Hi everybody's,


Listening to the OBSIDIAN releases, posted on "Hot Stuff" a few days ago
by Deltics,i've noticed that "Cellophane Trousers" aka "Back to the country"
(could be) the very early version of "Too TOUGH", it's nearly the same riff,
i didn't noticed that before.
Waitin' for your comments.

I remember having read (couldn't find the link )that the anachronistic sound of the riff,plus the elevated tone of the chorus confirmed the rumor that "Too Tough "began life as an instrumental titled "Cellophaned Trouses ".

The riff could be even dated back further,because of his strong resemblance to "I am going Down " , a rejcet from the first MT sessions in 69



I am a Frenchie ,as Mick affectionately called them in the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1977 .

Absolutely so!

And similar to Cellophane Trousers :
-Muck Spreading ( listenable on "From Paris to L.A ")

-Alright Charlie! (Voodoo Brew ) according to Rolingstonesnet.com
