    The Rolling Stones did start in the sixties, and they were most influential and popular during the sixties and the seventies, so much so that when I was in high school in the late seventies, if the Rolling Stones came to town, not only would lots of the students in school go to the show, but some of the teachers would, too. They were a big deal. When I was a kid in the sixties and seventies, there were two Rolling Stones songs that seemed like the band's signature songs, though they had lots of other hits. Those two songs were "Satisfaction" from 1965, which you've already done, and "It's Only Rock'n'Roll" from 1974, which you might do sometime in the future.

      @keef7224 Год назад +27

      I don’t think his last name was actually Flash. From what I read, he was fiddling about in the garden outside and Mick asked “who’s that?”and Keith said something like “Oh that’s just old Jack…jumping Jack” and then started writing a song about him and Mick added the Flash part. But I could be mistaken

      According to Keith Richards later statements, Jack was the name of his gardener at the time. Since "Jack" was a slang term for heroin in English at the time, not only the press suspected that the title had a connection to heroin consumption. Mick Jagger himself explained to Rolling Stone magazine in 1995 that the text was "just a metaphor for him to get out of all the drug stuff". I think there is plenty of room for everyone to choose their own version.

    You have no idea what an emotional reaction greeted this song when it was released in 1968. The Stones had been in what was regarded as a fallow period, with their most recent album, "Their Satanic Majesties' Request" viewed as a rather tepid and indecipherable response to the Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band." The country was also in the midst of a traumatic period, with the Tet Offensive shocking America into the realization that Vietnam was a true quagmire, President Johnson announcing he would not run again as a result, Martin Luther King Jr. being assassinated and cities erupting in race riots...and that was all before June 6, when Robert Kennedy was also assassinated. Then suddenly this song appeared on the radio, and it was like a breath of fresh air -- the Stones' return to form. Many people felt a grateful sense of relief to hear an uptempo, hopeful rocker from the Stones.

  • @jbstonesfan

    The Stones truly define rock and roll. They have lasted 6 decades because of their ability to remain true to their roots while still experimenting from country to funk. They have never been as popular to the casual pop or heavy metal fan, but are an iconic band that almost everyone knows.

    I’m so glad you did the lyric version. Whoopi Goldberg did a movie in the 80’s with the same title, and one of the funniest scenes is when she’s listening to the song and trying to figure out what he’s saying. It’s hilarious and a movie you should definitely check out.

    This was the sound of a generation. Constant, constant radio play for decades. Young people have no idea how much people listened to some of these songs when they were the cutting edge. NOTHING is played like that to people anymore. Great, great Mick Jagger performance is "Brown Sugar" that they did live on The Top of the Pops. As legendary a live performance as you will see. Was done pretty soon after the release (I think ) and Mick is absolutely on top of his game.

  • @brt5273
    @brt5273 Год назад +42

    I think the context is that no matter how crazy or tragic your life, it all contributes to who you are, so you might as well own it and be empowered by it. The lyrics reference being beaten down, cut down, having a spike driven through the head, left for dead but the character singing rises again and again, with a superpower/mythic sort of name. "it's a gas" is kind of like "it's a trip" or a "ride" or a "thrill" and can be good and bad but seems consistently to reference intensity of experience. Makes me think of that old saying, "If you can walk away from a (airplane) landing, it's a good landing." I love the great beat, guitar licks and Mick's voice...which he uses like an instrument... while I groove along, identifying and feeling empowered by it all.

    "Jumpin' Jack Flash" was the 21st single by The Rolling Stones to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking @ #3 for 3 weeks in the summer of 1968. 2 records kept "JJF" from reaching #1 or at least #2: 1) Burt Bacharach & Hal David's "This Guy's In Love With You" by Herb Alpert followed by 2) "Grazing in the Grass" by Hugh Masekela. In the Rolling Stones discography, "JJF" was preceded by "She's A Rainbow" (#25/ 1967-68) and followed by "Street Fighting Man" (#48/1968). "JJF" was another of the Stones' great dance records, later covered by Aretha Franklin in 1986 peaking @ #25 on the Pop chart, #20 on the R&B/Soul chart & #33 on the Dance chart. Aretha's cover was produced by none other than Keith Richards and was the title song for the movie starring Whoopi Goldberg.

I still prefer early Stones, before they started to write their own material. In the UK, early teens, all those blues songs were something I never heard before and the Stones blew me away with their covers. Still remember the first time I heard 'Walking The Dog'. Wow!

    In the 60’s, the Beatles were the “Good Boys” and the Rolling Stones were the “Bad Boys” of Rock-n-Roll. Similar to today, many fans were divided into camps. You were either a Beatles fan or a Stones fan. Few would admit to liking both. As a kid, I remember hippies arguing over which band was better. Whenever they would ask my opinion (at 5yrs old) of who I liked better, I would tell them THE MOODY BLUES and sit back and watch the fireworks. Yeah, even back then I might have been a bit of a little sh*t ! 😂

    "Jumpin' Jack Flash" is a song by the English rock band the Rolling Stones, released as a non-album single in 1968. Called "supernatural Delta blues by way of Swinging London" by Rolling Stone magazine, the song was perceived by some as the band's return to their blues roots after the baroque pop and psychedelia heard on their preceding albums Aftermath (1966), Between the Buttons (1967) and especially Their Satanic Majesties Request (1967). One of the group's most popular and recognisable songs, it has featured in films and been covered by numerous performers, notably Thelma Houston, Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, Peter Frampton, Johnny Winter, Leon Russell and Alex Chilton. To date, it is the band's most-performed song: they have played it over 1,100 times in concert.
    It is one of their most popular songs, and it is on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list. It is also, according to Acclaimed Music, the 77th-best-ranked song on critics' all-time lists.
    Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, recording on "Jumpin' Jack Flash" began during the Beggars Banquet sessions of 1968. Regarding the song's distinctive sound, guitarist Richards has said:
    I used a Gibson Hummingbird acoustic tuned to open D, six string. Open D or open E, which is the same thing - same intervals - but it would be slackened down some for D. Then there was a capo on it, to get that really tight sound. And there was another guitar over the top of that, but tuned to Nashville tuning. I learned that from somebody in George Jones' band in San Antonio in 1964. The high-strung guitar was an acoustic, too. Both acoustics were put through a Philips cassette recorder. Just jam the mic right in the guitar and play it back through an extension speaker.
    Richards has stated that he and Jagger wrote the lyrics while staying at Richards' country house, when they were awoken one morning by the clumping footsteps of his gardener Jack Dyer walking past the window. Surprised, Jagger asked what it was, and Richards responded: "Oh, that's Jack - that's jumpin' Jack." The lyrics evolved from there. Humanities scholar Camille Paglia[10] speculated that the song's lyrics might have been partly inspired by William Blake's poem "The Mental Traveller": "She binds iron thorns around his head / And pierces both his hands and feet / And cuts his heart out of his side / To make it feel both cold & heat."
    Jagger said in a 1995 interview with Rolling Stone that the song arose "out of all the acid of Satanic Majesties. It's about having a hard time and getting out. Just a metaphor for getting out of all the acid things."[11] And in a 1968 interview, Brian Jones described it as "getting back to ... the funky, essential essence" following the psychedelia of Their Satanic Majesties Request.
    In his autobiography Stone Alone, Bill Wyman has said that he came up with the song's distinctive main guitar riff, working on it with Brian Jones and Charlie Watts before it was ultimately credited to Jagger and Richards.[12] In Rolling with the Stones, Wyman credits Jagger with vocals, Richards with guitar and bass guitar, Jones with guitar, Watts with drums and himself with organ on the track with producer Jimmy Miller adding backing vocals.
    According to the book Keith Richards: The Biography by Victor Bockris, the line "I was born in a crossfire hurricane", was written by Richards, and refers to his being born amid the bombing and air raid sirens of Dartford, England, in 1943 during World War II.

And that "boy band" concept itself wasn't really a "thing" or term until a couple of decades after the Beatles broke up at least. The Beatles created themselves and gradually payed their dues in Liverpool/Cavern Club/Hamburg etc. well before starting to get famous.

    This is the Stones of 1968, right at the beginning of their imperial period. They had just finished with their brief foray into psychedelia and turned back to blues based rock and roll, but with a harder edge and more swagger. This was still the Stones' original line up.
    The '60's weren't the beginning of rock and roll. It was the beginning of rock, thanks to the Stones, Dylan and The Who, but rock 'n' roll was born in the 1950's with Elvis Presley, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis and others.

They then started to make up the lyrics around the name when Mick added the word Flash, the song became a metaphor for acid, the rest is history.

    Thanks for that great reaction and all of your reactions. You are a beautiful couple with a lot of enthusiasm and add so much to these songs.
    I’m sure many people have already written this, but “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” is kind of a “love song” to nitrous oxide, aka “laughing gas” (used by dentists a lot, or at least it used to be), and became a recreational drug.
    But you are also correct: lots of times, including here, the “original” meaning of the lyrics is not as important as what you get out of it as part of the entire experience of the song.
    Many times, what the songwriter intended is not what many, sometimes even most people, get out of it.
    For example, the classic song by The Police, “Every Breath You Take”, has come to be embraced by so many people as a romantic love song. People have it played at their weddings and receptions as “our song”.
    But Sting, who wrote it, said it’s about a stalker!
    Doesn’t matter. It’s art. Art is not science. Science is either true or not. Art is what it means to the person who experiences it.
    Thanks again. Keep up the good work.
    Oh, and PS, if you want to react to an interesting, if dark (spoiler: a man got knifed to death by The Hells Angels, who were serving as concert security, being paid in beer! Seriously!), Rolling Stones documentary of a concert performance, check out “Gimme Shelter”, which was a filming of a free concert at the Altamont Speedway.
    But there are better Rolling Stones concerts to watch just for fun (although there are some good performances in Gimme Shelter).
    And that song on the original studio recording, “Gimme Shelter”, might be my favorite Rolling Stones song.
    If you want to check out another country rock song they did, check out “Wild Horses”, and/or “Dead Flowers”. Both ballads and another side of the Stones.

    I think it's common that groups come up with music they like, then put lyrics on it. With rock music especially, lyrics are sometimes chosen as a sound element rather than for meaning, and we go crazy trying to figure out what the song is about. This song seems to me to be a long list of the things the singer went through, and he keeps outdoing the horrors he went through before. But it always comes down to the sound.
    I mean, what is a 'crossfire hurricane?'
    I especially liked the bass in this song, and how it became a voice of harmony in 'but it's all right now.'
