Ok Stones experts, I've got a question. On the officially-released Metamorphosis album, there are several tracks (such as "Try A Little Harder", "Some Things Just Stick in Your Mind", and "Each And Every Day Of The Year" ) on which Mick is the only Rolling Stone who plays. Also on Metamorphosis, "I'd Much Rather Be With The Boys" features only Mick and Keith.
Besides the Metamorphosis tracks, are there any other official Rolling Stones releases that contain only 1 or 2 Rolling Stones? I have a feeling there are but I can't recall off the top of my head.
Thanks in advance.

Yes yes, CS blues was released in 1984 in Germany on a compilation album called "The rest of the best, The Rolling Stones story 2.
Decca in Geramny declined to comment - discontinued in 1985.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts on this. So it looks like there were 7 or 8 tracks (mostly the ones that DP listed) where only TWO Stones contributed, but no officially-released tracks (besides the Metamorphosis tracks, and CS Blues in Germany) which had only ONE Stone on board.
Interesting.
Cheers all!

Wow... Ronnie is not on six tracks from ABB! I guess I should pay more attention
To the cd booklet.

Would any of this effect the individual cut of the sales profits that each band member receives?
I always assumed that Brian, for example, whose contribution to BB was very limited, would still have got his 20% cut of royalties.

Since only one or two are missing on these songs, I don't think these songs can be labeled as 'Solo Stones'.

Three band members on that one (Charlie, Bill and Mick). And there is still some doubt about whether it's Keith or Ry on guitar. At least, it hasn't been confirmed that it is indeed Ry playing..
