Rolling Stones - Paint | It Black -flac-

Brian Jones plays this Indian instrument. In FLAC, the strings buzz with incredible clarity.

When The Rolling Stones released "Paint It Black" in May 1966, they did not just release another chart-topping single. They delivered a psychological shift in rock music. Driven by Brian Jones’ eerie sitar, Charlie Watts’ driving, military-style drumming, and Mick Jagger’s bleak, grief-stricken lyrics, the song became an anthem of counterculture angst and existential dread.

"Paint It Black" was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, the primary songwriters of The Rolling Stones. The song was recorded in February 1966 at London's Regent Sound Studios, and it was released as a single on April 8, 1966. The song's distinctive sitar riff, played by Brian Jones, was a key element in its composition, and it helped to set the song apart from other rock hits of the time.
