Pat, my promo 45 has a listed time of (2:42), just as you currently state in the database. But the actual run time of the song is (2:57).

Pardon me if this seems like a strange question, but I wasn't around when this song was originally out.
It seems to me whenever I hear "Jumpin' Jack Flash" on the radio it sounds very warped. Has it always sounded this way? I can only imagine someone years ago did a needle drop on a warped or off-center 45, put it on a CD, and that copy became used on other releases and so on. Does the song sound this way to anyone else?

Yes, it kind of has an "off tune" sound to it, but I always thought it was intended to be that way. My copy on Hot Rocks is definitely not a needle drop.

I agree with Aaron. I always thought the record just sounded off, especially during the instrumental break.

My understanding is that the guitar was recorded on a cassette or a wallensack reel to reel unit away from a recording studio, but they liked the sound and built the song around it.

Anyone know how to create the 2:57 promo version?

That's right. Mick and Keith sometimes made demos on
cassettes and then dumped to multitrack tape to use for the
backing track.

I believe the edit is made by cutting out from around 1:33 to 1:52, eliminating the guitar break, then at the end fading early to 2:57. But my source is an old Drake Chenault tape so that could have been a custom. Normally they used real radio edits though.
