exile What a fucking great song,
Everything about it amazing
I have been obsessed with this song for some months now....

It’s an absolute STONES gem...just a beautiful song.

Can anyone tell me why it was never included on a stones album or ever released?

erikjjf It was officially released as a b-side on the IORR 7".
March 22nd, 2005 11:21 AM
texile one of my favorites - i love that middle part, "everytiiime i see ya..."
should have been on the album.
i remember being so exited when i found this single with a song i never heard on the b-side.

glencar There's an outtake boot called "Thru The Lonely Nights" which has this & that Peter Tosh song & a few others.
March 22nd, 2005 04:25 PM
Nasty Habits A lovely coda to the Jimmy Miller era - a Goat's Head Soup outtake that smokes most of the songs on GHS and IORR. I love how the middle part goes into the third part -- "Every time I seeeeeeeeeeeeeee you . . . In your cherry dresses and your shiny shoes . . . " Just one of the best songs ever . . .

I have noticed that "I think I'm Going Mad" is kind of a low-cal substitute version of Thru the Lonely Nights, especially at the end, when Jagger starts ad libbiing - they both wrap up pretty much the same way. But TTLN has about 16 tons more melody and soul.
March 22nd, 2005 04:39 PM
glencar Funny, I had the opposite view. I always thought "Mad" had more soul & feeling. I'll play both & review my ideas...
March 22nd, 2005 04:51 PM
Some Guy Cool tune! Why is this not out?
March 22nd, 2005 05:24 PM
glimmertwin50 Let's not forget the nice Mick Taylor solo (short but sweet).
March 22nd, 2005 05:40 PM
texile Lonely Nights is meloncholy and romantic......
while Mad is sad, hopeless, and just...."all the highs and lows, don't mean a thing to me...i don't give a damn........" mick sounds truly desolate here - Mad is probably my favorite b-side.
but those cherry dresses......

Soldatti Classic song, much better that his A-side.
March 23rd, 2005 04:25 AM
exile That really loose acoustic guitar rhythm is great. Is that Keith playing?

March 23rd, 2005 05:11 AM
Doxa I remember reading somewhere that Jimmy Page had something to do with the song.

texile i'd forgotten about the jimmy page connection.....
i remember reading that somewhere too and i have no idea where or if it's true.

sirmoonie Mad is just beautiful. Its Side Two Tatt worthy. My friend CF hooked me up, for which I am always grateful.

All the highs and lows.....
March 24th, 2005 06:04 PM
texile i love that part on mad when he sings weakly:
"you oughta see my shakin hands....can't even drink...sip a cup of cofee aahh.."
beautiful AND sad.
