CAN'T YOU HEAR ME KNOKCING
THE ROLLING STONES
Sticky Fingers

This song is divided in two parts, the first one is the rythm (by Keith) and the other is
the solo (by
Taylor).
The first part is in G tuning (DGDGBD) and the other is in standard tuning.
You should play the rythmic with a DoublePickup on a Telecaster (Custom) with the neck
pickup.
For the solo, it's a heavy LesPaul sound with sustain, played on the neck pickup too.
For both sections, a valve amp is required...

So here it is...

b(1t): bend of one tone
^v^v^v^v^v^v: vibrato
s: slide
po: pull off
h: hammer on

Ryhtmic

I first heard this song on the movie blow and I have loved it ever since. And since it was on blow, which is about cocaine I really feel the drug vibe on it.

Nolesy101, what? The younger generations? How young are we talking about? I'm twenty-five, and I'm the biggest Stones fan I know...my dad was into Zeppelin and the like, (he's only 19 years older than me) but not really the stones, but I discovered them, myslef, and Can't You Hear Me Knocking is one of my favs. Sticky Fingers is one of their best...probably second or third...Beggar's Banquet is the shit. Let It Bleed and Sticky Fingers are neck and neck for second...and you can't forget about Exile...but what do I know, I'm just one of the younger generation, who knows nothing about music, right?...oh and I knew every chord of this song, long before Blow came out!

If not the best Stones song, then definitely in (my) top 3 at least.

Mick Taylor was the Greatest lead Guitar player in the history of the Stones.....If Ya Ya's doesn't prove it to you, go get some of the bootlegs from the 72-73 tours. This song was in Good fellas. Not sure if it was in Blow. Like many stone #'s the lyrics are very secondary. These fit right in.....but Mick does a good job getting the emotion across and of course Taylor shines.

This isn't really about drugs. It's just another installment of "Mick Jagger the prowler"--a continuation if you will of Midnight Rambler. Having said that---it is the single greatest rock song of all-time. Keith Richards is the finest rhythm guitarist ever and an underrated lead guitarist as well.
