Im checking my very old magazines, yesterday was 1970 and the magazine was Rolling Stone. I found and article about the sessions for Dr. Johns The Sun, Moon & Herbs, so I used the image for todays header and today I listened to my original LP twice, what a great album, its almost impossible to identify Mick on vocals as the ladies rule.But guess what? I listened the album with headphones and yes, you can hear Mick in several songs, not just in Where ya at mule. Location was Trident Studios in London and Criteria Studios in Miami.
So I decided to scan the article, part of the album and take pictures of the gatefold cover to share them with you
The image (todays header) its, as far as I know the only one in circulation of those sessions
