The Rolling Stones “December’s Children (And Everybody’s)” released in the US on this date, December 4th, in 1965. It’s a collection of previously released UK singles and album cuts, cover songs and a few new tracks; December’s Children went to #4 in the US in 1966. AllMusic describes the LP as “haphazard” in its assembly but definitely worth having for several of the included tracks, most especially the two hit singles “Get Off My Cloud” (#1 in the both the US and UK) and “As Tears Go By” (US-only release, #6; the Marianne Faithful version went to #9 in the UK in ‘64). Some of the cover songs are pretty great, too, including “Talkin’ About You,” originally by Chuck Berry, which first appeared on the Stones’ Out of Heads, “Look What You’ve Done” by Muddy Waters and a live version of “Route 66″ by Bobby Troup, which appeared on the UK live EP Got Live If You Want It! I also really love “I’m Free” (originally on Out of Our Heads) which The Soup Dragons made into a hit alt-psych raver in 1990.
