The soundtrack to Ned Kelly, where Mick Jagger played the Australian outlaw. It was not a hit. Then girlfriend Marianne Faithful was set to co-star, but in typical Marianne fashion, she OD'd and spent time in an Australian hospital instead.
Original Soundtrack - Ned Kelly (United Artists 1970)
Mick contributes one song to the soundtrack. The Wild Colonial Boy. Not his finest hour.
According to legend, Mick spent the time in Australia waiting for Marianne's replacement and tending to her in hospital. Brown Sugar and Wild Horses were supposedly written during this time.
