One of my favourite covers.
One of my favorite tunes by the Stones, funnily enough it's one that hasn't been penned by Jagger & Richards, indeed it's a Stevie Wonder cover, first published on the 1975 Decca-period outtakes compilation "Metamorphosis", still a favorite to me because it shows the Stones under a peculiar and unusual light, much poppier than the stuff they got famous with. And as legend has it, it's a track that was cut during the first session they did with newly hired Mick Taylor, the very night they got a phone call to tell them Brian Jones had died.
Some days I prefer the Stevie Wonder original, some days I prefer this. Both brim with soul.
Stevie Wonder cover recorded 1969 during the sessions for 'Let It Bleed'. Released on 'Metamorphosis', 1975.
