it was, to my mind, a real marker.

    I thought it was George Harrison who was in the studio and who handed a sitar to Brian Jones and he started playing with it and came up with the riff, then Bill and Charlie joined in and that was how the music for Mick's words came about. Brian didn't know how to play sitar, but the man was a musical genius who could figure out how to play and instruments in a day if not hours. Brian was able to play 31 instruments by the time he died.

    Paint It Black was a great song and of course they were influenced by The Beatles use of the sitar. Of all the world music instruments it was not a random choice and The Stones know it I must admit though that Brian Jones was a better more natural sitar player than Harrison but none the less the sitar became very fashionable in the mid 60s.

    I’m a big Stones fan and a stickler for facts. This was well done. You made one minor mistake. Their manager Eric Easton had left in 1965. It was Bill Wyman who was imitating Eric Easton, who used to be an organ player, by hitting he organ pedals with his fists, I believe, but Eric Easton had nothing to do with the recording of the song. It’s good to point out the quote by Keith mentioning how the sitar was an experiment in the song. The quote by Brian Jones as saying it was “rubbish” about copying the Beatles for playing a sitar, which they were criticized for, was good as well. I mean an Indian sitar was one of many instruments Brian Jones played on Stones records in the 1960s.

    The use of the sitar by the Stones was a naked attempt to keep up with the trends as laid down by the Beatles and the Yardbirds. It was no coincidence that two of the UK's top pop bands just decided to pick up a classical Hindustani instrument within a few months of each other. The only one full of "rubbish" was Jones.

    @@williardbillmore5713 I couldn't disagree more. Brian Jones playing the sitar is more complex than him playing it just because the Beatles used one. So in other words the Stones were willing to put a sitar in a song even if it didn't sound right for the song just because the Beatles used one? I disagree. If Brian Jones thought the sitar was the most dreadful-sounding instrument he ever heard, he would have never played one regardless if the Beatles used one or not. Keeping up with the trends? How about when Brian Jones played an Appalachian dulcimer on "Lady Jane", or the marimbas on "Under My Thumb", what trends were he following then? Since the Yardbirds never released the sitar version of "Heartful of Soul" how can you be so sure that Brian Jones was aware they even used one?

    Unlike the Beatles who took Norwegian Wood, a song already written in mixolydian mode like a blues or folk song and applying a sitar to it Richards wrote paint it Black in minor Dorian mode in keeping with raga southern Asian Hindustani, music's tonalities and scales. His eclectic knowledge, logic and musical instincts were spot on. After all ... If you're going to write a song for a Hindustani instrument, you should at least use a Hindustani mode and scale. I am so sick and tired of reading about Brian Jones who simply copied a single line of melody from the song over and over again on an exotic instrument. How about a little recognition to the two geniusis who constructed and wrote the friggin' song from their creative imaginations?

    Their use of the sitar is nothing but chasing a fad. Listen to the demo tape of Norwegian Wood without the sitar, the song lacks quite a bit. The sitar was a necessary component. How often can that be said of the other songs that used a sitar during the 60s. Did Pink Floyd use a sitar? The Rolling Stones copied the Beatles and other groups before finding their own sound in Beggars Banquet.
