专辑简介

I wrote this song in 2008 in a caravan on the far north coast of scotland. If you need inspiration to write anything - this is the place to be for my part. It is on my album 'Change the world' which is obtainable on CD from rhythmshop productions. 'Rolling Stone' contains references to one of my favourite rock bands from the 60's and 70's which is where the title comes from. If you're reading this Mick/ Keith etc...Man, thanks for those wonderful tunes and happy memories. I saw the stones live at Bernabeu football stadium, Madrid in 1983/4 it was forty degrees and there was nothing to drink in the place except water that was taken from a supply pipe to the toilets which had been ripped off the wall by the fans!!!, it was so hot, the roadies were hosing down the fans from the stage. It grew dark suddenly just prior to the stones performance and it began to rain so hard, the roadies were now having to sweep the storm water off of the stage! Then lightning flashes across the stadium thunder bursts explode above us. The crowd are mad from waiting and p...d off because they think they will have to wait even longer when suddenly, Jagger bursts onto the stage singing 'Jumping jack flash'....wowowowowowo!!! Never seen anything like that ever before or since... a real one off. Cheers guyses! here is my little party stomp in recognition of those lovely days....ahhhh
