Thank you so much for all of your hard work in compiling this documentary! I am 64 years old and loving every minute of this! Sadly, I was raised in a religious home where rock was considered the devils work, so I am a late bloomer in exploring the music of the Stones! I LOVE it and spend hours every evening finding all of their old videos and concert footage. Finding you and your documentaries is the icing on the cake for me. I will be watching them all! I will send you a donation as soon as I can as this is well worth it! Thank you again!

Watching these Steve docs in no particular chronological order and as an antidote to other 'challenges' always fires my imagination and recall. Firstly thanks for the Taj Mahal/Keith 'open tuning' explanation. We all know the Ry Cooder saga ( he stole - she stole) but that was another nugget of info. Like the Jack Nietzsche/Phil Spector connection. I always read Nietzsche's name in the album credits and wondered what he did apart from play keyboards. Another gem now understanding the arranger as a guide. And what a guide. Now for my tangents lol. Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron and Shelley are considered the finest poets of all time. They were all chronic laudanum purveyors ( users ). Their minds expanded transformed into achingly beautiful writing ( apparently). Make of that what you will. The war on drugs and youth counter culture was a direct result of anti war sentiment brewing among the youth of the day. Traditionalists and moralists were going to stamp that out pronto. ( 4 dead in Ohio among other brutal victimisation like Altamount). Look at all the musicians with FBI and 'criminal' records. Apart from Elvis who actually offered to be a narc for Nixon. Fact check me. Buddy Holly would never have done that lol. Ok last thing. Hypothetically if the world could safely micro dose would it be a better place? And thanks Steve for reminding people Brian was a great swimmer. I don't divide the Stones into 3 'eras'. I'm happy to have the lot as a whole. Peace from Oz monkeys ( or is that chimpanzees now) Whatever. Just stay the fark away from Elon Musk 😮 6:44

Brian was the Elmore James fan and knew about the slide and open tunings, I am sure sitting in their apt they shared a few tunings. Taj/Ry helped enhance it. thanks for sharing. A crazy decade, so much chaos and changes and war. This one compares some, but not musically. There is a true dividing line with the 3 guitarist changes, but yes, we should just lump in as one. I do not think of Some Girls as a new Era, just a change in sound. cheers

This 3-part documentary series represents an outstanding work of musical scholarship that should rank among the best and most informative documentaries on the Stones ever produced. It chronicles the creation of their 1969 album, Let It Bleed, exploring its uniqueness in the Stones' catalog, along with the vibrancy and artistry of the band at a transformative moment in their musical evolution, and as a cultural force and phenomenon. To my knowledge, no one has ever delved as deeply into the band's (or any band's) musical mojo-examining the group's inner-workings, song genesis, thematic, musical, and lyrical structure, music equipment and alternate guitar tunings used, recording technology and technique, musical influences and more, all the while honoring the many players and outright characters who contributed to the creation of this master work of recorded music. You've never seen a music documentary like this before. It is a fascinating stand-out work.

@@FlipSideCT Steve, new subscriber here and am making the rounds to your other videos. Real quick or maybe not, a cool experience to share this week was taking your suggestion in this series to revisit Ya-Ya's. (That you started the LIB series with Ya-Ya footage of Charlie and isolated drum tracks for Gimme Shelter told me I was in for something special.) Never disliked Ya'Ya's, but was always kinda perplexed by the mix- it's so fucking stark-especially next to the lushness of Let It Bleed and less the horn parts of later tours. Glyn Johns is the fucking man, don't get me wrong, but dare I say, I took this mix up Several notches by doubling, nearly tripling Wyman's presence. It's so heavy. It's so fat, so funky (especially on Sympathy, LWM, and the Chuck tunes) and because Bill is a real bass player and works in his register, there's no clash with any of the other players or the singer. It almost fills in like an organ part. Wyman is the fucking glue, mang, or at least a MUCH bigger part of the glue than the man has ever got his due for. Hey, drink a few beers, smoke a few joints-I highly recommend this experience. -The Best back at ya and everyone, Rob

Thanks a lot. I was a adolescent, a young teenager in the 1960's and could not quite understand what was going on and who was who. You exposés about other artists are quite instructive to me. It straightens out confusions i my mind that had been lurking there for ages. It took until 1972 until I had grown up enough to understand that something had happened in the decade before but the context and impact was not as clearcut as it is today. You won't believe it, but until 20 years ago, I had not known what had happened at Altamont concert in 1969 and its impact. Except for Sargeant Pepper I detested the Beatles, and still do, and I revered Bob Dylan and The Stones. That did not go down well in my environment.

Hi QDG, thanks for your comments and sharing. I also had plenty of confusion on the Stones timeline. Doing this helped me for sure also.

Camped down the night before, near the stage, at Hyde Park. Woke up in the morning surrounded by people. Everywhere you could see people. Up the trees, in the Serpentine. Part of breakfast was a tiny pill associated with Lucy ;) . The opening band was The Third Ear Band. Very avante garde. Ragas played on oboes and Cellos. They really could awaken ears. Stones came in by armoured car. Jagger in the white dress. The Shelley, the white butterflies in cardboard boxes. Then....they called them "The Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the world". I was not a particular fan before, liked their records, no more. My mind was changed. What masterpieces of creativity. For me, Midnight Rambler. When in the middle of the song, the tempo is masterfully and gradually slowed down. Jagger sitting on the stage: Jagger taking his belt off and playfully "whipping" his audiences reaching hands. Then again, the belt and the rhythm accelerates, the tempo regained and the big outro. I still think this is the Stones "Day in a life".

'Get Yer Yas Yas Out' (along with The Who's 'Live at Leeds') remains my favorite live albums of all time and 'Ya Yas', is easily my favorite Stones album. Their best album, and their best tour.

Seriously, this doc was incredible. Upon discovering, I watched all 3 consecutively, and I advise fans to do the same. The narration is superb! And the background tracks are amazing rarities and outtakes. Most Stones specials or interviews cover the SAME topics over, and over, and over, again-- such as their competition with The Beatles, the story of how M & K met at the Dartford station, how "Satisfaction" was written, details of the various drug busts, etc etc etc etc. These are all great stories, but imho they've been beaten to death. Instead this documentary is amazing at telling the interesting aspects of this Stones era. Details that REAL fans want to know, such as recording/production details, close musical influencers, and interactions (and MUCH more). And things that had a real impact on their music. I really love the fact that a variety of songs are covered- not just the "hits". Anyway, too much to name and enough of me. These 3 parts are better than most of the mainstream Stones specials out there. Blown away!!!

@@FlipSideCT thanks so much! I couldn't agree more. Thankfully some of the books out there go into some more detail. I've come to see the situation you comment on, as such: The Stones are kind of 2 bands in one (or more specifically--have become 2 bands, as of late). The first is the band most of the luke-warm fans know and like. This version of the band is the one the mass produced documentary material focuses on. In my opinon, this is also the band that currently tours and plays live. Don't get me wrong, it's incredible they still play live--and do some awesome versions. But they seem to abide by a formula when it comes to set list (maximizing the songs with the most interest). It's business, and makes sense. The second version of the band is the one that is passionate towards their influences, loves creating good material, and writes the songs that hardcore fans love. IE, the songs one wouldn't usually hear live. They would prb be happy playing in clubs. This second Stones iteration is the one that you cover in this documentary. I'm being wordy, but it's really the best way I can explain it all. Thanks! I will def check more of your channel out!

Ive recently found your page, and watching all the videos in random order as time allows. I could comment on all of them, but I will mercifully spare you and just leave a generic one here. Ive followed the Stones since the 60's, a voracious consumer of anything Stones related. In a pre-internet world, information was not as forthcoming as it is now. When speaking of the Stones, one needs to mention the times to give the watcher a feel for what was going on in that era. Younger people may find it boring, but it is necessary to put the content into context. I have found no way to verbally express the 'feel' of the 60's. One had to live it to fully understand it. In the USA, the Vietnam war raged in the background, Nixon, the riots, the assassinations, it was a tumultuous time ... Conversely, it was a renaissance of creativity and freedom of spirit. The air was electric! It's as if a cosmic vortex opened up and mixed all of these things together and magically disseminated it into the oxygen we breathed. As horrible as the world affairs were, there was a universal reawakening of souls as young people disavowed the uptight conservatism 50s and sought ways to radically distance themselves from any entity that might try to keep them there. Batman partaking of "Aftergrass" and the random old lady in Woolworth's who admonished the adolescent me to "put that back, they are ANIMALS!" as I gazed upon the newly released, and strangely octagonal shaped, Through the Past, Darkly, were typical. Beggars Banquet, Let it Bleed, and Sticky Fingers, leading up to Exile on Main Street are absolutely, other-worldly time capsules that perfectly reflect the times they were created in. Like a computer program might be today, they were a compact and concise compilation of all the zeitgeist of that era. An aural Cliff Notes version of everything that was going on. The good, bad and ugly. When I listen to them, I am taken back. They are the closest thing to the Wayback Machine there could ever be. Virtual reality before it was. You need to listen to them in order to understand what Exile was. The denouement of that turbulent era. Whatever glowing embers of the 60s that still remained were extinguished. The party is over. This is it ... Goats Head was the candle being blown out and the lights shut off. That quiet cup of coffee on the Sunday morning after the wildest and most eventful vacation of your entire life. A quite moment before going back to the mundane and prole toilage of Monday morning. You do a great job of instilling that feeling in me, anyway ... I hope younger readers may appreciate what you are doing.

Thank you LWM for your generous contribution to The Stones and the times. well said. It is a challenge to be able to inject the exact feelings that The Stones had on their plate throughout the years during their recordings. I did feel I delivered the best I can to help bring that to back to life and it seems as though many viewers felt the same. My channel is dedicated to the "the turn on" and getting folks exposed to an area other then mainstream. There are many that take the ride with me, but I would really hope there were much more. I do see just a handful of young ones at record stores and shows, but not enough to carry any torch, which is, as you pointed out a "hope" the word can spread, and not just with my channel. thanks for your input! cheers

@@FlipSideCT I agree. I’m afraid (and I understand only too well) that those late 60’s/70’s drugs were powerful. I’ve learnt that Brian used barbiturates a lot latterly. These can simply put one out of the game, and one misusing barbs makes the user literally good for nothing- let alone write music. They were plentiful and actually, Tuinal etc. weren’t even illegal until early 80’s. This perhaps along with growing resentment may have well mucked Brian’s head up. Micks also quoted as saying Brian was taking the wrong type of drugs. Incidentally, it’s interesting to note that not much is said about his physical health and regular seizures. Just a thought. I agree with you that the stones seemed to flourish following Brian leaving - and especially with Mick Taylor’s input. It’s all a matter of individual tastes and a point of view though.

You are a true fan(atic) like many of us but I can say without jealousy that I learned things in both series. The details, and especially the photos/film you found are not run of the mill, overused mainstream material but hidden and unseen gems even for those of us who aren’t your typical fans (and are sick of hearing the old warhorse at concerts). I commend you for your deep dives. You offered fans a master class. The quality of your work felt like it could be taught at the university level and you would be a PhD. You are an archivist and during the last part of the Goat’s Head Soup series, I sat mesmerized by the books on the shelves behind you. We have many of the same titles! You speak to me like the Stones’ music does. As an aside: I hope you have been able to download the 3 CD collection (in jpg format) from about a month ago of unreleased studio outtakes, mainly from the 70s and 80s. I was astonished at how good the songs are and wish they had been put out for consumers. The tracks seem fully finished and not works in progress although I'm sure someone with more musical knowledge might feel they could be polished up. I tip my hat to you.

While his focus is currently on newer music, bands, he is our age and knows it all. Overall I think the Stones are so underrated. People including critics don't appreciate their brilliance and setting new trends. Look at how deep their lyrics were in the 60s. They were kids writing timeless songs. They push the boundaries for tours and what is expected with giant screens, lighting, B stages, etc. I am on the daily "Undercover" mailing and have been for likely 2 decades. But I heard about your LIB series on Keno's "It's a Gas Gas Gas" website which I think I have also been going to for over 2 decades. He was effusive in his recommendation of your series. Between the two, I recall organizing a trading ring for those of us who wanted the full set of those Satanic Majesties collector cards that came in the SACD releases by ABKCO in the early 2000s. That was quite a project. I'm glad you do have the recently released outtakes. They really blew me away with the writing quality. You can definitely tell the eras they were from. The band's sound changed so much with Ronnie, but each of the eras is defined by who was on guitar besides Keef. The song that stood out for me the most was on CD1, "Part of the Night". WOW, it almost didn't sound like them. You are far more invested in records than me. In some ways I am so glad they came back, for others to have the same thrill we did in searching through bins at record stores and the romanticism of being able to open them and see the artwork and lyrics. When CDs came along, there was some of that. I was pissed when digital overtook that and came with no packaging; I LOVED learning about where it was recorded, who did what, etc. You can't find that info anywhere anymore, and it sucks! But the ship has sailed for me with regard to records. I do understand how binary rounds notes up or down, and that quality is lost but I'm not able to tell the difference. And I like the space saving and immediacy that digital downloads offer so I won't be going back to buying vinyl. As a caveat though, when it comes to the Stones, they are the ony band I will buy CDs for as long as I can. I want something tactile in my hands for them. Tx again, Kathy

@@kathleenwilliamson5151 Whoa! what a wonderful commentary here. You surely get it all, and on the same path as me. It is truly amazing the psyche of people, and how some click and same groove, and others are just 'no chemistry'.....It could be a voice / topic / delivery / consistency that attracts or repels someone. I do not hear Ray Romano, but it is a lol. I did extremely well in NJ in college Radio 80-83, very similar format and knowledge based shows. A bit more Punky/New Wave/Alt. I had many thoughts run past me, Pod casts are great, but you have to be consistent with providing a show on a regular basis, I enjoy things at my pace. LIVE YT/ZOOM sessions with a few other like minded folks. I can not do Patreon, as I play copy written music. That Exhibitionism was truly fantastic, I had to go myself, but enjoyed it so much. One thing if you are a fan, check out Why Lou is Lou vid I made, or Brian Eno, or the Punk vid. To deliver these takes so much focus and dedication and that is the only way I work.....which means time is needed. It is exhausting overall, but a blast. Understand you music media choice......the vinyl is magical and I do know/hear the quality differences which is a big reason for me. Love the crispness of a CD, but it lacks. cheers steve

This notion of "BEST album" doesn't work for the Stones, to many greats ones, I take it all and listen one or another period with the same pleasure.
@FlipSideCT3 жыл бұрын
That works. Sure, There are songs that move you more on other albums. This album overall has an emotional movement and feeling for every second of a song in it. That is what is meant by best. Not an ounce of boredom.....excitement every second. I get it you have a different way to perceive and view this topic.

I frickin LOVE THIS ALBUM! Beggar’s Banquet was really good, but rarely listen to it in its entirety! This album was different! It was a sad time too, they had to dump Brian! He was sadly useless on this album, and contributes barely anything! Keith really took the helm here and played nearly all the guitars, both rhythm and and lead! He created some of the best Stones songs here! Gimme Shelter, You Can’t Always Get What You Want, the title track, Midnight Rambler, Monkey Man, (a personal favorite, although not a big hit, and don’t know if they ever played it in concerts)! Also Country Honk, an early version which escorted Mick Taylor in and redone as the classic Honkey Tonk Women! Released as a single before this album was released! This also marked the time when the Stones really differentiated them selves from the Beatles, (despite the similarity of the title with Let it Be)! As far as the music went, it sounded nothing like the Beatles! They truly defined their own identity with this album! Summing it all up, I was loving Keith’s job on the guitars. Not the best lead player, but he served up the goods here!!
