Tell Me :
Talk
Yep!
LOVE this track...used to play it/sing it to tardy son most school mornings. Fond memories now of those days for both of us. The best Stones songs become a part of your life...forever grateful to the band for introducing me to this one.
Most likely open D or E (Richards) and standard (Taylor).
That is exactly the image that always pops into my head when I think of the song. Jagger with the bottle, and "Yu gotti moove"
Spot on. A lot of folks just wouldn't get it...but Charlie's drumming on YGM is sublime.
I love the Stones version of 75/76 especially the one in Paris, even Bill Preston does an excellent job in that version.
They add their voices and their tone, which all is different to that of McDowell's, of course.

Like I said, and referring to the studio version, it subtracts from the McDowell version losing the darkness and starkness - almost to the point of becoming a mockery.

I like the slide octave interval played by Taylor and Richards.

Guess I'll have to reupload it as "Charlie Watts You Gotta Move Outtake" on my youtube channel, then they'll tell me in the comments that it's really Keith

... but try to follow the drumming
on the Sticky Fingers version. It's amazing how such simple drumming can build up so
much tension.

Here's an interesting story to add to this thread. On the Live Fred McDowell Album "Shake 'Em On Down Live in NYC" Fred plays You Gotta Move. He starts off by saying he gets tired of playing it but people always ask to hear it anyway. Immediately after, someone in the audience yells something inaudible with the words "Mick Jagger". The recording is obviously post Sticky Fingers, but gives an interesting full circle spin on the story. Here in NYC a bunch of young kids are paying to hear the aging bluseman perform his original song and probably only even know of Fred McDowell via Sticky Fingers. Also if you dig blues, please check out this album. Its just Fred and his guitar but his performance swings and grooves extremely hard. The rhythm and feel of the album is excellent.

This is a song for the Drunks. Just like the Lou Reed song Goodnight Ladies Goodnight.
Goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
It's time to say goodbye
Let me tell you, now, goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
It's time to say goodbye
Ah, all night long you've been drinking your tequilla rye
But now you've sucked your lemon peel dry
So why not get high, high, high and
Goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
Goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
It's time to say goodbye
Goodnight sweet ladies, all ladies goodnight
It's time to say goodbye, bye-bye
Ah, we've been together for the longest time
But now it's time to get high
Come on, let's get high, high, high
And goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
Oh, I'm still missing my other half
Oh, it must be something I did in the past
Don't it just make you wanna laugh
It's a lonely Saturday night
Oh, nobody calls me on the telephone
I put another record on my stereo
But I'm still singing a song of you
It's a lonely Saturday night
Now, if I was an actor or a dancer that was glamorous
Then, you know, an amorous life would soon be mine
But now the tinsel light of star break
Is all that's left to applaud my heart break
And eleven o'clock I watch the network news
Oh, oh, oh, something tells me that you're really gone
You said we could be friends, but that's not what's not what I want
And, anyway, my TV-dinner's almost done
It's a lonely Saturday night
I mean to tell you, it's a lonely Saturday night
One more word, it's a lonely Saturday night
Goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
It's time to say goodbye
Let me tell you, now, goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
It's time to say goodbye
Ah, all night long you've been drinking your tequilla rye
But now you've sucked your lemon peel dry
So why not get high, high, high and
Goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
Goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
It's time to say goodbye
Goodnight sweet ladies, all ladies goodnight
It's time to say goodbye, bye-bye
Ah, we've been together for the longest time
But now it's time to get high
Come on, let's get high, high, high
And goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
Oh, I'm still missing my other half
Oh, it must be something I did in the past

To me there's nothing drunk about it. I hear a profoundly spiritual chant about wandering souls, incarnations, the true nature of the big wheel game. Vague as it comes it's also about earthly hardship like levee break and flooding (if you see no use in mysticism)

What if songs were grammatically correct?
Instead of "You gotta Move" it would be "You have to Move"
Instead of "I Can't get no Satisfaction" it would be "I can't get any Satisfaction" The lyrics would sound funny: "I can't get any , ah no , no, no......

What is there to add? I believe that the covers are not played to add something, it's just a song played by others, maybe in a different way, but it doesn't have to add anything to the original!Quote
Hairball
Decent cover but adds nothing to the original. In fact it subtracts from the original...it lacks the darkness and starkness.
The real deal....
Mississippi Fred McDowell - You gotta move
I love the Stones version of 75/76 especially the one in Paris, even Bill Preston does an excellent job in that version.

Uhh..."awful"? "filler"? I guess one person's "filler" is another's gem, but the inclusion of 'You Gotta Move' works very, very well for me, and I don't think it's done in a cheeky or campy way either, especially on an album which already has dark "what does it all mean" themes on it. It fits perfectly.
If any blues number is ever going to feel like "filler" in their discography, I'd say 'Back of my Hand' is more out of place and "filler" on ABB.

Reminiscent of Al Jolson singing Mammy.
The Stones have so many great blues covers, but this isn't one of them.
