Does anyone know who plays the backing track on Marianne Faithful's performance of 'Something Better' on 'Rock and Roll Circus? Sorry if this has been asked and/or posted before. It seems possible that it's the Stones, but...

I believe its just the studio version of the song playing as she sings live. If you're asking about who played on the studio version, I'm not sure. Don't think its the Stones though.

Hm, interesting. Never even crossed my mind it would be them on the studio version, but awesome if it is.
