confused bout this now since i read this

[www.geocities.jp]

STARGROVES, NEWBURY with MOBILE RECORDING UNIT, 10.17 - 10.31.1970

OLYMPIC SOUND STUDIOS, LONDON, 10.17 - 10.31.1970

or 1968 ,, nico wrote 1968 redlands (but he¨s unshure )

Yeah that one is hard to pin down date wise as it sounds rather 70's.

I've always been dubious about the 68 date, but perhaps because there is only one guitar, ie Brian was not present, 1968 is likely. I think if it were from 1970 it would have some hot lead guitar from Mick Taylor!?

Even if it is from 1968 I really doubt that it's from Redlands though, that's just wishful thinking hehe.

thanks ! it sounds more 68 too me,,,,but ??????? !

I always thought it sounded very much like something from '68. It sounds like a Stray Cat Blues/Jumping Jack Flash/Sympathy For The Devil mish-mash kind of thing.

It does have that kind of naive rock feel of the 68 stuff. It also sounds like Keith is playing through a Triumph Silicon 100. Strange that there's no bass on it.

I think when I first heard it, it was labeled as an exile outtake, hence the imprinted 70's thing in my head.

Charlie's drumming sounds more like '68/69 than 70's to me, and I agree about the Triumph amp.

HIGHWAY CHILD
(Jagger/Richards)

Won't you come on and call my name
Can't you see I'm a only one
Whoa when you call my name
Yeah I'm the lonely one
Yeah when you come along
We go for a drive
Yeah I'm a lonely boy
Yeah going by
Every time I get to shell it down
Every time that you put me down
Can't you see by now, I'm a highway child
Can't you see by now, I'm a highway child

Whooo!

Well when you call my name
Who should you hypnotize
Yeah when you scratch my lights out
Yeah I feel it's all right
Yeah when you scratch me babe
Then you find me up peak
Yeah make me feel so good
Your plan would never look complete
Won't you come in and settle down
Can't you see I'm a hauling bound
Can't you see by now, I'm a highway bound
Can't you see by now, I'm a highway bound

Yeah get it!

Yeah!
Yeah baby when you call my name
You can see I'm the only one
Hey I'm in misery
Little mama I'm the lonely one
Yeah when you promise me
Yeah when you promise I
Yeah I'm in misery
I'm a highway child
If you promise to call my name
I can promise to settle down
Can't you see by now, I'm a highway child
Can't you see by now, I'm a highway child

LYRICS

Typical Keno, hehe, there's only one guitar and drums, no bass or Brian Jones.

Inspired lyrical interpretation, there

I don't think you can find ONE song on Keno's website with all musicians named correctly.

Great track, still is. My guess is that it is Jimmy Miller on drums.

And I think you're right.

Time is on our side is a lot more accurate. I am amazed the site hasn't done unreleased songs yet.

Back Of My Hand looks pretty accurate.

Lead Vocals, Electric Slide Guitar, Harmonica, Bass, Percussion: Mick Jagger Electric Guitar: Keith Richards Drums: Charlie Watts

just my opinion but I believe the 68 time frame is more believable especially with the cool Hendrix style guitar riff.
