Song of the day for December 20th, 2019 The Rolling Stones “Jumpin’ Jack Flash”. “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. The song was released as a single in 1968. “Jumpin Jack Flash” peaked at number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.

“I used a Gibson Hummingbird acoustic tuned to open D, six string. Open D or open E, which is the same thing – same intervals – but it would be slackened down some for D. Then there was a capo on it, to get that really tight sound. And there was another guitar over the top of that, but tuned to Nashville tuning. I learned that from somebody in George Jones’ band in San Antonio in 1964. The high-strung guitar was an acoustic, too. Both acoustics were put through a Philips cassette recorder. Just jam the mic right in the guitar and play it back through an extension speaker.” Keith Richards
