Quotebitusa2012 Yeah, I just don’t get that the, you know, ACTUAL ROLLING STONES, don’t hear what some of you hear in Daryl’s playing. That is… nothing. Our heroes must be tone deaf to hear his non-contribution. It's not uncommon in rock and roll for musicians to prize technical qualities that their fans couldn't care less about.

Quote71Tele Good points, DP! The bridges are indeed one thing musically different about these songs, as well as the three-guitar onslaught (which I have mentioned). Also agree about Wood's role.

QuoteIrix Quoteblivet I guess it's possible that Pasche took inspiration from the "Day Tripper" illustration, and told Braun so when Braun was tying to put together the album package without having Pasche's artwork directly available.

QuoteIrix Quoteblivet Mystery solved! It describes how the T&L logo was redrawn by Craig Braun's company, early 1971 in New York City. But it does not explain why the logo by John Pasche (created in 1970 in London, UK) has a very similar shape & geometry compared to Alan Aldridge's illustration (1969). OK, but at least we now have Braun explicitly stating in so many wor

Although I've made an effort to purchase whatever necessary in order to own all of their officially released tracks, I'm not a "collector" in that I felt no desire to own all of the color variants of the Some Girls cover, nor did I buy the album again when the revised cover art was issued.

I know that this was available on bootleg back in the 1970s, because I saw a copy. I've always wondered what a Stones cover of "Love Potion No. 9" would sound like.
