Wild Horses (Rolling Stones Song)
"Wild Horses" is a song written by the British rock band the Rolling Stones from their 1971 album ''Sticky Fingers'' although it was first released in 1970 by the Flying Burrito Brothers as the Stones didn't think the demo was worth recording fully. It was subsequently recorded by the Stones when they felt it was worth reconsideration. It was also released on 12 June 1971 as a single, with " Sway" as its B-side. ''Rolling Stone'' ranked the song number 334 in its "500 Greatest Songs of All Time" list in 2004 and number 193 in its 2021 update. Inspiration and recording In the liner notes to the 1993 Rolling Stones compilation album '' Jump Back'', Jagger states, "I remember we sat around originally doing this with Gram Parsons, and I think his version came out slightly before ours. Everyone always says this was written about Marianne but I don't think it was; that was all well over by then. But I was definitely very inside this piece emotionally." Richards says, "If there is a c ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
The Rolling Stones
The Rolling Stones are an English rock band formed in London in 1962. Active for six decades, they are one of the most popular and enduring bands of the rock era. In the early 1960s, the Rolling Stones pioneered the gritty, rhythmically driven sound that came to define hard rock. Their first stable line-up consisted of vocalist Mick Jagger, multi-instrumentalist Brian Jones, guitarist Keith Richards, bassist Bill Wyman, and drummer Charlie Watts. During their formative years, Jones was the primary leader: he assembled the band, named it, and drove their sound and image. After Andrew Loog Oldham became the group's manager in 1963, he encouraged them to write their own songs. Jagger and Richards became the primary creative force behind the band, alienating Jones, who had developed a drug addiction that interfered with his ability to contribute meaningfully. Rooted in blues and early rock and roll, the Rolling Stones started out playing covers and were at the forefront ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Billboard Hot 100

Nashville Tuning (high Strung)
Nashville or high-strung tuning refers to the practice of replacing the wound E, A, D and G strings on a six-string guitar with lighter gauge strings to allow tuning an octave higher than standard. This is usually achieved by using one string from each of the six courses of a twelve-string set, using the higher string for those courses tuned in octaves. The Pink Floyd song " Hey You" from the album ''The Wall'' and the Kansas song "Dust in the Wind" from their ''Point of Know Return'' album are notable for using this form of guitar tuning. In "Hey You", David Gilmour replaced the low E string with a second high E (not a 12-string set, low E's octave string) such that it was two octaves up. The Rolling Stones' " Wild Horses" features both a 12-string guitar played by Keith Richards and a guitar with Nashville tuning played by Mick Taylor. Jumpin' Jack Flash features two acoustic guitars, one Nashville strung, overdriven through a cassette recorder. James Williamson used Nashvill ...
