Their Satanic Majesties' Second Request reveals vast experimentation with Indian drones, sitars, mellotrons, farfisas, didgeridoos, tablas, congas, and glockenspiels. [1] Following in the footsteps of Keith Richards and Brian Jones, BJM capture and explore the psychedelic rock sound of the late 1960s. [2] The opening track, All Around You (Intro), pays tribute to the showmanship of the Stones, calling one and all to the psychedelic trip that they are about to experience.[ citation needed ]
The song "Donovan Said" is itself a tribute to Donovan's "The Fat Angel", mimicking the vocal patterns of the verse at about a 3/4's of the speed.[ citation needed ]

AllMusic's Jason Ankeny wrote: "their music is too rich to be merely retro, and too knowing to be merely slavish – the Stones themselves haven't made a record this strong or entertaining in years." [1]
According to David Chang in Roadrunner , Anthony Bourdain told him that "Anemone" was his favorite song. [3]
All songs on the album were written by Anton Newcombe, except for "No Come Down" and "Miss June '75", written by Matt Hollywood.
