“What rap did that was impressive was to show there are so many tone-deaf people out there,” he says. “All they need is a drum beat and somebody yelling over it and they’re happy. There’s an enormous market for people who can’t tell one note from another.” - Keef

Some individual songs:

Don Henley – Bramble Rose
Jerry Lee Lewis – Evening Gown
Jerry Lee Lewis – Dead Flowers
Peter Wolf – Nothing But The Wheel
Peter Frampton – Tried To Love

You can find him on several of his brother's albums over the years.
He also turned Linda Ronstadt onto recording Tumbling Dice, but I can't tell if he's singing backup or not on that one.

Cool topic and some great responses. I read a discography list once that stated MICK has been on about 400 different records. Quite a list if I can find it.

That State of Shock video was cool, Michael Jackson killed both MICK and Freddy. He really was innovative and theatrical, where as the other 2 were just being their beautiful selves.  That was the thing about Michael, he was never comfortable just being himself, all the plastic surgery and drugs in the world couldn't do it for him. But he was way talented.

One of the greatest Stones songs that wasn't actually a Stones song. Jagger is great on this track, more a duet than backing vox. Hell, even Woody's vox sound great.

The story goes that Mick traded Woody this for "It's Only Rock n' Roll". We know who ended up with more royalties, but it's up for debate as to which is the greater song.

Mick's vocal on the Peter Wolf song Nothing But the Wheel is one of his best in recent years

What a gem of a song

Another one of Ronnie's great business decisions.

"OK...you leave your writing credit off a song on my album that'll sell about 50,000 copies and I'll do the same on yours which will sell about 4 million - plus the millions of extra sales when it gets issued as a single and appears on countless greatest hits sets".

Oh yes. And Keith was so kind (or stoned) in erasing all Ron's electric guitar tracks on "It's Only Rock n' Roll" but some how missing his extremely prominent acoustic 12-string, which adds a huge aspect to the songs flavor (oh, and Jagger's very gnarly electric rhythm guitar as well). Stupid Glimmer Twins and their mean-spirited egos... 'Inspiration by Ronnie Wood'...fuck off! And, though this was one of their many great studio Frankenstein tracks, they've never come close to reproducing it live. Jagger did it brilliantly with the Foo Fighters on SNL a couple years ago, just like the album arrangement. And Charlie said in '74, of Kenney Jones' drum track - that he couldn't improve on it in any way and it should be kept. Hmmm...just like Charlie played You Can't Always Get What You Want with the original New Orleans 2nd line beat in '68 (Rock n' Roll Circus), but then when Jimmy Miller played it a bit later for the Let It Bleed sessions, suddenly Charlie moves to a straight (and duller) R&B slow jam rhythm, and plays it that way to this day. Oh - and what happened to Woody's tone and approach from the Faces days that suddenly changed so dramatically during the Paris sessions for Some Girls et al?

Something has always told me that the Glimmer Twins are responsible for these and many other faux pas' in the Stones' career. And I believe Richards has the larger and more fragile ego than Jagger when it comes to purely musical decisions.

Rant over. (for now...)
