[@artysanmobile]

Her Satanic Majesty’s Request has always been my favorite Rolling Stones album. I have met exactly zero people who agree with me.

[@Lightw81]

I think they thought they had to go psychedelic, even though their hearts weren't in it. When there was a backlash and a resurgence of "rock 'n' roll" the following year they breathed a long sigh of relief and went on to play variations on the same theme for the next fifty-odd years.

[@artysanmobile]

@@Lightw81 I doubt the RS ever felt compelled to follow any trend. It was Brian’s last gasp and it was simply magnificent. I’m aware of the ridiculous critic’s narrative about “competing with Sgt. Pepper’s.” Sorry, but things don’t work that way at the dizzying heights of pop occupied by those two groups. To this day, Satanic Majesties Request is home to a number of the Stones’ most iconic recordings and at the time it was breathtaking, needing no critical justification. Further, it should be obvious they were not currying favor with the critics in any way with Majesties, which sailed right over the simpleton heads of the pop press. Creatively, they were firing on all cylinders and the production was just magical. I do remember Let It Bleed was a cohesive masterwork from the first drop of the needle, never forgetting the impact it made on my 14 year old brain. But even then, the far more imaginative Majesties pulled me back over and over.

Exactly nick rice. It was and still is a brilliant album. I got alone of the album about 35 years ago and it was in bad nick really bad. I asked my friend what happend to this album its in bad nick. Crackling none stop, but i still managed to hear it despite the state of it and after a few times i just thought i need to buy that its a great album. And then when i had the brand knew album it was even better, and 'shes a rainbow' and the way it goes into 'the lantern' is just brilliant. Side 2 really brings it on, side 1 is great too and side 2 just makes it magic. It was there best album up until 1967 imo, its so underated maybe becouse it seems a dark drug induced album and it was 1967, when it brilliantly goes into 'the lantern' after the brilliant 'shes a rainbow' its a stroke of pure genius, its like london in 1905 and its dark and foggy with druncken men sleeping up alleys. With no lantern, i remember in 1987 thincking then saying this albums so good a cant stop playing it, for about 3 month i played it every day. I already liked the stones big time but this album just made me buy alot of there big albums in the 1960s. It was the first stones album i bought, i cant thinck of an album that struck me as fast as this one. Then 6 months later i had about 7 of there albums, i didnt like there music after 1969 after brian jones died i just thought thats not the stones, except for 'exile on main street'. I never bought 1 single stones album from the 70s, 80s 90s and so on. But my favourite stones album is 'Get Yer Ya Yas Out' from 1970 and its a live album and in a class of its own. Its a huge stones album and is brilliant from start to finish and the guitar solo''s in it are sublime.

An incredibly underrated album that has finally gotten the recognition it so richly deserves. Probably the last time Brian made a significant contribution. Such an amazing musician, such a great intellects. He took Firsts on 5 A-levels -- a ticket to Oxbridge if he hadn't knocked some girl up already (I think MJ had 3 Firsts). An incredible loss. The Stones occasionally returned to the esoteric experimentalism seen on Majesties in tracks like Exile's "I Just Want to See His Face", Goat's Head's Soup "Can You Hear the Music", and Steel Wheels "Continental Drift" (which I see as a last nod to Brian) There's a misunderstanding that Keef and Mick 'fired' Brian before the 1969 tour. According to Keef what went down is that they went down to visit him, told them that the record label was pressuring them to go on tour, and asked Brian if he felt up to it. Brian said no. They assured him that he was still a member of the band (after all, he founded it), and thus began the search for a replacement guitarist for the tour alone. The first person they asked was Jimmy Page, only Zeppelin was really starting to take off. I believe Page was the one who recommended John Mayall's 19 year-old prodigy Mick Taylor. After Taylor decided to run away to save his life, the Stones again asked Page to fill in for the 1975 tour but he couldn't since Zep was touring all that year. Enter Ronnie Wood. Not a virtuoso like Page or Taylor but he fit. Today Taylor, a childhood friend of Ronnie's, considers leaving the Stones the biggest mistake of his life.

I'm pretty sure it was Jeff Beck who was asked to join in '69 and '75 . I've never heard of Page being asked to join, seems kind of unlikely

I like Satantic Magisties Request as the best Stones album. What’s not to like. The cover art with The Beatles. The unsolvable maze inside. Brian Jones still a full time, contributing member. Bill Wyman’s song. Nicky Hopkins all over it. And lastly…sing this song altogether (see what happens!). Couldn’t do this with Cd or downloading, but back in the day, all our turntables could play 16 rpm’s, 33 & 1/3, 45 rpm’s and 78 rpms. So, the song as it is, is played at 33 &1/3. But played at 45, and especially at 78, what you hear ( aka See What Happens), is the first Rolling Stones Christmas song… an instrumental version of “We wish you a Merry Christmas”! Unless you have a turntable that you can change the speed on, you’re just going to have to take my word on it.

Perhaps one of the more magical time spans that was, in the fairy tale year for music of 1967. The same year I discovered vinyl 45 rpm records and began purchasing them. One of my first 45s was the Stones’ single “Dandelion/We Love You,” which almost defines this year for me, with its psychedelia and Middle Eastern influences. This 45 charted well on both sides of the pond, with “Dandelion” in the States and “We Love You” in the UK. The Stones have never performed either number in concert, and I wonder why. Perhaps a future episode of your series could be devoted to this topic.

The way side 2 starts with 'Shes a Rainbow' then the way it goes into 'The 'Lantern' is brilliant and '2000 Light Years From Home' side 1 is good to but side 2 just brings it on. Its a great album its in my top 4 stones studio albums. The first time i heard it i went out the next day and bought it. It just struck me as brilliant becouse i played side 2 first and when i heard shes a rainbow i though i must buy that. Thats different class and maybe there best album up to then. I couldnt thinck of one before that was better. Then 'Beggars Banquet' was maybe even better a year later in 1968 then 'Let It Bleed' was brilliant, but Beggers Banquet has to be there best 1960s album that has at least 6 brilliant songs on it. 'Thier Satanic Majesties Request' has at least 6 brilliant songs on it. A could just imagine how great that album was in 1967 it was perfect for that time, with the brilliant 'Citadel' really starting it off although its the second song on side 1. Tbh the first song has you wondering where the album is going and what will it be like. But 'The Lantern' has that dark foggy aproach to it as if you're back in time 120 years ago, it is a stroke of genius strait after 'Shes A Rainbow' When brian jones died i didnt like there music after that in 1969. Except 'exile on main street' 'Their Satanic Majesties Request' might not be as good as sgt peppers but sgt peppers isnt all great, there are stuff on it that i like, but whats good is brilliant and whats bad is really bad. But am a stones man. My favourite stones album is 'Get Yer Ya Yas Out' wich is a live album from 1970. Its a 12 out of 10. Brilliant from start to finish plus the music is top drawer, thats why its my no.1 and so many others. Get it and listen to it, and you wont look back.

I am glad that Glyn Jones spoke out against bullfighting. You don't have to see one to know that it is the ritual torture killing of an innocent animal. Brian Jones comparing it to a Greek tragedy is just arty farty BS. I don't think Marianne Faithful's comment about nature being at the mercy of mankind is any sort of defense. Would they be saying this if human beings were being ritually tortured to death? What if someone had decided to torture them to death in a ring for the entertainment of cheering spectators? Would they use the same defence of bear baiting, bull baiting and dog fighting were legal in this country? One good thing which has come from Covid is that it stopped bullfighting and these bull torture rituals. I hope it ends completely. Remember, those who built the Titanic believed that they were superior to nature and look what happened to them.

[@CosmicHippopotamus]

I’m no fan of cockfighting or bullfighting but I think it’s a bit hypocritical for people who eat factory farmed animals to claim that they are morally superior to those who watch bullfighting and cockfighting. The animals that participate in those “sports” live better lives than the ones whose flesh we “so fancifully fry.” I’m not saying you fall into that category. You could very well be in my camp. I’m just putting it out there for people who criticize other cultures without self-reflection.

[@susangavaghan]

@@CosmicHippopotamus Well, that is to say that because people in this country eat factory farmed meat, we may as well bring back bear baiting, bull baiting, cock fighting and dog fighting. We may as well have no animal protection laws nor an RSPCA and animal rescues. I am a vegan so I am not guilty of eating factory farmed meat. However, I recognize there is a difference between people who are entertained by watching animals suffer and those who buy factory farmed meat at a supermarket because they enjoy eating meat and do not see how the factory farmed animals have suffered. There are different levels of awareness of animal abuse. No doubt people who do consume factory farmed meat have pets they love and would be horrified at the thought of any cruelty towards them. Such people have compassion. The guy who in the video who was speaking out against bullfighting may well have been a meat eater. However, he had compassion. People who actually derive pleasure from inflicting pain on animals are in a different category. They have no compassion. Many murderers began harming animals first such as the James Bulger murderers, Ian Huntley and Ian Brady to name but a few. That being said, I would, of course, love to see factory farmed banned completely.

[@lyricberlin]

@@susangavaghan too bad vegans aren't passionate about children that are hungry getting fed.

[@susangavaghan]

@@lyricberlin Well, grain from third world countries is taken to feed animals which are killed to produce meat for western society. A plant based diet is a much better use of the earth's resources and will feed far more people. It is better for animals, the planet and human health. Bullfighting makes no money. Eighty three percent of the Spanish people are opposed to it and do not attend bullfights. A female activist attended a bullfight to film the cruelty when she was given a free ticket. It was revealed that only a quarter of the bullring was full, even with free tickets given. This activist ran into the ring at the end to comfort the dying bull. The Spanish government prop up the bullfighting industry with massive subsidies. During the pandemic they wanted subsidies because they were unable to continue with their animal torture activities. This was denied. I once attended a demonstration against bullfighting in Spain. A woman who was on the demonstration told me that she had a disabled son and was unable to get help from the government to care for him, while bullfighting received millions. So as you are so concerned about children I am sure you will agree that the money given to bullfighting would be better spent on children. Also, young children are taken to watch this torture. This is child abuse. Children love animals. This is destroying their innocence and desensitizing them to cruelty and violence. There is evidence that children have suffered permanent mental damage as a result. I find it strange that the same people who take children to watch bullfights will celebrate Christmas. The nativity scene includes an ox and ass - the ox is virtually the same animal as a bull. This creature is included in the scene where Jesus was born, yet these people think it is fine to torture it to death. As far as I am concerned these people cannot be Christians while they do this.

'Plastic Ukulele 3:35 'Gompers' 5:10-15 'On With The Show,' 'Church & Relgion' 2000 Man, perhaps. My God, give the man a puzzle and he asks you to put the pieces together for him? This video, to me at least, represents the last album Brian Jones had a real interest in the musical content. "Psychedelic era' didn't last long in Great Britain as it was a Laurel Canyon creation. For Grateful Dead fans, it never ended, but did for people with enough sense not to lose their minds on that trash.Spiking the water at Woodstock or what happened to Peter Green in Germany are some unfortunate victims of 'mind control' attempts by the dark side.

In 1967 Keith says, "someone give me an E". That cat always was ahead of the times.

[@TroglodyteDiner]

While Jagger wrote Sympathy (with help from the amazing Marianne, I suspect), if you can make it through Godard's ponderous 1+1 you'll notice how the song is completely transformed the minute Keef entered the studio. Brian had disintegrated so badly by the summer of '68 that he was no condition to record. The put him aside in a booth and his tracks were not included in the final mix. His major contribution was the slide on No Expectations for which we will always love him!

[@johnnyhartley4330]

@@TroglodyteDiner I don't know, with the Stones there was a lot of Jagger and Richard led revisionism to minimise the contribution of Brian Jones, as they wanted to justify their decision to kick him out of the band he had set up in the first place, but his tracks were included, as he contributes to every track on the album except the final two, playing sitar and tanpura on "Street Fighting Man", slide guitar on "No Expectations", acoustic guitar on "Parachute Woman", harmonica on "Parachute Woman", "Dear Doctor" and "Prodigal Son", and Mellotron on "Jigsaw Puzzle" and "Stray Cat Blues". He looked a total mess on Rock n Roll Circus, making a minimal contribution there, but overall he did more in the latter recording he was involved with than he is generally given credit for.

I never really understood the Brian Jones dynamic within The Rolling Stones. I always thought Brian wanted the group as sort of blues purists and not part of the Pop Phenomenon. Yet his musical talents seem to lie with the pop experimentation of the times. It seemed to me the more Brian drifted away from the band, the more the band got serious with blues/rock and away from pop music. Maybe I'm totally wrong.

[@NewFalconerRecords]

[@lonedrone]

7:00 Aber im Ernst.... es gibt auch noch andere Einstellungen von dieser Aufnahme, fast identisch, auf denen es aber noch deutlicher so wirkt als wären die vier eine kompakte starke Einheit, und Brian wirkt iwie. da neben bei stehend, oder aussen vor. So wie auch viele damals in den 60er Jahren schon eine Art Omen darin sahen, das auf dem Cover des Albums "Flowers", auf dem alle Stones als eine Blume dargestellt sind, Brian's Blume ohne Blätter dargestellt wurde. Diese Trennlinie, die sich nach und nach im Werdegang der Stones zwischen ihnen und Brian durch unzählige kleine Situationen auftat, führte letztendlich zum Bruch mit den Stones. Was leider zu selten erwähnt wird, Brian hatte von klein auf mit einem chronischem Asthma zu tun. Von jungen Jahren an, musste er ständig einen Asthma Inhalator bei sich haben, wenn er plötzlich Atemnot hatte. Das klingt jetzt erst Mal seltsam wenn man weiß, mit welcher Gedankenlosigkeit Brian alles mögliche immer stärker konsumierte, desto mehr Mick ohne böse Absicht dieses höllische Karrieretempo vorlegte, aber es war mmn. dieses Asthma, das Brian dann bei dieser Art von Drogenmissbrauch ausbremste. Schon bevor er die Stones kannte, berichteten Freunde Brian's aus früheren Jahren Bill Wyman von Vorfällen, wo er bei einem befreundeten Pärchen übernachtet hatte, und sie morgens wach wurden, weil Brian nur noch tiefatmend auf der Couch lag und fast am ersticken war. Der Freund hat sich Brian's Schlüssel gesucht und hat schnell aus Brian's Wohnung den Inhalator geholt. Diesen Zustand trug Brian quasi immer mit sich herum, verschlimmerte ihn noch durch kopflosen Umgang mit allem was ihm in die Hände kam, und entfernte sich mental dadurch immer mehr von den anderen. Deshalb tun mir die Bilder von Brian aus dem "We Love you" Video leid. Aber ich bin den Stones nicht böse, sie waren wie sie waren, und haben Brian auch nie vergessen.
