100 Great Songs From The British Invasion: ‘Get Off Of My Cloud’- The Rolling Stones. The Stones follow up to their first #1 hit- their ‘signature’ song ‘Satisfaction.’ The song was recorded in Hollywood. Keith Richards would say the song was a reaction to the success they had with ‘Satisfaction.’ Keith would later say ” All the sudden they had a big hit and were being pressured to come up with a follow up. I never dug it as a record. The chorus was a nice idea, but we rushed it as the follow-up. We were in L.A. [Los Angeles, where “[I Can’t Get No] Satisfaction’ was recorded], and it was time for another single. But how do you follow-up “Satisfaction”? Actually, what I wanted was to do it slow, like a Lee Dorsey thing. We rocked it up. I thought it was one of Andrew Loog Oldham’s worst productions.”– I kind of agree- the production isn’t very good. Maybe it was all a rush job. Get out the follow up.
