The Rolling Stones released Jigsaw Puzzle on December 6, 1968, on their Beggars Banquet album. The song was the longest one on the album with a playing time of 6 minutes and 7 seconds. The song was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and was considered to be blues-rock. The critics had very mixed views, and it never really achieved many accolades compared to Satisfaction and Paint It, Black, which had the highest commercial success.
