The Rolling Stones - Rip This Joint (REACTION)

[@jakeenan]

The band was cooking on this one. Bobby Keys on Sax and Nicky Hopkins on piano.....and Charlie drumming his butt off. keeping it all together.

[@perrymalcolm3802]

Now we’re cookin!!! Greatest Rock n Roll album ever!! WHOLE ALBUM!! The Mick Taylor era was the PEAK!!!

[@joescott8877]

It really was, my God, what a run!

[@luka-abodes]

The peak of rock n roll as an art form honestly. Crazy good.

[@sheila1965troubles]

Wow, guys, you REALLY need to cover this album front to back. Get the whole vibe they were putting out on this double album masterpiece. It's one of THE best Stones albums ever and to this day, I am still cranking this out,. especially in the summertime with the windows down, it's still that damn great ❤❤❤

[@VincentAgostino-gy6hr]

One of the four great Stones albums of the late 60’s and early 70’s.. There’s Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed 🩸, Sticky Fingers and this double album… They had some fun great music after this but these 5 pieces of vinyl were the peak of their creative history. Bobby Keys on saxophone 🎷

[@tonygreene3941]

And how could we forget Some Girls, I love that album

[@VincentAgostino-gy6hr]

@@tonygreene3941 so is Start Me Up.. Which I consider a sort of comeback album for them… But that one run of four records, the last with Brian and the interim with guest players like Jeff Beck and transitioning into Mick Taylor were great from start to finish… I thought

[@joescott8877]

@@VincentAgostino-gy6hr Just to be pedantic about it, lol: "Start Me Up" is really "Tattoo You." ;)

[@ednicholson7839]

Goat's Head Soup and It's Only Rock and Roll are quite good too and underrated -- personally I listen to them more than Beggars Banquet.

[@VincentAgostino-gy6hr]

@@joescott8877 I stand corrected but you have to admit, that’s the song that stands out on that record..😉

I always Spark Up My Pipe watching your videos.... I spark it up a lot of other times too, but always when watching your videos...Thanks again.

[@maartenvodeb5815]

This song fits perfect on #2 on Exile, especially when at the end you hear the sleazy intro of Shake Your Hips sliding in, it just all makes sense. This album is perfection. 🔥

[@perrymalcolm3802]

💯 agree!

[@jackempson3044]

We used to play this song in our band years ago. it was always fun song to play.

[@Boatzilla2]

This is THE Stones album, for true fans. Love to see you guys do the whole thing. Although, there may be one or two songs that are only good, rather than great. ;>) Thanks for your reactions. I always enjoy.

[@t.j.payeur5331]

Sticky Fingers..that's the one for "true" fans...

[@CANDOKNOWHOW]

@@t.j.payeur5331I see em as more of a triple album and usually play em both together like that. “Sway” is easily one of my Top 5 favorite Stones tunes, both are phenomenal and Stones at their peak in my book, and I couldn’t have a single one without the other. Then again, maybe some can’t really grok the Keith thing of tracing the roots of Americana here. It’s the sound that inspired them to collect records and form the band to begin with, and will always go real nice with a smooth shot of Bourbon to wash it all down.

[@JulioLeonFandinho]

@@t.j.payeur5331 If "true" fans mean "snob" ones who prefer B-sides and less known stuff, then Sticky Fingers isn't for true fans, by any means, almost every song was a hit, not stuff for "connoseurs"

[@JamesDrumm-c2z]

I thought everyone had forgotten this song. Thanks for playing it.

[@fuchsiaswing8545]

I am glad you emphasize the grime and sleaze. That's really what separates the Stones from the pack, no matter where they venture or what musical territory they're exploring. The entire Exile album is a rough-hewn journey through the swampiest, dirtiest, dingiest Americana-soul, gospel, rock and roll, folk, country, you name it. They do it better and more authentically than most Americans.

[@christineobrien7707]

It's RAW! And it's fantastic on the ears. In my opinion, the Stones rawness started in the late 60s, and then perfected in the 70s.😎👍👍

[@Fuphyter]

Perfectly worded! ❤

[@billadkins5150]

Great album! One of the all time great rock albums!

[@chakaloslaw]

Great rocker! Love the line, Dick and Pat (president Nixon and first Lady) in ol' DC going to hold some shit for me. Love it

[@garrickragon1232]

Charlie Watts is why that song kicks ass so much

[@williamstlouis3368]

His drumming on Sympathy for the Devil (Get Yer Ya Ya's Out) is lights out. Peace out.

[@goldenageofdinosaurs7192]

The metronome!

[@nazfrde]

I see you guys reading along with the lyrics while you're listening. You gotta remember there WAS no lyric sheet for this album when it came out, so for many many years we had no idea what he was singing.

[@joescott8877]

So true, lol! Only now am I still finding out what td many of my fave songs' words were!

[@CANDOKNOWHOW]

I’ve seen some interesting disputes over the accuracy of some of the lyrics they did post. I think in the doc “Stones In Exile” even Mick was unsure of some of what he had sang since they hadn’t kept performing many of the songs from that album for years.

[@charlesmurphy4144]

A total banger!

[@CANEsPappa]

IMO their best pure rocker! Love it!

[@dopeymark]

One of my favorite Rolling Stones albums... And I mean the entire double album.

[@kraig7777]

What made this song work for me was the way the saxophone player and Mick work together.

[@michaeljensen6732]

You should check out The Stones in the T.A.M.I. show from 1964. They followed James Brown and the Famous Flames and you can see Mick trying some similar moves. Also, Keith is loving the attention from the young, mostly female crowd. Great performances by Smokie and the Miracles and even The Supremes.

[@AW11-e4h]

Greatest Rock n Roll band ever 🤘🤘

[@wanderer0617]

I saw them last week in Vegas and Seattle. It was incredible, high energy Stones as always. What a gift ❤ Check them out, if you can, when they come to Santa Clara. Totally worth it.

[@mamaflush9945]

Hello La & Che, here's a new band to give a listen, if interested. "Savoy Brown - I Can't Get Next To You" (by the channel: Savoy Brown) --This song was originally released by 'The Temptations" and you might find it interesting to check out the original so as to hear both renditions not to compare, but rather just to hear how both groups put their own flavor to them, if interested. And I 'll leave a link to their tune also. Anyway, this song by Savoy Brown is from their 1971 album called 'Street Corner Talking' this blues rocking album features the soulful vocals of Dave Walker and the masterful guitar work of Kim Simmonds. Savoy Brown was a blues rock band formed in Battersea, Southwest, London in 1965. They were part of the late 1960's blues rock movement. While they may not have achieved the same commercial success as some of their contemporaries, their music remains influential. They helped spawn the 1968 British-bllues rock movement. Their energetic blend of blues and rock placed them alongside giants such as Cream and Fleetwood Mac. Savoy Brown opened the eyes of many American teenagers and future budding artists to their own home territory blues artists. And here's the link to the legendary R&B, soul group that made this all possible. (hehehe) 😏 "The Temptations - I Can't Get Next To You (on The Ed Sullivan Show" (by the channel: The Ed Sullivan Show) It's always fun rocking with you two fellas. Oh, and I have totally enjoyed your journey with the movie documentary of Muscle Shoals. There were so many amazingly talented artists, both black & white that came from the Delta. Many artists such as Percy Sledge, Wilson Pickett, The Staple Singers, Tamiko Jones, just to name a few. I will try to leave some suggestions for a few of them in future, if interested. And as always, I enjoy rocking with you two, thanks for sharing. peace out~

I wore out the Street Corner Talkin album. Other favorite songs by them: ALL I Can Do is Cry! ✌🏼 And don't forget Hellbound Train 🚉

Yeah, I have to disagree. It's good ol fashion rock n roll, but with that said, it does carry the spirit of punks reckless abandon.

[@jlb6]

The MC5 and the Stooges predate this record

[@fuchsiaswing8545]

@@jlb6And the Stones obviously predate both the Stooges and MC5. In fact, Wayne Kramer of MC5 considered the Stones and the Who his idols. Additionally, the Stooges were hugely inspired by the Stones; even Iggy says “No Fun” has a direct Stones influence. Iggy also lists 12 x 5 (1964) as one of his favorite records.

@ 02:44 - This pretty much sums up why the Rolling Stones are arguably the greatest Rock and Roll band ever.... If the Beatles would have stayed together longer, THEY probably would have the title ✌️😎....

[@loupi4bama]

We always called them the world's greatest garage band. Wasn't an insult mind you." Alabam don't give a damn" always cracked me up. 😂

[@ednicholson7839]

This is the Stones channeling Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis. The best known songs on this album are "Happy" and "Tumbling Dice" -- classic rock staples. But it's the non hit songs that really define this album -- which is one of their greatest. It's raw, timeless rock, blues, R&B and country -- even a bit of gospel style going on one or two songs.

[@fuchsiaswing8545]

Indeed, that is the amalgam that is Americana. They're going deep into the swampiest, dingiest avenues of American music.

[@AliasMark69]

I have that same Beatles shirt hanging in my music room.... 36 Electric Guitars, 5 acoustics, 4 keyboards, 128 piece drum/percussion kit. You guys would have a great time here.

Keith Richards said that even he had to work at keeping up with the ridiculous pace of this rocker.

[@adk100m]

Fellas ... just wondering ... how do you choose the cuts you listen to? Just curious ... you're cutting a fine path. While within "Exile" ... give "Stop Breakin Down" (their take on the old Robert Johnson tune) a listen--great all around, but Mick Taylor's lead work (slide included) lifts them to a NEW place. You will enjoy it ... Keep it up ...

[@bradsullivan2495]

"Dallas, Texas with the Butter Queen" references Barbara Cope, a groupie who was infamous for hooking up with rock stars and using butter (supposedly Land o' Lakes😂) during her efforts. She died in a fire in 2018.

[@CANDOKNOWHOW]

You guys should also listen to Start Me Up, Loving Cup, She's Like a Rainbow and Play With Fire. Absolute bangers.

[@JulioLeonFandinho]

This is how rock and roll should sound always, It's raw, crude and direct, It's like the early Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Elvis recordings, It's chaotic, organic and sleazy, It's just a band playing altogether recorded live, working like a living beautiful organism in opposition to a machine.

[@Thomas-aka-TomD]

The Rolling Stones are like Coca Cola. No one ingredient is extroadinary but together they f-------- Rock, and are and always have been the greatest rock n roll band ever. While Lennon & McCartney might own greatest song writers ever title , the Stones have a sound thats never matched.

Speaking of Motown they released "My Girl" on their "Flowers" LP from '67. They also covered "Under The Boardwalk on their second US LP.

I'm jumping in on this one because it's your most recent video. I would love to have a jam session with you guys and open you up to more from the 70s and early 80s. Case in point, some blue eyed soul from a band called oddly enough the Average White Band! I'm sure you've heard a few of their songs but either didn't know it was them or didn't know they are a bunch of white dudes from Scotland. Queen of My Soul is where I suggest you start, and if you love it, gimmie a shout out!

Love this album. I was a Stones fan at 13 in 1973. There waa a group of YES fans who would argue they would be around forever, NOT The Stones. lmao They're still at it!

Please, please, please take a listen to Eric Clapton’s live performance of Old Love at Madison Square Garden, late 90’s, I believe. You could probably cut the reaction after his solo….which has got to be at least 4-5 minutes long. The whole performance would probably be too long, but there’s a perfect place to stop after his solo. This piece is so beautiful. This and a couple of great live performances around ‘93 or ‘94…Have You Ever Loved A Woman and Five Long Years. Believe the last two were at Fillmore East. He brings out the Gibson on one of the last two, believe it’s Have You Ever Loved A Woman. Thank you, La and Che

I keep thinking that if they did it straight through they’d get the full effect of the blues, soul, gospel sound of this record. Especially after the Muscle Shouls doc soaks in, as it’s a crucial reminder of the story of how rock became what it did, which are the the very roots of the Americana that The Stones were channeling from the start, even in name.

[@erolbulut2584]

Amazing that they made this spectacular album considering that they were swimming in a sea of drugs and alcohol.

[@davihinghaus9785]

I'm not saying it's a bad song, but it's a track that adds nothing to the band's discography or to the gigantic "Exile" album itself. This album has 18 tracks and at least 14 of them are fantastic. On the other hand, Rip this Joint is one of those tracks made "to complete the album".
