Hey Negrita is better than Hot Stuff IMHO.

What always perplexes me about this song is that I have absolutely no memory of ever hearing it on Top-40 radio at the time (and it was a top 10 single in the US). Yes, I was only 12 but I listened to AM radio all the time and caught American Top 40 every week. I remember hundreds of other songs from this time period (and most of them sucked). The first "current" Stones single I heard on the radio was Miss You 2 years later.

Was Fool to cry the first song ever that Mick played an instrument on on stage?
(Not counting the harmonica and all sorts of percussions, of course).
Almost certainly. I know that he played a guitar at some Danish gig rehearsal in 1970 but 99 per cent sure the string synth was his first live instrument.
Mick used a Hohner Clavinet on Fool To Cry live in 1976, Billy Preston played ARP Solina String Ensemble synthesizer and Hammond organ.
I feel I shouldn't like Fool To Cry, but for some reason I do.
The first time Mick played guitar live was YCAGWYW on Rock´n´´Roll Circus.
2nd time was Fingerprint File on US Tour 1975.
The first time he played keyboarsd on stage was Fool To Cry.
The classic 76 performance...

This could possibly be the worst song in their catalog. Even the lyrics are horrible.

If you have kids they're not THAT horrible?

Fool To Cry is a cool blues ballad and I'd see to see it played live. The closing is so restrained and still packs a punch!!
