The reason I brought this up is that maybe someone can help me out a little or tell me where to go looking.
Someone gave me a tape about a week or so ago and I've finally just had a chance to listen to it in the last couple of days. It's all covers that the Stones did, I guess probably around 63. Would I be wrong to assume that Brian played lead guitar on most of those songs? I can kind of tell but can't be ABSOLUTEY certain as theres no credits given on the liner...just who wrote the songs.
However one is credited to NANKER (Now Iv'e Got A Witness)
and one credited to N. Phelge and P. Spector (Little By Little). Now Nanker is a publishing company correct? So who actually wrote the song.
Anyway its got Route 66, I just want to make love to you, Honest I Do, Carol, I'm a King Bee,walking The Dog and several others ...the only Jagger/Richards credit is Tell Me. Anyway Brian on lead on most of those???? |

Sounds like their first album "England's Newest Hitmakers" and I believe Brian is on lead for most of it. However I was always told that Keef did the lead for "I'm a King Bee." If I am wrong them I am sure someone will correct me. :-)

In 1963 - 1964 Brian played harp (I just wonna make love to you; Honest I do, Not Fade Away, I'm king bee, Now I've got a witness (Like uncle Phil "Spector" and uncle
Gene "Pitney"), guitar (rhythme guitar on Route 66; bottle solo on I'm king bee -I only know what Brian played on these two songs.
You know, Brian and Kerth never shared the parts like -
you have play that and I'll play that. No, Brian played rhythme parts the guitar but he could played some lead parts in time when Keith played rhythme - that it is
Sincerely,

Yeah it sounds like the first album 'Englands Newest Hitmakers'.
As a rule Keith plays the Chuck Berry bits - that is the lead to 'Route 66' ,'Carol' and 'Walking the dog'. He also played the acoustic 12 string stuff ie 'Not fade away' and 'Tell me'. Brian played the slide as in 'King Bee' while on 'Just wanna make love to you' Keith plays the guitar part while Brian played the harp.
As for the Jimmy Reed lead licks on 'Honest I do' and 'Little by little' I assume it's Keith with Brian in the supporting role playing the interlocking licks. They practiced together for about 4 hours a day for the first couple of years so they absorbed each others styles. Makes it kind of hard to differentiate their roles.
'Nanker Phelge' was the early psuedonym for an original group composition as opposed to a Jagger/Richard composition which tended to be used for other artists. In any case 'Little by little' is just a rewrite of Jimmy Reeds 'Shame shame shame'. Check out Jimmy Reed and you'll hear what I mean. You'll also hear where they got their early guitar weaving style from. |
