N Meade is credited as the composer of Time Is On My Side, I do believe. It is interesting that the Decca release reinstated it to Ragovoy's name. Clerical error? I think he wrote under other pseudonyms too, didn't he?On The Flip-Sidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07319364292191851993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4497209460362406306.post-16755828323298390182013-05-02T09:57:04.333-07:002013-05-02T09:57:04.333-07:00Any idea why the writing credits are different on ...Any idea why the writing credits are different on The Who's version? Jerry Ragovoy, author of Time Is On My Side, is listed instead of N. Meade as co-writer with Mimm.

But you may be a little harsh on The Who here. The A Cappella version is a real nice instructors manual. I really like, in that British way, John's backup vocals. <br /><br />Mimms is real nice. He did the original of Cry Baby (made famous by Janis Joplin). And The Rolling Stones, The Pretty Things and Them all covered his work as well.

I've got Th wHo's version on the deluxe My Generation CD (and the vocal only). But I had never heard Garnet Mimms before. Real good. I'll have to check him out more. <br /><br />Great series. I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Norman Roscoenoreply@blogger.com
