High School, Freshman year '79, Panasonic Boombox blasting this tune as soon as the bell rang. Ripped jeans, smelled like the roach I was keeping in my back pocket for "lunch". Had to be the fuckin' coolest kid in that fucked up school. It's a miracle I ever even finished high school. Odds were stacked against me. And look at me now, Hahaa! "It's just a shot away!"
Finally got in to the Rolling Stones the other day after listening to a few of their albums. Gimme Shelter has always been one of my favourite songs though...
