The Rolling Stones - Time Is On My Side • TopPop

Will time be on Englands Football squad’s side this weekend when they play the Euro 2020 final against Italy at Wembley this Sunday July 11? Time was definitely on the side of the Rolling Stones with their version of the song “Time Is on My Side“, written by Jerry Ragovoy (using the pseudonym “Norman Meade“). First recorded by jazz trombonist Kai Winding and his orchestra in 1963, it was covered (with additional lyrics by Jimmy Norman) by both soul singer Irma Thomas and the Rolling Stones in 1964. The Rolling Stones recorded two versions of the song in 1964. The first version (a looser arrangement featuring a briefer, organ-only intro), recorded in London in June 1964, was released as a single in the US, on September 25, 1964, and was included the following month on their US album 12 X 5. The second version (more tightly arranged and featuring guitar in the intro), recorded in Chicago on November 8, 1964, was released in the UK on January 15, 1965, on The Rolling Stones No. 2. The later recording is the version that receives airplay and appears on most “best of“ compilations. Both versions incorporate elements of Irma Thomas’s recording, including spoken-word interjections in the chorus, a monologue in the middle of the song, and distinctive lead guitar.
