Long-lost Lennon/Jagger recording goes for auction
A long lost musical collaboration between Mick Jagger and John Lennon has been unearthed more than a quarter of a century after it was recorded.
The track, a cover of the blues song Too Many Cooks, was recorded in 1974 with Jagger on vocals and Lennon on guitar, but it was never released.
And the discovery could leave a record dealer singing all the way to the bank when an acetate record of the song goes under the hammer next month.
Tom Fisher, 34, who runs Rat Records in Camberwell, south London, bought the unlabelled acetate - a record made directly from a master tape - for just £20 four years ago.
He bought it off a man in west London claiming to be a friend of Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood.
