Does there always have to be a reason, an explanation, for me to give for posting a song on here?… I think not, although I like to give some sort of background to the reason for most songs being included in this collection. But for this one.. no, nothing. Other than to say that every now and then you simply must just turn up the speakers and attempt to blow the doors off… wherever you may be. It just comes over me so I’m doing it now.
Sticky Fingers was the album…1971 the year, and The Rolling Stones just letting rip… Can’t You Hear Me Knocking is the song. This is how I love The Stones to play, this is their sound, and when they play like this there aren’t many bands to come near them. Keith Richards and Mick Taylor on guitars (the best Stones guitar combination for me)… Bobby Keys on saxophone, and of course the voice of Mick Jagger… this is them at their best. It’s on the soundtrack of a movie called “Blow”… never seen it.. don’t want to… I just like cranking the speakers up and playing this song. No other reason.
Crack open a beer, turn the volume up, click the play button and blow the cobwebs out. No more needs to be said. Short post but I don’t care.. I’ll re-fit the door on the beach shack in the morning.
