the rolling stones - on with the show (instrumental) - stereo remix

Edit for headphones, March 2022. This is my stereo remix of studio take 11 of "On With The Show" (studio working title "Surprise Me") from the bootleg box set "Outtakes & Rarities Volume 3.1 Remastered By Teague Raw". Most likely Brian Jones on Mellotron, Nicky Hopkins on piano, Charlie Watts on drums, Bill Wyman on bass, Keith Richards on guitar.
A Mellotron uses analogue samples, recorded on audio tape. There's a slight delay when a key is hit before it produces sound, that's why it is a difficult instrument to play.

Many thanks to Mannymuc for some lovely tinted photos (that I found on Pinterest) at 0:25 and 0:38 and 0:47.

If you want to try and sing along (and find out that Mick Jagger did a real great job here), then here are the lyrics:

ON WITH THE SHOW
(Jagger/Richards)

good evening one and all we're all so glad to see you here
we'll play your favorite songs while you all soak up the atmosphere
we'll start with old "Wood River", then maybe "Stormy Weather" too
I'm sure you know just what to do
on with the show good health to you

please pour another glass it's time to watch the cabaret
your wife will never know that you're not really working late
your hostess here is Wendy, you'll find her very friendly too
and we don't care just what you do
on with the show good health to you

Bettina starts the show at two o'clock

oh if by chance you find that you can't make it anymore
we'll put you in a cab and get you safely to the door
oh we've got all the answers and we've got lovely dancer, too
there's nothing else you have to do
on with the show good health to you

you're all such lovely people dancing gaily round the floor
but if you have to fight please take your trouble out the door
for now I say with sorrow until this time tomorrow
we'll bid you all a fond adieu
on with the show good health to you
