JANE'S ADDICTION Cover THE ROLLING STONES For Sons Of Anarchy
November 1, 2012, 12 years ago
Sons Of Anarchy music composer Bob Thiele has issued the following statement:
"When JANE'S ADDICTION said they were into the idea of doing 'Sympathy For The Devil' (by THE ROLLING STONES) for the show, we were completely blown away. This was made all the more sweet because theirs was the first and only door we knocked on. Jane's Addiction is one of the few post '60s/'70s, iconic bands that resonates with our show's mythology. They have typified rebellion from their very beginnings. It seemed a natural fit between a band and a song with so many layers of meaning to the Sons Of Anarchy narrative. I can proudly say that the end product speaks for itself. Working with them, as a band and as individuals, was an incredibly satisfying experience."On the season finale of Sons Of Anarchy, Jane's Addiction will cover 'Sympathy For The Devil'; the track will also be featured on the SOA Volume 2 soundtrack, available November 19th.
Jane's Addiction originally issued a live version of 'Sympathy For The Devil' in 1987 on their self-titled album.
