Out of Focus, absolutely!

Very powerfull!!!

If it had been on a Stones album, we'd be talking about it being a latter-day Stones classic. Flea's bass takes it to another level and having Billy Preston on it makes it very special to me.....seeming to harken back to the gospel leanings ala Exile. And Jagger's voice is fantastic, no whine, just real emotion about lost love and regret. Its also interesting to me that Jagger did two remakes for WS: Frederick Knight's "I've been Lonely For So Long" and Bill Withers "Use Me", both from 72. I always wondered if Jagger was listening to Exile during this period, feeling nostalgic because the entire album has a very retro feel.....of course, he would never admit it.

That "retro" feel was courtesy of Rick Rubin, who even recorded it with Exile-era gear, much to the dismay of Mick who likes to stay state-of-the-art.

I always try again with Micks solo stuff however I played "Primitive Cool" yesterday for the first time in years, after a couple of songs i took it out and frisbeed it into the bin, its still a worthless turd im afraid, Dirty Work is a masterpiece in comparison

Yeah, I know that but inviting Billy Preston to play on it suggested that Jagger may have been going for that "Shine a Light", early 70s gospel, soul groove....

"Out of Focus" is still available as a single CD on Amazon and EBAY. It looks like it was released just in Europe. I recently bought it from a seller in Germany for $7.00 including shipping. It was $7.00 well spent.

There is a 7" and a 12" HIPGRASS version along with a 12" WHATSTAX DUB version and the album version.

If you dont already have it, buy it - every version is a standout cut
