"Jumpin' Jack Flash" was a 1968 Rolling Stones single with no album attached, a Mick Jagger and Keith Richards song that yanked the band back to the blues and hard rock after the baroque pop and psychedelic wanderings of Aftermath, Between the Buttons and, above all, Their Satanic Majesties Request. It's all snarl and strut, a riff that stomps like a hobnailed boot and Jagger crowing like the devil's own street kid.

It went to number one in the UK, and Rolling Stone placed it at number 144 on its 2021 list of the 500 greatest songs of all time.
