RAPE....MURDER... it's just a SHOUT AWAY Chilling words. The area was perfectly delivered.

The perfect war song. There is no other like it. There's a beauty and rhythm to it, but it is filled with fear and a haunting foreboding at every Crack. I mention the rhythm and groove because this is a perfect war song for us civilians. We have no idea what it's like for those out fighting or what it's like being a soldier. We simply can't comprehend it without living it. I feel this song represents that perfectly.

its great, you can really hear the full bed how it was laid out

Keef has got what? Three guitars going here. Ain't no else playin them, it's just Keef overdubbing. How much time did he take going back and overdubbing until he got this last mix that he was happy with. Screw the vocals, the guitar work here is a masterpiece. It don't need vocals, Mick's or Ms Clayton's, thats just icing on one helluva cake.

"Gimme Shelter" Oh, a storm is threat'ning My very life today If I don't get some shelter Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away Ooh, see the fire is sweepin' Our very street today Burns like a red coal carpet Mad bull lost your way War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away Rape, murder! It's just a shot away It's just a shot away Rape, murder! It's just a shot away It's just a shot away Rape, murder! It's just a shot away It's just a shot away The floods is threat'ning My very life today Gimme, gimme shelter Or I'm gonna fade away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away It's just a shot away It's just a shot away It's just a shot away I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away Kiss away, kiss away

Nights when i've insomnia, this helps me go into sleep

I love how it has like a double breakdown into the beat @ 0:46 and 0:52 and the 2nd breakdow is my favorite part and they only do it that one time during the entire song leaving you craving more.

I love the Beatles, Floyd, Who and respect Zep but neither did anything as groovy. (Prove me wrong with a link). It’s this and many other grooves to me that makes the Stones the greatest rock n roll band. The best band to dance to, hang in back yard over beers with the boys, shag with your lady, smoke a blunt, etc. Basically all the sins of life
