Maybe Havo can share some of his memories with us?

Hi !

Is anybody going to record it and can upload in the hot stuff section please ?

Unfortunately there is no WDR channel in my country and I would like to see this documentation

Thanks in advance !

Seems strange to me that I first saw them in May of '65 here in Florida, but they had not yet played in Germany which is much closer to the UK!

Netherlands is much closer they played there in August '64.......

Reminder:

The Rolling Stones: Satisfaction in NRW

Today, 23:15-00:00, WDR.

Rebroadcast: Monday, September 28, 2015, 2:15am-3:00am, WDR.

And three days later Anita Pallenberg plotted and then succeeded in meeting Brain Jones, took him to her hotel room, offered up amyl nitrate and hash, and eventually became arguably one of the top 2 or 3 most significant and influential forces within The Rolling Stones.

This first German tour ended up having such far reaching implications, personally and professionally, with the band in general, and with the leaders of the band specifically.

Oh to have been alive back then!

It's rather not strange, because Chuck Berry, Muddy Waters and the Blues (the roots of The Rolling Stones) are from the US, not from Germany ....
