I was needing some Stones so I listened to Sticky Fingers last night and this morning on the drive. Over played or no, there's a reason that album went multi-platinum in the first place. Great songs of course*. I found myself repeating the opening of Can't You Here Me Knocking? and similar songs. Each time louder than the time before until I run out of volume knob. My new ride has the 400W "Fender Sound" system, so the SPL is significant.
Why is this so? - I asked myself. Keif starts those songs at full strength, the 1st note is just crushed, it comes out of no where. He just grabs you. Boom! Like pulling the trigger on a .357, so sudden.
I like that a lot. So what else do we like about Keith's playing?
* Is there a better belt-it-out sing along song than Dead Flowers? But that's another discussion isn't it?
