IT IS THE EVENING
OF THE DAY
I SIT AND WATCH
THE CHILDREN PLAY
December's Children (And Everybody's)
is the fifth
American
studio album by
the English rock band
released in
December 1965.
It is primarily compiled
from different
released tracks
from across
the band's recording career
up to that point,
including the
UK version of
Out of Our Heads.
Bassist
Bill Wyman
quotes Jagger in 1968
calling the record
"[not] an album,
it's just a collection of songs."
Accordingly,
it is only briefly detailed in
Wyman's otherwise
exhaustive book
Rolling with the Stones.
It features their
then-recent transatlantic
hit single
"Get Off of My Cloud",
as well as their own
remake of
Marianne Faithfull's
Jagger/Richards-penned hit
"As Tears Go By",
which was released as
the album's
second single
in the US.
Recording and Music
It is the last of the group's
early releases to feature
numerous cover songs;
writers
Mick Jagger and Keith Richards
wrote only half
of the songs themselves.
There had been
no sessions to
record the LP;
many of the songs
were from the
UK edition of
Out of Our Heads
recorded in September 1965
in Los Angeles.
Many of the tracks
had appeared earlier
in the UK versions
of
Rolling Stones albums
or had been released
on singles or EPs,
but had not been heard
in the American market;
other tracks were
unreleased tracks
that had been recorded
during other
recording sessions.
