Always wanted to cover this but put it off for ages. Thought I might not do it justice. Eventually i took a deep breath and got to work. I am rather pleased with it, if I do say so myself

Oh yeah!  This is great.  Oddly I've never been heavy into the Stones, but of course have heard many of their many favorite songs.  But I keep thinking I should listen to more Stones, including their deep cuts.  And when I hear a great cover like this it reminds me to do that!   

Sounds like real drums, too?  Are you playing those too?

Justice?  You blew this out of the friggin water man!  What a fantastic cover Ron!  I heard this at least 6 times today while on the elliptical. 
This fits your style to a T... it's enough like the real thing to know what the song is but totally you and I think that is about as good as a person can do...

and really passionate...like you really love the song coming through.  I did a crazy cover of this when i first got on the site for psychadelic fest... it was pretty good but this is way way up there man!  Lets just say if I were out and heard you playing this I would plant my fanny right in the best seat possible and just watch, listen, and learn!

This is the goods Ron! I knew you'd do a great cover of this song just by seeing the jukebox. Those guitars sound killer and your vocals have that Mick Jagger swagger! Very cool to hear a cover from you...

You certainly hit the nail with this one... I went to Hyde park to see them this year the old rockers have still got and your certainly giving them a run for their money with this one ...love it!

One of my favourite Stones songs and you've certainly done it justice. Great Stones vibe from the guitars !

As Farrell says, Ron you certainly nailed this one. You've captured that Stones vibe perfectly.
