t was some sort of bootleg I pick up in discount bin and it wa fascinating because the production was crap compared to the real albums
It was a bunch of outtakes and unreleased tracks former manager Allan Klein owned the rights to.

Keith called being under contract to Klein "$25,000,000 worth of experience"

I just read up on it as it been a while.

Released in 1975, Metamorphosis centres on outtakes and alternate versions of well-known songs recorded from 1964 to 1970.


It was outakes, demos . They had some good songs but they needed to be worked on. This is a classic Stones song here..

I first saw them live in BR in 1975 for the first show of their tour. Ron Wood had just joined after leaving The Faces.
It was a blast. They strolled out as Copeland’s “Fanfare for the Common Man played. They kicked off with Honky Tonk Woman. Great show and a thrill. Hendrix live in Shreveport remains my biggest thrill, though…

Was this the Starfricker tour with the inflatable penis??If so, it was also my first "road trip" concert as I hopped in a full car with no ticket and had the time of my life. It was to see the Stones in 1975 in BR. We sang sympathy's woo woo the whole time driving up

Metamorphosis - I have that album too. Picked it up in a bin at Shopper's Fair after hearing I Don't Know Why on a jukebox in a college bar. Beautiful guitar work on that song.

The Mellotron, a precursor of the synthesizer, which Brian played on "Jigsaw Puzzle"



ETA: "I'm really into electronic music right now. If there's no way to put it on our album, I'd like to do something on my own." - Brian Jones, 1968

I had no idea that was a mellotron being played on that one. Thanks for sharing.

Song co-written by Brian

quote:

An extract of a home recording of a song Brian wrote with Ready Steady Go presenter Michael Aldred. Possibly recorded at 7 Elm Park Lane, London circa 1965 - 1966.

line up: Brian Jones - vocals & 12 string acoustic guitar

The short extract of the recording is taken from the documentary film 'The Stones & Brian Jones'. There was debate as to whether the recording features Brian or Michael singing. Luckily, I was able to hear more of the recording and from this I was able to confirm it is Brian singing and playing a 12 string acoustic guitar.

Additionally, a friend recently met Bill Wyman at an event and personally asked him about who was singing on the recording. Surprised that there was debate, a startled Bill responded, "Of course it was Brian singing, he was trying to write a song."

The melody and chords would later be utilised as a main theme for Brian's 'Mord Und Totschlag' aka 'A Degree of Murder' film soundtrack, which was recorded in February 1967
As Gene Clark credited Brian w/co-writing the music for "8 Miles High", it's clear Brian had the potential to be a successful songwriter, at leastt as far as music is concerned. He could have teamed up w/a lyricist, as Brian Wilson, Elton John, Carole King, & Neil Sedaka all did.

The resemblance is uncanny.
