An MCRFB Note: It has been 50 years having passed when the Rolling Stones‘ “Satisfaction” first went to the top — No. 1 — on the Billboard singles chart here in the U.S.A., this week in July, 1965.

In his (July 4) Detroit Free Press entertainment column (‘ “Satisfaction” Marks 50-Year Triumph As Stones Hits Town’), Brian McCollum reviews how the group’s 50-year old anthem has significantly impacted a generation in reshaping, in having redefined the modern sound of “rock ‘n’ roll” around the globe, ever since.

“Satisfaction,” the band’s first international No. 1 hit, was recorded in May, 1965, during the Stones third North American (20-city) tour, April-May that year.

The Rolling Stone will take to the stage tonight, Wednesday July 8, 8:00 p.m., at Detroit’s Comerica Park. Welcome, once again Rolling Stones, to the Motor City!

STILL ROCKIN’ SINCE 1962. THE ROLLING STONES ‘ZIPS’ COMERICA PARK IN DETROIT, TONIGHT!
