According to Wikipedia, "Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and recorded in November and December 1972, "Angie" is an acoustic guitar driven ballad which tells of the end of a romance. Rolling Stones-recording regular Nicky Hopkins plays the song's distinctive piano accompaniment."

    %22Rock and a Hard Place%22

    Here it is, my number one favorite Rolling Stones song--"Rock and a Hard Place." Now, it might not be on everyone's top 5 list because there are tons and tons of great Stones songs, but, I really like this song. "At the time of release, Jagger said, "This is one of those songs like "Start Me Up," where the minute you hear the opening notes, you head for the dance floor. It's real '70s, in the best possible way," according to Wikipedia.
