You're always frustrated, you don't have the chance to do a song on the album, like the Beatles did with Ringo and George, or like Led Zeppelin, where everybody was given a chance to contribute. There never is a chance with the Stones. ↗

Credit buying is much like being drunk. The buzz happens immediately and gives you a lift... The hangover comes the day after. ↗
