(Single) Not Fade Away / I Wanna Be Your Man

*This is part of my ongoing, personal project of listening to every Rolling Stones material released, posted onto this blog for everyone to read and for opinions to flourish. The rating doesn't mean much, because I hate ratings, but might as well.*

(Single) Not Fade Away / I Wanna Be Your Man

Not Fade Away

3.5/5

I Wanna Be Your Man

1.5/5

5/10

The US version of the previous single, probably to capitalize on The Beatles’ popularity. The I Wanna Be Your Man cover is on the B-side, where it belongs.

(Single) I Wanna Be Your Man / Stoned

I Wanna Be Your Man

(Lennon-McCartney)
A song written by those fab four! There’s no way we can lose! The guitar solo saves this one from utter destruction. Not a song Jagger should be singing.
1.5/5

Stoned

(Nanker Phelge)
This doesn’t really bring much to the table. The piano is very simplistic for a blues song, especially for a semi-instrumental blues song. There’s also not much going for Richard’s guitar solo. Bass and drums are simple, and all I can say about Jagger is that his part goes well with the sound of “Stoned”.
2.5/5

A total of 4/10. Ouch. Not too good for me.
