It's a good cover song, but really more of a soul song than a blues number, isn't it?

I thought Mick Jaggers vocals on the Soul-covers Stones did was so good that I never entered the original soul until much later .... or maybe not at all, if truth be told here ...Mick is the best ...

I wouldn't go so far to claim that Mick is better than the original masters, but I think Jagger is very effective to use his own voice - which is thinner than his black colleagues - and he unds up sounding original. I think there is no point in comparison, since they are so different (I mean, he is not any Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, or salomon Burke, but, thankfully, Mick Jagger...). Besides, I think that brief 'soul period' they had, worked very well for Mick to develop his interpretation skills as a singer.

Completely agree with you. And this becomes even more clear whenever Jagger sings together with one of the original masters - be it Solomon Burke, Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Don Covay ... on paper he shouldn't even dare to share the same stage, in fact they all speak the same language!

Oops! apples and oranges here...I would never had say that Mick Jagger could be compared to a real blues-man like Muddy Waters, or Buddy Guy..but Jagger singing for examples just 'Cry to Me'...who beats it?

Well, when OUT OF OUR HEADS was new, and it was the US song list, which featured in the very first Stones album I owned myself, at that time I was even more delighted by "Cry To Me" and "That's How Strong My Love Is" than "Satisfaction".
