Casino Boogie is a song by the British band The Rolling Stones, featuring on their 1972 album, Exile on Main St. Written by Keith Richards and Mick Jagger, the song was recorded at Villa Nellcote, Richards home in the South of France. The song is based around a straightforward blues rhythm which produces the 'boogie' feel. Richards prominent backing vocals and Bobby Keys saxophone solo are other features of the track.
Casino Boogie was not released as a single and has never been played live by The Stones, despite being a highlight of the album. It is also a notable example of Keith Richards' dominant influence on the stones musical direction during the Exile sessions.
