We here on The Island are vehemently against buying a whole record for one fucking song. Buying tribute records is strictly for jerks. Here ya go. |

from wikipedia: "Time Is on My Side" is a song written by Jerry Ragovoy (under the pseudonym of Norman Meade). First recorded by jazz trombonist Kai Winding and his Orchestra in 1963, it was covered by both soul singer Irma Thomas and The Rolling Stones in 1964. Ragovoy originally wrote the song after Winding had expressed an interest in going in a more commercial and rhythmic direction, but had thought of no lyrics for the song other than "time is on my side". Produced by Creed Taylor and engineered by Phil Ramone, the song contained background vocals by The Enchanters (Cissy Houston, Dionne Warwick and Dee Dee Warwick) and was released on the Verve Records label in October 1963. In early 1964 Irma Thomas recorded a gospel-influenced cover of the song as the B-side for her single "Anyone Who Knows What Love Is (Will Understand)", released on Imperial Records. Songwriter Jimmy Norman was enlisted by the arranger H. B. Barnum to create some more lyrics for the song, and he managed to finish moments before Thomas entered the studio to record it. Produced by Allen Toussaint, Thomas' version of "Time Is on My Side" provided the inspiration for the title of her 1996 greatest hits release Time Is on My Side. The Rolling Stones recorded two versions of "Time Is on My Side" in 1964. The first with the organ intro was released in the U.S. in 1964 on single and on the 12 X 5 album. The superior rerecording with the guitar intro was released in the UK on January 15, 1965 on the The Rolling Stones No. 2 album. This is the version that appears on all the "best of" compilations. The U.S. version was released on September 26, 1964 as a single (a month after Thomas' cover) and peaked at number six on the U.S. Billboard Pop Singles Chart to become the Stones' first top ten hit in the U.S. (their previous single, "Tell Me", had peaked at number 24). When they performed "Time Is on My Side" during their first guest spot on The Ed Sullivan Show, Sullivan was shocked by their appearance and declared that they would never be invited onto the show again, but he subsequently invited them back several times. irma thomas: www.sendspace.com/file/y5ct77stones (organ version): www.sendspace.com/file/ck5u23 |
