Description

Wyman's recording notes for Willie and the Poor Boys

Stapled group of 15 pages removed from an address book belonging to Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman, who annotates the front of each 3.75 x 6 page (and the backs of three) in blue ink. Dated November 5 to November 23, 1984, when Wyman was recording his 1985 album Willie and the Poor Boys with an all-star lineup of musicians, the pages are a meticulous accounting of who played what instrument on which tracks, when they were recorded, when a new engineer was used, and other detailed notes. Listed musicians include Charlie Watts as “CRW,” Kenney Jones, Andy Fairweather-Low, Mickey Gee, Chris Rea, and Geraint Watkins, with song titles including “Beautiful Delilah,” “(Santa Clause) -Sugar Bee,” “You Can Never Tell,” “Down In the Bottom,” “Saturday Night,” “All Night Long,” “Baby Please Don’t Go,” and more. In fine condition.

Provenance: Julien’s Auctions, Property from Bill Wyman and His Rolling Stones Archive, September 2020.
