Yeah, actually I wanted to write exactly that but at least SOL was ok when played live...
Don't know about that. Still sucks pretty bad to me. FTR isn't much better,but at least it has Nicky Hopkins piano playing.Quote

Strange that if a bootleg with For Your Precious Love appears people jump on the Stones, accusing them to make the wrong choices with the selection of material for their offocial albums (in this case, Steel Wheels), hailing songs like For Your Precious Love as "lost classics" -
- and when the Stones release stuff like "Following The River", it is slaughered as sounding like "Elton John".
What can the Stones learn from this? Keep outtakes officially unreleased, and if you want people to hear them, give them to bootleggers, because then your fans will like any stuff, no matter how half-baken and unfinished it may be.
Seems like outtakes on boots add considerably to the myth, while releasing them officially destroys it.

heart-rent at having to leave the she-eel but the territorial imperative compels him

Lol, that's funny - it certainly has the wriggle with it as well.

I wish it wasn't such a caricature of a song because it has good basics.
it's just way overdone.

when most bands release their outtakes its usually on a box set and people play them a few times say it's pretty cool and then hardly ever play them again but the stones can still make singles from theirs .

This piano-based song should be supported by electric guitar(s), with at least a part from Mick Taylor of course (this song screams for his licks!) and furthermore Mick Jagger should have never used violins on this song! It's ugly as hell! These strings have nothing to add except creating a "wall of sound" (the negative meaning).
