Sweet Virginia… you have to do this one again live version is best if only for Bobby Keyes sax. Waiting in a Friend , completely different from the previous two but classic Stones

    Keith Richards started developing this song in late 1966, but had a hard time getting the sound he was after. The breakthrough came when he bought a Philips cassette recorder and realized he could get a dry, crisp sound by playing his acoustic guitar (a Gibson Hummingbird) into it, which he could then distort by playing it back through a speaker and into a studio recorder. The only electric instrument on the entire song is the bass.

    Beggars Banquet was a big change in direction for the Stones. They went into more of a rock/blues rock direction with a lot of their songs. As others have mentioned, this and the next three albums were all great and were kind of their own 'era' - Sticky Fingers will always be my personal favorite. I love the earlier stuff and this period equally. As for another song, stick with this album and try 'Stay Cat Blues' - definitely the 'new' Stones sound on that song. Great stuff.

    This song deals with civil unrest in Europe and America in 1968. There were student riots in London and Paris, and protests in America over the Vietnam War. The specific event that led Mick Jagger to write the lyric was a demonstration at Grosvenor Square in London on March 17, 1968. Jagger (along with Vanessa Redgrave), joined an estimated 25,000 protesters in condemning the Vietnam War.
    The demonstrators marched to the American embassy, where the protest turned violent. Mounted police charged the crowd, which responded by throwing rocks and smoke bombs. About 200 people were taken to the hospital and another 246 arrested. Jagger didn't make it to the embassy: before the protest turned violent, he abandoned it, returning to his home in nearby Cheyne Walk. Jagger realized that his celebrity was a hindrance to the protest, as his presence distracted from the cause.

    Scott, thanks for the request, Beggar's Banquet is one of my two desert isle albums, Music From Big Pink is the other. Lee, The Stones were known as rock's bad boys well before 1968. While The Beatles were cranking out early song, The Stones were too. Songs like Satisfaction (about sex), Get Off of My Cloud (drugs), Mother's Little Helper (mothers taking pills to get thru the day), they were bad boys going way back. And on this album, Stray Cat Blues tackles a theme that probably couldn't get recorded today. And that video was before music videos were invented. Great great song!!!

    And it wasn’t actually the last album Brian played on. It was the last full album he played on. He does play on 2 tracks on Let It Bleed, as he was still with the band for most of that album's recording.

    The best Stones music is barely-controlled chaos, and there’s a lot on ‘Beggars
    Banquet’. The great Nicky Hopkins is all over the album. His simple piano at the end keeps the chaos from spinning out of bounds. Keith Richards got the guitar sound from multitracking acoustic guitars through a cheap portable cassette recorder. Next? “Can’t You Hear Me knocking” if you haven’t done it or, from this album, “Stray Cat Blues”, a filthy song they’d never make today, which Jagger said the riff which begins the song was taken straight from The Velvet Underground’s “Heroin”. You know, the USA, although known for capitalism and economic freedom, used to break up monopolies, Republicans and Democrats alike. Teddy Roosevelt was a wealthy Republican who broke up monopolies and started the national park system. Can you even imagine that today? The U.S. government broke up the railroads, Bell Telephone (AT&T), Standard Oil, American Tobacco, U.S. Steel,… AT&T was broken up in 1982, when I was in high school. When the Supreme Court ruled that corporations were people and you couldn’t limit their political contributions, they quit breaking them up, it seems. Amazon would never have been allowed to keep its monopoly even 40 or 50 years ago.

    Seeing Mick by himself reminds me of his solo performance away from his Stones’ mates when starred in the film, “Performance.” An awesome song from this film is, “Memo From Turner” It features Ry Cooder on slide guitar. ruclips.net/video/lP0zsWupANs/видео.html
    Perhaps more interesting is this video that uses a test recording of the song roughly laid over the film scene. What’s interesting about this is that Steve Winwood plays all the backing instruments with Jim Capaldi on drums (half of the band, “Traffic”). ruclips.net/video/3ggXfUVdwSs/видео.html
