QuoteThe Sicilian For the last few tours "Honky Tonk Woman" was the start of the their encore. That song usually showed up around 9 to 11 in the setlist. The ubiquitous clinking of the cowbell by Charlie signified that for the hard core fan of the Stones, the show was over. More than just "over".... I was at a show a long time back, and was sitting immediately behind some

QuoteGreen Lady ) Take a look at the chart details on Wikipedia. The Chris Farlowe version of Out Of Time was No.1 in the UK and made the top 20 in several other countries, but never got above no.122 in the USA. The Stones version wasn't a single at all. Mick's right: most of them don't know it, so if it keeps falling flat I wouldn't be surprised to see it dropped.

I believe that's from 11th Sept 1966 Ed Sullivan. It seems to have had the original soundtrack (qv) replaced with an album track. Originally there was quite a lot of audience screaming at the start. (Of course, the audience screaming version could be the one that was modified, and this one is the 'original')! (Edited to correct date typo).
