Why would anyone want a shorter version of a great song?
I would, but not quite in the way you are thinking...
If anything, you'd want more, not less
Not me and others, not for this song....We had a long thread here several years back on this very thing for this song..... Many of us agreed that the song might had been better if it was split up into 2 songs instead, the first part being CYHMK as we know it, and the second part with MT and Bobby as a separate, instrumental second song! To me, that would had been better, since the 2 songs were so totally different, the first part a great hard rock song with Keith playing that great riff, as great a riff he had ever played... Then the second part being a new jazz song, as it was. The Stones can't claim to have any pure jazz songs, even this one, since it's half hard rock (and the jazz part, no matter how great it is, takes something away from the hard rock part). But if the second part had been a stand alone song, they would be able to claim having a true and excellent jazz song, while CYHMK, which was suppose to be a hard rock songs as the first part of it is, would have remained intact and one more great hard rock song from them! I don't care too much for jazz usually, but I loved it when the Stones did it on there. So we would have had 2 great songs that were totally different from each other instead of one great song that was totally different from one part to another. I learned in that old thread that I wasn't alone in this thinking, that other fans felt the same way and would have preferred 2 songs. That's what they should be doing on the new release in the bonus part of the LP, release the short version of CYHMK, and MT and Bobby's great second part as a stand alone, new song.
