Mitch Ryder Live Talkies
CD, 1987

"Live" in den Teldec-Studios, Hamburg aufgenommen, daher keine echte Live-Aufnahme mit Publikum ("Instead of having recorded our longawaited live-album in front of an exited audience we choose a dark studio, using the latest developments in recording technique. It's up to you now, dear friend, to have fun in front of your speakers. And you con still applaude...")

Track # 1 im Original von The Valentinos (Wikipedia: It’s All Over Now ist ein Klassiker der Rock-Musik. Er wurde im Jahr 1964 von den Songschreibern Bobby & Shirley Womack komponiert und von der Band der Womack-Brüder The Valentinos für das SAR-Label Sam Cookes erstmals eingespielt. Die Nummer war ein Achtungserfolg in den USA und wäre vielleicht schnell vergessen gewesen, wenn sie nicht die R&B-Liebhaber Keith Richards und Mick Jagger im fernen London in die Finger bekommen hätten. Sie beschlossen, dieses Lied zusammen mit etlichen anderen Kompositionen US-amerikanischer Musiker ins Repertoire ihrer noch wenig bekannten Band The Rolling Stones aufzunehmen. Das Lied verschaffte den Rolling Stones den endgültigen Durchbruch beim europäischen Publikum und wurde ihr erster Nummer-1-Hit in England (Platz 26 in den Vereinigten Staaten).
