: : No. Nanker Phelge is a band credit that all five members shared in equally. It didn't last long.
: I have read somewhere, that Nanker Phelge was the nom de plume for Jagger/Richards compositions shared equally by all five of the Stones, which I think means, that Jagger and Richards wrote them, but all five became credited.
They all got credit because the entire band wrote the songs together in the studio. When you consiter how cheap Mick & Keith got towards the others later on and would not even let them put their names on their own works, then what makes you think they would have let them have a share of Jagger/Richards songs that the rest had no part in making?
