If Ronnie wasn't there (which seems a bit strange since they recorded in his basement) and the lyrics were added afterwards: Was Keith the only Stone to participate on that song?
And in that case - is it a Rolling Stones song then?

Christiaan, as far as I know no one had heard anything of, or in any form of, "Plundered" before the official release. Nor of "Following The River". In both cases, there seemingly was only a very basic backing track existing. I recall them saying that their leading idea was to discover tracks not familiar from bootlegs. At that time, Don Was also mentioned "Scarlet" (as this thread proves).
It could be that there really isn't any such truely hidden, secret gems to be found more in their vaults. At least from the golden days. And with "Plundered" and "Following the River" they (particularly Mick) seemingly needed to work hard to come up with a finished song. That was something Mick himself was vocal about at the time. Probably more than for TATTOO YOU even (the backing tracks being in a more rough form)...

I realize Following The River is not universally liked, but once again Jagger really made some magic there IMO.

Anyway, it doesn't belong on a Goats Head Soup reissue.
Next?!

So now wondering ...whatever happened to Scarlet? It's been less than a week and it seemingly has disappeared already from all of the press and the general public?
What started out with a massive bang of publicity, with headlines screaming NEW STONES FEATURING JIMMY PAGE practically everywhere you look, has all of the sudden ended in somewhat of a whimper.
To be fair the same happened with the superior Criss Cross, but maybe it's a sign that the general public/real world outside of IORR doesn't really give a crap about some outdated "treasures" that have been dug up and scraped from the barrel. I have a feeling the real world/general public would appreciate and accept a brand new album of originals vs. this dredging up of ancient artifacts and Ghost Town showed some of that acceptance

My guess is that IORR was Ronnie's song. Then one might speculate why he didn't make any fuzz when Jagger and Richards claimed it theirs...
