The Rolling Stones

In January 1969, The Rolling Stones were riding high on their success following the release of their album "Beggars Banquet," which came out in late 1968. This album marked a significant shift in their musical style, incorporating more roots rock and blues influences and featuring classics such as "Street Fighting Man" and "Sympathy for the Devil." The live recording of "Little Queenie" captures the band during a vibrant phase, as they were becoming known for their energetic performances and a rawer sound following the psychedelic experimentation of the mid-1960s. This period also saw the addition of new guitarist Mick Taylor, who joined the band in December 1969, adding richness to their live sound. The 1969 performance embodies the band's commitment to live music, showcasing their improvisational skills and dynamic presence on stage.
