The baby's dead my lady said you gentlemen all work for me! That line caused some major friction between Mick and Keith (who wasn't at this session as he was with Anita who eventually miscarried)
I had lyrics from this embroidered on the back of a nice suit jacket. You wouldn’t believe how many people asked me where I bought it so they could get one.
"There's a part that's not screwed on..." What a fine, fine song. When I go down memory lane I still think the original 5 WERE The Rolling Stones. I love Ronnie Wood but Brian WAS an integral part of their initial success, behind the scenes issues etc. Ask a long time Stones fan...his musical interests and yes, his looks, drew in fans. Sad his life was so short, play Phil Och's Chord's of Fame for Brian...
This is my favourite version. It has greater swagger to the other two. I think it’s actually the original recording with Steve Winwood. The same vocal track was used for the film version with Ry Cooder on slide. It needs an official release.
Here's the 411 per Wikipedia regarding all three versions, this being the first. >>> "Three different versions of "Memo from Turner" have been released, and another "Alternative Take" version is available on bootleg recordings. The first version, which is not officially released, is a slow, brooding version recorded by members of the band Traffic. It features Steve Winwood on all instruments except drums, which are played by Jim Capaldi. The second version, released on Metamorphosis in 1975 on the Allen Klein Decca/London pre-existing legacy contracts of the Stones 1960s recordings, was a different version recorded by The Rolling Stones in November 1968, and has a looser feel than the released version. This version supposedly features Al Kooper on guitar, and perhaps Keith Richards as well. Either Charlie Watts or Capaldi plays drums on this recording. Credited to "Jagger/Richards", it is not clear how many of the Rolling Stones besides Jagger actually played on it. The third version of the song, typified by its slide guitar, was the one recorded for the soundtrack to the movie Performance, starring Mick Jagger as the song title's "Turner". It is featured prominently in the movie, with Mick Jagger, as Turner, lip-synching it. This is the more well-known version of the song, as it was released as a solo single by Jagger in England in 1970 and is featured on the later Singles Collection: The London Years. This track was recorded in Los Angeles in early 1970, and uses the vocal track of the first, slow version. The tape of Jagger's vocals was sent to Jack Nitzsche, where all music parts were recorded by Ry Cooder on slide guitar, Russ Titelman (guitar), Randy Newman (piano), Jerry Scheff (bass) and Gene Parsons (drums)".
@@Methilde I prefer the universe where these both exist but things would be way cooler in a universe where Keith Richards plays it with a glass/metal slide .
@@chengzhou8711 - While Keith Richards is an outstanding rhythm guitarist who plays nasty leads as well, he didn't often play slide guitar for the Stones. Ron Wood has long handled those chores, however nowhere near as proficiently as did the masterful Mick Taylor who was lead and slide guitarist for the Stones from 1969 thru 1974. No one inc. Keith would even think to try it with Taylor in the band, for Mick T. came into the band at 20 yr. old, already a renowned slide guitar and in addition, became the most wicked lead guitarist, something that band never really had in either Brian [Jones] nor Keith. For evidence of both you need look no further than RUclips videos from 'Ladies and Gentlemen, The Rolling Stones' culled from live concerts in Texas 1972. The guy just smokes! "Love in Vain" for instance esp. at the 5 min mark with his 2nd slide solo > ruclips.net/video/ryRDcE2sB2A/видео.html
True that, Matt Kustom Kostumes. In fact, Steve Winwood played every instrument on this track except for Jim Capaldi on drums. Stevie...what a talent and only about 18 or so at the time!
You can hear mMick is a split second behind the music. For a band at that level it’s pretty bad. And I’m a huge Stones fan!

Excuse. 🎉 My Traffic very. Goodyear m'y Traffic . The Cook from Turner ❤❤❤ Exquises volupté phénoménale 68 , Very gentleman Rollings stones 🎉 3:52 🎉🎉 La poudreuse révolution estudiantine ❤ gloire éphémère de 🤣😂 nos. sixtises
So dirty and nasty. Them at their best
Along with Monkey - Jagger at his best.
BRIAN forever
Die Stones hören, ist wie nach Hause kommen. Irgendwie sicher, vertraut, geborgen.
In the picture montage I love the one where they are in the field looking like stoned Hobbits.
Ry Cooder esquire on slide. Wow.
I had lyrics from this embroidered on the back of a nice suit jacket. You wouldn’t believe how many people asked me where I bought it so they could get one.
Which lyrics?
@@fenianbastard6226 ‘ Come now, gentlemen Your love is all I crave You'll still be in the circus When I'm laughing, laughing in my grave’
Brian Jones obviously needed to be given more drugs before recording this.
Brian on the groove guitar.
So much depth to their music. And variety. Never will there be another band as great. We are fortunate to have them.
Naaah, this one's nowhere near as good (or as powerful) as the released version. Just MHO.
Badly lacks the Ry Cooder slide, but interesting version.....
Whenever I enjoy this tune, it reminds of money i blew on coke. Numb grin😮
When I think of the Stones, this is the stuff I think of. Especially with Ry Cooder
Ugliest sex symbols ever man. Capt for Mick, that fucker always was pretty.
Not the same without Ry's slide work
Great version, but the original is way more awesome.
Lyrics, wow. I prefer the movie'sversion, and to me, I miss Bill's bass. ( no acrobatic notes, but that huge, deep, sound.
Performance version with Mick and Ry Cooder is better. This song is credit to Jagger alone.
My favorite Worst Best Dirty Stupid Senseless Musically SuPerb piece. the silences are awesome!!!!
You're the first person I've ever heard that also loves those silences in Memo- congrats on your superior intelligence and taste in music!
Yes you all work for HIM. Salutations to departed members.
Rare find. I’ve always loved the original. But this one Knox not at the park 😳👏👍🌹
Sleaziest song ever.
Brian Jones never really got to fully understand his role with the Stones but this is proof enough that he added artistic value to the band
No Brian here.
TRES Cool
Arguably, the best vocal ever by Mick Jagger with this Dylanistic cut.

Jagger's most committed vocals and finest lyrics IMO.
If you appreciate the lyrics you have to see the movie "Performance" if it's not already done.
Jagger...is quite enjoying Winwoods support..... ( This is best version......isn't it ? )
Heroin users
Loved this song, thanks for all the photos, how young they where and how mature the music sounded.
love to have this in higher quality-this is too fuzzy
RIP. Mr. Watts. Play on up there.
Sounds like Dylan
Thank you Ry Cooder for that crankin’ bottleneck on the final version.
And then Ry Cooder showed up and saved the day

its all about that Charlie shuffle in this song
except it's not Charlie
This sounds like Jagger on vocals
Going to go out on a limb and say that this is the version with Steve Winwood. It sounds very Traffic-esque.
I was today years old when I found out that this version exists and... eh, it’s okay.
waooo
Bass, guitar, keys all Winwood. Plus Capaldi on drums. Whew...fantastic!

It's a sleazy version for sure..love it..👍🙏

very helpful comment sir, thanks much
Prefer the one with Ry Cooder. Thanks for the informations.

So cool to hear Mick backed by Traffic on this take.
