Drummer reacts to "Sympathy For The Devil" by The Rolling Stones

Thank you to our patron Scott for this awesome pick... I had heard the intro before in a movie or three but the rest of the song? Never heard it... but wow. This was awesome. I thought it was Bill playing that amazing bass but apparently it was Keith! That sounded SO good... pair that with the congas and maracas and you got yourself a top 500 song of all time. That was great. That was peak meme McJagger right there too... great stuff thank you again scott.

This is an ironic song, and a warning. The Devil is not a scary figure with horns and forked tail, he's a "man of wealth and grace". and he's with us every day. He urged the Romans and Israelis on when Jesus had his "moment of doubt and pain ", "rode a tank, held a general's rank" in the Nazi onslaught, ".when the blitzkrieg raged and the bodies stank". Mick is saying don't look too far away for him, he's all around us, encouraging every evil or callous act, and all too often he presents in a slick and attractive package;)

He was relegated to stoned maraca playing when they played the live version of this at the Dec. 1968 Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus. He’d be thrown out of the group 6 months later for being too “drugged up” to get a visa when the band wanted to tour this album in 1969 and would be found dead in his swimming pool on July 3, 1969. He’d just bought the former house of the author of Winnie the Pooh in Nov. of 1968, the month before the Rock and Roll Circus.

[@guichogf5636]

Some of the best music ever was created in the 60s and early 70s before record labels and promotors took over and suppressed the creative freedom the early bands had. By the late 70s record companies decided which song would be released as a single and get airplay, and that song is usually nowhere near the best the album has to offer. That's why it's so important to listen to the deep cuts, so many gems that you will never hear if you stick with the hits. By the end of the 70s, it became formula rock, and a lot of it sounds the same, also the focus became less on talent and more on promoting stadium concerts. There was still good music, but the creative freedom of the 60s and early 70s can't be beat.

But in order to fully appreciate the song you really do need to look at the lyrics… the brilliance of this track is in the edgy point of view and the way the message is delivered. Provocative and sassy. In a way, it’s an “insider” point of view that encourages the listener to think and figure it out like a puzzle until he gets to the verse where he says “Call me Lucifer”…. This is Mick taking on the personae of the devil… Inspired from reading “The Master And Margarita” as only he can pull off. What they do best!!

As a few others have mentioned, two other great versions of this song that you want to check out are: 1) the live video version from The Rolling Stones' Rock & Roll Circus, which is nearly identical to the studio version, but has that live energy that sometimes gets lost in the studio. Also you get to see Nicky Hopkins playing piano, Rocky Dijon playing congas, Charlie playing the samba beat at the opening, and Mick going all-out in his performance. 2) the live audio version from Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out, recorded at Madison Square Garden in late 1969. It's a more straight rock & roll version with great guitar solos from both Keith and Mick Taylor. Plus the whacked-out chick at the beginning who yells, "Paint It Black.......Paint It Black........Paint It Black, you devils!"

Altamont, a new music festival in Northern California, was the brainchild of the Rolling Stones, who hoped to cap off their U.S. tour in late 1969 with a concert that would be the West Coast equivalent of Woodstock, in both scale and spirit. Unlike Woodstock, however, which was the result of months of careful planning by a team of well-funded organizers, Altamont was a largely improvised affair that did not even have a definite venue arranged just days before the event. It was only on Thursday, December 4, 1969, that organizers settled on the Altamont Speedway location for a free concert that was by then scheduled to include Santana; the Jefferson Airplane; Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young; and the Grateful Dead, all in support of the headlining Stones. The event would also include, infamously, several dozen members the Hells Angels motorcycle gang acting as informal security staff in exchange for $500 worth of beer as a “gratuity.” It was dark by the time the concert’s next-to-last act, the Grateful Dead, was scheduled to appear. But the Dead had left the venue entirely out of concern for their safety when they learned that Jefferson Airplane singer Marty Balin had been knocked unconscious by one of the Hells Angels in a melee during his band’s performance. It was during the Rolling Stones’ set, however, that a 21-year-old Hells Angel named Alan Passaro stabbed a gun-wielding 18-year-old named Meredith Hunter to death just 20 feet in front of the stage where Mick Jagger was performing “Under My Thumb.” Unaware that someone had died, the Rolling Stones completed their set without further incident, bringing an end to a tumultuous day that also saw three accidental deaths and four live births. The killing of Meredith Hunter at Altamont was captured on film in Gimme Shelter, the documentary of the Stones’ 1969 tour by Albert and David Maysles and Charlotte Zwerin, which opens with Jagger viewing the footage in an editing room several months later. In the years since, Jagger has not spoken publicly about the killing, for which Passaro was tried but acquitted on grounds of self-defense.
