Sympathy For The Devil was filmed in 1968 when the Rolling Stones were at the peak of their creative powers, by Jean-Luc Godard, legendary French New Wave Director. For many the main attraction of Sympathy For The Devil is seeing the band take a loose outline of a song and turn it into a stirring, fully realised, creation. Beginning as a ballad, the track gradually acquires a pulsating groove, which gets Jagger into a rousing vocal display of soulful emotion, which Godard is lucky enough to capture on film.
