Sweet Jane 61 Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Tell me what your favorite is? They have some great bluesy tunes, and I want to know which one you like to hear...research for an upcoming show. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_n_white Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Don't know how bluesy it is,but "Gimme Shelter" would always be the Stones song I would ask to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamisammy29 Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Well, technically, all the Stones songs are based on some form of the blues, but I'm assuming you mean the flat-out, old school, bad to the bone, down and dirty type of blues like the old blues masters from the 30's and 40's... In that case, I'd recommend these... "Ventilator Blues" "Down In The Hole" "I Got The Blues" "Prodigal Son" "Black Limousine" "Back Of My Hand" "Midnight Rambler" "You Got The Silver" "Spider And The Fly" "Love In Vain" "Stray Cat Blues" (live off "Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out") And if you want a little funkier blues.... "Hey Negrita" (you play this one on the radio, and Stonesheads the world over will absolutely worship you!) There are many more, but you've got a good hour there. Rock on, Janie!

phil Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 I agree with Sammy most Stones songs are steeped in the blues. Here'e a couple more. Time Is On My Side Sweet Virginia Sweet Black Angel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_s_1987 Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 ^First one I thought of too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesboy Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 For original Rolling Stones songs, Sammy has listed a majority of them. My only additions would be Country Honk as a country blues (roots) song or maybe Far Away Eyes, but that's more country than blues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My vote for a Clapton song is his rendition of Eddie Boyd's Five Long Years off the From the Cradle cd (1994). Here's a 7 day temporary audio file.

MuzikTyme Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 No votes for "Midnight Rambler?" That gets mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesboy Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 I agree Midnight Rambler is an excellent choice ! Here's my vote for a Stevie Ray Vaughan song. It's a song very few people have heard and that's what makes it unique. It's an outtake from the Soul to Soul sessions that never made it onto the LP, but it's a worthy recommendation. It's called Boilermaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Hey, Bluesy! Last I knew, a boiler maker was a shot of whiskey chased with beer. But, I'm just a caveman. These new terms confuse me! (lol) Good to see...ooops...I mean, hear>>> double whoops... read from you. Take care.
