The Rolling Stones // Memo From Turner
Your organs working perfectly, but there’s a part that’s not screwed on.
Memo From Turner was recorded by the Rolling Stones on November 17, 1968. The song was released in 1975 on the Metamorphosis album. The version on the Performance movie soundtrack was recorded earlier by Mick and has slightly different lyrics.

great song. i like that down and dirty list. I think it’d just about match my all-time favorite list of dirty Stones songs to hear at the Roadhouse Bar in Athens, though I’d have to throw Dancing With Mr. D in there.

Cecil-that’s funny that you mentioned Dancing with Mr. D. I had it on the list and removed it. It should be in the top 10, but I couldn’t overlook Exile On Main Street. Shake Your Hips isn’t bad either.

Ah… the Nighthawks. One of the best Blues bar bands on the East Coast in the 70’s and 80’s. Try Open All Night - their first live album (Amazon has it).
I’d put Sweet Virginia on the Stones list, but that’s more of a geographical preference than anything else.

Whoa, the servants they’re so helpful, dear. The cook she is a whore.
Yes, the butler has a place for her behind the pantry door.
The maid, shes French, shes got no sense shes wild for crazy horse.
And when she strips, the chauffeur flips the footman’s eyes get crossed
