Rolling Stones ‘Under My Thumb’

4 Jun

‘Under My Thumb’ has officially replaced ‘Dear Doctor’ as my current favourite Stones tune. Although the lyrics are absurdly misogynistic (try these on for size: “Its down to me/ The way she talks when shes spoken to”) I can’t resist this song. I think the zylophone is the clincher.

WARNING: Mick is sporting a particularly enviable jacket in this clip.

Rock’n'roll starts between the legs and goes through the heart, then to the head.

Q. What could be better than a crochet’d pillow in the shape of the Rolling Stones ‘Beggar’s Banquet’ on vinyl?

A. Only a crochet’d replica of ‘Born to Run’.

I am finding it very difficult to resist the temptation to buy BOTH of these. These rock-tastic record pillows are handmade by Esther of Toggle. Other records available include Blondie’s ‘Parallel Lines’, Joy Division’s ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ and The Clash’s ‘London Calling’ to name a few.
