Also knownas: Biscuit Blues; Broken Head Blues
Written by: Jimmy Reed
Recorded: EMI Pathé-Marconi Studios, Boulogne-Billancourt, France, Jan. 5-March 2 1978

From Martin Elliott’s book THE ROLLING STONES COMPLETE RECORDING SESSIONS 1962-2012:
A Jimmy Reed song mistakenly given given the name Biscuit Blues and Broken Head Blues by bootleggers over the years. It’s played guitar boogie style with shrill harmonica. A lead guitar weaves for te song’s duration in Eric Clapton style. Tere are two versions:a vocal version and a shortened instrumental. The track has similarities to what was attempted on Black Limousine as outtakes of Black Limousine song demonstrate. Ron Wood was very keen on the boogie and rhythm style influences of Jimmy Reed.
