I know not a lot of people like this album, but “Their Satanic Majesties Request” is one of my favorite stones’ albums. It has some of my favorite songs like “2000 Man” “She’s a Rainbow” and “2000 Lightyears from Home”
For me, I never really got into their "Psychedelic period". "2000 Lightyears" is kind of a cool track, but to me they really found their voice on the next album, BEGGAR'S BANQUET.
I agree - i like it - but it was a litte mess . The Track - List is wrong ! It must Start with "" On with The Show"" - its the invetation next ""Lantern"" clear to hesr the bells ... .. - -
Mick Taylor is the reason I play guitar to this day. I’m obsessed with his solos on “Winter” and “Time waits for No One”. He has got to be one of the most underrated rock guitarist ever!
Underrated? He added a whole new dimension to the Stones best works in the late 60s and early 70s. Like Eric Clapton, he was a student of John Mayall. He's viewed as a God like Clapton was just a few years earlier.
The Mick Taylor years are also my favorite Stones period. “Let It Bleed” is my favorite Stones album, and I still get chills when I hear the intro to “Gimme Shelter.” Thanks for the memories!
@@loempiavreter "Honkey Tonk Women" isn't on LET IT BLEED, "Country Honk" is, which Taylor is playing slide on, and he's also playing guitar on "Live with Me". Brian's playing percussion on "Midnight Rambler" and an autoharp on "You Got the Silver." Keith is playing all other guitar parts himself.
@@JTCurtisMusic forgive me for confusing the two, it basically is the same song just 2 different arrangements. But that means that country honk is without Mick Taylor... as it's the version without him which makes his let it bleed credit back to 1... anyway i love half of let it bleed (monkey man, gimme shelter, you cant always get what you want, and midnight rambler) and hate the other half which is mostly the sound that is to come. And the half i love is mostly a keef ting init (BJs percussion doesnt add a whole lot, so im not gonna count him). The half i hate is the sound of the future rolling stones, the sound i truly hate, i absolute think the mick taylor years are horrid. But it what was needed to survive the late 60s to early 70s, where its all about middleclass class ponces w**nking on around on technicalities. Thank god for T.Rex, glam and Ziggy Stardust era Bowie and the punk that followed. Prog rock and stadium rock are for old dads, they have no underground savoir-faire.
Mick Taylor gets too much credit for that Stones era. The person most responsible for the "Classic" era is producer Jimmy Miller. He starts on the Jumpin' Jack Flash single up through Goat's Head Soup. Mick Taylor isn't on Beggar's Banquet and barely on Let It Bleed (if at all ).
What a life! Our music heroes our passing seems like everyday. however I'm much more grateful for the music they left behind then mournful of their loss. Much love to their friends and family he got satisfaction 🎸
The first 10 years of the Stones is my favorite period. My favorite Stones songs would be Let's Spend the Night Together, Mother's Little Helper (which was my mom's favorite), Ruby Tuesday, Jumpin' Jack Flash (the first song I played on a drum set) and Start Me Up.
Moonlight Mile is the perfect ending I've ever hear in an álbum, and it's my favorite Stones song from my favorite Stones album, it's just perfect and it's an explosion of emotions, I agree with you at all!
so happy you included heartbreakers! when i was little, it was all beatles, beatles, beatles both group then solo careers. then when i was 11 i heard heartbreakers, brand new, on the radio for the first time. i had heard the stones and other bands before, of course, but this blew me away. they've been my favorite band ever since. lyrically, their songs are infinitely deeper than anyone else. great video and list!
Here are my fave Stones songs up to 1981, in chronological order. Hits: Paint it Black; Jumpin' Jack Flash; Sympathy for the Devil; Honky Tonk Women; Gimme Shelter; Brown Sugar; Tumbling Dice; Happy; Beast of Burden; Start Me Up Deep Cuts: I'm Free; Child of the Moon; Factory Girl; Monkey Man; Moonlight Mile; Rocks Off; Winter; Time Waits for No One; Hand of Fate; Before They Make Me Run Great video!
Brilliant. I understand that you love the Mick Taylor era. For me, it's a wild mix though - I love the early Stones as well. Here's my top 10 right now (have done this a few times with friends and with my dad and it always changes a bit): 1. Gimme Shelter 2. Out of Time (strings version) 3. Come On 4. Jumpin' Jack Flash 5. Get Off of My Cloud 6. Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker) 7. Stoned 8. Let's Spend the Night Together 9. You Can't Always Get What You Want (album version) 10. Mixed Emotions Hmm... Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow? should have been in there as well. Well, it changes, this is not static.
1. Sway 2. Can’t You Hear Me Knockin’? 3. 2000 Light Years From Home 4. Heart of Stone 5. Moonlight Mile 6. Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker) 7. No Expectations 8. Memory Motel 9. Let’s Spend the Night Together 10. 100 Years Ago
@@suemurphy4957 well those are my favorites. Sad you could think any of those are weak songs :/ Sure some are slow and sorta sad, but that's the Stones I prefer.
Paint it Black and She`s a Rainbow would definitely make it onto my list :P A certain band called Led Zeppelin might be fun, some of you might have heard of them.
1. You Can't Always Get What You Want 2. Gimme Shelter 3. Jumpin' Jack Flash 4. Love In Vain 5. Angie 6. Dead Flowers 7. Ruby Tuesday 8. Satisfaction 9. You Got The Silver 10. No Expectations
My favourite 1963 Stones song: I Wanna Be Your Man (the song The Beatles gave to them as their first hit) My favourite 1964 Stones song: Tell Me (You're Coming Back) Not bad for a first Rolling Stones original and ballad, has a very Lennon-McCartney-esque sound to it as well! My favourite 1965 Stones song: Get Off My Cloud first Stones song I ever heards and will always be my favourite of their early tunes because of their energy, vocal delivery and especially drumming by Charlie Watts Brian and Keith's guitars are awesome though too My favourite 1966 Stones song: I'm actually choosing one that was recorded during the Aftermath sessions for the album but never made an appearance until a US compilation album in 1967 called "Flowers" where it was one of two new original songs plus a cover featured here and nowhere else called "Ride On, Baby" where Brian Jones shows off his multi-instrumental talents to the max and is an awesome bop which for the life of me never appeared on "Aftermath" among many other songs they could have left out is beyond me but I guess they just wanted to do more blues and less baroque pop like The Beatles and The Kinks were doing. My favourite 1967 Stones song: I'm going with Back Street Girl from "Between the Buttons" off the UK version which didn't appear on the American edition but also appeared on "Flowers" as a baroque pop/psychedelic gem of what they were experimenting during this time. I view this as another ballad and work of art not just thanks to Brian Jones but thanks to other musicians which collaborated during this time like Jack Nitzsche on harpsichord plus an accordion player they invited to play as well. There is simply no other song like this. My favourite 1968 Stones song: I'm going with "Stray Cat Blues" off "Beggars Banquet". It's just wild, mad and has got the best guitar playing by Keith Richards I've ever heard honestly. It's the heaviest track on this roots rock album where most of the songs are more bluesy and countrified by comparison. This is certainly something akin to Jimi Hendrix or heck, even like The Beatles' "Helter Skelter". My favourite 1969 Stones song: I love "Gimme Shelter" but I think I actually personally prefer "Honky Tonk Women" the single from this year not on "Let It Bleed" for whatever reason and the last they would put out separately from an album. Mick Taylor's guitar really makes this song but also Keith's riffing and the percussion played by Charlie and Jimmy Miller are just swinging. I also like how Bill doesn't play bass for most of the song and when he does play it's jazzin'. My favourite 1971 song: Can't go wrong with the iconic "Brown Sugar". Such an epic rock'n'roll track with an irresistible riff, disgusting lyrics but boy oh boy, is it catchy? My favourite 1972 song: Gotta agree with "Tumbling Dice". Man, it is ROCK'N'ROLL AND GROOVEH!! My favourite 1973 song: Winter, in my opinion not only one of the best Stones ballads ever but it has the best second half and instrumental section of any Stones song beautifully delivered by Mick Taylor's guitar solo which makes me love this over "Moonlight Mile". My favourite 1974 song: Time Waits For No One is not only a fantastic song in its own right and very much outside The Rolling Stones' league. It has the best guitar solo played by Mick Taylor. Period. My favourite 1976 song: Memory Motel is an epic ballad and criminally underrated Stones track which may be long in length but they how Mick and Keith sing in duo is just so tender and magical. Another one outside their league but I just seem to love these weird outside-the-box songs from the Stones for that reason. My favourite 1978 song: My favourite Stones song of all time, Beast of Burden. My favourite 1980 song: All About You sung by Keith Richards. I love his voice, the theme, lyrics, everything about this arrangement is very personal and heartfelt. Keith without a doubt was akin to John Lennon there lyrics-wise whereas Mick Jagger was more akin to Paul McCartney in that sense. My favourite 1981 song: Gotta go with another Keef track here. It's "Little T&A"! Rude and vulgar I know but the riff is killer, the chorus even more, the way how he and Ronnie play off here, I just think it's the perfect Hard Rock song on "Tattoo You" even if it sounds like your average Hard Rock song from the 70s/80s. It's just everything I like in a Rolling Stones song but Keith's voice for some reason really does it for me here along with him and Ronnie's riffing!
JT a pleasure as always to listen to your thoughts and resons why certain songs are better than others for you. At this moment in time I've been listening to Rock and Roll Circus. The Dvd with John Lennon, Jethro Tull, The Who to name just a few appearing on this. Interestingly enough it got canned as Mick didn't think their performance was good enough! I'm just glad it was finally released. Some of my favourites are -: 'You can't always get what you want' 'Paint it Black' 'She's like a Rainbow' 'Lady Jane' 'Under my thumb' 'Get off of my Cloud' 'Let's spend the night together' 'Ruby Tuesday' 'Hate it when you leave' - One of Keith's own songs 'It's all over Now' 'Salt of the Earth' When you do your list for The Who please include "Magic Bus" and "I can see for Miles" if possible include "Pictures of Lilly" and "Won't get Fooled Again"
My favorite Stones song - I'm glad you selected it - is Sympathy for the Devil, which inspired a novel I'm currently working on (I've published three sf/fantasy so far).

I agree that the quality of the Stones' albums dropped off permanently after "Tattoo You", but their following studio record "Undercover", while not really great, was still *organic* Rolling Stones. It still sounded like a record by a band, pretty nasty and sleazy, with some trademark really weird and disturbing touches. Everything from "Dirty Work" forward sounded like a record by a giant multinational corporation, which is essentially what they had become. They didn't make terrible records, just very calculated for the most part. Mick Jagger as CEO, making sound, reasonable business decisions, Keef as somewhat reluctant Head of Product Development, and the rest are just employees. Now then, Charlie Watts is perhaps the most important employee any business ever had, pretty much indispensable, but at this point he just shows up for work when he wants to have a little fun and make some money. Ron Wood is kind of that legacy guy, still around because he gets along with everyone, fits the brand image, and still does a respectable job. Darryl Jones, great bass player! Kudos to the HR department for recruiting him. I would have included When the Whip Comes Down from Some Girls (best rocker from best Ron Wood era album) and left off Moonlight Mile. It's a fantastic song, but not indispensable. Also for a Keith song, you might have considered Before They Make Me Run (seemingly a hard earned sigh of relief following his Canadian drug bust), also from Some Girls. Big omission: She's So Cold from Emotional Rescue. A nervy, new wavish rocker in the vein of Shattered. Not quite as good lyrically, but with a wicked hook, great guitar interplay, and an absolutely inspired Bill Wyman performance on bass. Also...Rocks Off. That's all I'm going to say. EDIT: Ok, that's not all I'm going to say. Black and Blue, their first album after Mick Taylor left, gets very little love, but allow me. Hot Stuff was actually their first disco tune, but it's the weirdest, rankest smelling disco ever. Distinctly Puerto Rican salsa vibe, with Mick ranting hoarsely with a megaphone treatment on his voice, a thundering shake-the-bodega piano riff, and ...backwards guitars? There's no explaining it. Memory Motel, a nice soul ballad in which Mick and Keith oddly split lead vocal duty, the only example I can recall of them doing this. Hey Negrita, with it's stuttering, chopping guitar riff, implied reggae beat and lyrics as gleefully scummy and offensive as anything they've ever done. But the real gem is Fool to Cry, another Stax style soul ballad, Mick plays electric piano, sing-speaks the verses, and then slides into a sweet falsetto for the two-edged chorus (is he really a fool, or do the people in his life just dismiss his sadness, or is it both?). during the recording of this album they were essentially auditioning guitarists, and American guitarist Wayne Perkins played on this track. Another American, Harvey Mandel also played on the album, but only Ron Wood ended up on the cover. I've always suspected that along with their evaluation of musical fit, they just felt more comfortable with a fellow Englishman. I think they made the right decision, musically and culturally. As an American musician I can authoritatively state that we're a nightmare to work with.
I agree with everything you’ve said here although my favorite off of Emotional Rescue is Let Me Go. Black and Blue holds a special place in my heart because it was the new Stones album when I got turned onto them and it’s just a really solid album.
Completely agree with your comments on the Taylor era. But, I always thought it was a shame that their live set lists over the last 30 years tended to do nothing much after 'Some Girls' though. They must have liked stuff from later albums when they wrote and recorded the material? But, the big under-rated Stones album for me has always been 'It's only rock and roll'. My first exposure to M Taylor's playing and 'Time waits for no one' remains a Desert Island Disc track for me. But, there a many other great tracks on IORAR - like the rest of side 1, 'Luxury' and 'Fingerprint File'. It's the groove that gets me with these tracks. So, that's saying that I like the oft-criticised Glimmer Twins production. The title track isn't much of a song but the groove is so swampy and the vocal rolls around that so well.
I strongly agree with two of your more obscure picks, Moonlight Mile and Sway. Those are my two favorite songs from Sticky Fingers, and favorites to play on guitar and piano from that album. But the Stones had so many great songs to choose from. My list would include more of their early songs, such as She's a Rainbow and Paint it Black, as others have mentioned. I always considered the Stones second only to the Beatles. The reason for this is not because the Stones best songs are necessarily better than other groups best songs, but because their many albums are filled with numerous great 2nd tier tracks, far more numerous than the amount of good songs by most other artists, except for the Beatles and Dylan.
good one be honest I like their early music better early to mid 60s not to say they dont made good songs now but i dont know i love the old timey blues they had going on
10. Thru and Thru 9. Tumbling Dice 8. Brown Sugar 7. Angie 6. Gimme Shelter 5. 100 Years Ago 4. Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker) 3. All Down the Line 2. Loving Cup 1. Can’t You Hear Me Knocking
One of my faves is "Stray Cat Blues." It reminds me of the stories about MacKenzie Phillips who was reputed to have had "an affair" with Jagger when she was just 13, That sounds so much worse than the 15 year old stray cat in the song. But hey, It ain't no hanging matter.
not that i dont listen to the stones rather often but ya make me wanna again and again with this list....i lvoe goats head soup..... love beggars.... love let it bleed...I DO love majesties...love sticky fingers love exile lvoe tattoo...and yes moonlight mile is THE purrfect ending....great list JT!
How come nothing from It's Only Rock And Roll? I would've included Time Waits For No One. The perfect way to represent what I call Mick Taylor's last hurrah with the Stones. I'm glad you finally included Some Girls into the bonus tracks. The hint of a Who video was creative!
You can hear Keith click the fuzz on the recording of Satisfaction. I always loved that. You hit the nail on the head about them being raunchier than The Beatles. I guess that’s why I like The Stones better than The Beatles. Also The Stones are more rooted in The Blues.
- FAVORITE PERIOD 1969 - 1974 (Mick Taylor years), especially live. All my favorite Stones songs are live versions from that era. Live in Texas 1972 and Brussels Affair 1973. Only song out of the Mick Taylor years I can add is Beast of Burden (live Texas 1978 Some Girls tour)
Mine: 1. Gimme Shelter 2. Jumpin' Jack Flash 3. Citadel 4. Out of Time 5. Paint It, Black 6. 2000 Man 7. Angie 8. Backstreet Girl 9. Play With Fire 10. Honky Tonk Women
Jumped in early. Between the Buttons. sixties. 1. Mothers Little Helper, 2, Paint it Black. 3 Hey, You, get off of my Cloud. 4, Nineteenth Nervous Breakdown. Since that was used as a bonus track, just going for ones you missed. substitute, Time is on my Side, the next would be , 5, Let's Spend some time together (for the really big shew) 6.(the B Side) Ruby Tuesday. and borrowing a harpsichord for 7. Lady Jane. 8, Cidital from the Satanic. Magesty. also 9, Two Thousand Light Years From Home. and lastly 10. Wild Horses.
My list Side 1 Not Fade Away The Last Time Satisfaction Mother’s Little Helper Goin Home Yesterday’s Papers Side 2 2000 Light Years From Home Sympathy For The Devil (Rock And Roll Circus Live) Gimme Shelter Dead Flowers Can You Hear Me Knocking Beast Of Burden
Some songs not on your list would include "Out of Time," "She's So Cold," and "2000 Man"...but otherwise, yeah, you pretty much nailed their best in your list.
Mick Taylor had a hand in writing more than a couple of their best tunes in their best era, but screwed him out of the credits & cash , as far as what I’d read from Taylor himself & others along the way. Makes sense, as the rarified air around that era left the room when Taylor departed
I enjoy the Mick Taylor era and he always brings something to his run of albums But i enjoy the Brian Jones Era especially Aftermath through Beggars Banquet even tho agruably Brian started to contributed more as a muilti Instrumentalist but he is more felt on Aftermath I enjoy Paint it Black,Ruby Tuesday,Under My Thumb,She Loves You,Child of the Moon,Jumpin Jack Flash,and She's a Rainbow
@@JTCurtisMusic hahaha, yesss, i know its so hard to pick some songs from a great band.... btw, i like your channel, i think we have a same taste of music and i like your video about 10 album list. If you know, i have a channel like you too, but im speaking with my languange, bahasa indonesia, not in english. Greeting from Indonesia 😁👍
"Angie" was considered for the playlist, though I prefer their ballads "Moonlight Mile" and "Wild Horses". "Paint it Black" while I like it, has never really been my favorite, same can be said for a lot of their mid-60s hits, their psychedelia period. Still, I can definitely see why it's so popular.
We have a lot in common when it comes to the Stones. Sticky Fingers is my favorite and the Mick Taylor years my favorite. Moonlight Mile. Cant You Hear Me Knocking and 19th nervous breakdown is probably my favorite older stones tune and Live Midnight Rambler. Oooh and I love Sway. Mick Taylor and Nicky Hopkins. Cant get much better than that. Goats Head Soup is very underappreciated and doo doo doo doo. Heartbreaker is my favorite. I would have included Monkey Man from Let it Bleed just for the intro. Shattered is probably my favorite from Some Girls
Tattoo You is their last album I fancy, but still 27 tracks on my playlist from the past 40 years, even more then Nirwana and Foo Fighters combinded, not bad. I had to relisten to Coming Down Again, it's not on my playlist. Sounds rather sluggish and monotonous to me, as most slow country rock ballads do, as sympathetic /empathetic they might be , nothing to get excited about. My top four from Sticky Fingers are rather Bitch/Sister Morphine/Wild Horses/Sway. Sister Morphine seems to have some curse on it, probably (or very likely? ) because of the subject/lyrics, but the build up and music is incredible. One of the most haunting rock tracks ever. Start Me Up, Honky Tonk Woman and Can't You Hear won't even make it to a top 40; I like the instrumental ending of Can't You... , but that riff/rhythm is too stuttering, the song doesn't flow, and i like my rock songs flowing swiftly.. Would gladly change them for 2000 Light Years, Have You Seen Your Mother, Get Off Of My Cloud, Under my Thumb, Emotional Rescue, It's Only Rock n Roll etc....
@@JPproductions303 That leaves the only option of picking your favourite one. *XD* JTCurtis already spoke of The Moon and Wish You Were Here as his, so there is nothing of Pink Floyd to show anymore.
I think pretty much everyone will agree '68-'72/3 is their golden era; and you're right about the late era from '89 on - it just isn't as good as early. Yet - I would very much include "B2B" among their best albums. Somehow after that dreadful "Voodoo" album they pulled it together again. "Out of Control" and "Saint of Me" are excellent. Plus they did what every band should do: they took the album on the road. This is how all great Stones songs became classics; on live stages. PS (and I say this respectfully), but you are playing the CYHMK riff wrong. Edit - when talking about the huge Stones catalog it can also be fun to make a whole other playlist that focuses only on solo efforts. Jagger and Keith, and esp. Ron Wood, but also early solo Taylor, and Wyman have done a lot of great stuff. This, of course applies also to solo Beatles.
@@vojtaz9518 It's definitely a challenge to compile these. "Paint it Black" has been a little overplayed for me. "Satisfaction" too, I just think it's such an important milestone in rock history, it wouldn't be right to leave it off. And I already had so many tracks off of STICKY FINGERS, I felt including "Brown Sugar" would be too many. And yeah I guess 2021 hindsight haven't been kind to this tune, but it's still a fun rock and roll number.
Too many GR8 songs to try to shorten them down that much. All the songs You Picked were FANTASTIC, but Not Much for the Incredible songs that DIDDN'T get radio play. It was Kinda Like a Greatest hits album from those years. Nothing from "It's Only Rock'n'roll..." or "Emotional Rescue" at all!? I'll say "Fingerprint File" with that Crazy Bass played by M.Taylor - that's as Beautiful as Any Guitar riff in Your Timeline. Also, I Don't have a 10 WORST Stones Songs (Peronally I Don't Need to hear "Angie" more than 1-2x/yr - But I Still think It's a Gr8 Song). I Can Listen to any of their albums in that time period (B4 & After as Well) in Full - & Enjoy it ALL!Still - I Agree. All The Songs You picked ARE Songs that I Love TOO.
"Fingerprint File" was definitely considered, also "Time Waits for No One" also from ONLY ROCK N ROLL. I never got into EMOTIONAL RESCUE but "She's So Cold" is a fun number.
Rotten List.....The Stones went downhill after Brian was fired,.....This guy misses such excellent tracks as "The Last Time" "19th Nervous Breakdown"....."Ruby Tuesday"......"Lady Jane"....."She's A Rainbow"
"19th Nervous Breakdown" is in the bonus tracks. "The Last Time" is a good early classic and "Lady Jane" is an interesting one as well. "She's a Rainbow" and "Ruby Tuesday" never really did it for me.
Actually most of those songs were considered for this list. It's hard to narrow it down. "Monkey Man" and "Sweet Virginia" just barely missed being in it.
How we disagree! - The early years is my absolute favorite period. Actually most of what they made after "Aftermath" (with very few exceptions) is not my thing at all. I count "Let It Bleed" among the three most overrated albums ever. For me it's the firs four albums ("Rolling Stones", "No. 2", "Out Of Our Heads" and "Aftermath"), together with the singles and EP's from the same period. Trust me! - I really have tried: listened and struggled - and listened and struggled again. But it's like bumping into a massive wall. I simply can't move beyond. There are some few songs here and there. But while I like almost everything they did in their early years, the songs I like from several later decades output can be counted on one hand. So we probably doesn't agree about anything when it comes to Stones. While you want to hear "Gimme Shelter" and "Can't Hear Me Knocking", I prefer listening to "Tell Me" and "When Blue Turns To Grey". And Talking about compilations. In the beginning of your video you had my favorite Stones-compilation standing in the background, "Around and Around". I guess I'm not really a Stones-fan. But I really love some of the early stuff. "As Tears Goes By" is beautiful song, especially in the Marian Faithful version. Maybe I'm just very conservative. It's up for discussion whether it's proper or ironic, that my absolute favorite Stones-song is "Out Of Time". By the way: I must correct an error: "I Wanna Be Your Man" was the second single. The first was a cover of Chuck Berrys "Come On".
I agree! - They did a great job on several Berry-songs. Love their version of "Come On" and the expended "Down The Road Apiece". There were also some great covers of Muddy Waters and Jimmy Reed.
I’m probably late on this one, but “She’s A Rainbow” is pretty solid! 🌈
She’s a rainbow not being in this playlist should be considered a crime against humanity
I know not a lot of people like this album, but “Their Satanic Majesties Request” is one of my favorite stones’ albums. It has some of my favorite songs like “2000 Man” “She’s a Rainbow” and “2000 Lightyears from Home”
For me, I never really got into their "Psychedelic period". "2000 Lightyears" is kind of a cool track, but to me they really found their voice on the next album, BEGGAR'S BANQUET.
I agree - i like it - but it was a litte mess .
The Track - List is wrong !
It must Start with "" On with The Show"" -
its the invetation
next ""Lantern"" clear to hesr the bells ... .. - -
Mick Taylor is the reason I play guitar to this day. I’m obsessed with his solos on “Winter” and “Time waits for No One”. He has got to be one of the most underrated rock guitarist ever!
Underrated? He added a whole new dimension to the Stones best works in the late 60s and early 70s. Like Eric Clapton, he was a student of John Mayall. He's viewed as a God like Clapton was just a few years earlier.
TWFNO is an amazing jam that’s always overlooked
Not only Mick taylor, a whole rolling stones is underrated now, i bet only 2-5% kids- Teenager in this generation know rolling stones,
“Time Waits for no-one” is really their signing-out tune.
The Mick Taylor years are also my favorite Stones period. “Let It Bleed” is my favorite Stones album, and I still get chills when I hear the intro to “Gimme Shelter.” Thanks for the memories!
LET IT BLEED is definitely up there with STICKY FINGERS for me
Yet Mick Taylor is not on Let it Bleed, except honky tonk woman even BJ has more credits
@@loempiavreter "Honkey Tonk Women" isn't on LET IT BLEED, "Country Honk" is, which Taylor is playing slide on, and he's also playing guitar on "Live with Me". Brian's playing percussion on "Midnight Rambler" and an autoharp on "You Got the Silver." Keith is playing all other guitar parts himself.
@@JTCurtisMusic forgive me for confusing the two, it basically is the same song just 2 different arrangements. But that means that country honk is without Mick Taylor... as it's the version without him which makes his let it bleed credit back to 1... anyway i love half of let it bleed (monkey man, gimme shelter, you cant always get what you want, and midnight rambler) and hate the other half which is mostly the sound that is to come. And the half i love is mostly a keef ting init (BJs percussion doesnt add a whole lot, so im not gonna count him). The half i hate is the sound of the future rolling stones, the sound i truly hate, i absolute think the mick taylor years are horrid. But it what was needed to survive the late 60s to early 70s, where its all about middleclass class ponces w**nking on around on technicalities. Thank god for T.Rex, glam and Ziggy Stardust era Bowie and the punk that followed. Prog rock and stadium rock are for old dads, they have no underground savoir-faire.
Mick Taylor gets too much credit for that Stones era. The person most responsible for the "Classic" era is producer Jimmy Miller. He starts on the Jumpin' Jack Flash single up through Goat's Head Soup. Mick Taylor isn't on Beggar's Banquet and barely on Let It Bleed (if at all ).
Beggars Banquet will always be my favorite Stones album, every single song on that album is just perfect
What a life! Our music heroes our
passing seems like everyday. however I'm much more grateful for the music they left behind then mournful of their loss. Much love to their friends and family he got satisfaction 🎸
I'm so glad Sway got some love. One of Charlie's best moments imo. Jeez the Stones are so badass
The first 10 years of the Stones is my favorite period. My favorite Stones songs would be Let's Spend the Night Together, Mother's Little Helper (which was my mom's favorite), Ruby Tuesday, Jumpin' Jack Flash (the first song I played on a drum set) and Start Me Up.
I too love the old stuff. I remember how jazzed I was when I first heard "Connection" from "Between the Buttons."
Moonlight Mile is the perfect ending I've ever hear in an álbum, and it's my favorite Stones song from my favorite Stones album, it's just perfect and it's an explosion of emotions, I agree with you at all!
so happy you included heartbreakers! when i was little, it was all beatles, beatles, beatles both group then solo careers. then when i was 11 i heard heartbreakers, brand new, on the radio for the first time. i had heard the stones and other bands before, of course, but this blew me away. they've been my favorite band ever since. lyrically, their songs are infinitely deeper than anyone else. great video and list!
Good list. Although leaving out Get Off Of My Cloud, Paint It Black, Under My Thumb, and Mother’s Little Helper is difficult to do, in my mind
Get Off Of My Cloud and Under My Thumb especially were definitely considered.
What about paint it black
Shattered on this Playlist is such a great take honestly
Here are my fave Stones songs up to 1981, in chronological order.
Hits: Paint it Black; Jumpin' Jack Flash; Sympathy for the Devil; Honky Tonk Women; Gimme Shelter; Brown Sugar; Tumbling Dice; Happy; Beast of Burden; Start Me Up
Deep Cuts: I'm Free; Child of the Moon; Factory Girl; Monkey Man; Moonlight Mile; Rocks Off; Winter; Time Waits for No One; Hand of Fate; Before They Make Me Run
Great video!
Brilliant. I understand that you love the Mick Taylor era. For me, it's a wild mix though - I love the early Stones as well. Here's my top 10 right now (have done this a few times with friends and with my dad and it always changes a bit):
1. Gimme Shelter
2. Out of Time (strings version)
3. Come On
4. Jumpin' Jack Flash
5. Get Off of My Cloud
6. Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)
7. Stoned
8. Let's Spend the Night Together
9. You Can't Always Get What You Want (album version)
10. Mixed Emotions
Hmm... Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow? should have been in there as well. Well, it changes, this is not static.
The early period of the stones was probably my favorite, I’d include route 66, 2000 lightyears from home and sympathy for the devil myself.
1. Sway
2. Can’t You Hear Me Knockin’?
3. 2000 Light Years From Home
4. Heart of Stone
5. Moonlight Mile
6. Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)
7. No Expectations
8. Memory Motel
9. Let’s Spend the Night Together
10. 100 Years Ago
weak list
@@suemurphy4957 well those are my favorites. Sad you could think any of those are weak songs :/ Sure some are slow and sorta sad, but that's the Stones I prefer.
My Favorite Songs Are:
1 Under My Thumb
2 Ruby Tuesday
3 Gimme Shelter
4 Get Off My Cloud
5 Brown Sugar
Under my thumb.......still sends me
Was definitely considered for this list.
My favourite stones hits are let it loose from exile and 100 years ago from goats head soup. 2 very under appreciated songs
Exile is their best album.
Thank you for the moonlight mile appreciation!!! Yessss!!!
I always liked the mid 60s period with 19th Nervous Breakdown, Lady Jane and Mother's Little Helper!
Paint it Black and She`s a Rainbow would definitely make it onto my list :P A certain band called Led Zeppelin might be fun, some of you might have heard of them.
Hmmm...no. I haven’t. Care to explain?
@@simpbartson2426 I think the Other Guy needs to explain this one

My favourite 1963 Stones song: I Wanna Be Your Man (the song The Beatles gave to them as their first hit)
My favourite 1964 Stones song: Tell Me (You're Coming Back) Not bad for a first Rolling Stones original and ballad, has a very Lennon-McCartney-esque sound to it as well!
My favourite 1965 Stones song: Get Off My Cloud first Stones song I ever heards and will always be my favourite of their early tunes because of their energy, vocal delivery and especially drumming by Charlie Watts
Brian and Keith's guitars are awesome though too
My favourite 1966 Stones song: I'm actually choosing one that was recorded during the Aftermath sessions for the album but never made an appearance until a US compilation album in 1967 called "Flowers" where it was one of two new original songs plus a cover featured here and nowhere else called "Ride On, Baby" where Brian Jones shows off his multi-instrumental talents to the max and is an awesome bop which for the life of me never appeared on "Aftermath" among many other songs they could have left out is beyond me but I guess they just wanted to do more blues and less baroque pop like The Beatles and The Kinks were doing.
My favourite 1967 Stones song: I'm going with Back Street Girl from "Between the Buttons" off the UK version which didn't appear on the American edition but also appeared on "Flowers" as a baroque pop/psychedelic gem of what they were experimenting during this time. I view this as another ballad and work of art not just thanks to Brian Jones but thanks to other musicians which collaborated during this time like Jack Nitzsche on harpsichord plus an accordion player they invited to play as well. There is simply no other song like this.
My favourite 1968 Stones song: I'm going with "Stray Cat Blues" off "Beggars Banquet". It's just wild, mad and has got the best guitar playing by Keith Richards I've ever heard honestly. It's the heaviest track on this roots rock album where most of the songs are more bluesy and countrified by comparison. This is certainly something akin to Jimi Hendrix or heck, even like The Beatles' "Helter Skelter".
My favourite 1969 Stones song: I love "Gimme Shelter" but I think I actually personally prefer "Honky Tonk Women" the single from this year not on "Let It Bleed" for whatever reason and the last they would put out separately from an album. Mick Taylor's guitar really makes this song but also Keith's riffing and the percussion played by Charlie and Jimmy Miller are just swinging. I also like how Bill doesn't play bass for most of the song and when he does play it's jazzin'.
My favourite 1971 song: Can't go wrong with the iconic "Brown Sugar". Such an epic rock'n'roll track with an irresistible riff, disgusting lyrics but boy oh boy, is it catchy?
My favourite 1972 song: Gotta agree with "Tumbling Dice". Man, it is ROCK'N'ROLL AND GROOVEH!!
My favourite 1973 song: Winter, in my opinion not only one of the best Stones ballads ever but it has the best second half and instrumental section of any Stones song beautifully delivered by Mick Taylor's guitar solo which makes me love this over "Moonlight Mile".
My favourite 1974 song: Time Waits For No One is not only a fantastic song in its own right and very much outside The Rolling Stones' league. It has the best guitar solo played by Mick Taylor. Period.
My favourite 1976 song: Memory Motel is an epic ballad and criminally underrated Stones track which may be long in length but they how Mick and Keith sing in duo is just so tender and magical. Another one outside their league but I just seem to love these weird outside-the-box songs from the Stones for that reason.
My favourite 1978 song: My favourite Stones song of all time, Beast of Burden.
My favourite 1980 song: All About You sung by Keith Richards. I love his voice, the theme, lyrics, everything about this arrangement is very personal and heartfelt. Keith without a doubt was akin to John Lennon there lyrics-wise whereas Mick Jagger was more akin to Paul McCartney in that sense.
My favourite 1981 song: Gotta go with another Keef track here. It's "Little T&A"! Rude and vulgar I know but the riff is killer, the chorus even more, the way how he and Ronnie play off here, I just think it's the perfect Hard Rock song on "Tattoo You" even if it sounds like your average Hard Rock song from the 70s/80s. It's just everything I like in a Rolling Stones song but Keith's voice for some reason really does it for me here along with him and Ronnie's riffing!
JT a pleasure as always to listen to your thoughts and resons why certain songs are better than others for you. At this moment in time I've been listening to Rock and Roll Circus. The Dvd with John Lennon, Jethro Tull, The Who to name just a few appearing on this. Interestingly enough it got canned as Mick didn't think their performance was good enough! I'm just glad it was finally released. Some of my favourites are -:
'You can't always get what you want'
'Paint it Black'
'She's like a Rainbow'
'Lady Jane'
'Under my thumb'
'Get off of my Cloud'
'Let's spend the night together'
'Ruby Tuesday'
'Hate it when you leave' - One of Keith's own songs
'It's all over Now'
'Salt of the Earth'
When you do your list for The Who please include "Magic Bus" and "I can see for Miles" if possible include "Pictures of Lilly" and "Won't get Fooled Again"
I really love the live version of love in vain on the stripped album, it’s really amazing
The one from Get Yer Ya Yas Out with Mick Taylor's slide solo is my favorite rendition of the tune.
Speaking of Some Girls, "Respectable" kicks so much ass.
I think the last really great Stones song was "Saint of me"
Sticky Fingers is also my favorite stones album and my fav song there is Wild Horses which is my fav stones song.
My favorite Stones song - I'm glad you selected it - is Sympathy for the Devil, which inspired a novel I'm currently working on (I've published three sf/fantasy so far).
At least you mentioned Brown Sugar.
Rocks Off is my favorite stones song.

Was definitely considered for this list
I agree that the quality of the Stones' albums dropped off permanently after "Tattoo You", but their following studio record "Undercover", while not really great, was still *organic* Rolling Stones. It still sounded like a record by a band, pretty nasty and sleazy, with some trademark really weird and disturbing touches. Everything from "Dirty Work" forward sounded like a record by a giant multinational corporation, which is essentially what they had become. They didn't make terrible records, just very calculated for the most part. Mick Jagger as CEO, making sound, reasonable business decisions, Keef as somewhat reluctant Head of Product Development, and the rest are just employees. Now then, Charlie Watts is perhaps the most important employee any business ever had, pretty much indispensable, but at this point he just shows up for work when he wants to have a little fun and make some money. Ron Wood is kind of that legacy guy, still around because he gets along with everyone, fits the brand image, and still does a respectable job. Darryl Jones, great bass player! Kudos to the HR department for recruiting him.
I would have included When the Whip Comes Down from Some Girls (best rocker from best Ron Wood era album) and left off Moonlight Mile. It's a fantastic song, but not indispensable. Also for a Keith song, you might have considered Before They Make Me Run (seemingly a hard earned sigh of relief following his Canadian drug bust), also from Some Girls. Big omission: She's So Cold from Emotional Rescue. A nervy, new wavish rocker in the vein of Shattered. Not quite as good lyrically, but with a wicked hook, great guitar interplay, and an absolutely inspired Bill Wyman performance on bass.
Also...Rocks Off. That's all I'm going to say.
EDIT: Ok, that's not all I'm going to say. Black and Blue, their first album after Mick Taylor left, gets very little love, but allow me. Hot Stuff was actually their first disco tune, but it's the weirdest, rankest smelling disco ever. Distinctly Puerto Rican salsa vibe, with Mick ranting hoarsely with a megaphone treatment on his voice, a thundering shake-the-bodega piano riff, and ...backwards guitars? There's no explaining it. Memory Motel, a nice soul ballad in which Mick and Keith oddly split lead vocal duty, the only example I can recall of them doing this. Hey Negrita, with it's stuttering, chopping guitar riff, implied reggae beat and lyrics as gleefully scummy and offensive as anything they've ever done. But the real gem is Fool to Cry, another Stax style soul ballad, Mick plays electric piano, sing-speaks the verses, and then slides into a sweet falsetto for the two-edged chorus (is he really a fool, or do the people in his life just dismiss his sadness, or is it both?). during the recording of this album they were essentially auditioning guitarists, and American guitarist Wayne Perkins played on this track. Another American, Harvey Mandel also played on the album, but only Ron Wood ended up on the cover. I've always suspected that along with their evaluation of musical fit, they just felt more comfortable with a fellow Englishman. I think they made the right decision, musically and culturally. As an American musician I can authoritatively state that we're a nightmare to work with.
I agree with everything you’ve said here although my favorite off of Emotional Rescue is Let Me Go. Black and Blue holds a special place in my heart because it was the new Stones album when I got turned onto them and it’s just a really solid album.
Jumpin' Jack Flash is the perfect rock song, my opinion !
Live With Me, Paint It Black, Brown Sugar, The Girl With the Faraway Eyes, Some Girls, probably a dozen more I'm not remembering.
Completely agree with your comments on the Taylor era. But, I always thought it was a shame that their live set lists over the last 30 years tended to do nothing much after 'Some Girls' though. They must have liked stuff from later albums when they wrote and recorded the material? But, the big under-rated Stones album for me has always been 'It's only rock and roll'. My first exposure to M Taylor's playing and 'Time waits for no one' remains a Desert Island Disc track for me. But, there a many other great tracks on IORAR - like the rest of side 1, 'Luxury' and 'Fingerprint File'. It's the groove that gets me with these tracks. So, that's saying that I like the oft-criticised Glimmer Twins production. The title track isn't much of a song but the groove is so swampy and the vocal rolls around that so well.
Both "Time Waits for No One" and "Fingerprint File" came very close to being on this list.
Shattered one of the best
I strongly agree with two of your more obscure picks, Moonlight Mile and Sway. Those are my two favorite songs from Sticky Fingers, and favorites to play on guitar and piano from that album.
But the Stones had so many great songs to choose from. My list would include more of their early songs, such as She's a Rainbow and Paint it Black, as others have mentioned.
I always considered the Stones second only to the Beatles. The reason for this is not because the Stones best songs are necessarily better than other groups best songs, but because their many albums are filled with numerous great 2nd tier tracks, far more numerous than the amount of good songs by most other artists, except for the Beatles and Dylan.
good one be honest I like their early music better early to mid 60s not to say they dont made good songs now but i dont know i love the old timey blues they had going on

2000 light Years From Home - Citadel from SMR. Lady Jane ,Under My Thumb-Aftermath . Paint it, Black- The last Time -singles.
Sticky Fingers is my favorite Stones album too
Love paint it black. Probably my favourite
One of my faves is "Stray Cat Blues." It reminds me of the stories about MacKenzie Phillips who was reputed to have had "an affair" with Jagger when she was just 13, That sounds so much worse than the 15 year old stray cat in the song. But hey, It ain't no hanging matter.
not that i dont listen to the stones rather often but ya make me wanna again and again with this list....i lvoe goats head soup..... love beggars.... love let it bleed...I DO love majesties...love sticky fingers love exile lvoe tattoo...and yes moonlight mile is THE purrfect ending....great list JT!
How come nothing from It's Only Rock And Roll?
I would've included Time Waits For No One. The perfect way to represent what I call Mick Taylor's last hurrah with the Stones.
I'm glad you finally included Some Girls into the bonus tracks.
The hint of a Who video was creative!
Time Waits for No One was definitely considered, just didn't make the cut.
Beast of burden by the rolling stones is my favorite rock and roll man
It was definitely considered for this list.
You can hear Keith click the fuzz on the recording of Satisfaction. I always loved that. You hit the nail on the head about them being raunchier than The Beatles. I guess that’s why I like The Stones better than The Beatles. Also The Stones are more rooted in The Blues.
I always noticed that as well, glad someone else did!
- FAVORITE PERIOD 1969 - 1974 (Mick Taylor years), especially live. All my favorite Stones songs are live versions from that era. Live in Texas 1972 and Brussels Affair 1973. Only song out of the Mick Taylor years I can add is Beast of Burden (live Texas 1978 Some Girls tour)
I really like the guitar on One Hit to The Body.

Dead Flowers!!
The people who say that Keith doesn't have guitar-playing skills literally have no thinking skills
Some songs not on your list would include "Out of Time," "She's So Cold," and "2000 Man"...but otherwise, yeah, you pretty much nailed their best in your list.
"Out of Time" was considered.
Wild Horses always makes my list.
Mick Taylor had a hand in writing more than a couple of their best tunes in their best era, but screwed him out of the credits & cash , as far as what I’d read from Taylor himself & others along the way. Makes sense, as the rarified air around that era left the room when Taylor departed
Hey, how about 3 separate Rolling Stones songlists on Brian Jones years, Mick Taylor years and Ronnie Wood years! That would be something!
I enjoy the Mick Taylor era and he always brings something to his run of albums
But i enjoy the Brian Jones Era especially Aftermath through Beggars Banquet even tho agruably Brian started to contributed more as a muilti Instrumentalist but he is more felt on Aftermath
I enjoy Paint it Black,Ruby Tuesday,Under My Thumb,She Loves You,Child of the Moon,Jumpin Jack Flash,and She's a Rainbow
I probably would have had the song tell me included, its such an underrated song from the 1st album
Subconsciously knew that the next one had something to do with the Who, as another 60's band from London...
Love your playlist, but i will add dead flowers, winter, and time waits for no one too ✌😁
All three were definitely considered.
@@JTCurtisMusic hahaha, yesss, i know its so hard to pick some songs from a great band.... btw, i like your channel, i think we have a same taste of music and i like your video about 10 album list.

Good playlist! I wonder--what do you think of their songs "Paint It Black?" and "Angie"? Personally, those are my top favorites!
"Angie" was considered for the playlist, though I prefer their ballads "Moonlight Mile" and "Wild Horses". "Paint it Black" while I like it, has never really been my favorite, same can be said for a lot of their mid-60s hits, their psychedelia period. Still, I can definitely see why it's so popular.
@@JTCurtisMusic Wild Horses is a great one. I’ll have to listen to Moonlight Mile, though. What do you think of “Neighbors?”
@@mayazauberman that's song kinda sucked not gonna lie
@@stijnos244 yeah, it wasn’t their best. At least it wasn’t “She’s A Rainbow” though.
@@mayazauberman yeah she’s a Rainbow is a masterpiece
* The Last Time
* Dead Flowers (Live at Marquee Club)
* Just my Imagination
* Carol (Get yer Ya yas out)
* Let's Spend the Night Together
All great tunes!
Beast of Burden is my top favoriteeeee
We have a lot in common when it comes to the Stones. Sticky Fingers is my favorite and the Mick Taylor years my favorite. Moonlight Mile. Cant You Hear Me Knocking and 19th nervous breakdown is probably my favorite older stones tune and Live Midnight Rambler. Oooh and I love Sway. Mick Taylor and Nicky Hopkins. Cant get much better than that. Goats Head Soup is very underappreciated and doo doo doo doo. Heartbreaker is my favorite. I would have included Monkey Man from Let it Bleed just for the intro. Shattered is probably my favorite from Some Girls
"Monkey Man" was definitely considered.
I'm kind of heartbroken that the words "Dead Flowers" were never uttered in this video. Still, it's hard to say what it should replace.
It is a great song but I couldn't put every song from Sticky Fingers on this list...
Tattoo You is their last album I fancy, but still 27 tracks on my playlist from the past 40 years, even more then Nirwana and Foo Fighters combinded, not bad.
I had to relisten to Coming Down Again, it's not on my playlist. Sounds rather sluggish and monotonous to me, as most slow country rock ballads do, as sympathetic
/empathetic they might be , nothing to get excited about. My top four from Sticky Fingers are rather Bitch/Sister Morphine/Wild Horses/Sway.
Sister Morphine seems to have some curse on it, probably (or very likely? ) because of the subject/lyrics, but the build up and music is incredible.
One of the most haunting rock tracks ever. Start Me Up, Honky Tonk Woman and Can't You Hear won't even make it to a top 40; I like the instrumental ending of Can't You... ,
but that riff/rhythm is too stuttering, the song doesn't flow, and i like my rock songs flowing swiftly..
Would gladly change them for 2000 Light Years, Have You Seen Your Mother, Get Off Of My Cloud, Under my Thumb, Emotional Rescue, It's Only Rock n Roll etc....
You should do a playlist video on Pink Floyd
Agreed
Pink Floyd rules
Hard. The Dark Side of the Moon is actually one and only song. Hard to tear them apart.
@@daviebowie8665 every album is a song of theres
@@JPproductions303 That leaves the only option of picking your favourite one. *XD* JTCurtis already spoke of The Moon and Wish You Were Here as his, so there is nothing of Pink Floyd to show anymore.
When are you doing best of Nickleback and Hootie and the blowfish? 😁
Actually the challenge would be to make a Comp album that doesn’t include any songs from 1968 to 1974!
@@davidkornblatt851 it’s still doable, but it certainly wouldn’t be the same.
Tops🤘🏼
I think pretty much everyone will agree '68-'72/3 is their golden era; and you're right about the late era from '89 on - it just isn't as good as early. Yet - I would very much include "B2B" among their best albums. Somehow after that dreadful "Voodoo" album they pulled it together again. "Out of Control" and "Saint of Me" are excellent. Plus they did what every band should do: they took the album on the road. This is how all great Stones songs became classics; on live stages. PS (and I say this respectfully), but you are playing the CYHMK riff wrong. Edit - when talking about the huge Stones catalog it can also be fun to make a whole other playlist that focuses only on solo efforts. Jagger and Keith, and esp. Ron Wood, but also early solo Taylor, and Wyman have done a lot of great stuff. This, of course applies also to solo Beatles.
Sympathy for the devil>You can’t always get what you want
Goats Head was their last real album. The next 50 years was a celebrating their first 10 years
Beast of Burden
brown sugar, paint it black...
Both were definitely considered.
@@JTCurtisMusic yes but I think they should've been on the main list, but that's just my opinion, love your videos btw ;)
@@vojtaz9518 It's definitely a challenge to compile these. "Paint it Black" has been a little overplayed for me. "Satisfaction" too, I just think it's such an important milestone in rock history, it wouldn't be right to leave it off. And I already had so many tracks off of STICKY FINGERS, I felt including "Brown Sugar" would be too many. And yeah I guess 2021 hindsight haven't been kind to this tune, but it's still a fun rock and roll number.
sway final's, oh god
I d'ont like the stone but the Streetheart version of under my thumb it's very good!
First ten years of the Stones for me. I love the Brian Jones era. A top 10 is always hard to do for any band that had a lot of great songs.
Why is Brown Sugar not ìncluded?
Mick went wooo
Stones or Beatles?
Stones: Like
Beatles: Comment
Too many GR8 songs to try to shorten them down that much. All the songs You Picked were FANTASTIC, but Not Much for the Incredible songs that DIDDN'T get radio play. It was Kinda Like a Greatest hits album from those years. Nothing from "It's Only Rock'n'roll..." or "Emotional Rescue" at all!? I'll say "Fingerprint File" with that Crazy Bass played by M.Taylor - that's as Beautiful as Any Guitar riff in Your Timeline. Also, I Don't have a 10 WORST Stones Songs (Peronally I Don't Need to hear "Angie" more than 1-2x/yr - But I Still think It's a Gr8 Song). I Can Listen to any of their albums in that time period (B4 & After as Well) in Full - & Enjoy it ALL!Still - I Agree. All The Songs You picked ARE Songs that I Love TOO.
"Fingerprint File" was definitely considered, also "Time Waits for No One" also from ONLY ROCK N ROLL. I never got into EMOTIONAL RESCUE but "She's So Cold" is a fun number.
What about to get off my cloud
Rotten List.....The Stones went downhill after Brian was fired,.....This guy misses such excellent tracks as "The Last Time"
"19th Nervous Breakdown"....."Ruby Tuesday"......"Lady Jane"....."She's A Rainbow"
"19th Nervous Breakdown" is in the bonus tracks. "The Last Time" is a good early classic and "Lady Jane" is an interesting one as well. "She's a Rainbow" and "Ruby Tuesday" never really did it for me.
works for me, I posted my list before I saw yours, We be agreed.
I would've put more some girls on the album, and also she's a rainbow, wild horses, angie, under my thumb and sweet virginia
Do Led Zeppelin and you should do live streams agen
Sway
Actually most of those songs were considered for this list. It's hard to narrow it down. "Monkey Man" and "Sweet Virginia" just barely missed being in it.
@@JTCurtisMusic good good! I’d hate for people to not know these songs, or only listen to a select few! They would be missing out! :)
How we disagree! - The early years is my absolute favorite period. Actually most of what they made after "Aftermath" (with very few exceptions) is not my thing at all. I count "Let It Bleed" among the three most overrated albums ever.
For me it's the firs four albums ("Rolling Stones", "No. 2", "Out Of Our Heads" and "Aftermath"), together with the singles and EP's from the same period.
Trust me! - I really have tried: listened and struggled - and listened and struggled again. But it's like bumping into a massive wall. I simply can't move beyond. There are some few songs here and there. But while I like almost everything they did in their early years, the songs I like from several later decades output can be counted on one hand.
So we probably doesn't agree about anything when it comes to Stones. While you want to hear "Gimme Shelter" and "Can't Hear Me Knocking", I prefer listening to "Tell Me" and "When Blue Turns To Grey".
And Talking about compilations. In the beginning of your video you had my favorite Stones-compilation standing in the background, "Around and Around".
I guess I'm not really a Stones-fan. But I really love some of the early stuff. "As Tears Goes By" is beautiful song, especially in the Marian Faithful version. Maybe I'm just very conservative. It's up for discussion whether it's proper or ironic, that my absolute favorite Stones-song is "Out Of Time".
By the way: I must correct an error: "I Wanna Be Your Man" was the second single. The first was a cover of Chuck Berrys "Come On".
Cover King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard 🦖
What about Chuck Berry?
I agree! - They did a great job on several Berry-songs. Love their version of "Come On" and the expended "Down The Road Apiece". There were also some great covers of Muddy Waters and Jimmy Reed.
Sorry if I misunderstood and your remark was a suggestion for a video. But I would still agree. Like to see such a video.
No paint it black????? Their best song
