Your favourite Rolling Stones track?

[LoveCurryPies]

Sad to hear Charlie Watts has died. So which is your favourite Stones track? I think I will go with ‘Ruby Tuesday’ but I might change my mind.

[Peter Loo]

I wasn’t really a RnR fan at the time but I really did like some of their ballads.

[Steve1956]

This Jagger is sublime.

[yTib]

can't you hear me knocking.

see ya charlie.

[lakedistrictclaret]

Either " Get Off Of My Cloud " or "She's A Rainbow"

As for "Ruby Tuesday", I realise this may be sacrilege but I prefer Melanie's version.

[Woodleyclaret]

Paint it Black

[Guitargeorge]

Street Fighting Man, but there are so many. It’s an inevitable fact that many of my 60’s favourites, if they haven’t already, will pass away in the next few years. What a band and what a live show. Seen many, starting at Nelson Imp and ending at large stadia

[Claret Till I Die]

Wild Horses

[Guitargeorge]

Some of the raw early r’n’b stuff was good too. Route 66, Chuck Berry covers etc

[Devils_Advocate]

Either "Lets Spend The Night Together" or "Light My Fire" both equally as good as each other

[Ptangyangkipperbang]

So many to choose but the first two I thought 2000 light years from home and Miss You

[mill hill claret]

Angie

[Bosscat]

Paint it black for me, without a doubt

[dermotdermot]

Either "Lets Spend The Night Together" or "Light My Fire" both equally as good as each other

“Light My Fire”was a song by the Doors that was covered by Jose Feliciano.

[tiger76]

Sympathy For The Devil is always one that gets me listening whenever it comes on the radio, a great tune, and a great story at the same time.

I love Sympathy For The Devil but there are just so many I love.

Yes I came to the Stones relatively late, mainly through my dad playing his old CD'S, but their back catalogue is incredible, and how you'd devise a greatest hits compilation I doesn't bear thinking about, I guess you could say the same of The Beatles, but obviously the Stones have been together for much longer to build up their vast collection of hits.

[Cirrus_Minor]

So many to choose from, the introduction for example from ‘Start Me Up’ is brilliant. But this is one of my favourites..

[Claretlad]

Play with fire...

[Devils_Advocate]

“Light My Fire”was a song by the Doors that was covered by Jose Feliciano.

Probably a few songs of the name but Im definitely thinking of the one the Stones did with Bill Wyman's swirling keyboards

[HahaYeah]

My fave Stones tune : She Was Hot

[Hibsclaret]

Loads of great tracks. Usually a different one on a different day. Today I’ll go for the brilliant simplicity of Under my thumb. RIP Charlie

[COBBLE]

Paint it black with You can't always get what you want on the B side

[Billy Balfour]

For me, it's a toss up between Jumpin' Jack Flash and Brown Sugar. Brilliant intros in both songs.

[djemba-djemba]

Shine A Light

[dermotdermot]

Probably a few songs of the name but Im definitely thinking of the one the Stones did with Bill Wyman's swirling keyboards

You maka zee joke, yes?

[Vino blanco]

I've always been a massive Beatles fan but I did like the rock sound that the Stones generated on their singles. My favourite? Honkey Tonk Women.

[gawthorpe_view]

Paint it Black from their earlier work.

More recently Rough Justice.

[Billy Balfour]

Funnily enough, I watched a 2020 documentary last night about Brian Jones. It's on Amazon Prime.

[BabylonClaret]

Lots to choose from but possibly Gimme Shelter or maybe Wild Horses. Those albums through Let it Bleed to Exile .. are solid gold

[jdrobbo]

Honky Tonk Women

[rincon]

I like this one,
'rough justice' from the 'a bigger bang' album, great live - I was lucky enough to see them at Cardiff on that tour.

[Lancasterclaret]

Another one for "Paint it Black" here

[redwasp]

I go right back to the beginning with Come On and You Better Move On.

[elwaclaret]

Sympathy for the Devil
Playing with fire

With Paint it Black a good first reserve

[dougcollins]

Tumbling Dice.

[elwaclaret]

I go right back to the beginning with Come On and You Better Move On.

Not so much red wasp as Little Red Rooster then?

[Juan Tanamera]

Another shout for Paint It Black (Brian Jones superb Sitar).

[bobinho]

Get off my cloud
Sympathy
Gimme shelter

Difficult to chose between those three.

Saw them live at the O2 some years since now and they were awesome.

[AlargeClaret]

Impossible to have just one
Paint it black
Get off my cloud and a very honourable mention to Gimme Shelter .

Still great live , ok they play campfire chords now and bits of overdub but still brilliant

RIP Charlie

[Mayoclaret]

Very difficult to choose but loved "Salt of the Earth" - Concert for NYC .
RIP Charlie, you old rocker!

[rufus lumley]

Under my Thumb.

[Downhamclaret]

Brown sugar

[lesxdp]

I go right back to the beginning with Come On and You Better Move On.

Agree totally. Might not be there most popular but for me "Come On" has always been special. Wish I could post a You Tube Link. Maybe someone can do it for me.

[minnieclaret]

Sympathy For The Devil
Gimme Shelter
On the day when Charlie has past can anybody remind me the title of the song that videoed with the set filling with bubbles. It was a bad design, the producer had forgotten that Charlie was sitting down. He could have left us that day but being a pro he kept beat.

It's Only Rock n Roll

[claret2018]

Rocks Off, or Beast of Burden. Or Gimme Shelter.

Probably changes daily

[Loyalclaret]

Just watching the gig from 1969 on Sky Arts 'Stones in the Park'.

My mother walked across London barefooted to the gig. Flower power and all that
