1964 song by Bobby Womack and Shirley Womack
For the unrelated song of the same name by Blackfoot, see After the Reign (album).Not to be confused with the 1965 Bob Dylan song "It`s All Over Now, Baby Blue".
"It`s All Over Now" is a song written by Bobby Womack and his sister-in-law Shirley Womack.[1] It was first released by The Valentinos, featuring Bobby Womack, in 1964. The Rolling Stones heard it on its release and quickly recorded a cover version, which became their first number one hit in the United Kingdom, in July 1964.
The Valentinos version
The Valentinos recorded the song at United Recording in Hollywood on March 24, 1964,[2] and released it two months later.[3] It entered the Billboard Hot 100 on June 27, 1964, and stayed on the chart for two weeks, peaking at number 94.[4]
Personnel
- Bobby Womack – lead vocals, guitar, co-writer
- Cecil Womack – background vocals
- Harry Womack – background vocals
- Friendly Womack Jr. – background vocals
- Curtis Womack – background vocals
- Sam Cooke – producer
The Rolling Stones version
The Rolling Stones landed in New York on June 1, 1964, for their first North American tour, around the time the Valentinos` recording was released. New York radio DJ Murray the K played the song to the Rolling Stones. He also played the Stones` "King Bee" (their Slim Harpo cover) the same night and remarked on their ability to achieve an authentic blues sound. After hearing "It`s All Over Now" on that WINS show, the band recorded their version nine days later at Chess Studios in Chicago. Years later, Bobby Womack said in an interview that he had told Sam Cooke he did not want the Rolling Stones to record their version of the song, and that he had told Mick Jagger to get his own song. Cooke convinced him to let the Rolling Stones record the song. Six months later, after receiving the royalty check for the song, Womack told Cooke that Mick Jagger could have any song he wanted.
The Rolling Stones` version of "It`s All Over Now" is the most famous version of the song. It was first released as a single in the UK, where it peaked at number 1 on the UK Singles Chart, giving the Rolling Stones their first number one hit.[5] It was the band`s third single released in America, and stayed in the Billboard Hot 100 for ten weeks, peaking at number 26. Months later it appeared on their second American album 12 X 5. The song was a big hit in Europe and was part of the band`s live set in the 1960s. Cash Box described it as a "contagious cover of the Valentinos` click" and "an infectious thumper that should head right for chartsville."[6]
In his 2010 autobiography, Life, Keith Richards says that John Lennon criticized his guitar solo on this song and Richards agreed that it was not one of his best.
In 1964 Bill Wyman said, "We just liked the sound of it. We didn`t think it sounded country and western until we read it somewhere. It`s the 12-string guitar and harmonising that do it. Every one of our records has been different. We don`t want to do the same old thing every time or people will get fed up with it."[7]
