Why young fella it's the intro to "Brown Sugar", played by Keith Richards on his #1 '52 Tele named Micawber , with its 5 strings tuned to G D G B D (open G tuning) as taught to him by the great Ry Cooder.

Tuning also used on Start Me Up, Honky Tonk Women, etc.

A little musical education for our youngun.

Imho Beggars Banquent is the Stones best album. It was also the time when Mick Jagger and John Lennon were at their closest. And The White Album came out two months after BB. Gene Rodenberry gained inspiration from both when he wrote ST:OS. This Will Be Your Last Battlefield. While Jagger wrote Sympathy For The Devil, Lennon wrote this (imho the superior version). Some of George Harrison's best riffs.

This Will be Our Last Battlefield was aired a month after The White Album was released.

1968 was an apocalyptic year, I was too young to live it. All the major players contributed. Lennon, Jagger, Rodenberry, Kubrick and Rod Serling.
