stray cat blues

the rolling stones - stray cat blues - stereo edit III - trying to recreate the vinyl record sound Edit 3 for headphones. This is an edit from an nine track multitrack file. Bass is real different, this version has no fade out. I think this is the best song from the album. On vinyl it sounds way better, hence this edit. Recorded April 3, 1968. Released on "Beggars Banquet" in 1968. Slide guitar: Brian Jones. Electric keyboards: Brian Jones. Vocals: Mick Jagger. Electric guitars: Keith Richards. Bass: Bill Wyman. Drums: Charlie Watts.
