For this piece I cobbled together footage from the 1968 Jean-Luc Godard film originally titled "One Plus One" to depict the evolution of the Stones classic from initial run-throughs to final recording. Additionally, theres a bit of live footage from the 69 Altamont gig documented in the Maysles Brothers "Gimme Shelter" at the end.

Rolling Stones "Sympathy For The Devil" ~ FULL Studio Sessions ~ Beggars Banquet

Rolling Stones: "Sympathy For The Devil," Beggars Banquet Studio Sessions, Olympic Sound Studios, London, 1968. The working title of the song was "The Devil Is My Name," In the film, the group goes through several iterations of the song, from almost a bluesy, folky ballad (similar to "Jigsaw Puzzle") to the freaked-out samba it ultimately became. During the sessions the words were changed from "who killed Kennedy?" to "who killed the Kennedys?" after the assassination of Robert Kennedy. It was Richards who came up with the songs Samba arrangement, playing both bass and lead guitar. The druggy dissolution of Brian Jones is seen unvarnished in the film, his usefulness in the studio coming to an end (he is not heard on the finished track). Marianne faithful, Anita Pallenberg, Brian Jones, Charlie Watts, producer Jimmy Miller, Bill Wyman, Keith Richards are seen recording back up vocals but the "Whoo Whoo" backing vocals were overdubbed in Los Angeles by producer Jimmy Miller, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards alone.
