Nice little documentary on Netflix with Keith Richards. Very little Stones, mainly about Keith and his music likes and influences. Pretty good documentary and Keith comes off as a pretty humble guy.

One thing he does mention, and I think it is very note worthy, on the song Street Fighting Man, the guitars are all acoustic. He uses a cassette recorder and overloads it to record the guitar (there has to be a second mic to capture the sound of the guitar), then they mics the recorder to bring it into the mix. The recorder looked like a very cheap recorder with stock recorder mic.

I thought it a very interesting piece of information.
 
Interesting - haven't heard SFM for years, but I don't recall ever thinking that it was anything but acoustic guitars, at least the main rhythm parts.
