    The song is about overcoming obstacles, adversity and smiling about it.
    "I was born in a crossfire Hurricane." Mick Jagger and Keith Richards kind of literally were. They're both born in Dartford, England in 1943 - east of London and still kind of like the front lines during the blitz in WWII - constant air-raids and a bombed out place at the time...

      @@waynemoe3823 I'll take your word for it. I only saw beatniks in movies and Dobie Gillis reruns. When I was new in the world, the world was full of hippies. Sometimes they said "gas", in a context of it being something positive, advantageous or joyous. Maybe the parallel is drawn from the effect of laughing gas. I think it might be easier to compile synonyms than eliminate them.

      Funny you say that because “Jumpin Jack Flash” was a comeback song for the Stones in 1968 after a period of baroque pop and psychedelic recordings during Between the Buttons (1967) and Their Satanic Majesties Request (1967). Ultimately, they would record Beggar’s Banquet (1968) and start to hit their creative peak, producing a stretch of masterful rock albums that only the Beatles could rival.

    This is my "Best Rock 'N' Roll Song Ever!", but I can't really say why, I just feel it. It's partly the music; the rollicking rhythm, the unique tones, the strong vocals, the simple short structure, the absence of pretension. And it's partly the story; public pleasure as a victory, as a repudiation of denial, as a defeat of the evil forces of repression. JJF has endured and emerged victorious! For me it's the essence of '60s hedonistic freedom. I recall some critic's phrase, "the Rolling Stones at their thuggish best"- it applies here!

  • @hilarywilliams1909

    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.

    From what I have read, "Jumpin' Jack Flash" was a nickname that Keith Richards gave to his gardener. I guess the guy was kinda weird and he was either slow moving or hopped around, something like that. So Keith came up with a riff and he and Mick just made up the lyrics about this gardener's imaginary life history.
    It's a total goof, as Brad said.

    Jack Flash. His name is Jack Dyer. He was Keith Richard's gardener. It's a long story. I don't have enough time to explain it at all. Keith and Mick were up all night, The next morning they saw Jack Working on a cold rainy day In the garden. Keep Keith and Mick sat down and began writing the song.

  • @chrisboutin4816
    @chrisboutin4816 Год назад +1

    So, Mick Jagger had slept over at Keith Richards place and in the morning, the gardener was out trimming the hedges and making a racket. Mick asked Keith: “Who is that?”, and Keith responded: “Jumping Jack!” Because the gardener’s name was Jack.
    What is most significant about this song is that it heralds The Stones return to their R&B roots. After their previous album, “Their Satanic Majesty’s Request” (from which you reviewed 2 songs, 2000 Light Years from Home and She’s Like a Rainbow) and it’s dismal review by critics, The Stones wanted to return to their origins. They’d tried their chops at psychedelia, in line with Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band which The Beatles had just put out and which seemed to indicate a new musical direction for the times.
    Jumping’ Jack Flash brings The Stones back and sets them on the path to musical dominance for the next decade or so. It also embroils them in more controversy, something which they never shied away from, as critics read Demonic undertones in the lyrics. When they released “Sympathy for the Devil”, critics labelled them as Devil Worshippers which made parents hate them even more, and teens love them more.
    Acoustically, this song is unique and that’s because of Keith’s wizardry. The main riff is played on an acoustic guitar which is first recorded on a tape recorder then run through an amplifier to give it that fuzz box sound. Backed up by an electric guitar, it’s hard to discern where one instrument takes over where the other leaves off.

    We still use the term in Ireland. A good time is still often referred to as " a great gas" as a person who's good fun to be around.

    This generation is very lucky. All the lyrics are provided for you. Back in the 60's and 70's growing up you would listen to a song literally 50+ times to try and figure out the lyrics. And Jagger I believe in a interview said he sang them that way on some songs on purpose. If you think I'm kidding listen to their song Lies without having the lyrics in front of you, it's impossible! So once you got the lyrics halfway figured out you try and develop a meaning for the song from your own experiences. I was more into the lyrics 'cause I didn't have much of an ear for the musical side. Though I can appreciate some licks and. anything Alvin Lee.

    The Rolling Stones, for me, are the most iconographic group for anti-establishment for the time. They were considered the bad boys to The Beatles being equally popular and appearing on the same time line. For this era, as I've seen mentioned numerous times, the instrumentality of music was becoming forefront and vocalist styles started to adapt with the movement towards instrumental virtuosity, blending and evoking sounds never heard before. Hearing Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and here, Mick Jagger, you get a sense of how the early blues styles were so easily able to be captured in voices singing about the ills of the day (racism, The War, drugs and crossed relationships). This era allowed music to blend and it was new. People probably didn't expect to see The Fifth Dimension doing Hair! :)

    Gas is term commonly used in England meaning a good time.The song is about being a survivor and coming out of hard times and now everything is a gas.The title was inspired by a British cartoon of the era named Jumpin Jack.

    There is a children's rhyme story about jumping jack flash sat on a candlestick, jumping jack got up quick because the candle was lit he became a flash. A gas is a good time. A party could be called a gasser or a humorous person was a gasser. Someone who is frequently full of themselves is called full of hot air or full of gas, too.

    1968....We did this in our Junior high rock band as main song on our limited set list....from 1968 to 1971. Esp 1970-71. One of the Stone's best, just rocks to me. It's got a back beat laid down by the recently late drummer Charlie Watts that you just can't beat or improve on. He was like a perfect metronome, him and Ringo of the Beatles. one funny note: We would throw in a line changed to see if people noticed: "Jumpin' Jack Flash, he's got gas...." and would giggle at the idea.

    The story I heard was that Mick and Keith were sitting around at an estate somewhere, and an old caretaker was talking about how hard they had it when he was a kid, and how the current young people didn't know how good they had it. And their punch line was "But it's alright now...", a snarky way of saying "should everything stay shitty so you can feel better about it?"

    Most people don't understand the lyrics because Mick was at Keth's country estate. They were trying to write music for there next album with no luck because of bad case of writer's block. One cold foggy England morning after being up all night and drunk and high they were sitting in the house when Mick hears boots scraping on the stone walkway out side and ask Keth " What's that ?" Keth reply's " That's just the estates care taker Jumping Jack Flash ". Mick sits u and says what a grate name for a song, Tell me all about him. The lyrics are short snip its about Jack's life time
    It's a gas is a shorten down version of the saying, "Now were cooking with gas". That comes from when the country started going from wood stoves to gas stoves that were easier, faster and HOTTER.
