It's interesting how the context changes when you listen to the entire album. I've heard Street Fighting Man on the radio (almost daily) for forty years and the whole song changed for me when I listened to Beggars Banquet in it's entirety.

I'm never going to be a Stones fan but they are certainly more than just a bar band that got lucky

I started the Rolling Stones discography from the beginning and am listening all the way to whatever their latest album is. Not all at once, I don't have that kind of time. Just want to try and find out what all the hype was about.

I hate to admit it, but Hackney Diamonds, their latest album that came out last year, is actually pretty solid!

Huh I'll have to check that out. I really like The Rolling Stones, though not so much the same songs you hear on the radio over and over and over. I gained more respect for them as a snotty teen after reading an interview with Thurston Moore in Guitar magazine and when talking about what inspired him to get into music, he told a story of buying a brand new Stones album way back in the day. "My friend and I just got completely stoned as we stared at the album cover and listened to it at least 10 times."

Neil Rogers.

Sorry, drinking

Edit: found some best of episodes

Don Rogers? Or Neil? What are we talking about? In either case, there are no specific episodes of note, pick one and have fun.

Speaking of Don Rogers, can you recommend some show episodes? I browsed some YouTube clips but I'm not sure they represent the core of the DR phenomenon.

Neil Rogers shows from 2005.

I apologize in advance, this is one from the vaults. The singer and his boy are trying to hit each other in the balls with the microphones.

Use headphones for the full effect

I had YouTube up when I read your post. I use it to listen to music. It was on this.
