The Rolling Stones : Made In The Shade (Expanded Editiuon)

I'M NO SCHOOL BOY

BUT I KNOW WHAT I LIKE 

The Rolling Stones : Metamorphosis (Full UK Version)

IF YOU TRY 

ACTING SAD

YOU'LL ONLY 

MAKE ME GLAD

 Metamorphosis

is the third

compilation album of

 The Rolling Stones

music released by 

former manager 

Allen Klein's 

ABKCO Records 

who gained control

 of the band's 

Decca/London material

 in 1970 

after the band's 

departure from 

Decca and Klein. 

Released in 1975, 

Metamorphosis

centres on outtakes

 and alternate versions 

of well-known songs 

recorded from 

1964 to 1970.

History

After the release of

Hot Rocks 1964–1971

in 1971, 

an album titled

Necrophilia

was compiled with

 the aid of 

Andrew Loog Oldham

for release as a 

follow-up compilation, 

featuring many 

previously unreleased

 (or, more accurately, discarded) 

outtakes from

 the Rolling Stones' 

Decca/London period.

 While that project failed

 to materialise with 

More Hot Rocks (Big Hits & Fazed Cookies)

being released

 in its place

most of the

 unreleased songs 

were held over 

for a future project.

In February 1974,

 to give it an 

air of authority, 

Bill Wyman

involved himself

 in compiling an album

 he entitled

Black Box. 

However, 

Allen Klein 

wanted more

Mick Jagger/Keith Richards songs

 in the project

 for monetary reasons, 

and Wyman's version

 remained unreleased.

Metamorphosis

was issued

 in its place.

Wyman's original picks 

for the record 

were as follows:

• "Bright Lights Big City"
• "Cops and Robbers"
• "I'd Much Rather Be With the Boys"
• "Little Red Rooster" (Live)
• "Down the Road Apiece" (Live)
• "Don't Lie to Me"
• "If You Let Me"
• "Godzi"
• "Panama Powder Room"
• "Gold Painted Nails"
• "Fannie Mae"
• "Down in the Bottom"

"Godzi"

 and

 "Panama Powder Room" 

were instrumentals 

from the

Between the Buttons sessions 

and have never been released. 

They were recorded at 

RCA Studios, Hollywood in August 1966.

Most tracks that appear 

on side one 

of the vinyl album

 are demos,

 written by 

Jagger and Richards

 for other artists

 to perform. 

Some were recorded with

 session musicians

 like 

Big Jim Sullivan

on guitar, 

Clem Cattini

on drums, 

and 

Jimmy Page 

on guitar, 

and were not intended

 for release by

 the Rolling Stones.

 Indeed, 

on most of these tracks

 the only 

Rolling Stone

 who appears is Jagger. 

"Out of Time"

 and

 "Heart of Stone" 

were well-known 

Stones songs 

that appear here

 in drastically

 different renditions, 

with session players

 providing the backing. 

Side two

 includes unreleased 

band recordings 

up until

 the Sticky Fingers sessions

 of 1970.

With some speculation that

 "I'd Much Rather Be With the Boys"

 had a

 homosexual subtext,

 the Toggery Five version 

changed the lyric to 

"I'd rather be out with the boys." 

An alternate version of 

"Memo from Turner" 

includes 

Brian Jones on guitar 

and has a

 looser vibe 

than the

 Mick Jagger solo single 

from the soundtrack album 

of the 1970 film

Performance.

Released in 

May 1975, 

Metamorphosis 

came out the same day

 as the band's

 authorised hits collection 

Made in the Shade 

and was also seen 

to be cashing in on

 the Rolling Stones' 

summer Tour 

of the Americas. 

While the critical reception

 was lukewarm, 

Metamorphosis

still managed to

 reach No. 8

 in the US, 

though it only made

 No. 45 

in the UK. 

Two singles, 

"Out of Time"

 featuring Jagger 

singing over the

 same backing track 

(with strings)

 used for 

Chris Farlowe's

 1966 version

 and a cover of 

Stevie Wonder's

 "I Don't Know Why" 

briefly made the singles charts.

Upon its initial release, 

Metamorphosis 

was released with

 16 songs in the UK, 

while the American edition

 had only 14

  omitting 

"Some Things Just Stick in Your Mind" 

and 

"We're Wastin' Time".

The album's cover art

 plays off the title 

with a 

human/insect 

motif alluding to

Franz Kafka's 

The Metamorphosis,

 and includes images of 

both 

Brian Jones

 and his replacement 

Mick Taylor.

Keith Richards : Talk Is Cheap

 Keith Richards

 (born December, 18th 1943)

is an English musician, 

songwriter, 

singer and record producer

 who is an 

original member, 

guitarist, 

secondary vocalist, 

and

 co-principal songwriter 

of 

The Rolling Stones. 

His songwriting partnership 

with the band's 

lead vocalist

 Mick Jagger 

is one of the most 

successful in history. 

His career spans 

over six decades, 

and his

 guitar playing style

 has been a 

trademark of 

the Rolling Stones

 throughout

 the band's career. 

Richards gained 

press notoriety 

for his 

romantic involvements 

and illicit drug use, 

and he was often

 portrayed as a 

countercultural figure.

 First professionally known

 as 

Keith Richard,

 in 1978 

he fully asserted 

his family name.
