    I've got your reactions figured out! Randomly note an instrument (the keys! the guitar! the bass!) and a technique (the harmonies! the reverb!), then add meaningless bullshit commentary using big words (the musicality! the composition!). Rinse. Repeat! You could automate this shit and save everyone a lot of time.

      Formulaic. Such As these comments, I figured it out! Individuals find such an issue with my content yet continue to view it. Lol quite ambivalent and contradictious my friend. Well if my automated videos and meaningless verbose as you describe bothers you as such then I'm quite sure you can find other channels that accommodate your desires. But I get it, man, you're used to channels being devoid of any substance that you conflate my genuine reactions with the utter nonsense you conform to. DO yourself a favor if you don't enjoy it, it's a simple concept. DON'T WATCH. Good day. These comments man you could automate this shit and spare others the time.

      There is a video out there, with isolated vocals for Gimme Shelter. When Merry Clayton's vocal comes back in the middle, you can hear her voice cracking, and guys in the background saying whoa. I never noticed it, until listening to the isolated vocal tracks. Pretty cool they left the reactions to her voice cracking, in the final mix.

    Listen closely in the middle when Merry Clayton sings the part, "Rape, Murder, It's just a shot away". On the third time through singing that, her voice crackles on the word Murder. If you listen close enough, you can hear Mick Jagger react to that by saying, "Whoo!" in the background. Clearly he was very impressed with her voice and the effort she put into singing.

    Great review. I'm glad you're dipping into the Stones. When this came out at the end of the '60s there seemed to be violence everywhere.. Assassinations, riots, protests that became violent, etc. Really all over the world and even at the Stones infamous free concert at Altamont Speedway, where a man was shot right in front of the stage while the Stones were playing.

  • @benabel7326
    @benabel7326 3 года назад +5

    As some others may have said, while recording this song the band realised something was missing and needed a female voice. It was 2 am and they tried a few other singers and either found no answer or they weren't interested at that time.
    Merry Clayton was 8 months pregnant but agreed to come in. She gave the vocal performance of a life time in one take and went back home to bed. Unfortunately she woke up at 6am in pain, rushed to the hospital only to find her unborn baby was dead.

    Nice reaction! Song is all about the feels of the time. In addition to the war, civil right riots etc that were raging, the cold war had been a constant threat for decades, and the nuclear proliferation that came along with it. Kids were routinely drilled at school for potential bombings. I think this track captures the edginess of the time pretty well and is kind of a time capsule in that sense. Merry Clayton did endure quite a lot of tragedy, but is still active...singing on multiple cuts on a recent Coldplay release and also dropped a solo album earlier this year.

    In the live performances it will sometime sound like the drumming is off, but it's not. He keeps time with Keith Richards, and usually it's the other way around Where the band follows the drummers lead. Check out their song bitch. It's greasey slimy guitar riff . You're gonna love it

I think it was a warning to all the sides that shit could go sideways at any moment ...sort of appropriate today as well.

    One of the great anti-war songs of all time, but it’s about more than just war. In 1968-‘69 the world seemed on the brink of destruction, not just from Viet Nam but also from racial strife, assasinations, the youth revolt and counterculture, etc. Nobody captured the darkness and turmoil better than The Stones, with this song and others like Street Fighting Man, Jumpin’ Jack Flash, etc.
    Gimme Shelter seems to imply that we’re caught in the grip of evil forces beyond our control, but then the last verse brings it home by showing how easy it is to choose the path of love, and how that choice is totally ours to make.

    Stones almost always had piano. Ian Stewart was unofficially in the band. Hated playing slow stuff. Nicky Hopkins was another mainstay. Billy Preston played with them too.

    The Stones were much more into a rhythm in their songs and were never into the over hype of getting to deep in the 60s psychedelic era with only one album devoted to that and not over doing it with boring philosophical messages. . One song that no one ever much reacts to is Fingerprint File which is a classic 70s funky tune that could use some attention.
