I love how people suddenly get disappointed that a 33-year old outtake that theyve already heard and which most people asked to be released ISNT a new Brown Sugar.
The sense of disappointment is what I was alluding to. Ridiculous expectations for a song that didnt make the original album to begin with.
I was thinking about that when people were so excited that Claudine would be released.
Of course it's a good outtake on a bootleg but (IMO) it's not up to par with most of their official releases.
Had it been on an official release...not many would think twice about it (except Ms. Longet).
Heck....had they left SWEET NEO CON off of A BIGGER BANG and it circulated on bootlegs etc...
people would probably think that was a great song too.
A psychologist could probably explain it.
i think you're wrong about Claudine...and in fact it was going to be on SG...but was pulled for legal reasons...so it's not really an outtake in the sense the stones didn't think it worthy of being on the album...

Reaction among Stones fans to the track was largely positive, although there was some debate about whether Mick Jagger had re-recorded the vocal, as he did for some of the bonus tracks on the Exile On Main St reissue last year.

Are you sure? I believe it was pulled from ER not SG.

Bigger Bang ... Cutting out some 5 songs and you would have had a well received and memorable record.
I agree, but I think we're in the minority.
I also agree with this.

right, ER, not SG - but my general point is the same. claudine was deemed "good enough" by the band...so i don't think it's just perception that most of us like it cos it's an outtake...

Since I'm expecting a new set of lyrics and (obviously) a new lead vocal for "Claudine" changing the subject matter entirely, I'll be happy if it's just a great rockabilly track with maybe minor guitar touch-up's if any were needed. I'm trying to remind myself that (apart from "Pass the Wine") "Plundered My Soul" was not indicative of the quality of the other reworked EXILE outtakes, but I consider "No Spare Parts" very encouraging. I'm liking it more upon repeated listenings which is always a good sign. I'll be eager to hear the rest of the tracks.

I like both versions...Mick's delivery on the original is more 'lazy and authentic', which sounds great.
That said, don't mind the new vocal at all.
As a choice for a single, maybe not a bad idea...perhaps one of the only ways they may make a breakthru on the charts nowadays, via country audience, which still sell big.
Only question is whether this will sell with country fans.

I like the new vocals.
What I miss is the great electronic piano (?) in the outtake version. That sound gave the song a beautiful feeling.
New Vocals. New acoustic guitar (Mick part) New electric guitar (new Ronnie part)
New piano part.
