In 1967 Korda was signed as a songwriter to Rolling Stones producer Andrew Loog Oldham's Immediate Records publishing company and went on to write for P.P. Arnold for her single "The Time Has Come". The song made the UK charts, and the Italian version "Se Perdo Te", recorded by Patty Pravo, reached No. 18 in Italy. Korda, like so many Immediate artists, wasn't paid, and, being a minor, repudiated his contract after the managing director took Korda's new 12-string guitar and gave it to another songwriter.
