Any appreciation of music from this era absolutely must include The Rolling Stones. It's amazing to me that they're still around playing music. They toured Europe just last year and they're in their late 70s (at least). Anyway, they're an important band. Paint It Black is one of my favorite songs of theirs, as is Gimme Shelter, which I highly recommend. Then there's Angie, You Can't Always Get What You Want, Can't You Hear Me Knocking, Sympathy For the Devil, and Wild Horses (just to start with). Happy listening. 🤘🏽💜
This is a rabbit hole you may not wanna crawl back out of..Their mind-boggling catalog is very deep and goes way back to the early 60's, and I've been on the ride the whole time! (yes, I'm old)..Hard to pick a favorite. if I had to it would be "Can't you hear me knockin'?"..I believe their best years were between '69/'74, with guitarist Mick Taylor..I'm not alone on that...Enjoy the hole!
These guys started in the early 60s around the time of the Beatles, and the two were huge all through the 60s. The biggest sensations in England. And the world, really. They started the 'British Invasion' and set the tone for rock music to come. The Beatles were of course more popular, but the Stones had a big cult following.
Contrary to another commenter I saw, I preferred the early years of the Stones, when they had Brian Jones. What happened to him was really sad. Songs like this one, Ruby Tuesday, Mother's little helper, Get off of my Cloud, 2000 Lightyears from Home.
The Stones have many sounds. Mostly went blues/rock in the 70's. B4 this, in the late 60's, they were in competiition w. the Beatles as the #1 band. Beggar's Banquet was my fave album. Hard and a little nasty/funky.

I really love watching you youngsters listening to the music I grew up with. Surprises y’all that we had the best music ever made doesn’t it? 💜👵🏼✌🏼🎸🔥
And of course 'Satisfaction".
Sad song ....about a funeral
Good music is timeless
It's important to research what was going on in society during the time the music came out. It will give you a better appreciation for it
1966
Ok now you gotta check out Duran Duran's version of it 🩷
This is Vietnam War music
I think you'd like to listen to Elvis. Try "if i can dream." It was a tribute to Martin Luther King, whom he was friends with.
