I find the songwriting process to be a fascinating and mysterious beast. In the case of “Tumbling Dice,” there was a major evolution. Originally titled “Good Time Women” it was first recorded during the Sticky Fingers sessions. It was later reworked into the Exile version by Mick and Keith in France. Listen to this original demo. The bare bones are there, but the song would have a long way to go before it would become a classic.

Stuff like this is awesome: earlier versions of songs I love. Great find!
