A really pretty song. This album is cool in theory too, great album art and excellent guest stars like RHCP, the bassist from System of a Down, Sly Stone, Carlos Santana, and RZA. I think this is the standout song from the album though by a mile.
The Stones go psychadelic, had never really explored this one before recently. They didn’t really explore this stuff further after this album and the album was the panned as a rip off of those trends of the time and the what the Beatles had done, but still give this a listen, cool stuff. This is what digging into discographies and less popular stuff is all about, finding these fun one offs.
Me and my dad are big Jimi Hendrix fans. There are so many good songs on this album such as All Along The Watchtower, Voodoo Child, Burning Of The Midnight Lamp, and Crosstown Traffic just to name a few songs off the album. It is an amazing technical psychedelic rock album that is warm and surreal.
Rock steady is full of underrated songs imo and this one is one of the best no doubt songs ever except it’s (very obviously) a prince song. It also sounds like a little dragon song. when it comes on in the car I usually restart it at least two times.
