| "'''Memo from Turner'''" is a solo record by [[Mick Jagger]], featuring a guitar solo by [[Ry Cooder]], from the soundtrack of ''[[Performance (film)|Performance]]'', where Jagger played a major part. It was re-released in October 2007 on a seventeen-song retrospective compilation album ''[[The Very Best of Mick Jagger]]'', making a re-appearance as a Jagger solo effort. After its original release in 1970, it had been included on Rolling Stones compilations, such as ''[[Singles Collection: The London Years]]'' as a track credited to [[Jagger/Richards]] songwriters.

| == Versions ==
| |
| Two different versions of "Memo from Turner" have been released. The first released version of the song, typified by its slide guitar, was the one recorded for [[Performance (soundtrack)|the soundtrack]] to the movie ''[[Performance (film)|Performance]]'', starring [[Mick Jagger]] as the song title's "Turner". It is featured prominently in the movie, with Mick Jagger, as Turner, lip-synching it. This is the more well-known version of the song, as it was released as a solo single by Jagger in England in 1970 and is featured on the later ''Singles Collection: The London Years''. [[Ry Cooder]] plays the slide guitar part on this version, which was probably recorded in late 1968, near the time the film was being shot. The identity of the other musicians is not known, though they were likely session players chosen by soundtrack producer [[Jack Nitzsche]].
| |
| | |
| The second version, released on ''[[Metamorphosis (Rolling Stones album)|Metamorphosis]]'' in 1975 on the [[Allen Klein]] Decca/London pre-existing legacy contracts of the Stones 1960s recordings, was a different version recorded in November 1968, and has a looser feel than the released version. This version features [[Al Kooper]] on guitar, and perhaps [[Brian Jones]] and [[Stevie Winwood]] of [[Traffic (band)|Traffic]] as well. Either [[Charlie Watts]] or [[Jim Capaldi]] (also of Traffic) plays drums on this recording. Credited to "Jagger/Richards", it is not clear how many of the Rolling Stones besides Jagger played on it.
| |
| | |
| Besides the differing lineup between the two versions, there are also slight changes to the lyrics. The track was reviewed as Jagger:
| |
| <blockquote>
| |
| ...puts on his best drawling speak-sing voice for the lyrics, spinning bizarre mini-snapshots of decadent, cruel gangster behavior... The music isn't grim, though; it's more in a sly, ironic happy-go-lucky vein, as if to illustrate the callous, carefree glee gangsters take in such antics. It's not a celebration of the gangster mentality, though, so much as a subtle, mocking look at its decadence, with hints of repressed homosexuality and almost gruesome imagery of dog-eat-dog behavior." <ref>Unterberger, Richie.

| | |
| [[Ronnie Wood]] performed "Memo from Turner" live at various club gigs in 1987-88, including some of his shows with [[Bo Diddley]]. [[Martin Scorsese]] uses the track in a scene from ''[[Goodfellas]]'' where [[Ray Liotta]]'s character Henry emerges from the house during the daylight on a cocaine binge.
