    With “Satisfaction,” the Rolling Stones hit on a formula that practically guaranteed hit records..

    Using their background in American Blues and R&B, they drew musical muscle from that inspiration and coupled it with lyrics that brilliantly captured the frustration of youth. Utilizing that same formula, Jagger/Richard concocted “Get Off of My Cloud” and “19th Nervous Breakdown,” two stunning pieces of anti-society diatribes that provided fertile ground for the rebellious nature that would soon define the youth movement of the ‘60s.

    Some of their non-hit material was still tentative, but the die was cast – The Rolling Stones became the figureheads for a new attitude that flew in the face of propriety.
