THE REVIEW

Cocksucker Blues is a sort of documentary about the band, never officially released due to censorship concerning the delirious scenes shown in the famous backstage.

But also a piece from 1970, written and arranged due to contractual obligations towards the hated Decca Records.

Believe it or not, the most vulgar and outrageous episode of the Stones.

To infuriate the big shots of the company, Jagger narrates the homosexual experience of the schoolboy visiting London.

Oh, where can I get my cock sucked? Where can I have my ass fucked?

A parody of The Lonesome Guitar Strangler, it was nonetheless released for a short time as a single, although it remains ignored by many connoisseurs of the group.

Easily, in any case, available on the web among various bootlegs and compilations.

Regarding the film, Robert Frank, director of the controversial movie, must be present at every potential screening of it due to contractual obligations that arose in 1972, when the group decided not to authorize the public showing of the work, fearing possible lawsuits or investigations.

It was indeed during the Exile tour that they gave their "best".

Needles, hookers, sodomy, and an old black and white film. They didn't miss a thing in this high-intensity episode.
