Not an edit. This one is unique. It is from a Japanese release.* Though this is just the regular mono version, it still is UNIQUE, for no other album has this mono sound. The Japanese sure know how to deal with sound quality!
* The album is "Big Hits (High Tide And Green Grass)", released April 25, 1989 - catalogue number P25L 25039. The same master was used for two other Japan only releases of the album: the May 1 1987 P33L 25016 and the February 25 1995 POCD-1919. The three albums all have the UK tracklist and the nine "stereo transcription" songs. **
Recorded January 11 & 12, 1965. Released as a US single on March 13, 1965. Also released on "Out Of Our Heads" in 1965.
Lead electric guitar: Brian Jones. Lead vocals: Mick Jagger. Rhythm guitar (& solo): Keith Richards. Bass: Bill Wyman. Drums: Charlie Watts. Backing vocals: Keith Richards & Bill Wyman.
** This is the first compilation album by the Rolling Stones. With different cover art and track listings, it was released on 28 March 1966, on London Records in the US and on 4 November 1966, by Decca Records in the UK.
The American edition focused on songs from 1964 and 1965 with two new tunes: the recent "19th Nervous Breakdown" and the re-recorded "Time Is on My Side" with the guitar intro. The British version covered a longer period, from the group's first single A-side in 1963, "Come On", to several songs from 1966, including the recent hit "Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow?".
The album reached number three on the US Billboard 200[1] and number four on the UK Albums Chart.[2] It remained on the chart 99 weeks in the US, where the RIAA certified the album double platinum, signifying over two million copies sold.
THE LAST TIME
(Jagger/Richards)
well I told you once and I told you twice,
but ya never listen to my advice, yYou don't try very hard to please me ,
with what you know it should be easy.
well this could be the last time,
this could be the last time,
maybe the last time,
I don't know. Oh no. Oh no.
well, I'm sorry girl but I can't stay,
feelin' like I do today,
there's too much pain and too much sorrow,
cause I'll feel the same tomorrow.
well this could be the last time,
this could be the last time,
maybe the last time,
I don't know. Oh no. Oh no.
well this could be the last time,
this could be the last time,
maybe the last time,
I don't know. Oh no. Oh no.
well I told you once and I told you twice,
a'someone have to pay the price,
a'here's a chance to change your mind,
'caus I'll be gone a long, long time.
well this could be the last time,
this could be the last time,
maybe the last time,
I don't know. Oh no. Oh no
last time baby
I see you no more, well a'not no more,
well a'not no more, well a'not no more,
no, no no more, no no no more...
