[@andyandalex]

Posted a fun poll only with songs that had the work ‘rock’ in it and this came on top!! Was a blast coming back to the stones, what’s next for them?! 🙌🏻🔥

[@j.j.4150]

Exile On Main Street (isn't cheating as a suggestion, right?😂)

[@dannyapeshit]

You guys need to do Bang a Gong (Get it On) by T Rex, it's the song that influenced the sound on this one. But as far as Stones go, Jumping Jack Flash if you haven't done it yet. Monkey Man is my personal favorite Stones song tho.

[@frankpentangeli8104]

Great song! The next Stones song has to be Star Star. And after that, please do Bitch.

[@redarmysoja]

"Stray cat blues", nasty and funky.

[@j.j.4150]

@@redarmysoja Stray Cat Blues? Yeah, probably the Stones at their raunchiest. Dope Track!

[@maceomaceo11]

"Tumblin Dice" If this is A+ or almost an "s", then "Tumblin Dice" is a rating breaker and everything will need reevaluated.

[@WDRhine]

Absolutely. "It's Only Rock 'n Roll" is a good song but maybe a B in the Stones catalog. "Tumblin' Dice" or, my favorite, "Moonlight Mile" are so far ahead that "It's Only..." is just a speck in the rearview mirror.

[@larrywilliams1372]

"Tumblin' Dice" is my first choice too.

Agreed. They should do the Stone's version, then Linda Ronstadt's. Speaking of which, do some Linda Ronstadt.

I don’t think the Brian Jones era resonates with them. They didn’t love Satisfaction.

[@gregsager2062]

@@sukie584 True, but I'll bet that "Paint It Black" will transcend their prejudice against the early Stones, because: a) they like exotic sounds; b) the melody is, to use their favorite term, "impeccable"; and c) it's one of Jagger's most, to use another A&A preferred term, "charismatic" performances.

You Can't Always Get What You Want - Stones

[@vKarl7]

Mick Jagger wrote this song with future Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood at Ronnie’s house. They recorded it there with Bowie on backing vocals, and Willie Weeks on bass, Kenny Jones on drums. It’s a Stones song with very few actual Stones on the studio version. EDIT: forgot to mention Keith recorded over much of Ronnie’s guitar after Mick showed it to the boys, making Mick & Keith the only (official) Stones on the recording. Shout out to Dan Hartzog for catching that!

[@scotts6702]

omg had no idea. thanks for sharing, very cool insight 👍🏻

[@damienparis5377]

yeas...what Scott said...

[@vKarl7]

@@scotts6702 Isn’t it an awesome origin story? It’s one of very few Stones tracks to feature no Charlie, along with the 3 songs their then-producer Jimmy Miller played drums on (You Can’t Always Get What You Want, Happy, Ventilator Blues) and much of 1986’s Dirty Work which featured studio players (he was a junkie at the time and is often missing on that album).

[@danhartzog9274]

If I recall correctly, Keith erased most of Ronnie’s guitar and they just used the backing track.

Guys, I got to see the Stones in ‘78 when I was in 5th grade because my uncle’s date stood him up. The opening act was Peter Tosh, an original Wailer (Bob Marley and Bunny Livingston were the others). I immediately fell in love with reggae. The Stones were incredible! So here I am, up on my uncle’s shoulders, watching ladies ripping their tops off and throwing their panties on stage while Mick prances around with this ridiculous outfit: a football jersey cut off at the midriff, cut off sweat pants with strings hanging off of them and those ‘70s tube socks with three different colored stripes.

Gotta love Keith’s guitar work, he always sounds like he is about to fall down any minute and never does, what riffs

[@markbarnwell942]

Legendary band with all the goods to back up their status. A must for anyone who appreciates music esp well crafted music. Rock n Roll doesn't get better than this.

Early Stones songs next. Paint it Black or Mother's Little Helper.

[@colindebourg9012]

Brown Sugar, Jumping Jack Flash, Honky Tonk Women, Tumbling Dice, this bands been going for 60 years !! just so much to choose from.

[@KawaTony1964]

The Stones are very, very deep. I'd hit "Jumpin' Jack Flash" next, but there many others: "Honkey Tonk Women", "Miss You", "Angie", "Start Me Up", "Brown Sugar", and many I probably don't know. They're catalog is so huge. It was only in the last 5 years I heard "Dead Flowers" which is really good. There's a live version where Charlie Watts makes a mistake drumming, and you can see Mick laugh about it while he's singing. But "Dead Flowers" has some of the best guitar work I've heard in any Stones song.

[@rickhamlin5733]

Mick Taylor was the best guitarist the Stones ever had, very underrated

[@WDRhine]

Maybe but he doesn't play on this track.

[@rickhamlin5733]

@@WDRhine With Jagger flying back and forth to Nicaragua from Paris constantly for Bianca and Keith at the peak of his drug use, Taylor effectively produced ‘Exile’. By the time ‘It’s Only Rock N Roll’ was in the works I think he tired of the workload.

[@tommathews3964]

Agreed!

[@spacecardinal]

You wrong. Maybe underrated. Keith rules!

I found out yesterday that Charlie Watts was a jazz drummer. This is according to a Ginger Baker interview. I can hear the influence. Awesome.

[@christianbrasso8257]

The Stones' Get yer ya ya's out is one of the best live albums ever recorded-jumpin jack flash, midnight rambler(amazing!) honky tonk woman, street fighting man, sympathy for the devil and chuck berry's little queenie and carol.

Really like the piano on their songs - Monkey man, She’s a like a Rainbow, Can’t always get what you want.

"I betcha think that you're the only girl around; I'll betcha that you're the only woman in this town. Whew! Yeah!" Love those lines. So rebellious ...

Would love to see you guys react to Jumpin’ Jack Flash, Ruby Tuesday, Play With Fire, Dancing With Mr. D, 100 Years Ago (that jam at the end!), Midnight Rambler, Street Fighting Man, Stray Cat Blues, Can You Hear The Music (transcendent), Let It Loose, and Ventilator Blues.

100 Years Ago is such an underrated song.

[@denabergman5847]

Masterful and powerful. Every. Single. Tune. I’ve been listening to them since 1964. Yep, I’m a boomer too. This band is flawless, in my book.

[@chrisjenkins6120]

I love watching Andy. He steps right into the tune. He mentioned the garage band sound and he said it right because that’s what it really is.

[@meatme53]

I have to tell you guys how amazing you are! Not to creep you out or anything. Haha. I’ve heard all the songs you critique probably thousands of times over my lifetime. I hear the words and the story they tells for the mood they put me I. And the same with the music. You guys pick it the aspects of the song with changes and their meaning or or tones or rhythmical elements. Things I never paid any real attention to. Anyway. Great job. And if you want more Rush, listen to Battle Scar by a band called Max Webster. Canadian band from Toronto Canada like Rush. If you like what you hear, The Party and/or Diamonds Diamonds. Growing up Max Webster/Kim Mitchel had the ultimate outdoor festival kind of vibe.

[@j.j.4150]

The great thing about Exile is, you guys have not done a single Track from it! It's really one you should do in it's entirety for the first time. I consider it THE quintessential Rock 'N' Roll Album.

[@gregjones861]

The choppy feel you referred to was Charlie Watts displacing the kick and snare in places. As for what's next, I have only three words: Honky Tonk Women. Their Masterpiece. And there's a deceptively syncopated cowbell! A MUST!

[@rc1564]

[@dancingmachine47]

Honky Tonk Woman, Tumbling Dice come to mind - "The Rolling Stones: Live at the Max" is a live concert video (DVD) to not be missed! The Rolling Stones and the Beatles hit it big here in the US around the same time in the early 60's.

[@sendtosw]

Saw the Stones in Berlin less than a year after this song came out. Opened with this.

[@TheBTG88]

"Can't always get what you want" for something different from them.

[@Cheryworld]

Love the Rolling Stones, but I always thought this was one of their weakest hits. Maybe next - Jumping Jack Flash, Bitch, Brown Suger, Miss You, Honky Tonk Woman, Tumbling Dice, Star Star, Paint It Black, Stray Cat Blues. With the Rolling Stones, often their live recordings are better than studio

[@jameswalls4172]

Brown Sugar.and Jumping Jack Flash were always(and still are)the great show openers to rip things wide open.

[@steveandme63]

Excellent suggestions.. this is quintessential rock and roll. Pure rock from my childhood.

[@sarahzentexas]

Ooh, hard disagree with that about live Stones. They can be sloppy and totally screw up a song, or a bunch of songs. I’ve seen them many times, and there’s no uniformity. Their stuff is better on record, with a very few exceptions.

[@howardchaney6481]

Except Midnight Rambler, the live version on Get Yer Ya Ya's Out! is a Masterpiece
