A couple of weeks ago, someone posted an alternative tracklisting for the Sticky Fingers LP. I'd like to try it out, but can't find the thread now.

If the poster is reading this, could you post it again please?

It goes from the heavier guitar tracks to CW to blues to the finale:
BS
Bitch
CYHMK
Sway
DF
WHorses
IGTBlues
YGM
SM
MLMile

I posted one a while back that included tracks held over for Exile. It makes Sticky bizarrely better in terms of having more that are great tunes.

Interesting. More of a CD (continuous listen) tracking rather than two LP sides.

Skip, do you still have that track list?

I second that!

Here is what I came up with based on what I have learned. It's in the order of SF with the extras thrown in:

Brown Sugar
Sway
Loving Cup
Wild Horses
Can't You Hear Me Knocking
Stop Breaking Down
Shine A Light
You Gotta Move
Torn And Frayed
Bitch
I Got The Blues
Sister Morphine
Sweet Virginia
Dead Flowers
Moonlight Mile

Brown Sugar, Sway & Wild Horses. Offhand I can't think of a better three song start on any album ever by anyone. If I were talking about a two song intro then Black Dog and Rock and Roll would run it close but three sonsg, I can't think of anything better.

You are spot on Braincapers!! Couldn't agree more!

Mother's Little Helper, Stupid Girl & Lady Jane perhaps?

How about these four tracks:

Brown Sugar - Sway - Wild Horses - Can´t You Hear Me Knocking?...

I still think Aftermath (UK version) matches or tops it, with Under My Thumb as the 4th track.
