MistadobalinaZur Info: „Play with fire“ wurde nicht von Phil Spector komponiert sondern von Nanker/Phelge, einem Pseudonym der Rolling Stones.
Ich habe bezüglich der Zusammenarbeit von den Stones und Spector nochmals nachgelesen. Demnach hatte ich auch Unrecht, dass es das bisher einzige Stück ist, wo Spector mitwirkt. Sein Einfluss auf den Song ist bei „Play with fire“ aber wahrscheinlich am Größten:
The legendary producer, as infamous for his personality quirks as for his classic „Wall of Sound“ recordings with girl groups like the Crystals and the Ronettes in the early 1960s, as well as artists such as the Righteous Brothers and Ike & Tina Turner, never produced the Stones as such but appeared at some of their sessions in their early years. Spector was an idol of Andrew Oldham’s, and when a Stones-Ronettes tour was organized in January 1964, Oldham took the opportunity to invite Spector to some of the Stones‘ sessions for their first album. This resulted in Spector performing percussion on Not Fade Away, Now I’ve Got a Witness and Little By Little. In late 1964/early ’65, the Stones met up again with Spector when they were recording in L.A. This resulted in Spector appearing at some sessions too, and contributing on songs like Play with Fire.
