Has Charlie EVER sung on anything in concert? Or in the studio for that matter?

I think I saw him sing at the end of R&R Circus, I'd ahve to go bakc and look.

This is Charlie singing an early version of Jumping Jack Flash in 1965

Of course. He sung the Canadian National Anthem in Toronto on the Voodoo Lounge Tour. He was FA-BU-LOUS!

Charlie and Brian sing Salty Dog backstage in the Charlie Is My Darling video.

LOL That is one of the funniest scenes ever when Charlie is singing backstage in that movie. God, talk about tonedeaf!
Seiously, I wonder what CW is doing in that photo. It looks like some kind of soundcheck. It almost looks like Charlie is getting the mike ready for Jagger, which just strikes me as odd.
BTW Charlie has of course never sunbg anything. They get him to announce a song every now and then. In the old days he did it regularly. Usually got it wrong too. There is one well knoiwn incident that cracks the whole band up when he announces a song that they already have played.

"...no longer shall you trudge 'cross my peaceful mind."

In the liner notes for 'Bridges To Babylon,' Charlie is credited as "Drums/Background Vocals" on the song "Always Suffering." I've always thought that was odd. Misprint? Inside joke?

He's announcing the next song.

a joke, it would appear. Charlie was asked about it in an AOL online chat in 1998 and he said he knew nothing about it

Charlie did some intro's around this time, Paris, & is it Honolulu where he intro's a song they've already done.

he is also part of the woo woo chorus on sympathy

on the FF (olympia disc I think) Mick hands him the mic and Charlie says
Now I'm gonna sing you ... ...........er, but he won't let me

Chelsea, can tell the whole story?

Cheers,
Wuudy

i reckon Chelsea's referring to the Honolulu 66 recording, where Charlie's asked to introduce something - i may have it the wrong way wrong, but:
as usual, Charlie starts with "now we'd like to play one of our favourite numbers ... " and he comes up with The Last Time, which they'd already played.
the band cracks up, and Mick says something like "no! we played that years ago!" (it was supposed to be Lady Jane, if memory serves.)
at the 1964 NME Awards gig Charlie also needs some help recalling which of their favourite numbers they're going to play (that time it was I'm Alright).


"What do you want - what?!"
- Keith

I was at a Stones concert in the '60's where Charlie introduced "Lady Jane".

with sssoul is right, except I think it's Brian who starts laughing and corrects Charlie. Charlie does indeed announce 'The Last Time,' which they had played only 3 (I believe) songs previous. That's the Honolulu concert, where the band sounds great, incidentally.

On the Paris Olympia 65 bootleg, Charlie introduces Little Red Rooster.

>> Charlie introduces Little Red Rooster <<

yes, it's one of their favourite numbers. :E

Maybe he could do Lisa's part on Gimmie Shelter???????

Charlie, ever so sweetly, introduces I'm Alright at NME Pollwinners Concert, Empire Pool, Wembley.....April 26 1964.....worth a look.
