I'm Going Down

This is a terrific earlier song by the Stones, with a great riff by Keith and vocals by Jagger. It has a classic Stones feel and is one of my favorites.

overlooked gem. One of my favorite Stones tunes all time. Did Taylor have a hand in writing this one?

I was there but I don't remember the setlist:
Did Jagger perform this song on the National Music Day in London years ago?

Different song.
This is a (live) cover of Freddie King's blues number.

That's why I already wrote: 'By the Jeff Beck Group, 1972'.

Yeah, but you should have written: "By Freddie King, 1971". Keith did a nice version of this at the Guitar Legends Festival in Seville in 1991.

Ok, I knew this Track only from the Jeff Beck Group Album.

Wikipedia: "Don Nix had written 'Going Down' and it was originally released by the [Memphis blues rock] band Moloch in 1969. Freddie King had covered the song in 1971." - [www.Discogs.com] .

...and apart from that, the "Going Down" you reffered to - wether it be done by the Leff Beck Group, Freddie King ór Moloch - has nothing to do with the "Going Down" (Jagger/richards) on the Metamorphosis album; the one Flilflam referred to in his original post...

And yes, you (probably) "know" this.
But that surely wasn't clear from your post. So at least, you definitely know nów. thumbs up

Both were played by the Stones - and both (similar named) Tracks can be liked (or not) ....

Drenched with "stonesiness"...those guitars are sublime, as is the all around vibe...one of the greats.

Don’t think I ever heard this before. When was this recorded?

When was this recorded?

I'm Going Down (2:52) - recorded primarily in the fall of 1969. Line up: Mick Jagger (vocals), Keith Richards (guitar), Mick Taylor (bass), Charlie Watts (drums), Bobby Keys (sax), Jon Tiven (congas). Stephen Stills was with the Stones during recording and possibly contributed to the track. Credited to Jagger, Richards and Taylor on the first pressing of the album, the credits were changed to 'Jagger/Richards' with the second pressing and on the 2002 SACD version - Wikipedia .

It's one of the few tunes we never made a 'track talk' of, for some reason. We've had several threads discussing it, like you say, though.
