"Sister Morphine" - Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Marianne Faithfull (1969)


Wikipedia - "'Sister Morphine' is a song written by Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Marianne Faithfull. Faithfull released the original version of the song as the B-side to her Decca Records single 'Something Better' on 21 February 1969. ... In the U.K. Faithfull's single was withdrawn by Decca due to the drug reference in the title, after an estimated 500 copies had been issued, but in other countries the single remained in release. In some territories such as the Netherlands, Italy and Japan, 'Sister Morphine' appeared on the A-side. ...  After a legal battle Faithfull retained her rights as a co-author, acknowledged by the 1994 Virgin Records reissue of the Stones' album catalogue from Sticky Fingers through Steel Wheels. The personnel for the Faithfull version is Marianne on vocals, Jagger on acoustic guitar, Ry Cooder on slide guitar and bass guitar, Jack Nitzsche on piano and organ, and Charlie Watts on drums. The Stones' version features Jagger on vocals, Richards on acoustic guitar and backing vocals, Cooder and Nitzche again on slide guitar and piano respectively, Bill Wyman on bass, and Watts again on drums. ..."
