Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger sang in a Federal Court in New York to prove that he had not plagiarised a reggae song, ‘Just Another Night’, as claimed by Jamaican reggae artist Patrick Alley.
The song was the first single from his debut album ‘She’s the Boss’ in 1985 and reached the No.1 spot on the Billboard Top Rock Tracks.
