about this song
Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, it was recorded in late 1965 and released as a single in February 1966. Jagger came up with the title first and then wrote the lyrics around it. The opening guitar figure is played by Keith Richards while in the verses Brian Jones plays a bass-note figure that derives from "Diddley Daddy" by Bo Diddley, a major influence on the Rolling Stones' style. Here the riff is extended into a long blues chord progression behind lyrics similar to those of their previous UK single
