FlinterFile: The Rolling Stones- Undercover Of The Night
In 1983, the Rolling Stones released one of their few political songs.

Together with the corruption in Chile and Argentina, which the US supported, it made a very political song. They brought in Chuck Leavell, who played the keyboards and was in the Allman Brothers Band, put a lot of echo in it (which was difficult) and had a hit: number 9 in the US and number 11 in the UK.
