Get Off of My Cloud

"Get Off of My Cloud" is a rock track by The Rolling Stones, written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards as a follow-up to "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction." Recorded at RCA Studios in Hollywood in September 1965, it topped the charts in the US, UK, Canada, and Germany. For electric guitar players, the song offers a solid study in the raw, rhythm-driven style that defined the Stones' mid-1960s sound, making it a rewarding piece for players exploring classic British Invasion rock.

  • The song was written specifically as the next single after the massive commercial success of "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction."
  • Recorded at RCA Studios in Hollywood, California, the track reflects the Stones' use of American studio resources during their mid-1960s tours.
  • "Get Off of My Cloud" reached number one in four major markets, including the US and UK, cementing its place in Rolling Stones history.

Keith's preferred amp, the Twin Reverb's headroom and natural breakup create that sweet spot where tubes work hard without full distortion, perfectly complementing his open-tuning dynamics and pick attack sensitivity.
