Thanks to Mad Men, the Rolling Stones' 1964 Rice Krispies jingle resurfaces

Last night's episode of Mad Men referenced a long forgotten, but now remembered chapter in the storied history of the Rolling Stones–their 1964 jingle for popular breakfast cereal Rice Krispies, which ran in an ad in the UK.

It's a very early example of musicians recording jingles to order for companies, a practice that's very common today. The original spot can be seen below.
