THE ROLLING STONES Moonlight Mile (from the album Sticky Fingers, 1971) Moonlight Mile is a song from The Rolling Stones 1971 album Sticky Fingers. Credited to Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, Moonlight Mile is widely considered to be one of the Rolling Stones most underappreciated ballads. Recording took place in October 1970 at Stargroves. The song was the product of an all-night session between Jagger and guitarist Mick Taylor. Taylor had taken a short guitar piece recorded by Richards (entitled Japanese Thing) and reworked it for the session. Jagger performs the songs prominent acoustic guitar riff. Jagger felt it easier to extemporize with Taylor. Keith Richards was not at the recording session because he a bit out of it by the end of the Sticky Fingers recording session. Richard likes the song, though.
