In 1964, the great New Orleans R&B singer Irma Thomas released her version of “Time Is On My Side,” a song that Danish-American jazz trombonist Kal Winding and his orchestra first released a year earlier. (The singers on that first recording were Dee Dee and Dionne Warwick and their cousin Cissy Houston, Whitney’s mother.) Over in London, the Rolling Stones heard an imported record of Thomas’ “Time Is On My Side,” and they immediately recorded their own cover, with Mick Jagger doing his best imitation of Thomas’ vocals. The Stones’ cover was a top-10 hit in the US, and the versions from both Thomas and the Stones are now considered classics.
