Keith RiCHARDS’ Fun Song | Part 1

The Rolling Stones were on a roll! Between 1968 and 1972, they put out four albums that many fans say are their greatest, and some even say they’re among the best rock albums ever made. Their last album in this amazing streak was a double album called “Exile on Main St.” It was a wild ride to close out this epic period, just like you’d expect from the Stones.

Most folks know the story behind the album’s name: the band had to leave England for a while because of high taxes, so they rented a place in France to make their music. But even though they were in Europe, the music on “Exile on Main St.” is a mix of blues, soul, country, and rock – a sound that’s all over the map in the best way possible.

Sometimes good things come in unexpected packages! ‘Happy’ is a fun song sung by Keith Richards, the Rolling Stones’ guitar legend. Believe it or not, it all happened because Keith showed up early for a recording session! Lucky for us, he did because ‘Happy’ became a huge hit for the Stones and a staple of their live shows. They’ve played it over 500 times! In this song, Keith shows off his talents on not just vocals and guitar, but also bass! He’s a true triple threat.”
