Alternate version of Brown Sugar by The Rolling Stones, recorded in the Sticky Fingers sessions. The Stones have been unleashing alternate versions of tracks off their classic 1971 LP Sticky Fingers before the album’s deluxe remastered reissue . This time, the Stones have shared a looser take on the opening track “Brown Sugar” that features the band rocking out with Eric Clapton. This oft-bootlegged rendition, recorded during Keith Richards and Bobby Keys’ birthday party in December 1970, is cleaned up for the reissue, allowing Clapton’s excellent slide guitar work to shine.

The playful, freewheeling take also features Al Kooper on piano in place of Ian Stewart, whose work appears on the Sticky Fingers version.
