レット・イット・ブリード
As with "Beggars Banquet" the previous year, the album marks a return to the group's more blues-based approach that was prominent in the pre-"Aftermath" period of their career. The main inspiration during this string of albums was American roots music and "Let It Bleed" is no exception, drawing heavily from gospel (evident in "Gimme Shelter" and "You Can't Always Get What You Want"), Hank Williams and Jimmie Rodgers ("Country Honk"), Chicago blues ("Midnight Rambler"), as well as country blues ("You Got the Silver", "Love in Vain") and country rock ("Let It Bleed").
