"As Tears Go By".

And they covered the Stones almost every night in the mid '70s:  "Jumpin' Jack Flash".

And on the first proposed line-up of songs to be put on the In Concert album (a single album at that stage), Jumpin' Jack Flash was the album closer.

Brian Wilson sang on "We Love You". Wasn't that Rolling Stones related as well?

Yes We Love You was their summer of love single. Very good playing by Brian Jones on that one. He could make a note at a time instrument like the mellotron actually rock. Brian Wilson didn't actually cut this himself but sang background on a 1991 cover of it.

Here's a video for with "Satisfaction" : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJyMcSNfbus (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJyMcSNfbus)


There were also two videos of them doing "Jumpin Jack Flash" in '74/5 (great done by Mike) and a version from '88 I believe, but I can't find them anymore on youtube.


Brian once said that they were trying to sound like the Stones on "Marcella"

Brian also attended the Stone's session for My Obsession in the 60s. Brian constantly mentions that these days and I found confirmation in a 1966 Tiger Beat- they mention Brian as one of a number of famous faces visiting Stones sessions.   This is the reason that groups like the Stones later recorded in wild places like Jamaica. If you record in Hollywood or NY- tons of friends will show up to distract you.  Brian shared the stage with the Stones at TAMI Awards in Oct 1964 and the BBs played on the same bill with the Stones again in Birmingham, AL in May 1965

Lennon & McCartney sang on the Stones version of "We Got Love".


Brian also visited a Stones session for "Going Home" between December 3 and 8, 1965 @ RCA Studios in Hollywood.

And speaking of "Satisfaction" as a "Party!" out-take, a jokey quote of "Satisfaction"  ("Hey hey hey - that's what I  say!") starts off Mike's vocal on the "Party!" released version of "Alley Oop".

Brian also said in an interview that 'Let us go on this way' was a Rolling Stones inspired rocker. I'd like to see the Stones try and cover it!
