"High Roller" 50 years ago, a very particular song in Rolling Stones history
Mar 10^th, 2025 at 12:44pm

50 years ago, Leslie West (Mountain) releases his second solo album “The Great Fatsby” with a song “High Roller” composed by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, Leslie West, and Corky Laing (Mountain too) with lyrics by Sandra Palmer. This is the only song Mick Jagger and Keith Richards have composed with other musicians that appears in a non-stones album only. Composed, arranged, and recorded in NYC 1975 (Electric Ladyland Studios)

Of course, there are songs with others like Nanker Phelge (the entire band in the early days), Andrew Loog Oldham (As tears go by), Marianne Faithfull (sister morphine), some others with Mick Taylor, Ronnie Wood, Billy Preston, Chuck Leavell, Steve Jordan, and recently Andrew Watt (between some others), but this was recorded for others and composed with others, Mick also play guitar here

“High Roller” (Jagger, Richards, West, Laing, Palmer 1975) historically a very particular song,

Enjoy
