‘Gimme Shelter’ — The Rolling Stones
Isn’t it amazing that Keith Richards wrote this song in just 20 minutes? The song “Gimme Shelter” left a lasting impression on those who heard it. It was the first track on the album “Let It Bleed,” released in 1969, but it was never released as a single. Despite this, it has appeared on numerous compilation albums and has been performed live numerous times over the years. The Rolling Stones performed it with Florence Welch, Mary J. Blige, and Lady Gaga for their 50th-anniversary tour in 2012.
