      Suggestion for you, since you both seem to like a funky groove: Robert Palmer, the "Sneaking Sally Through the Alley" trilogy. Always played together, "Sailing Shoes", "Hey Julia", and "Sneaking...". You get The Meters, Lowell George, Allen Toussaint, a Neville brother or 2, smooth backing vocals, and Palmer. Good listen.

    It's a playlist song as soon as the opening guitar riff hits. After 50 years of listening to the Stones I've come to the realization that of all their great songs this might be their best, right there with Gimme Shelter, Brown Sugar, Honky Tonk Woman, Beast of Burden and Midnight Rambler. The reverb on your playback gave Can't You Hear Me Knockin' real depth sonically.

      I got into Exile a bit late. For me, when I really got into them as a teenager, Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed and Sticky Fingers were the holy trinity of albums with Get Yer Ya-Yas out coming in between as a fantastic live album. Funnily enough, the very first album that I really loved by them and the first that I got as a regular studio album (I initially got to like them from hearing a couple of 60s-early 70s compilation double albums that friends had) was Their Satanic Majesties Request. I really liked 2,000 light years from home. Then, when I bought TSMR, I fell in love with the weird mix of hippie psychedelia and hard rock. Going from Sing This All Together to Citadel was a real blast. Good to see "Can't you hear me knocking?" getting some love here. It was always one of the big reasons why Sticky Fingers was one of their top albums for me personally.

Bobby Keys (RIP) had been around since the late 50's and has played on hundreds of top hits, He was the GOAT rock and roll sax player hands down. 'Sticky Fingers' came out in the spring of 71 along with 'LA Woman' by The Doors. These two albums were great and we listened to them both in their entireties all the time that summer because you just had to hear the next song!!!... Every song on these two albums were perfect! Masterpiece's!

    The guitar solo is Mick Taylor. Keith plays the opening chord riff and he maintains that 'tone" throughout, in the left channel. Mick plays "straight" rhythm in the right channel.
    I've always noticed that the Stones usually "bury" Bill Wyman's bass in the mix so that it's felt more than it's heard.

They have a massive catalog. Mick Jagger is like 78 and has a 5 yr old. Their shows are rockin' still. They've been together and touring as a band for 60 years! That's incredible. They've covered so many rock styles and mixed them together, it's mind boggling. You just never know now what Mick Jagger and Keith Richards are going to try next. They definitely keep up with the times.
