Mick Jagger - tambourine Keith Richards - electric guitar Charlie Watts - drums Bill Wyman - bass Brian Jones - harmonica Ian Stewart - organ Gene Pitney - organ Phil Spector - maracas
Produced by Andrew Loog Oldham
First released on: The Rolling Stones - “The Rolling Stones” LP (Decca LK 4605) UK, April 16, 1964
I'd love to know some more about the history of this recording because I believe it took place after a drinking session that culminated in the hilarious Fu ckin' Andrew spoof.
I never heard of Gene Pitney playing the organ before so I guess it turned into a free for all after they got back from the pub. Odd to have 2 organs on one song in 64 - eat ya heart out Keith Emerson and Rick Wakeman.
Anyway, great little 12 bar blues that coasts along neatly and sounds great motorvatin' around in the summertime.
