Each to their own. I'd define 'great' as a song of the calibre of 'Gimme Shelter', 'Moonlight Mile' or 'Winter', not an unfinished throwaway.
This stuff belongs on bootlegs or at best on a bonus CD/anthology style release.
To dig out 40 year old outtakes and pass them off as a 'new' album would be the ultimate in barrel scraping. Its like something you'd expect from the estates of Elvis or Jimi Hendrix, not from am 'active' band with three songwriters.
How desperate are we that 2012 versions of these songs as a new record would be deemed to be a positive move? It would be a bad joke if they did something like that.

what's the difference if a song was written in 1977 or 2012?
my abacus says: 35 years.
Means nothing. Not always.
damn my abacus, then.

If people are so anxious to avoid 'new' songs, then maybe its better for them that the band never record another note.
a well-bribed engineer could "accidentally" forget to hit the record button and spare us all...
points well taken but lets face it only diehards will bother buying or listening , just the cold hard truth

put me down as a diehard then. An LP of all blues ala claptons' 'from the cradle' or something similar to 'stripped' but better thought-out with just slow blues....you can keep the 40 year old outtakes..

I agree 100%. The Stones need to make a new CD. Besides, this music is inferior.

Exactly! I always wonder about people wishing the Stones now to do a blues album.
That would be dreadful and at least Jagger knows it . .

In your opinion could be included in a collection of outtakes or published as a new album a la Tattoo You?

So you're saying he's bound to benefit from future superdeluxe releases of Bridges to Babylon, A Bigger Bang and Rarities?
Will they observe a 20th anniversary of the rerelease of the Some Girls Deluxe album in 2031?
