"Lady Jane" is a song by The Rolling Stones that featured on their 1966 album Aftermath. The song was released as the B-side to "Mothers Little Helper" in America. It was one of the few singles released by the Rolling Stones in America where both songs made the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. "Mothers Little Helper" peaked at # 8 and "Lady Jane" peaked at # 24. It delivers an Elizabethan atmosphere with its lyrics and haunting instrumentation showcasing Brian Jones on dulcimer. It was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and is considered by many fans to be one of the highlights from the Aftermath album, and one of their best tunes. On the studio version, there are no drums. It is one of many of the Rolling Stones early (Brian Jones-era) hits that have not been played live since his death. Because of its melodic quality and its classical mood Lady Jane is regarded by critics as one of those songs for which Brian Jones deserved a song writing credit.
