Last month, it was announced that "Scarlet," a previously unheard Rolling Stones track featuring Jimmy Page on lead guitar, had been unearthed.
Now, the amazing sonic document has been released. You can check out its lyric video below.
The track - which also features Blind Faith's Rick Grech on bass - was recorded in 1974, and will be included in the upcoming multi-format, remastered reissue of Goats Head Soup.
“My recollection is we walked in at the end of a Zeppelin session," Richards said of the track in a statement. "They were just leaving, and we were booked in next and I believe that Jimmy decided to stay.
“We weren’t actually cutting it as a track - it was basically for a demo, a demonstration, just to get the feel of it but it came out well. With a line-up like that, you know, we better use it.”
“I remember first jamming this with Jimmy and Keith in Ronnie’s basement studio," added Mick Jagger. "It was a great session.”
To preorder the reissue - which will be available via Universal Music on September 4 - stop by The Rolling Stones' website.
