I didnt realize Mick wrote YCAGWYW in 1964
oh yeah...
he didnt
in fact, he wasnt even writing ANY songs back then
that story is total crap
"my friend Jimmy" and "Mr Jimmy" are Jimmy Miller
Gazza can confirm or denounce this

I'm hip to Mr. Jimmy being a old friend, not the 1st time I heard this. |

I could never figure out who Mr. Jimmy was. A lot other musicians refer to him in their music. (e.g. Green Day,) |

I always thought that the Mr. Jimmy reference was a nod to either Jimmy Miller and/or James Phelge (well, according to Mr. Phelge's book, it was about him). The only one who really knows is Mick. |

Always thought that was the most likely candidate. Have to say this 'theory' is a new one on me. Sounds pretty implausible. |

this theory is nonsense
its ridiculous to think that Mick Jagger went in to buy a cherry cola at a soda shop in 1964 ***and then *** FIVE YEARS LATER --- FIVE YEARS FILLED WITH LSD USE, HASH, POT, PILLS, ARRESTS, DEBAUCHERY.... THE WILDEST YEARS OF HIS LIFE etc --- he sat down to write a song and thought back to that event... "hmm... remember that time five years ago when I wanted a cherry cola and they didnt have any.... hmmmm... what was that nice blokes name behind the counter?? Ah yes! Jimmy! Thats it! What was it he said to me?? Oh yeah! 'Ya cant always get what ya want!' Hey that would be a great hook! Quick I better call Keith..."
c'mon man
if you buy that then PM me about the Bridges to Babylon bridge. I'd like to sell it to you.
