    Interesting choice for guitar. My intro to the Stones was also Hot Rocks. Check out You Cant Always GetWhat You Want from Love You Live. It is imho the greatest solo of all time. Ronnie hits every note on the board!

    Hi Doug - Stones Yeah 👍!
    "Get yer ya-ya's out" was my first Stones LP and this tune is really enjoyable to play and jam or improvise along with.

      @@jannic_54 I just love the laid back coolness of "Stray Cat Blues" on that album. The way Charlie plays is just awesome. The version of "Sympathy for the devil" is also the best, by far, they've ever done. The mix and master of the album , considering it's live and 54 years old is just fantastic.
      "Satisfaction" wasn't included on the record, but is also the best version I've ever heard. It can be heard on youtube music along with other tracks that wasn't included.

    I must have played this song a hundred times and really thought you’d teach me how slightly wrong I was, again. But it didn’t happen this time, pheew. One thing though : I never thought about the Stones slowing down that tape but now.. the very dark warm-up intro, the pitch and Jagger’s deep voice would make this a very valid theory.

    What a classic Stones song. Keith was ahead of the times with this song following his 'Keep It Simple, Stupid' - 'KISS' approach. The E tuning for slide guitar part is so f'kn obvious. A great jammin' song.
    I had known for years the incorrect concert pitch, however I believe the in-between pitch makes it sound moodier/darker. I used to think the Stones, as did many other bands at the time experimented with pitch. A very good lesson. Good work.

  • @Johngonefishin
    @Johngonefishin 15 днів тому +1

    Rumor is that Keith used his beat-up Maton guitar on Midnight Rambler and Gimme Shelter, probably thru a Vox amp.

    There’s a UA-cam video by HJ’s Corner with isolated Midnight Rambler instruments which may possibly help you hear what’s being played.

    Midnight rambler rocks, you gotta have that capo on the seventh fret . If you play it without the capo it’s just OK. You put the capo on and it comes alive. I can chug away for hours on that,, a Belgium bootleg is the definitive performance for me

    • @jillparu9511

    I’m not sure if he did the slide part, but Ry Cooder had recorded some things on this album. There’s this album, called “Jamming with Edward” that was recorded at the same time.

    Although Let It Bleed was released in 69 it was 28th November 69 so it’s more a 1970 album to me.

    Grab a blues harp in the key of E (tune guitar to harp) and get a friend to play along and the song comes alive.
