first off i love when the Stones release alternate takes and cuts that wound up on the cutting room floor .I also understand why a lot of these tracks never made it on to proper studio albums also. Every one including the Stones and the fans have very high expectations about new album releases ,so i get where Jagger/Richards are coming from when stuff gets chopped and not released.

I prefer the 1969 Loving Cup to the Exile version, not due to the novelty of it being different, just because it sounds so damn good. Kinda more fitting to the lyrics too.

I have recently been listening to a lot of demos, rehearsals and alternate takes for EOMS, GHS and IORR and started to wonder if these albums reached their true potential or if the released tunes suffered from being overdone in search of perfection?

Perfection I don't know but this is basically what Andy Johns said of the early 1974 IORR sessions : they would play take after take, each one worse and more tepid the previous one, until Keef would suddenly declare without any reason "that's it! that's the one!!".
Otoh since AJ was deep into H himself he might not be too reliable as a direct witness.

Well, it was written, but not for Let It Bleed as such.

"Did Keith overcook tracks after Sticky Fingers?"
No, Mick did.

Me too - for the same reason + the (possible Hiwatt) guitar sound. I can understand why they wanted to make it a little different, though, since Torn And Frayed has these steel guitar licks, reminiscent of Keith's licks on the early LC-take.

At the time of recording they had a number of names and plans for more than one album.

Hum, at early stage acetates already contained 75% of the final Let It Bleed tracks, so we can think it was originally planned (along with Sister Morphine).
