If you must know, The Rolling Stones used to be my favorite band of all time. While I’m not actually ashamed of this, I would say my love for them hit the skids for over a decade.
The other day, in my car, this is the song that brought me back after my long departure from listening to the Stones.
I’m basically gonna keep my mouth shut about everything I could say except that in this recording, Mick’s still pretty (really pretty) and has a voice with which to sing.
If you want to go a bit further, look up “Loving Cup” or “Dead Flowers,” live, from the same era. Sweet indeed!

I listened to A LOT of Stones in college…..they followed me along on many long runs, and I danced (and drank) with them into the wee hours at countless parties with the cross country team. Can I admit it (gulp!) but I had a mad crush on a guy who did wicked impersonations of Mick. In fact I think he actually thought he was Mick. Whenever I hear one of their songs it takes me back to those dirty, sweaty basements in Wisconsin…holding a plastic cup in one hand and wildly dancing to the Stones.
Sue, I always think I’m the only one who drank and danced in basement bars in college. Everything I’ve known in Western MA has been after kids, so things are pretty toned down. Everyone (but me) seems so mature. I’m shocked, shocked that you engaged in typical collegiate-behavior back in the day. Long live the Rolling Stones! K
