Agree 100%. An utterly spellbinding and bone-chilling track.

Stunning! Breath taking

Wish they'd play this & Coming Down Again on the next tour

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

They are channeling Howling Wolf on this one.

Hello. Anyone know where I can hear this online, please?

Thank you,

Great song!-it almost sounds like Midnight Rambler!

Keith did a great version of this on Hubert Sumlins album from a couple of years back! Great vocals and guitar!! Highly recomended.

Paul Butterfield did a good job with it too!

On his East/West LP

Y'all remember that rubber legged boy

That was absolutely staggering! Thanks for posting. Never had heard this. THey did it at the PARADISO shows in 1995 I think too.

Typical early Stones great stuff!!But thats gotta be the simplest drumming Charlie ever did..stoned kinda drumming or fall off the stool drumming as we called it.><

Yep, it's excellent too.

"No Anchovies, Please"

Is this song the same than CATFISH BLUES????????????

it's like a twin of Catfish Blues, but not exactly the same.
Catfish Blues is the one that's also known as Rollin' Stone.
Two Trains is aka Still a Fool.

I had forgotten how good this tune was. And it's (most likely) got all five Stones including Brian on it!

Here is another version (basically the same song) by Jimi:
