How will Deluxe Exile be any different from the original version? Remastering seems like a scam.

There is no other release besides Exile that can be held up to represent the greatest rock music ever recorded.

I'm sure Mick's appreciation of Exile is diminished by the circumstances surrounding its creation. I'm just reading Robert Greenfield's excellent book Exile On Main Street - A Season In Hell With The Rolling Stones and it's a miracle it ever got finished. Mick didn't have a very good time, getting married inbetween recording and having to deal with Bianca's reluctance to be part of the whole Nellcote scene, Keith's descent in junkjiedom and the arrival of Gram as Keith's new music (and drug) buddy.
Mick is unfortunately the perfectionist in the band who doesn't like any rough edges and I guess the whole thing sounds to thin for him.

"The only true filler on the album is I Just Want To See His Face and maybe, just maybe, Let It Loose."
Just want to see his face is Tom Waits favourite Stones song. Thats good enough for me. Let it loose is my favourite Stones song, em, thats good enough for me too!
A perfect album. Now lets watch Jagger F**K it up the way he always wanted too, when the re-release comes out! I won't buy it anyway. Seriously, this is one album that is worth buying an old record player for, and seeking out on vinyl.

i Know, somebody will disagree! Its a great album --for sure. but---where is a song like "Midnight Rambler" Or "Sympathie"?.. Casino boogie--"turd on the run--i just seen his face---soul survivour--are "fillers" --I mentioned "Beggars" and "Bleed"-but what i like most is "Aftermath" and "out of our heads".
