PRODUCED BY MICK JAGGER W/STONES COVER VERSIONS
Here's a nice NEAR MINT UK first pressing of THE ART OF CHRIS FARLOWE on Immediate. This great album was produced by Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones, and has liner notes by Stones manager/Immediate owner Andrew Loog Oldham. Farlowe, one of the great UK soul singers covers the Stones PAINT IT BLACK, I'M FREE and RIDE ON BABY as well as other great 60's songs.
The Art of Chris Farlowe is the third 1966 album by British singer Chris Farlowe, featuring his band, "The Thunderbirds", but only credited to him.
Andrew Loog Oldham produced the recordings session with Mick Jagger, who also wrote four songs for Farlowe, later covered by The Rolling Stones.
Mick Jagger also provides some backing vocals.
Original 1966 UK 1st pressing with flip back sleeve. The cover is in excellent condition and the record is in NEAR MINT condition.
Chris Farlowe began his career with the John Henry Skiffle Group in 1957, began to find his voice as a blue-eyed soul singer with the Johnny Burns Rhythm & Blues Quartet, joined the Thunderbirds for five singles on the Columbia label, released a wonderful version of "Stormy Monday Blues" under the pseudonym of Little Joe Cook, and finally signed with Andrew Loog Oldham's Immediate Records imprint. Oldham, then the manager of the Rolling Stones, understood how to expand an opportunity when he could, and his label released five singles with Farlowe bringing his dramatic and soulful singing to bear on various Rolling Stones songs, "Paint It, Black," "Think," "Ride on Baby," "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction," and "Out of Time," which topped the U.K. singles chart in 1966. Farlowe also released ten other non-Stones related singles, most notably a version of Mike D'Abo's "Handbags and Gladrags," and it is from this Immediate Records period that this set is drawn. Farlowe was a fine singer, and if he didn't grow to be an international star, he certainly deserved it.
Tracks:
what became of the broken hearted
we're doing fine
life is but nothing
paint it black
cuttin' in
open the door to your heart
out of time
north south east west
you're so good for me
it was easier to hurt her
i'm free
i've been loving you too long
reach out i'll be there
ride on baby
