Can't You Hear Me Knocking?

I love the Stones! All the songs listed above are great, you really can't go wrong with any of their albums, they're is literally somthing for everyone. If you wan't to hear a different psychedelic side of the Stones I recommend checking out their 1967 album "Their Satanic Majesties Request". It's got some really cool tunes like "She's a Rainbow", "2000 Man", and "2000 Light Years From Home".

Got a lot of Rolling Stones albums. Have yet to purchase 40 Licks because I have a few Best Of collections...

Favourite Stones records - Fool To Cry, Gime Shelter, Can't Always Get What You Want, Wild Horses, Street Fighting Man, Angie, Mother's Little Helper etc, etc.

Gimme Shelter has my favourite female vocals on any record ever. And as a fan of Simone, Holliday, Franklin etc that is saying something...

That's a great song anyway, but yes, I see your point. When she says "burn on" and her voice breaks...that's cold chills time. Nice call.

A perfect song, un-fuckin'-believably crucial...
