Bobby Womack: The Mystery Man
Charles Shaar Murray, Q, March 1987
NEW YORK CITY 1985. The Rolling Stones are holed up in the studio cutting tracks for Dirty Work, their first album under their new deal with CBS Records, and the album which Stones insiders firmly believe will be their last. With them is Bobby Womack, the man who wrote 'It's All Over Now', the song that gave them their first US hit in 1964 and which transformed them from some kind of long-haired English freak show to a serious international attraction. Womack is there because of a frantic phone call from Ron Wood.
