In the early 1960s, the Rolling Stones recorded a jingle for Rice Krispies. In the television commercial, Mick Jagger sings about “Rice Krispies for you and you and you.”
Folks think the ad was made around 1963 or 1964. That places the commercial around the time of the first albums by the Rolling Stones, including 1964’s The Rolling Stones (called England’s Newest Hitmakers in the U.S.) and 1964’s U.S. album 12 X 5.
Although the Stones themselves do not appear in the commercial, the ad includes what looks like screaming fans at a rock concert. And the voice is unmistakable. Check it out.
