The Rolling Stones scored their seventh UK No.1 single when ‘Jumpin Jack Flash’ hit the top of the charts. Keith Richards has stated that he and Jagger wrote the lyrics while staying at Richards’ country house, where they were awoken one morning by the sound of gardener Jack Dyer walking past the window. When Jagger asked what the noise was, Richards responded: “Oh, that’s Jack – that’s jumpin’ Jack.”

In honor of this, here is a picture of The Rolling Stones from 1968

‘Wines That Rock’ have put out wines inspired by The Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd.  Co-Founder Ron Roy has put together ‘Forty Licks Merlot’ and ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon Cabernet Sauvignon’.  Sounds pretty interesting.  I just hope the quality is as good as the albums they represent.  Their site is Wines-That-Rock so check it out if you want to order.
