Around and Around

Well the joint was jumpin', going 'round and 'round... Chuck Berry / The Rolling Stones - Around and Around

I can remember watching a rerun of this clip, probably 14 years after it was shown live on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964.  I was in High School and my friend and I both laughed at and loved the way Mick Jagger clapped as he sang. 

The Rolling Stones recorded this Chuck Berry classic on their 1964 EP Five By Five.

As per wikipedia "The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus is a film released in 1996 of an 11 December 1968 event put together by The Rolling Stones. The event comprised two concerts on a circus stage and included such acts as The Who, Taj Mahal, Marianne Faithfull, and Jethro Tull. John Lennon and his fiancee Yoko Ono performed as part of a supergroup called The Dirty Mac, along with Eric Clapton, Mitch Mitchell, and Keith Richards."
