LOL
sorry..I fucked up in my reply and hit "edit" instead of "quote" - I pm'd Ronnie B Wood and explained....I was hoping he'd be the only person to notice
He was just asking what were the correct lyrics of "Bitch" - was it "you got to mix it, Charlie, you got to fix it" or "you got to mix it, child, you got to fix it.."
No controversy, Justin...lol

Jimmy Miller on cowbell probably set the date of the recording way back to June 1969.
Mick Taylor played the riff guitar. Right channel. He probably wrote it too. The song. Together with Mick Jagger. Never got any credits. Or royalties. Bitch was probably Mick Taylor all the way. Probably The Rolling Stones minus Keith Richards. A groove tune which Mick Jagger recently named it. Put In other words? A studio jam. Remember the old days of Nanker and Phelge?
Keith Richards takes the solo. Left channel. The solo at the end comprise many takes enhanced to sound as one guitar in the final mix. Everything was overdubbed at a later stage.
If you put some focus to it, you will hear a third guitar in the center of the hi-fi image. Deep down in the mix. Probably remnants from the original basic recording.
Bill Wyman and Mick Taylor on bass guitars. It sounds like they share the spotlight during the intro, choruses, bridge and coda. Mick seems on the other hand to solo through the verses.
Mick Jagger sings about Charlie Watts in the chorus and second verse. Yeah you got to mix it, Charlie, ya got to fix it, must be love, it's a bitch. Why else would Mick Jagger mention the big bass drum? My heart starts beating like a big bass drum. Charlie didn't like what he heard during the rehearsals for Bitch?
If this is true then this is the second time Charlie Watts is mentioned by name in a song lyric. The first time was back in 1964 in the song Down The Road Apiece.
At least the horns were superimposed at Stargroves. At a later stage. |

no, because hes comparing a pounding heart to the beat of a bass drum (which is quite loud). It's "child" that he's singing, not "Charlie" I think, although I've often thought it sounds like Charlie.

Charlie McCoy is the name of the guy mentioned in that song, not Charlie Watts. Plus the Stones didnt write "Down the Road Apiece". Don Raye did - he was a boogie-woogie/swing composer in the 1930's. When the song was written, Charlie Watts wasn't even born. The Stones would have probably learned their version (with different lyrics) from Chuck Berry's cover. The "Charlie McCoy" mentioned in the song is probably the Mississippi blues musician from the '30's, and not the Nashville session musician of the same name... |
