“When there’s a lot of screaming I know that most people can’t hear us playing, but what can you do.”
> Mick Jagger
This 1966 live album certainly proves Jagger right in that regard, with the sound of screaming girls negating much of any musical worth on this album. There was one song not previously released > the Rolling Stones version of Fortune Teller, a clever love ditty first released in the early 1960s.
Fortune Teller
Went to the fortune teller
Had my fortune read
I didn’t know what to tell her
I had a dizzy feeling in my head
Then she took a look at my palm
She said, “Sonny, you feel kinda warm”
And she looked into her crystal ball
And said, “You’re in love”
[ and there’s a happy ending >>
I hurried back down to that woman
As mad as I could be
I told her I didn’t see nobody
Why’d she make a fool out of me
Now I’m a happy fellow
Well, I’m married to the fortune teller
We’re happy as we could be
And I get my fortune told for free
