So young should have been on the Album! Instead of suck on the jugular!

So you've been placed in charge of putting together a disc of Some Girls outtakes for the reissue. You are allowed 10 songs. What do you put on it?
Me? I'd put Claudine for sure. Really like No Spare Parts. Do You Think I Still Care is nice. Fiji Jim. Everlasting Is My Love.
What else might you select?

I agree nothing seems finished and unlikely they ever were. Claudine sounds finished (the revved-up version).

"Lonely at the top"...but Sir. Michael Philip Jagger ruined this great outtake with the awful solo version!

First of all; "I Need You"
After that - Do You Think I Really Care, So Young and Claudine
The thing about Some Girls outtakes.....even though they're great listens - the versions we know from bootlegs are not even half finished. For instance "A Different Kind".....cou've been great, as the chords and melody is terrific. But it's running dry pretty soon - pretty much because of the vocals. And I doubt that songs like these ever were finished, lyric-wise; or overdub-wise; based on interviews and the bootlegs. I bet a "Some Girls reissue" would be just as overdubbed as the "Exile reissue" if Jagger and the band ever would be satisfied enough with it to let it be officially released.
The best listens of the SG outtakes is actually "alternate" or "more complete" versions of the songs that made it to the album "Some Girls"
"More Fast Numbers" - the double CD from DAC - is a great starter to hear some of this stuff in best possible quality.

This long WHEN THE WHIP COMES DOWN jam. Starting around the 7:20 mark is especially a great rhythm-section-bit.

Hi Erik - this sounds fantastic;
"More Fast Numbers" - the double CD from DAC - is a great starter to hear some of this stuff in best possible quality.
- Do you know where one may find that either zip or mp3 (not rar)? Would love to hear these prized outtakes!
