The song It's Only Rock & Roll (but I like it) was that not a Ronnie Wood song originally that Ronnie played to the Glimmer twins in Ronnie's house?.

Well spotted E-Z...yes...Ron had a cracking studio at the Wick...kitted out...64 track i think.
Ron and Ian McClagan had been working on It's Only Rock'n'Roll..Keith chimed in..he loved the riff. Then Mick got a whisper...and it's all musical ******' chairs- Ron gets I Can Feel The Fire...and Rock 'n' Roll heads off to Munich -where presumably Keith does 6 squillion overdubs..buries Bowie's bits..and charlie sounds like he's tapping coffee cups from Maccy D's.
The most awful mixdown ever..the alternative mix by Harwood and Musicland Studios is a lot crisper.
Seems no one questioned Mr Unhealth at that time...especially after giving Managers & Producers the old heave **!

I managed to obtain a cd copy of JAMMING WITH EDWARD https://ring.cdandlp.com/longplay/photo_grande/114761929.jpg I did have it on cd once before around 10 years ago and features Mick, Bill & Charlie along with Ry Cooder on electric guitar & bottleneck slide guitar & Nicky Hopkins on piano and was recorded in London in late 1969. The recording was originally released on the Rolling Stones own record label back in around 1972 and as Mick says in the original limited sleeve note that they were selling it for around £2 ($2) as it isn't worth much more than that plus it was just a late night jam session that was promptly forgotten about.

very true E-Z..and Keith slammed it at the time...he'd had words over certain songs with Ry.
The album was kicking around the 50p bins for ages...this album was more credible though.
