My Mom had these records. As a rocking young child...I loved this song....used to jam out to it while my Mom hung the laundry out on the line ! Great times !
I was 12 years old in '69 ...My sister bought their records since the start in the '60s...I always liked them as a little boy...but this song made me take my allowance money and buy my first Stones LP...been a diehard since...GOD made the STONES and The STONES are GODs..
@claptongroupie Thank you very much...I love Clapton...Saw him for the first time after the 461 Ocean Blvd. LP with Freddie King as the Opener. Shreveport and Clapton played a 30 minute set with King ...Heaven ...
Yeah ,this is probably the Stones` best, amongst many .It works you up or sumpin`, and you wanna make love to ya` girl when it`s on (I hope I haven`t been sexist with that statement by leaving gay people out ).
sometimes the music may make me fart- and that's even better, it elicits a visceral response within... and drives a deeper appreciative notion. Sort of like a uterine orgasm for a lady?
Mick Taylor was and is such a master at the guitar. And he was such a great looking guy! Yes, I love his smiles in this song!!!! He was the "baby" of the group and did most of the leads on their songs while he was with them. Keith did most of the rhythm... Like I said, a master guitarist!
Mick Taylor is such an amazing guitarist - i know i'm not the only one who thinks this was the Stones' best line-up, but Richards was just such an asshole to him - it's no wonder he booked after 5 years
Want Jesus Christ to reveal Himself to you? Obey His gospel.
He has promised:
"He that has my commandments, and keeps them, he it is that loves me: and he that loves me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him." (John 14:21 Holy Bible KJV)
My fav period as well. This has to be close to Dec of 69. I'm a fanatic of the film Gimme Shelter, and here MJ has that same Leo shirt on, and his hair length and Keiths, they all look very close to the scenes in GS, where they're at Muscle Shoals studios. As far as I'm concerned their best period. I don't even own anything after Steel Wheels. It just isn't good. After Undercover, their sound changed drastically.
from Mexico, the Rolling Stones are the best band of rock, and the living momies, please give the secrets... I need reyoung my face; tell me Do you use cream of donky milk?, please, Do you use iron for your skin? I want be young again!!!!!!!

I don't think this is a recording. The vocals are too raw compared to what was on the record. Where is the high backup vocals? As far as who played what on the record I don't have a clue. I don't think Richards would be the only guitarist to play. He isn't that egotistical a guitarist and I know he admired Taylor as a guitarist. But I guess ya just never know.
The one thing I miss most about them playing this song now is Mick Taylor's awesome lead guitar lick at 0:35 to 0:42. That was always my favorite part of the song!
anytime u see a live performance with talor with the stones u know it's gonna be amazing what the hell were they thinking when they let him leave they really fucked up not giving him the credit he desserved they shoulda been kissing his ass after losing brian jones they were lucky to find a guitar player that damn good and they let him go and they never come out with anything that even comes close to there music with taylor or jones
Aww look at Mick Taylor's sweet little face the whole time! He smiles and everything! I just wanna go up der and give im a pinch on the cheek!!! Love tht cute ass face!
Granted Mick Jagger smiles, but he was high as hell.
@Plimsoul97 yeah i know, but on let it bleed were only two song recorded with mick taylor (honky tonk women and live with me) keith played the rest all alone on guitar
This is the studio music track with a live vocal (I mean, who's playing the harp?). Very common for TV shows in those days. The mix is a little different though with the guitars being much louder than on "Let it Bleed." All the guitars were played by Keith.
The one thing I miss most about them playing this song now is Mick Taylor's awesome lead guitar lick at 0:35 to 0:42. That was always my favorite part of the song!
@mario64guy I'm no expert, but I thought Keith Richards always played lead for this song, or at least on the studio version. I do agree that Mick is an amazing lead player, but correct me if I'm wrong about that...
@mario64guy I don't understand the fascination with Mick Taylor. Anyway, if you check the album credits, I believe you will find that Keith played ALL of the guitars on the recording of Gimme Shelter. The music on this clip is from the original recording; Mick J. would sometimes sing a live vocal over the recorded background on TV appearances.
@TheMaestro214 It's the live concerts where Taylor really elevates the Stones. Lots of controversy about his creative contributions to the group. But there's not a bit of controversy about the decline in the live shows and I would argue their creativity as well. They looked & sounded like a deflated tire after Taylor left. If you know people over 50 who saw them with and without Taylor they will say the same. There was really NO COMPARISM. With Taylor, they were the best R&R band EVER.

@mario64guy the lead guitar is all keith, and obviously they are miming to the studio track. The live version with taylor isnt as good as the original in my opinion.
@mario64guy The music is the same as on Let it Bleed, only vocal is actually live. All guitars you hear are played by Keith. The awesome lead guitar lick is played by Keith.
@mario64guy The Mick Taylor catalog is my favorite part of their legacy. Think about it...Exile On Main Street, Let It Bleed and Sticky Fingers – all made in an astonishingly productive five-year period between 1969 and 1974, when Taylor was the Stones’ lead guitarist.
@mario64guy ....that is obviously the original recording and the band is pretending to play live. Jagger's vocals are the only part that is live. The lead guitar is Keith not Mick Taylor on this piece.
It is interesting to note that mick sticks out like a sore thumb - his BMI, whilst still probably healthy (back then at least), maybe 25 ish, whilst mick apparently has maintained a bmi of a low 20...interesting.....
@Gnomebe Body Mass Index....yes I have a great deal of interest in nutrition...yeh a bit off topic but an interesting observation.....essentially mick looks a healthy weight, mick and the rest of 'em look emaciated....
great video btw mick taylor does not play a lick on this to be honest all guitars are keith. the song itself is keith's . taylor was part of the band by the time of it's release though
This Video is Awesome except whoever is filming it has missed probably the best part: footage of Keith's Guitar Work during this amazing song, especially the intro. How do you not catch Keith's Intro guitar work and in looks like Keith was doing the lead guitar on this version because every time I see M. Taylor he is doing rhythm strumming . Great to see these guys playing this song, I love it, what a cool video. Did you notice that no one was playing harmonica when that part came up? Hum
@claptongroupie It's timeless. This came out when I was 13 or 14...I'm 54 now and it's as bad ass as it was when I was a kid. This is how you define perfection.
I still don't get it, how come the Beatles manage so much hype when it's obvious the Stones have way better songs and music in general....anyway they still around so I'm happy :)
@fenrriho 100% true, the stones are way better than the beatles. The beatles continue get hyped cause that is all that is left. Half the band is dead and their fans hang on to the past and reissued recordings trying to recapture the past. Fortunately the stones have continued on, truly standing the test of time!
No, Charlie's NOT stoned. This (and Honky Tonk W) were taped THE DAY after Brian Jones died. None of them wanted to be there but they made the commitment prior to that.
This was actually taped 6 months after Brian died, in Dec. '69. You're thinking of the taping of You Can't Always Get What You Want on the David Frost Show (also on youtube).
@stevenjromero I think they are all stoned..Jagger has a major head rush, and they all look like they have a buzz . But who cares anyway if they are or aren't ..their still the Stones :D
@RollingOrmond No I didn't say that. I don't think I said anything about "Too Much Blood." By the looks of my message I'm not sure what I was trying to say. I think all I was trying to say was pretty much everything the Stones did before 1981 was awesome and had that something special that can sometimes make the hairs on your arm stand on end and then pretty much everything after 1981 by them does nothing for me.
My favorite song ever. Really. It's taken me half my life to decide which of all of them was my all-time favorite of any kind. This is so easily it. I recall getting "Hot Rocks One" with this song, and "Midnight Rambler" on the same side... They never sounded half as good after Mick Taylor left the band.
LOVE IT! just reminds me why this is my all time favorite Stones song.i can remember dancing around to this song when i was a little girl! Thanks for putting this up! I'm saving it!
Gosh don't know why ... could be because I was one of the children of the Revolution ... it touch me soooo much in the 70s but surely did and is one of my fav.
Vocals are not playback... And i thijk guitars too and maybe all are played live.....or ??? I can compare this to many versions and its not same....Mabe im lost...BUT great Song...Best stones song IMO specially Mt era live versionS
@mynthon11 Vocals are definitely live. Powerful, apocalyptic song. Resonates down the years. Still has the ability to make the hairs on my neck stand up.
My Mom had these records. As a rocking young child...I loved this song....used to jam out to it while my Mom hung the laundry out on the line ! Great times !

No, Charlie's NOT stoned. This (and Honky Tonk W) were taped THE DAY after Brian Jones died. None of them wanted to be there but they made the commitment prior to that.

@stevenjromero
This was actually taped 6 months after Brian died, in Dec. '69. You're thinking of the taping of You Can't Always Get What You Want on the David Frost Show (also on youtube).

@stevenjromero I think they are all stoned..Jagger has a major head rush, and they all look like they have a buzz . But who cares anyway if they are or aren't ..their still the Stones :D

@stevenjromero According to the Stones chronicle, this was taped on December the 12th which was after Altamont

@RollingOrmond No I didn't say that. I don't think I said anything about "Too Much Blood." By the looks of my message I'm not sure what I was trying to say. I think all I was trying to say was pretty much everything the Stones did before 1981 was awesome and had that something special that can sometimes make the hairs on your arm stand on end and then pretty much everything after 1981 by them does nothing for me.

My favorite song ever. Really. It's taken me half my life to decide which of all of them was my all-time favorite of any kind. This is so easily it. I recall getting "Hot Rocks One" with this song, and "Midnight Rambler" on the same side... They never sounded half as good after Mick Taylor left the band.
