Neither Bitter Sweet Symphony or the track it very heavily sampled - the orchestral version of the Stones' The Last Time - sound anything like the original Stones' track. Andrew Oldham's orchestra version was part of an album of Stones songs, and their version of The Last Time is so radically different to the original that even Jagger and Richards would not recognize any similarities, but writing credit had to obviously be given to them considering the title of the album (below) - but I'm damned if I can hear anything of the Stones original in the orchestra version. Composer Whitaker should have made better use of his composition and claimed it for his own. That way perhaps a better deal could have been struck with Verve from the off. All about the publishing rights, and not the music itself, I suppose.
What say you?
and, of course, any excuse to stick this one up :
