best stones jam
Gotta love Mick
I really the instrumental jam at the end of the piece.
love that dirty sax
One of the best rock songs ever recorded.
This is some of the best guitar work in rock music. I love the way the parts dance around each other and intermingle. The rhythm section is also excellent. Bobby's work on the sax is really the icing on the cake.
Banging sax. Great guitar work/ Solid song and yes I can hear them knocking.
The Stones are so musically diverse and this exemplifies the incredible range of their limitless bounderies with the amazing sax work by Bobby Keys. Awesome and timeless.
It maybe because of Blow, but this song makes want to party
I feel guilty to say guitar hero introduced me to this excellent stones tune. Who says videogames are bad lol
Mick Taylors guitar solo in this tune one of the all time greats!
bruce.savage
still gives me chills when the instrumental rythym, guitars, and sax section starts.....
Same here, my absolute favorite, they have so many classics but this one is in a class all it's own, one of my top ten of all time!
This! Is! My Favorite Stones tune! Hands down!!

plastic boots and cocaine eyes...

My fav Stones tune
byrnesthree
one of 3-4 tunes i really love by these guys...

Keith's opening Riff is just incredible. An Open G Masterpiece. With Keith its always been not what he plays, but the open spaces he leaves and his minimalist approach that set him apart from other guitarists that constantly noodle around and leave nothing to the imagination. His chord phrasing during the G, F, and C section in the chorus (Help me baby...I aint no stranger) and the brief licks he plays always struck me as masterful in their simplicity and brilliance.
sympathy for the devil and this= my fave
luv the stones....
One of Keith Richards and Mick Taylor's best guitar work.
Bobby Keys on sax.
gorksocks
Does anyone know who did the Sax solo?
hollybushaw
how could you not love this song...brill i a n t
rfpipeguy
Pound for Pound one of the Best Stones tunes EVER!!!
Love this song-every aspect of it. Jiving!!

Have to agree with other commenters. Great jam.....been a fav since I was teen. I swear the sax player also played with Steve Winwood.
Great comments - I quess I never paid much attention to what a cool jazzy sound this has. Thanks everybody.
I was in a Stones tribute band and this was so friggin fun to play. Love this tune. Even the "jazz exlporation in front of a festival crowd" is great. Love the ending climax. That opening riff... wow!... what else can I say!
We use to play air guitar to all the parts back some 30 + years ago....even the jazz instrumental is a JAM anda half....for those of you who have never appreciated it (the 2nd part) trust me its as much of as a groove as the opening RIFF...Great Fun....liste n e d to ths Jam thousands of time...crap I'm even writing about this now....CLASS I C of ALL Classics!
By FAR & AWAY - the greatest RIFF ever....even beat the GREAT iconic Satisfaction .

To me, this song has the most staying power of anything on SF. Brown Sugar and Wild Horses have worn out due to being over-played. Even when I was a teenager I appreciated the long instrumental section.
Little too much jazz oddesey in the middle of this one, cut that part out and this is a great rock song.
Killer Stones !

...gotta love that opening riff!

Before pop Stones, this is the blues influenced what they were really all about. Richards and Watts lay it down in the song along with Jager.

Love this tune !

Awesome, In the top 5 stones song
One of the Stones best!
the tone of the opening electric guitar is so perfect. tube amps at their best.
Mick Taylor definitely pulling from some American guitar action similar to Santana for this extended solo gem!
i don't have any problem with this, but why is every similar song by led zeppelin?
instrumental l y speaking my favorite stones song.
YEESSSSS! It finally came up on my station! This song is perfect.
Listen to this on the left channel alone, then on the right channel. Then put them back together and turn it up as loud as it can get. Woof.
The solo section sounds like they're trying to sound like Santana: Black Magic Woman, etc. Is it possible Carlos Santana himself isn't making a guest appearance? There should definitely be some Santana listed under the similar songs section.
Excellent for bars, except for the hour long instrumental
Chelsea Hotel, 1992-1993, when it wasn't the Black Crows coming through the wall from Robert's room, it was this song. Entered my half-waking dreams. But really came to appreciate the incredible cocaine crystal clarity of Mick Taylor's guitar playing.
f**king jam
