Brown Sugar – Classic Rock Throwback Thursday [WATCH]
Sit beside me in the Whale Time Machine. Our trip into time is about to begin. The date is set for December 3rd, 1969.
It was on that day, a rock-n-roll group named The Rolling Stones were busy in a recording studio (Muscle Shoals Studio) putting together a tune that would become a number one hit in both Great Britain and the United States.
That tune is Brown Sugar from the album ' Sticky Fingers. Written by Mick Jagger, the rumor is the song inspiration was Marsha Hunt, who became the mother of his first child. But there is also a claim the song was written with Claudia Lennear in mind.
For today's Classic Rock Throwback Thursday, enjoy some Brown Sugar from a Rolling Stones performance in 1971 at UK's Top of the Pops.
