The Rolling Stones have released a minimalist “liner notes” music video to accompany their song “Scarlet”. The previously unreleased song was written in 1974 and featured legendary guitarist Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin and bassist Ric Grech from the band Blind Faith.
One of three unheard tracks featured on Goats Head Soup 2020, sitting alongside an all-new stereo mix of the original 1973 album, plus demos, outtakes, live performances & more.
Page stated that he had a really good time recording this song with some old friends.
