In England 1965 March theatre tour, they did not do an encore………they couldn’t because in those days as soon as the headline act left the stage the National anthem was played…….and that really did put a damper on things ! I believe now in 2024 we will start to see more encores, perhaps after every two songs ? As these men are in their 80s and will need to pee before the end of the show !

Martin Elliott has very kindly clarified the entry (below) in his Complete Recording Sessions book. It was his entry (a) Alternative Version. (2.06) which I did not understand and could not find any info about which triggered me to post. 9 July 1963 Decca, London, England. S0027. Fortune Teller I (2.18) (a) Alternative Version (2.06) S0028. Fortune Teller II (1.56) Martin has now

Good thinking Irix (why didn't I think of that !). I will try to contact Martin and post what I find out.
Forum: Tell Me

Thank you to everyone for the info. It is now clear that on 9th July 1963 the Stones recorded only 2 versions of Fortune Teller ( a 2.16 take and a 1.56 take). Both of these had audience overdubs added in 1966. However...............the original question still stands......Martin Elliott lists 3 takes on 9th July 1963.......what is the 2.06 take ? or has Martin added this take mistakenly

Thanks Irix. It does indeed help a lot. I had forgotten about Felix.

I am organising my digital Stones collection into chronological recording sessions and would welcome some help with the track "Fortune Teller". Nico Zentgraf lists 2 versions of Fortune Teller both recorded on 09/07/1963; Fortune Teller 1 (with repeated last verse and a harmonica) Fortune Teller 2 (with single last verse and no harmonica) Version 1 was released in 1964 on the Sa

Thanks again to all for your posts, especially Ironbelly for posting the cd picture. This collection of songs is not well documented when it comes to the Stones involvement. Nico’s site does not list any recording of IWBYM as an ALO orchestra track………….which may suggest no Stones involvement at all. This was the period that ALO was doing his Phil Spector thing and Jagger/Richards were busily tr

Brian is using the Vox peardrop guitar, so would that date it either 64 or 65 ? I don’t think he used it in 66 and it’s first use was when “It’s All Over Now” was released. The clothes look 65. The stage front has a protective wire mesh on a wooden frame added. This was not common in Uk theatres, many of which had an orchestra pit which pushed the audience much further away from the stage.

I am not sure SSOH would work well in a stadium setting………….it is a slow paced song. I Got The Blues worked at the Marquee and SSOH worked at the Rackett, but unless they come out into a small stage in the audience, which they are not going to do again imho, then I just can’t see SSOH working well. I also doubt they will be playing a 2 hour set list any more, unless it is seated!

I don’t think there is any film of him on stage pre 1969.....but I haven’t checked Charlie Is My Darling.....I believe he used to play in the wings (edge of stage but out of sight of most of the audience). You could also explore the NME Poll Winners concert footage from 1965, that was a big wide and deep stage and he may just possibly be at the back, he was certainly present setting up. How
