The UK pressings didn't come with the picture sleeve, though.

Green Lady
1963 - Green Lady is off to school in Twickenham on her ancient and unreliable pushbike, hoping that today the chain won't come off yet again and make her arrive late and filthy from having to stop and reconnect it. All the three miles to school the song plays in her head and the pedals go up and down to the rhythm of "I wish someone would come along and run into it and wreck it" - and at school the older girls talk about the band they saw at the Island Hotel.

You should check the latest setlist. Sorry, but as many criticisms there are about the Stones, they are still awesome.Quote

Wow, thanks for the reminder, I'm going to play my original today. Would be interesting if The Stones played this live, at least once.

Most of the early sixties Stones UK-singles probably came in the standard orange Decca company sleeve?

At this moment, it's still the 6th June in UK.
It might be Bill who does the falsetto.
