Hard to beat. That song is bookended by the great Stones' guitarists - Keith at the beginning with the basic, blues derived riff, and Mick Taylor keeping it going at the end when everyone wanted to quit - (pardon the pun) rolling into an extended jam session to rival the Dead or the ABB. Musical moments like that can't happen anymore because of the industrialization/homogenization of music, the relative lack of virtuosity, and the fact they just don't make music in that fashion any longer.

But, it's great to look/listen back on those times. What a glorious time to have been a rock and roll fan.

Yeah from what I read, the tape was still rolling and everyone but the percussionist was still playing then they realized and Mick Taylor and Bobby Keys brings everyone on home. Great Santana-esque playing by Taylor as well.
