The english have a talent for copying other peoples things and making it look like its their invention. This song for example and on a non musical note all of their so called maritime explorations which were really just copying known sea routes that the spanish and portuguese had done over 200 years before they even had a navy (yes the spanish were in the pacific islands 200 years before captain cook, the portuguese had india before English even Knew how to sail in the 1500's. Pompous fakes

@geepstar u missed my point. This clown wrote about the back up white singers in the Preston version as being better than the Stones. I don't give a damn about black and white issues as I like all types of music.

@JoshSwartzberg What w the Black and White bit Just devisive, no substance to it : The Stones at that time cut some great records , some of which were blues covers some better than the originals some not nearly as good.

Yardbirds & Stones helped a lot to re awaken us to our own music, born in the American melting pot, Blues.

@cinephonik One more time, you're out of your mind!

[JoshSwartzberg]

@cinephonik I've got to say it again, are you nuts??? those white boys are the most conservative piece of trash of what was completely wrong with America and you say the Stones come out looking bad, you must be from "Up with People".

[JoshSwartzberg]

@baytomay It's a Stones songs ya ignorant p! It was an honor that after covering so many black american songs the Stones were covered by two great African American singers, Billy and Otis Redding did Satisfaction some years later.

@cinephonik Are you fucking nuts??????????? Nothing against Billy Preston, he's doing what he likes covering the Stones.
