a beautiful piece of music -
and that eloquent *sniff* in the "pigs in the farmyard" line is plain brilliant

Stunning song and amazing they cut it back in the late sixties! It is so hard ass, and really the swinging sixties the Stones probably had their fare share of gay groupies, artists, and hangers on. Jagger masterfully portrays the angst of a young gay boy trying to find some rough trade sex. The dirty twin of Stray Cat Blues. Some of his best lyrics and chilling guitar. Great! What about the supposed piano full band version, and I don't mean the '78 rehersal version with Sugar Blue. Can anyone comment on what they know about the other version cut during the same sessions?? Is it on Boot? Anyone have it and can pass it on??? I too have a come hither look in my eye.

Never knew about the other studio version.
That would be interesting to hear.

Yeah I mean the full band version (but not the one that is on the 78 rehearsals with Sugar Blue)
Never heard of a 1970 full band version .....
It seems that I downloaded once a CS Blues Studio demo from 1970 .I'll try to find it on my computer .

Hate to load up on this observation. But to all you Derek and the Dominoes fans, ever find it strange that song Roll It Over??? "Roll it over, lets take it from behind, Roll it over! Lets take it from behind, its only love, god knows it ain't no crime...." interesting early gay rights from the sound of it? Or is it about Heroin?

I always thought it would be interesting to research the homosexual culture around the bands of the sixties. Not much written, other than the more legendary anecdotes, ala Brian Epstien and Lennon, Ray Davies' dalliances as well. From several sources it seems Jagger was clearly infatuated with the gay sub culture, and was a participant. Kenneth Anger, Performance, C o c k s u c k e r b l u e s, infatuation with Warhol and she NY gay scene. His infatuation with diva Bowie, and most likely orgies with him as well. I am sure it was a wild scene! Tight pants and rubber in 78. Licking Ronnie. Come on someone do a coffee table book of this shit! It would be great...the art the photos, the participants accounts. Much like the book Hollywood Babylon, but with the rock edge, total performance art to the extent of becoming your character in real life. True method acting to the extreme! Oh yeah, Freddie Mercury! How could I forget! I have read he had a penchant for big sex parties after shows with pretty young boys.

YEah thanks LOU!
Thanks for the book, I just ordered it!
I think Jagger is now deeply hetrosexual, but like a lot of boys his age back then he was into experimenting... and rock isn't just macho, Elvis was prettier than most girls! There has always been a flashy gay side to rock, back to even the blues, camp and roll sometimes...
Lou probably had a truncheon with him on Street Hassles!
