This is what I wrote...

TO KNOW HIM IS TO LOVE HIM - Cleo
(Spector)
[rec. 02/01/64 - Regent Sound Studios, London]
With Andrew Oldham increasingly seeing himself as England’s answer to Phil Spector, he booked the group including Stu for at least one session of non-Stones recordings, resulting in a couple of interesting Stones-related singles. Cleo Sylvestre, later a highly respected actress, was a black teenage friend and fan of the band, so for her debut single Andrew went for The Teddy Bears’ classic 1958 song ‘To Know Him Is To Love Him’ - a group that had featured Phil Spector. Trouble is, she was a far better actress than a singer, and despite Andrew and the band’s best attempts, the record makes painful listening today.

In general, the Stones chew people up and spit them out.   They are beautiful, brilliant and destructive.  They are the Midnight Rambler; Gimme Shelter and Sympathy for the Devil.
