But I could be wrong...damn it's hard to believe that 1975 is 34 years ago! Fuck! It seems like yesterday I was in junior high at the time.
LOL fuck please don't remind me Mr "Grampland"... but yeah you could be right I'm not so sure... seems Jagger used to do mostly chords and repeat notes back then, and after Preston actually got soulful and did countrified stuff, especially Goats Head Soup and after... you could be right, but I mean when he had Ian Stuart he didn't need to play, whereas with Preston there was some tour stuff, and strict studio sessions...

But here Jagger does the keys on Faraway Eyes for sure and I think on Fool To Cry they share the organ... very nicely:
