In 1980, Frank Zappa did a two hour programme as a guest DJ on Radio One here in the UK. I listened to it live, and it introduced me to several new artists. He played some great tracks, including Paint It Black. He pointed out what he called the "Woom, woom" of the bass on there, which I hadn't really noticed. It seems that you didn't notice it either, but once you hear it, it becomes unmissable. Really good. You can now find a transcript of the Zappa programme online. I had to look it up to get the date. I don't know if there's a recording of the show. I'll have to check that out.

This takes me back!! When I was at college (Uni), Summer 1977 three of us sharing a student flat (apartment) in Leeds Yorkshire. We all had summer placements for our courses, so stayed in Leeds over the summer holidays. We spent many an enjoyable summer evening, drinking beers and playing Risk and the like, and listening to great music on my stereo. And then wandering across the road to the great Whitbread East Pennines pub after. Most played and memorable, by far, was a Stones compilation album. I will always think back to those great days, whenever I hear the Stones. And Doug's reaction tonight brought that all back again, and cheered me up immensely! Cheers, Doug!

One nondescript autumn day, on maybe my 187th listen to "Paint It Black," headphones on, I paid close attention to all the different pieces of the outro. I think there are like six separate rhythms all happening at once: the acoustic guitars have their little rhythm, the bass has its little rhythm, the castanets are doing their thing, Keith and Brian are humming their sardonic-sounding thing, Mick comes back in with his entirely separate lead vocal thing. But instead of being a mess, it's entrancing. The outro is my favorite part.

Brian Jones actually started the band. In 1962 he placed an ad in a magazine called Jazz News. Ian Stewart(piano Player) answered the ad. He was the first to sign up. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards met Brian in The Ealing Club in 1962. Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts joined shortly after. The boys were brought together because of their love for American Blues and Rock N Roll artists. Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf, Little Walter, Jimmy Reed , Check Berry, Slim Harpo, Little Richard to name a few were some of their favorites. The first four Stones albums contain many Blues and Rock N Roll Classics by the previously mentioned artists. Carol, I'm a King Bee, I Just Wanna Make Love to You, Look What You've Done, Route 66, Little Red Rooster are some stand outs from the first four albums. The Stones cover of the Howling Wolf song "Little Red Rooster" is the only 12 bar blues ever to go to number one in England. A Record that still stands today. The Stones wanted that Blues sound so badly on their records so badly that they came to Americas in 1964 to record at Chess Studios in Chicago. Some of the greatest blues music has been recorded at Chess. "Confessin' The Blues, I Can't Be Satisfied, Time is on My Side, It's all over Now, Around and Around, Time is On my Side, Look What You've Done are a few stand outs . Brian Jones' Harmonica on Look What You've Done is amazing. His Slide Guitar on I Can't Be Satisfied was praised by Muddy Waters himself. Mick Jagger also plays the harmonica. However, Mick's playing is more the slow wailing Kind of sound. His harmonica can be heard on Little Red Rooster toward the end. This era of the band lasted from 1963 to the end of 1964. In 1965 the direction changed when Mick & Keith started writing their own songs. Satisfaction, the Last Time, Get Off My Cloud, Mothers Little Helper, 19th Nervous Breakdown, Heart of Stone, were hits for the boys back in late 64-65. Note: In about 1965 Ian Stewart was asked by management to step out of the limelight. He did not look like the rest of the band. He had short hair, dressed differently. He played on Stones records from 1963 to 1982. Ian died in 1985. Funny Note: Ian was a blues piano man through and through. When the Stones would experiment with psychedelic music and anything else that wasn't Blues Rock N Roll or Boogie Woogie influenced, he refused to play on the track. Also, the L:ed Zeppelin song "Boogie With Stu" has Ian Stewart playing piano with Led Zeppelin. Hence the title. To be continued, Charlie

A song I think you'd really appreciate is "Let's Spend The Night Together" (1967), simply because of the way it manages to squeeze every drop that can possibly be squeezed out of the six diatonic chords.

Then I heard this very non-contemporary drum thing on my favorite rock radio channel, and I eventually just had to turn up the volume!! I think this is my all-time-favorite Stones track by now.
