BackgroundThe song is included on side two of Exile, the side known for its acoustic folk and country tunes. Janovitz continues, "The music comes as close to definitive country-rock or Stax-like country-soul as anything from the era, barring Gram Parsons – an immediate influence on the Stones." Gram Parsons was present for the recording sessions of Exile at Nellcôte, and "Torn and Frayed" is perhaps the most overtly Parsons-influenced cut the Stones ever recorded, with a country-soul flavour reminiscent of the Parsons-fronted Flying Burrito Brothers' 1969 debut album The Gilded Palace of Sin. In fact, Al Perkins, a good friend and collaborator of Parsons', appears on the track and performs the song's pedal steel guitar. Jagger performs lead vocals and is accompanied by Richards on backing. Richards provides the song's base of acoustic guitar and electric Telecaster. Mick Taylor bass and Charlie Watts performs drums. Organ is performed by Jim Price and piano is played by Nicky Hopkins.[2] Recording took place at Los Angeles' Sunset Sound Studios between the months of December 1971 and March 1972. Janovitz says of the lyrics, "'Torn and Frayed' follows a vagabond-like guitar player whose 'coat is torn and frayed'": {{quote|Well the ballrooms and smelly bordellos, and dressing rooms filled with parasitesOn stage the band has got problems, they're a bag of nerves on first nights He ain't tied down to no home town, yeah, and you thought he was reckless You think he's bad, he thinks you're mad, yeah, and the guitar player gets restless.}} Live performances"Torn and Frayed" was performed by the Stones during the 1972 tour of America and was reintroduced to setlists during the 2002 leg of the Licks Tour. In 2009, it was covered by The Black Crowes on Warpaint Live. The song was also covered by Phish during their cover of Exile on Main St. on 31 October 2009. The song later appeared in another of their live shows in Cincinnati on 21 November 2009, as well as during their Superball IX festival in 2011 and at a live show in Pittsburgh on 23 June 2012.
