Ha. It is strange I see this thread tonight. I told someone who likes blues and rock to Listen To that.
Told him about the live version (the studio is just as impressive due to it's hauntingness but I figured to start him out with the bang one first you know..).
What a dark tune on both versions. What a raunch barn stormer in the live version.
Yes Mr. Voodoo. Tis a classic.
In 89 I can remember seeing them at Cleveland stadium. We were not sure what to expect from The Rolling Stones in 1989? I can vividly remember hearing the harmonica in the darkness. I said to my friend "No. no way. It can't be" in disbelief. He said "it is" in a lower voice, and in a sort of get ready for this remarkable treat we are so lucky to hear after this long time. Also said it in a kinda "they are going to do it" way as well.
It was magic and the whole stadium was literally, and I mean "literally" jumping and stomping the whole way through it.
I will never forget that.
