This is what I love about reaction channels like this. I’m 66 years old and Zeppelin has been and will always be my favorite band. Growing up of course I heard these songs by the Stones a million times but I wasn’t particularly a Stones guy. In fact I never even bought this album. But sitting back and just listening to this in a different way so many years later just makes me realize how phenomenal this band was. I’ve always felt that the trilogy of greatness when it came to classic rock was the Beatles, Stones and Zeppelin. Of course, there are many fantastic bands, other than them. But if somebody had never heard anything before and said well, give me an idea of what rock from the 60s and 70s was all about, all you really need to do is play those three bands!
The apex of the Stones really coincides with Nicky Hopkins becoming their no. 1 sideman/de facto member on the keys and the arrival of producer Jimmy Miller, who, before drugs rendered him useless, had a special knack for percussion and “building up” their compositions. I’d also say Keith Richards really rose to the occasion during Brian Jones’ futility and damn near does it all on Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed. Lastly, Mick and Keith’s songwriting reaches full maturation. They could do no wrong during this period. Also, for more context regarding Rock and Roll Circus, the Who were fresh off their North American Tour and were incredibly honed as a live act. The Stones were just getting back into live music after a nearly two-year hiatus and were still dealing with a disintegrating Brian Jones, who is a sad shell of his former self here. Despite it not being the best showcase of the group, it is quite a testament to their endurance, especially Jagger, as they had been up for nearly two days orchestrating this whole event, totally reliant on uppers, and did not officially perform until about 2 in the morning.
Thanks for the suggestion, Dev, being a monkey according to Chinese astrology, I'm definitely going to try to make *"I'M A MONKEY!!* my ringtone. 😅🐒📱🎶✌🏼😉❤️ This was already a must watch with the pairing of the closing songs of this great album, add the live version from 'Rock'n'Roll Circus', the bonus of the brand-new to me P.P. Arnold version with Clapton producing and playing makes it a red-letter day! Halle-yee-hah, guy and gal, thanks a bunch, cheers and ttyl8r. Much love ❤️
Such an awesome album. Stones have been my favorite band since I first heard the Hot Rocks album when I was 9 years old. I’m 61 now and they are still by far my favorite. This might just be my favorite album of their four ultra classics (Beggars Banquet, Let it Bleed, Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main Street). I enjoyed your journey through this album so much, I am definitely here for more of the same from their other albums 🤘
I bought the Rock & Roll Circus DVD and CD when they were released in the mid 90’s. It’s a great time capsule of the period and the perfomances are special. The Who steals the show. Theres also a performance by Jethro Tull with Black Sabbath’s Tony Iommi standing in (miming) for Mick Abrahams during a studio recorded “live” version of Song for Jeffrey with the only real “live” part being Ian Anderson’s vocals. Also great performances by Taj Mahal, Marianne Faithful and the one off super band The Dirty Mac performing a great version of the Beatles’ Yer Blues featuring The Jimi Hendrix Experience’s Mitch Mitchell on drums, Eric Clapton and John Lennon on guitars and Keith Richards on bass. And Yoko Ono IN the black bag - doing some weird performance art dressed as a Glad Bag. They also did a second song called Whole Lotta Yoko - which is too much Yoko for most people! PS Also not to be missed is Sympathy for the Devil from this show, featuring a coked up Jagger (in case you didn’t notice that from this performance). Jagger channeling is inner and (temporarily tatted up) “outer” Lucifer for this one.
Such a great album!! And a great performance on Rock and Roll Circus, but The Who just blew the place apart with their live version of "A Quick One (While He's Away). The Who just lit the place up with their energy and Mick's ego couldn't deal with it. You have to watch the movie, it's great!! In the Jethro Tull portion of their performance, the guitarist playing with is none other than Tony Iommi from Black Sabbath. Great reaction guys!!
The Who were certainly a live force to be reckoned with. They were fresh off their lengthy North American Tour when they did Rock and Roll Circus and were one of many “wake up” calls for the Stones as the latter were just making a return to live music after a long hiatus and year-long foray into baroque pop and psychedelia. When watching Circus, one can tell they're just not as refined, and they had a serious Brian Jones problem. His guitar skills had eroded, and his mental/physical health had diminished his involvement with the band. It’s not surprising they'd soon make a change (a change that had to be made because Brian couldn't even attain a US Visa) before embarking on their 1969 North American Tour.

I bought this album for Christmas 1969. I was 17 years old.

monkey man is also in the Movie Goodfellas!
Mr. Jimmy = Producer of the album Jimmy Miller.
"Let it Bleed" is the Stones masterpiece.
Both of these songs wouldn't be the same without the great Nicky Hopkins on the piano!
Al Kooper did piano and French Horn for You Can’t Always Get What You Want
@@arjaylee My mistake, you are correct!
I highly recommend Keith Richards’s autobiography, “Life.”
best cd ending for the best cd ever
Awesome Review of the Album! The best !❤
Waiting for ‘Sticky Fingers ‘

Hot Rocks was my first exposure as well, probably around the same age (or maybe 8).
The Stones felt upstaged by The Who, specifically,Mick. The Who did " Quick one" ( while he's away) and stole the show. Check it out.
Check out the Who's performance on the rock and roll circus.

P.P. Arnold recorded Tin Soldier with Small Faces
They got a local choir for their Havana Moon concert in Cuba.
You should check out Yer Blues by The Dirty Mac from this show. The Dirty Mac included Lennon, Clapton, Richards and Mitch Mitchell.
I like you guys because I love the Stones . Great stuff !
I can't wait till they do Sticky Fingers
Read Keith Richards autobiography, which is called “life”
