SATISFACTION, LIVE ON COPACABANA BEACH!

The Rolling Stones performing "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction", live on Copacabana Beach, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, February 2006. This is the largest concert of all time, attended by 1.5million people. 

This version features Mick Jagger on vocals, Keith Richards on guitar, Charlie Watts on drums, Ronnie Wood on guitar, Darryl Jones on bass, Chuck Leavell on piano, Lisa Fischer and Bernard Fowler on backing vocals, Blondie Chaplin on backing vocals and percussion, Bobby Keys in saxophone, and Tim Ries and Kent Smith on horns.

STARS IN THEIR CARS!

There is more to being well dressed than just the clothes. It's about the life as well as the wardrobe, and a man's method of transport is an important element of the stylish life. We're promiscuous when it comes to transportation: we're big fans of cycling and we're certainly not above public transport, but we also love driving. It's undoubtedly easier to make a good impression if you emerge from the cabin of an Italian coupé, rather than from an underground station, and if you're offering someone a lift home after dinner it's more tempting if she knows that you've got the keys to an Aston in your pocket, rather than the keys to a D-lock. This is something the men in the photographs, above, knew well, and they set an almost unbeatable benchmark when it comes to automotive style.

YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT!

"You Can't Always Get What You Want" is a song by the Rolling Stones on their 1969 album Let It Bleed. Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, it was named as the 100th greatest song of all time by Rolling Stone magazine in its 2004 list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time".

The three verses (along with the varied theme in the fourth verse) address the major topics of the 1960s: love, politics, and drugs. Each verse captures the essence of the initial optimism and eventual disillusion, followed by the resigned pragmatism in the chorus
