96.9 The River Alaska’s Classic Rock Authority
Today in history!5/6/1965: The Rolling Stones’ guitarist Keith Richards had a multi million dollar dream. Yep, Richards was working in his sleep while The Rolling Stones were on their second tour of the US. In his dream, Richard’s was jamming out on his guitar trying to write a song for The Stones’ next album and in his dream, he came up with the riff to Satisfaction.
Keith immediately awoke from his deep sleep and grabbed the guitar and tape recorder that he had set by his bed for spontaneous moments of creativity like this.
Half asleep, Keith recorded the riff and immediately fell over snoring. The next morning, Keith had forgotten about the whole incident. He didn’t even remember waking up. He just saw the tape recorder still recording. When he hit play on the tape recorder, he heard two minutes of what would become the guitar riff to Satisfaction followed by forty minutes of snoring.
