"The urge to perfect can sometimes sterilise the very thing that gives a song life. Listen closely to Keith’s guitar part in ‘Satisfaction’ and you can hear stompbox clicks and tiny slips in timing. No one fixed them, and thank God they didn’t. That rawness is part of the feel. It’s proof that sometimes the best move is to leave the mess alone."
