Salt Of The Earth (Rolling Stones, Axl, Izzy)

Perhaps one of the true golden nuggets in the Rolling Stones is Salt of the Earth from the 1968 album Beggars Banquet was recorded at London's Olympic Sound Studios from May until July in 1968.  As on the rest of the album the song features Richards acoustic guitar work and notably Richards sings the lead vocal.  The song has been played historically only six times, once at the request of Axl Rose and Izzy Stradlin when they were asked what song they'd like to perform over the course of three nights at Atlantic City in '89 on the Stones Steel Wheels/ Urban Jungle tour.  Richards and Jagger have only played the song twice since at the Concert for New York City and in London in 2003 on the Licks tour.
