Mel Collins (of King Crimson fame) also plays sax on Miss You.
He still got his chops on tour with King Crimson. Will see him later this year in Oslo.
The session with Think I'm Going Mad was in 1977 (for Some Girls), if memory serves...

I think 1979.

I thought so, too, but I doubt that Collins came in twice for session work with the Stones. Especially after being wiped on the Miss You-single.
It's a bit weird...
I'm pretty sure the Stones did work on it in 1979, though.

Ronnie Wood said in an interview or on his radio show that he played sax on it.
Maybe they wiped his part and later substituted it with an overdub by a sax pro?

Yep, and Keith sang it first.
Not Ronnie's sax on the final version, though.

Did I miss something? The long KR vocals take is from 1982 and a totally new "jam" take which has nothing to do (except that it sounds pretty similar) with the basic track from 1979 (or 1977/78). I forgot which 1979 version(s) I have, Zentgraf lists three early versions.

I've never been able to really tell the difference between the boot versions and the official version other than the length, at least off the top of my head at this moment.
There's no way it's from the U sessions - it is the sound of ER.

So near as I can tell, are we concluding that Mel Collins played on sessions for both SOME GIRLS and EMOTIONAL RESCUE?

I agree, Bard. Mathijs had the interesting bit about Charlie's kit, though. Did they re-cut the track and simply overdub the saxophone from the previous set of sessions or is it someone other than Madman Mel on saxophone?

Or did they add the China? Lots of possibilities
