Thanks a lot to Glimmerman for this great upload!
Honestman, which Watermelon Man do they cover here? I hear some similarities of the sax here to the harmonica in Big Mama Thornton's version. But not much to Herbie Hancock's original. And what does Mick sing at the end of the song? "Take a lead and I follow"? These lyrics sound improvised to me.

one is pure jazz while the other one got bluesy spirit...

Now I am wondering if they might have covered Grinderswitch's Watermelon Time in Georgia. Thanks for the nice track.

It was Hancock version I had in mind, you're right though the Stones cover is really différent but pretty good,Quote
