Both good calls...if I could 'recognise' Jimi/Jimmy, life would be a whole lot easier
I will have a trawl through the B&B sessions recordings to check on possibilities...
The only Rotterdam recordings I heard were much worse quality...time for a look through Stonesvault if there is a good one...
Cheers.

It's a Jimmy Reed style harp!
At RCA Studios, Los Angeles, August 27 1978 the Stones played a Jimmy Reed cover "My First Plea" (4 versions) and also "Jimmy Reed Jam".
>> Vocals/Guitar Keith Richards, Harmonica Mick Jagger, Piano Ian Stewart, bass probably Ron Wood <<
You could find these tracks on "From Paris to L.A." (Yellow Cat Records).
Maybe the song you're asking for is from the same sessions but I couldn't identify the song. I think they talk about Jimmy Reed during their discussion.
I do not believe that this is from Jam-session with Jimmy Reed on 10th or 11th July 1966 in Chicago.
[en.wikipedia.org] :
"The Rolling Stones have cited Reed as a major influence on their sound, and their early set lists included Reed's songs "Ain't That Lovin' You Baby", "The Sun Is Shining" (played by the Stones at the 1969 Altamont concert), "Bright Lights, Big City" and "Shame, Shame, Shame". The B-side of their February 1964 hit single "Not Fade Away" was a pastiche of "Shame, Shame, Shame", entitled "Little by Little". Their first album, The Rolling Stones (subtitled England's Newest Hit Makers in America), released in April 1964, featured "Little by Little" and their cover version of Reed's "Honest I Do" "

The quality on those is pretty much the same throughout. I don't think it's from those tapes specifically, but from that era.
