Just listened to the Metamorphosis CD I recently borrowed at the local library, man, what a mixed bag, but that brought back many memories of that old LP I had borrowed...er...25 years ago at another library and promptly taped.
Metamorphosis has a gem, Stevie Wonder's "I don't know why", the guitars, all Keith I would assume since Brian was reportedly drowning as they were recording it, are stellar and sound quite a bit like those on Gimme Shelter, that I would assume it predates...if that's the case, it's hard not to see that song as an "inspiration" for GS...naughty Keith. Still he was at the top of his game at the time.
According to Martin Elliott's "Unreleased Recordings" v1 bible, there are 7/8 minute versions, wonder if he's not confusing it with the "I don't know the reason why" jam with Mick Taylor though...especially since he doesn't mention them again in the second version of his book.
