The Rolling Stones: Gaining Traction in the USA
Episode 8
Episode date - September 27, 2013
As 1965 began, the Rolling Stones were huge enough to challenge the Beatles in Great Britain, but in America, despite two tours around the country, they were barely an afterthought.
This show documents the time when that obscurity would end forever. The main reason for this was that the songwriting team of Jagger/Richard had finally struck pay dirt, composing a tune that had all the intense energy of rock and roll, while still sounding true to their blues purist nature. For Americans, this is where the story begins.
