This was the debut release of the Rolling Stones, which was very much Brian Jones’ band at the time and in their early years. Their first gig with this band name was five days after the release of this single.
The session also included a cover of Bo Diddley’s “Pretty Thing” and (possibly) also the Clovers’ “Love Potion #9”. Those have not been released
List price: UK release, hence not found in my US catalogs. These have been sold in eBay for 15-30 euros.
