    I suggest listening to the entire Sticky Fingers album, which this song comes from. Many view Sticky Fingers, along with Exile on Main Street, as the Stones at their peak. Let it Bleed is also great. But Sticky Fingers has always been my favorite album, not only of the Stones, but of all time.

    The "crappy" production by Jimmy Miller - great "golden era" Stones producer from Beggars Banquet ('68) to It's Only Rock And Roll ('74) - is actually very deliberate. And seemingly effective, since you did enjoy the record a lot...and I get that you appreciated the seemingly lo-fi vibe...I'm addressing the notion of "crappy" 😉
    Check out Miller's production of the mid-60's Spencer Davis Group hit "I'm A Man" (which is what initially caught the Stones' attention). That sound is *supposed* to blend*, not wind up pulled apart, strewn across the soundscape showcasing the innards of the mix (so to speak) as may work for other, more tech based music.
    Jimmy Miller, a drummer himself, had a way of sometimes mixing Charlie's drums very minimally, subtly, creatively... like say on Let It Bleed's "Gimme Shelter" and - yes - Sticky Fingers' "Can'tYou Hear Me Knocking".
    Those 60's and 70's Stones mixes could be a lot cleaner, sometimes were...but who would generally want that, we mostly prefer perfect ;)
    Anyway great job, thank you. Very much appreciate your sincere, intelligent reactions, pardon the essay...just FYI
    *Like, say, Howlin' Wolf or Muddy Waters or Chuck Berry as heard on Chess Records.

    It’s funny, this production is absolutely perfect to my ears, and I was born in ‘91, so I’m not yelling at clouds over here. I guess some people now associate drums being extremely high in the mix with “good” production values.

    "The main song lasts for two minutes and 43 seconds, then transforms into an extended improvisational jam. The entire track was captured in one take, with the jam being a happy accident; the band had assumed the tape machine had been stopped, and were surprised to find the entire session had been captured. Originally they were going to end the song before the jam started, but they were so pleased with the jam that they decided to keep it in. Besides the regular Rolling Stones members Mick Jagger (vocals), Keith Richards (guitar), Mick Taylor (guitar), Charlie Watts (drums), and Bill Wyman (bass), the track also features conga player Rocky Dijon, saxophonist Bobby Keys, organist Billy Preston and additional percussion by producer Jimmy Miller."

    Mick has always been so over the top with lyrics. To me, he always seems to define the expression: 'going there'. But then, that is art, and needs to be defined from mass production work.
    Though Mick and Keith seem to attempt to appropriate all the credit, this band is such a conglomeration of incredible artists. Perhaps they intentionally don't give credit so fans can discover them the way Mick and Keith did, by reading the album covers. It's a nice thought.
    The fact that each one of these artists was willing to cooperate, and the material itself was so capable of acting as their canvas in such a productive way. I just know that it's not something I'm likely to experience again. Once you're hooked, I think you're going to want to hear, and will cherry pick songs from every period of Stones as your favorites.

All in all a good pic from a faithful listener. I think the Stone put a lot of blues in the making of their songs.

    I wouldn't say that The Stones were "early" Rock n Roll ", but they were there from the beginnings of what we called ROCK from about 1966 onwards.
    Rock n Roll was the dance music from the " Red Houses " of the deep south, cotton fields and tobacco farm slave communities.
    Probably from the 1940's but made popular in the 1950's when white boys and bands sterilised it along with the Blues , making it suitable for white mans radio and the major record labels.
    By the late 1950's most popular music was either Blues / Jazz based , jug band ( called skiffle in the UK ), totally insipid or mundane crap.
    Elvis ruled the pop world with his sterilised Rock n Roll and trashed Blues, and then The Beatles from England took advantage of the poor state of world Pop music and rivalled King Elvis.
    Being good wholesome and almost talentless boy next door musicians The Beatles set a neat, clean cut wholesome pop image that had to be smashed before it ruined teenagers for ever........Enter The Rolling Stones.
    ( The Animals should have derailed The Beatles , but they were just a great singer with insufficient musical backing ).
    The 4 or 5 uni students that were The Rolling Stones were not much different to the 4 Beatles , not from the gutter at all......in fact Mick Jagger is a product of the very expensive public ( private ) school system.
    Brian Jones was such a quiet goody goody 2 shoes he should have been a Beatle or a Mersey Beat insipid pop musician .
    Charlie Watts was into Jazz and hatted the movement to Rock.
    Keef Richards was a bluesman.
    Along with The Who the Stones dropped their trousers and MOONED the establishment and The Beatles and helped form the genre now known as ROCK , hard rock, heavy rock, heavy metal and Metal.
    SO ...... Rocks parents were Afro American but ROCK as we know it was born in England from English kids who loved the Blues and / or Jazz and Blues / Jazz musicians who often played in Skiffle bands to earn a living .
    Many of the great English ROCK bands even had hits with Skiffle songs.
    By 1965 The Stones were the worlds leading band in devil worship and evil ROCK music.......and they not only outlived The Beatles ( and the poxy Mersey Beat ) but still performing to packed stadiums as god and the church are getting old and forgotten . lol
