Well I want somebody to tell me/ Tell me what’s wrong with me…
Written by: Buster Brown/Clarence L. Lewis/Bobby Robinson
Recorded: ‘Saturday Club’, BBC Ligt (UK radio), Aug. 20 1965
From Martin Elliott’s book THE ROLLING STONES COMPLETE RECORDING SESSIONS 1962-2012
Bill Wyman attempted to get this recording released in 1975 under the Black Box title. Fannie Mae touched on old ground, a straight Buster Brown R’n’B rocker featuring harmonica in a Sonny Terry mould. This Stones interpretation was a notable copy and had not been used greatly in the set list. It was Mick Jagger and Bill’s choice. to include it in the radio setIt was a chance to try something out different, even if Mick had to repeat a verse or two since he could not remember the lyrics. This was the last of the BBC sessions.
