That Dandy Classic Track of the Day #21

1968’s Beggars Banquet was a return to bluesy-form for the Stones off the heels of their underwhelming “Satanic Majesty’s Request” and had some of their very best and well-known songs. While “Jig-Saw Puzzle” isn’t nearly as well-known or celebrated as most, it’s always been a personal favorite of mine.

That Dandy Classic Track of the Day #18

The birth of what would come to be known as ‘psychedelic soul’ can be traced to this #8 pop track of Sly & the Family Stone, “Dance To the Music”. For me this 3 minute song exemplifies the best of one of the most eclectic and electric bands of all-time and is proto-funk. A true classic.
