+JJ Flash: the original 3 minuter and not the bloated, prog-rockish crap the Stones stuff morphed into in later years.

My neighbour for a couple of decades was Linda Watts [/Globus].

Sympathy for the Devil is my favourite song, full stop.

The film about the making of the song with jean Luc Godard is amazing - if you fast forward through all the arty bollocks.

Definitely my favourite Stones song. My youngest also loves it, but only because she thinks there's monkeys singing in it.

This + Sympathy for the Devil
a plus one for me...

I spent years living in Fremantle, Western Australia. When I got there it was still basking in the glow of hosting the America's Cup which had transformed the seedy little port town, rough working man style pubs had become boutique breweries, a couple of Italian immigrants had introduced al fresco style cafe seating on the street and the place was heavily populated by an eclectic mix of students, artists, musos and the largest community of followers of the guru Osho outside of the US or India. It was a glorious cesspit of debauchery.... the cafes were the go to for everyone, sit outside in the summer heat, observe and decide which party to go to after the pubs closed.

I will never forget the night some bunch of tub thumping Christian soul snatchers set up on the street and started trying to sing the praises of the lord while beseeching anyone close enough to come join the flock...

and someone sitting at Gino's with a guitar started playing Sympathy for the Devil. The whole street joined in :lol: :clap:

Sorry mate - in my unfortunate experience it's a case of 'once you hear it...'

Little Red Rooster (1964)

Very early days, and a heavy Muddy Waters influence detectable.
