The Rolling Stones Song of the Day is- Something Happened To Me Yesterday. The song was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and is the final song on their great and underrated “Between The Buttons ” album. The song is most likely about experiencing an LSD trip. Both Mick and Keith sing on this song- Mick the verses with Keith singing the chorus for the first time ever. Brian Jones adds a saxophone and tuba, Jack Nitzsche is on piano- these two are the behind the scenes stars of the entire album.
amazing that Brian Jones played the tuba on this!!! He’s really good…not an easy instrument! Surely he didn’t play all the brass instruments coming in after 2:00?
The Mike Leander Orchestra!
I heard this the other night when I listened to the CD and wondered what they were singing about! LSD makes sense in the atmosphere of it. Scary thought them tripping, messing with those wonderful musician brains.
I had WKRP on last night- and Johnny Fever’s daughter showed up with her boyfriend-they saw a picture of Johnny and Mick together- the boyfriend said he played guitar- and asked Johnny if he’d call Mick- “Keith Richards can’t last forever” the kid said–well- that was 40 years ago…
omg and wasn’t WKRP on about 40 years ago??
