The backing track is similarly woozy, particularly in Keith Richards' slide guitar, Ian Stewart's carefree piano, and Bill Wyman's autoharp, with some really hard to define squeaky note-noises. The amiable, highly hummable blues-rock tune has a jerky, somewhat uneven rhythm slightly suggestive of a tipsy party guest who's imbibed just enough booze to make him less inhibited and more entertaining, but not enough to make him a truly annoying drunk. The Stones were better than anybody else at making a slightly sloppy approach work for them rather than against them, and "Let It Bleed" could be the best illustration. "Let It Bleed," the title track of the Rolling Stones' 1969 album of the same name, was also one of the strongest LP-only songs the band released in its career.
