Title: Stones songs that have a 2nd version with the other Glimmer on vocal
Post by ronnie-woody on Jul 30th, 2024 at 9:42am
What are songs that were originally sung by Mick/Keith on record but there also exists an alternative version with the other one of them singing it?

Just came across this:

Then there is of course Keith's demo version of Almost Hear You Sigh before he gave it to Mick for Steel Wheels and still has other lyrics too:

Does Keith's version of Gimme Shelter count as well cause he did it with the Winos? ;D

Also Love is Strong with Keith on vocals! (Tbh I REALLY like that version! Keith's rougher voice gives it a whole other touch)

Mick singing You Got The Silver is a good one.

If I@m not mis-tokin', there is a (boot) version on which KR sings the bulk of Gimme Shelter with MJ on 'backing vocals'/adding flavour.

I need this!! Love when Mick and Keith are singing together <3

Also that version of Connection is interesting, it almost sounds kinda Reggea-influenced^^

Is it this one? It says Keith on vocals, but in the beginning it's Mick on lead and then Keith comes on a bit more and in the end after the instrumental part they're both singing it, I like it! :D

Re. the Gimme Shelter mentions above... The version I have sounds very similar to the version mentioned by Goo above. It's on an olde CD  with 'The Creme Of The Hot Stuff', 'Unobtainable Golden Stones' and 'Collector's Gold' with a dandy selection on much of it, including stuff like the acecate-version of 'Jiving Sistah Fanny', which I presume was sidelined because Taylor & Hopkins were too good/smooth that day or it was slighly too Sasha Baron Cohen opr parody Muddy Waters in it's negrescence, but great lines like "she's got the shower-curtain, she's gotr the red-foot...'' etc. There's, on the CD cover, the comic/saucy 1976 S&M photo.. But 'ronnie-wood' above has it arse-backwards, surely, as it sounds like Keith singing most of it and , maybe as his backing-vocal recording done originally or a guide for Jogger or whatevs. Anyway, it is Keith firstly and mainly.  He did wrfite the song/words, supposedly, anyway; while MJ was displaying  his winkie theatrically in the presence of Nicholas and Pally. Sorry to rattle on so much. But a key moment in keys/key-changes, innit?

Is there a version of sweethearts together with Keith singing most of it?

It's hard to believe there weren't two takes oifmost ditties and hopefully in the vaults somewhere, Whether KR did a (vocal) version of 'Anyway You Look At It' is an interesting question, if that's what you're pondering. If they didn't do all the vocals together for 'Sweetie', or together even, or there's a longer take, it would be well interesting to hear KR doing more of his skatting/word stretching/dee-da-dee-dee etc. stuff.
