Bluesberry Jam
With Exile On Main St. released it was time for the Rolling Stones to rehearse for the upcoming US tour, due to commence on June 3, 1972. Rehearsals took place from May 15-19 at the Rialto Theatre, Montreux, Switzerland, a disused theatre complete with the intended tour stage. The backing band for the tour again comprised Nicky Hopkins, Bobby Keys and Jim Price, but during the rehearsals Ian Stewart also jammed with the band, most notably on an instrumental shuffle and roll blues song called 'Bluesberry Jam', aka 'Jammin' With Stu'.
