    Thank you for this! The isolated Keith lead guitar track gives new meaning to the over-used term, “awesome.”

      Those have been taken down. But that’s the post that started this whole thing (see About).

      Update: they’re up now.

    So so awesome. Elegant, simple and bluesy. And what fantastic guitar sound Keith found.

    the vocals were haunting. This is one of my fav songs, rock n’ roll with some delicious diva vocals.

    Awesome. Real rock and roll. So interesting to listen to the isolated tracks and then listen to the full version. Hearing it in a whole new way.

    Interesting how tracks were divided up. I’m hearing bleed through from drums and piano on the second guitar track, then piano in foreground, then out. The engineer had to put together this puzzle based on limited track space. These guys had to work harder than most do today with the availability of so many tracks. Reminds me of split Beatles tracks that came out awhile back. Cool stuff

    Lead vocal split is sooo cool! never heard Keith’s part in there before. He’s got roughly the 5th of the chord (most of his vocals were beautifully rough) Love it when Merry Clayton’s voice breaks and you can hear Mick and keith go “woo!” like being right there!!
