    i agree. "let it bleed" through "exile on main street" was definately their best period. bobby keys' sax contributed a lot to the success of the stones new direction during this wonderful period. "exile" was one of the best albums ever produced. "live with me," "can't you hear me knockinge" and "casino boogie" are very underrated and are still among my favorite stone songs.

    This is an awesome channel. I'm a 71 year old male, and I find it fascinating that such a young person as yourself is so knowledgeable and interested in 1960's and early 1970's music. I have children, grandchildren and spouse who simply yawn when I try to share my love of this music with them. Your broad knowledge of the members of bands making the LPs, and facts about them, the instruments and engineering of the music, the situations revolving around the making of various LPs being reviewed, and many other tangential aspects, is awesomely amazing to me. I love talking about music to anyone who would listen to me (which is rare), so I hope you find enjoyment in the videos you make here. I lived life in the times these records came out (age 15 to 22). In living rooms with black lights, friends, joints being passed around, and the music ... always the music. Falling in love with the 8-track playing "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" and later a broken heart alone listening to "Behind Blue Eyes." Always the music. And then, as my youth gave up its magic to the weight of adulthood, the music also seemed to go. The prior group of friends now gathered to drink and Numb out on quualudes, and the raw joy turned to cynicism. The music reflected this in disco and punk. But the vinyls were always there in the closet, even though they were forgotten to cassettes and CDs. And here you are, knowing more than me about the music that framed the most felt moments of my life. I truly hope this music brings you the joy it brought me.

    1986, I'm 16 years old and I take some records home from my aunt's house to listen to. CS&N, Neil Young, , Big Brother, etc..etc..At the time I was listening to a lot of 80s metal. I put on Sticky Fingers and from the opening chords of Brown Sugar straight to the last note of Moonlight Mile, I literally just STARED at the needle tracking the grooves for all 46 minutes of this album and I was stunned by everything I heard, trying to make sense of every note I was hearing. That guitar solo on "Sway"?? What was this sound?? This was so different than what I was familiar with, but I didn't know what it was that stood out to me. Later on, I realized it was blues and blues rock, but it had a groove.....It had the ROLL that was missing from the popular music of the day. I'm now 52 and the Stones are my favorite band. This record literally changed my listening habits forever in the span of10 songs, I ditched my music collection of the time and set out upon this new path discovering everything Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf..etc..and I've been on this journey ever since.

    In an interview for Vanity Fair magazine, the co-designer of the Sticky Fingers cover along with Andy Warhol, a man named Craig Braun, revealed the model on the front and back cover was a make-up artist at Andy's Factory called Corey Tippin. Craig said Andy shot a number of different models on Polaroid film for the Sticky Fingers cover, but Corey was ultimately chosen because he wore the tightest jeans. The idea for the inside "briefs" gatefold came after they shot the front and back covers and a different model was used, a man named Glenn O’Brien as Corey wasn't available at that time.

    Check out the relationship Exile on Main St. has with Sticky Fingers. This double album combined with Sticky Fingers makes up a triple that represents the zenith of the Stones. Yes Beggars Banquet and Let it Bleed are a fantastic build up and Goats Head Soup is a fine record but the peak occurs at Sticky Fingers and Exile.

    Already commented under your let it bleed video. Wild Horses is a song that means THE WORLD to me. I even wrote my own short Story, titled Wild Horses, where i cope with one of the worst break ups i ever experienced back in 2019. Even if she never reads or listens to this short Story, I'm glad i wrote it, i even have it read by a professional voice actor and pressed it on see through 12'' Vinyl. I collected all the Singles of Wild Horses that i could find (Rolling Stones Magazine Germany did a 7" Single of the acoustic Version in 2015), but i also tracked down and bought the original Single, framed one of the Acoustic Singles and hung it on my wall, because this song is so special to me. It was my way of dealing with that loss of a person who was unable to love me the same way i loved her. Worst part was that we never cleared our closets out and never spoke ever since. I won't try to do so, she made clear she does not want any contact and i respect that, even if it was hard to do so. So yeah, that is what Wild Horses of All Songs means to me. It was also the song that i showed her when we spend our first night at her place. I put that song on, grabbed her hand and we danced so slowly in her living room, looked each other in the eyes and that was when i told her, how i felt for her. Where she realized how deep my feelings really were for her. I guess due to her mental health issues she got scared of that thing called love, because at first, she was so happy, kissed and hugged me and wrote me a deep felt emotional letter how special i was to her, and after a few weeks out of the blue she just ended it, didn't even wanna talk to me and ignored me knocking and ringing when i went to her place. That was the point where i realized i couldn't do anything about it and when i started to write the short story, never as an attempt to win her back, just as an attempt for my own well being, for my own peace. And sometimes when i listen to Wild Horses, in dark starry nights i think of her, what could have been, what she does right now and how she feels about it today. But i'll never try to contact her again, even though she is a special person and always will have a special place in my heart. That is my personal wild horses Story, my personal Wild Horses won't drag me away but also keep me from contacting her out of respect. Sometimes when you love someone you just know it's better, not to be in that persons life.

    I got really lucky back in February of 1999 I think it was. I went to see Mick Taylor in Dallas at a small club. My friend that also went, or I should say one of them, had brought a real rare LP and he was hoping to get Mick to sign it if we had a chance to meet him. One of the crew members for Mick saw it and they struck up a conversation as we were standing outside waiting to get in. We literally were sitting at a table right in front of Mick for the concert and got some great photos. But after the show, Mick exited to his bus real quick. There was a line that had started up outside of the bus door but nobody was getting on or off of the bus. Finally a person or two got to go on and meet him. But then the guy who had spotted the album and was on Mick's crew opened the bus door and said he was sorry but Mick wasn't going to be able to meet any more people. But because of that album, and the guy saw us standing out there, he brought us right up on the bus where Mick was kicked back drinking with his sunglasses on. We got to talk to him, take some pictures with him, and I got him to sign my ticket. He really didn't smile until he saw the album and he seemed to loosen up a little bit. I think he was a little burned out on playing smaller venues and probably having people trying to meet him every few nights. But I thought it was really cool, and I wasn't even trying to get on the bus, to get pulled up there and get to meet one of The Rolling Stones past members. I wound up tracking down a bootleg of the show about 15 years later also. I think it was February 25th, 1999. You mentioned Robin Trower also. I got to meet him by pure accident after he played at the House of Blues in Dallas about 10 years ago. The same friend that had the Rolling Stones LP that got us on the bus to meet Mick and I went to the concert. I was standing up near the front row center stage really getting into Robin's playing. I was recording that show and he could see me clearly holding the microphone and doing it. He didn't care and he just smiled. So, after the concert ended, my friend and I decided to walk over to a restaurant maybe 20 or 30 minutes after the concert ended. And walking around the back side of the HOB, a door flies open and Robin Trower and two of his guys come walking out to a white Escalade limo parked by the curb. He just walked right out into where we were passing and nobody else was around. He talked to us for at least 10 minutes before his guys called him from out of the limo window saying we got to go. Of course I got him to sign my ticket too and he was the most laid-back, really happy and cool guy! I've had a few other planned and lucky meetings through the years but I'll save those for times when they fit with the video's 👍🎶👍

    It’s very interesting how you analyze an album from the personal stuff that was going on with the band. Most people just talk about the music and performances. Good job there. !! This album Sticky Fingers is peak Rolling Stones. With Mick Taylor as a full time member, the band plays some of the most riveting music of their career. “Sway” is one of my fav all time Stones songs. But after watching your video I played the song 3 times…I don’t think I ever noticed the strings. I have always been transfixed by Taylor’s incredible solos on that tune. I agree about Mick Taylor…he is a great guitarist. He and Jagger are the only guitar players on “Sway” . Keith added only vocals. But Taylor felt he should have been given a writers credit on this and some other songs. Since he didn’t … I heard that was one of the reasons he left the band after It’s Only Rock and Roll. Also Ry Cooder added some fine slide guitar on “Sister Morphene”. And I didn’t know that was recorded during the Let it Bleed sessions. I agree with your list of underrated guitar players. Roy Buchanan played a Telecaster so his sound is a little like Albert King…sort of light. But Roy was super fast…I loved his version of “Hey Joe” I doubt many who watch your videos would know who Danny Kirwan was . He was a great foil for Peter Green in the original Fleetwood Mac. My favorites are “Green Manalishi” and “Rattlesnake Shake” (at about 25 min) from Live At Boston (1970) now a 3 cd set. I hope you like the extra info…you may know it anyway…but it’s fun talking about music with someone who takes the time you obviously do in your videos. Rock On 🤘!!!

    This is the second of your reviews I've watched. I was born in 1952. I was somewhat involved with the music scene later, staffing big shows as a medical volunteer for Bill Graham Events (HAFMC) for fourteen years. I was backstage at most classic rock acts you can name, including The Rolling Stones. It is really interesting to hear a Millennial reacting and reliving the Boomer years' music. Interesting because back then, very few people had much information on what was going on because it was happening, not a retrospective of history thoroughly researched and reported for decades. There was a lot going on and of course, the drugs made things fuzzy for a lot of people. Later, the joke became, "if you can remember the 60s, you weren't there." Some of the stories I know, other stuff not. Yet other things sometimes sound legendary, rather than factual. But your enthusiasm is fun to watch. I am glad you enjoy my generation's music.

    Thanks for sharing, Abby. Growing up, I listened to the "Brown Sugar" single, which I inherited somehow from one of my older brothers. In college, I started hearing album cuts on my area classic rock radio station, then got a copy of the record from a fellow Stones fan. Phenomenal album. "Dead Flowers" is fun to cover, too. Speaking of covers, I enjoy The Sundays' dreamy cover of "Wild Horses" and Townes Van Zandt's stripped-down cover of "Dead Flowers," which I first heard when watching "The Big Lebowski" ("The Dude abides").

    Sway is my favorite Stones song, all bluesy drunken swagger. With that opening stutter riff, I can picture them stumbling into a bar, about to take the place over. Lyrically, Sway has them wrestling with their evil influences, making this their most important album (but not best). After the horrors of Altamont, would they double-down on their evil image, or take a different direction? You be the judge. I'm still not decided.

    Strange Sticky Finger facts: The Spanish cover was censored. In it's place was a tacky photo of a jar of treacle with a mannequin hand coming out of it. Sister Morphine was also censored and was replaced with a live version of Let It Rock. As for Mick Taylor, in 2010 Mick was suppose to play a concert in Fall River, Massachusetts. Mick was staying at a little motel down the road from my record shop in Somerset. An ambulance was called. They couldn't get Mick out of bed. It transpired that he had double pneumonia and was in the local hospital for 10 days. It was kept hush hush for obvious reasons. It could have been the end of Mick Taylor but he pulled through!

    Hi, Abby! Another great review of a great lp. I spent a lot of time jamming to this album on guitar when it came out. Years later, I played bass mostly (and some guitar) in various bands doing rock, blues, country and even bluegrass and gospel. But you absolutely hit the nail on the head when you said that a great band comes down to having a great drummer. They don't need to be flashing, just steady. Same thing with the bass. When you can get the bass player and the drummer locked in together, your band will be awesome! You know your stuff lady! 😘💕💕💕💕

    Jagger also plays the electric rhythm guitar on 'Sway', a song which Taylor insists he wrote the majority of, but is nevertheless attributed to Jagger/Richards. The only connection Richards has to the song is he sings the backing vocals during the chorus.

    My favorite album of all time from any band. I was 11 when it came out, and I played it so many times over the years, that I wore out 2 vinyl copies and 2 CDs. But the thing is, after all those times listening to the album, I have never tired of it. It still sounds fresh to me. I love hearing reactions to some of these classics by young people on KZread hearing these songs for the very first time. I can only imagine what it must be like to hear Can't You Hear Me Knocking or Moonlight Mile for the very first time. Musical orgasm.

You knew already there were strings on "Moonlight Mile". But the remaster is "Oh Geez! The Strings!" Charlie's Drums on "Brown Sugar"? Phenomenal. Acoustic guitars in both channels can be heard crisp and full. You can hear the squeaks of Mick Taylor's and Keith's fingers as they go up and down the frets. Can't go wrong.

    You made me realize just why I love Sway so much. This whole album is very special to me. It always brings me back to being 8-9 years old in the '97 GMC Suburban with my dad's CD on repeat. Often he was taking me to drum lessons. And yes, I adored (and still adore) Charlie's drumming. His death hit me hard. I picked up a really nice later 70s UK pressing at a yard sale years ago (in NJ, naturally), but sadly the zipper was not down at one point. The rekkid ended up with a little bump which thankfully does not skip, but can be heard. It was so clean otherwise... Sister Morphine: gloomy drug song. Dead Flowers: cheery drug song right after it. Both are amazing. And I have also been known to enjoy a blue Am-Spir here and there. Alright, enough of my stream-of-consciousness rambling. Great video!

    I haunted Record Lane in Lowell, MA in 1971, waiting until the Brown Sugar/Bitch single to come out. And it was beautiful, bright yellow label, red tongue, the songs fit right into my 15 yr old DNA at the time. And then, the mighty Sticky Fingers. I had to hide the album from my parents’ wandering eye. Saw the first Boston concert (July 18) on the 1972 tour. Fifty years later, I have multiple copies of the album: vinyl, SACD, box sets, cds. I still love it, and it still gets my rocks off.

    Thank you for the great Sticky Fingers review video. If I may offer a tidbit of info with all do respect...1st, the cover has been pretty much established to have been the crotch of Joe Delessandro (AW Factory model/actor). 2nd, the amazing slide guitar contribution of Ry Cooder on Sister Morphine. 3rd and again with all due respect to you, Wild Horses was actually written by Keith and is about Anita and taking care their son Marlon alone while Keith was on the road in 69. Not a breakup song. And Gram Parsons was a very close friend of Keith's who was also present at Nellcote during the Exile sessions. Anyway, I am not trying to diminish the great job you have done. This has been my favorite album for 50 years now and the reason I watched this video and my first intoduction to you. And yes, I subscribed! I look forward to more. Be well and rock on!

    Love your video, Abigail! A small(ish) correction: Marianne Faithfull did receive her financial share for Sister Morphine (the lyrics are ALL hers) from 1971 onwards, but no writing credit on the record cover until 1994. Why? Because at the time of Sticky Fingers' release she was still signed to a different label (Decca), to which the Stones and manager Allen Klein didn't want to pay royalties - they had just split from Decca and founded their own label Rolling Stones Records, distributed by Atco/Atlantic. Her own 1969-version of the song had been scraped by Decca only a few days after hitting the shops because of the problematic lyrics (especially delivered by a woman in these still very conservative times!). She herself has often spoken of Mick's generosity. He even held her hand, literally, while she recorded her version during the Let It Bleed sessions and recruiting Charlie Watts, Ry Cooder and Jack Nietzsche as instrumentalists. It also could be mentioned that Mick bought a small house (Yew Cottage) in the English countryside for Marianne's mom Eva in the late 1960s to be returned after Eva's passing. Marianne astutely offered Mick to give back the property after Eva's death in 1991 although Mick did not insist on this at all. A few days later she regretted her proud move because her son Nicholas who had grown up in that cottage and was very fond of it did not understand why she wanted to give it back. Alas, she phoned Mick again, clumsily pleading, upon which Jagger started ghosting her for a couple of years. 😬 I write this as a Faithfull fan, having read both her autobiographies (I'm just rereading her gorgeous second book Memories, Dreams and Reflections, from 2007). I love Marianne, she totally rocks and is an extremely cultured, well-read lady, and a unique artist. But I know from interviews with some of her contemporaries that she could be entitled and quite a hand-full or two. 😊

    Very cool hearing your take on Sticky Fingers, so in touch w/its subtler nuances here in 2022 that you almost sound like you lived in the era. Or actually you get those nuances maybe more than many of us did then, what w/time (and your musical intelligence) distilling things. You said so many great things about Wild Horses; I would add that while it can be heard as Mick and Marianne's breakup song, and their troubles, I also hear it as Anita and Keith's stay-together song, after Mick and Anita's affair during Performance , Brian's death, drug issues, all the turmoil you mentioned the band (and their generation) were sort of emerging from. Then again at the time Keith said he wrote it for their son Marlon; many things can be true simultaneously lol. "Wild horses couldn't drag me away"...so beautiful.

    Sticky Fingers is near & dear to my heart. One of the best albums that always got played at big parties. I saw the Stones on their Zip Code Tour in 2015 & I had an out-of-body experience when they played Moonlight Mile. The odds of getting that epic tune are astronomical. Keith Richards has absolutely no filter during interviews. LOL. He was asked about Sgt. Pepper's & he said it was a load of rubbish. A little harsh, but he had a great point: He asked the interviewer when's the last time you listened to Sgt. Pepper's & when's the last time you listened to The Rolling Stones. I listen to the Stones a lot. Their albums are in constant rotation for me. Once in a great while, I revisit The Beatles. I wore them out when I was young & I tend to have more fun listening to their earlier albums like Rubber Soul & Revolver.
