Yes, Exile is great but I wonder if it would have been better received at first if it were just a single disc of the very strongest cuts...
SOME GIRLS... weird album in a way: they left off tunes that, barring the context of the times, would've worked much better long term ie Fiji Gin, The Way She Held Me Tight/Misty Roads, I Need You... at least the deluxe gave us No Spare Parts and Do You Think I Really Care. The rest of it... eh, nothing inspiring.
STICKY FINGERS - considering that a good bit of what is on EXILE was done for SF... SF should've been a double album and EXILE a single album had they only used the France recordings, which, of course, means it would be very different.
EXILE ON MAIN STREET - see above. Love Plundered, Pass The Wine and the absolutely awesome I'm Not Signifying were released. The rest of it stinks.
I wouldn't say better than the original".... it's a completely different animal...but it's amongst my favourite albums of any type.
Some of it is kind of like what they were playing for fun...rather than what they thought they ought to be releasing.
A country album from the Stones in '77 might not have gone down too well with the trendy things of the time

It is incredible having the full show as I've always loved Ya-Ya's; the greatest version for me is definitely TeagueRaw remastered version of the Glyn John tapes; Get Yer Alternate Ya Ya's Out. It's marvellous!
We can re-guess how albums could have been forever. Love You Live as a single album...
... or Dirty Work as a triple album >

Nooooo!
Yeah ... don't get me started on what should have been on, and should have been left out of those deluxe albums. Why is Title 5 there and not the awesome original acoustic All Down The Line, for starters.
Agreed that Dylan's bootleg series is incredible, and I'm not even a big Dylan fan.
or lose LYL altogether and replace with a double LIVE AT THE EL MOCAMBO!
This is #1, of course. How could I forget this one in my ranking. Beautiful release! Love the book, too.

I agree with the ranking of franzk, but not with his remarks.
I like these deluxe albums as an addition to the famous albums, and the bonus of Some Girls
has the quality of a "stand alone" album, very near to Tattoo You.
I don't think the Some Girls album would have been that famous if it started out as a
double album in 1977.
And Plundered my soul would have ruined the legendary status of Exile on Main St if it was
somewhere between Let it Loose and All down the line or something. I never understood
why anybody would consider this song of the same quality as the other Exile-songs.
Just as long as the guitar plays, let it steal your heart away

1. Charlie Is My Darling
2. Sticky Fingers
3. Some Girls
4. Get Yer Ya-Yas Out
5. Exile On Main Street
Had Some Girls Live In Texas been included with the SG Deluxe package, it would have made number one on my list.
The Live In England '65 vinyl EP on Charlie Is My Darling was a stroke of genius
Exile was a disappointment to me. However, we knew there weren't a lot of outtakes around from those sessions.
I don't agree with them picking the wrong songs for SG Deluxe. A nice varied collection of songs, imo.

The SG-Bonus-disc is indeed better than the original album. Exile is very disappointing, listening to the bonus-CD is only a waste of time, they grabbed deep in the garbage can only to find junk. Exile should have been a single album anyway, to add even more (and awful bad) song-sketches wasnt such a great idea...
YaYa´s doesnt get better by inclusion of only four new songs and a completely unnecessary BB King/Tina Turner-set.
The deluxe-editions of Charlie Is My Darling & Sticky Fingers are wonderful releases indeed. So here is my ranking:
SF
Charlie Is My Darling
Some Girls
YaYa´s
Exile

The Exile bonus disc is spoiled by that horrible "Following The River" tune. I find the other songs brilliant, especially "Pass The Wine" and "So Divine.
I agree, though, that the "Some Girls" bonus disc is way better.

Yes, the "Ya-Ya's" deluxe release was a joy. To be able to complete the show with the new tracks, to get UMT (with some of my fav Keith playing) and hear Taylor's sweet little solo during I'm Free in that quality, plus Satisfaction...Super! How many people assembled a disc of a complete show in the order played? Someone even spliced in the missing verse on SFTD to complete that classic performance. Now that is the only version of "Ya-Ya's" that I listen to.
To recreate the actual '69 concert show experience (at least the one I saw) sit around for 90 minutes then play the BB King side, then sit around for another 30 or 45 minutes and play Ike & Tina, then sit around for a short hour and play the Stones. It was a long night.

Thinking ahead, the best one could be Let It Bleed if they really dig deep and find demos and run throughs of songs like Midnight Rambler, Monkey Man and You Can't Always Get What You Want. There already is a good album's worth of extra material recorded around that time available on bootlegs so with a little excavation it could be a true revelation.

Same with Exile and Sticky bonus discs, although they contain a few gems. I made a Spotify playlist with my own mixture of the "best of the Taylor years", combining songs from The Exile and Sticky bonus discs along with relevant tracks from Metamorphosis, which became a pretty neat 12 track album. I'll post it some day.

besides that: I'm fine with the original version of Exile. The new additional CD is quite enjoyable – although I'd never trade any of the original cuts with any of the songs of the new stuff (although the alternate take of All Down The Line that was exclusively released by amazon is really great)

4. GYYYO - well, it would be better if they would give a complete unedited and overdubs-free show. Still, 5 bonus tracks are very pleasant addition.
5. Marquee 71 + Brussels 73 - kind of weird combination. But at lest it was affordable, unlike Bravado box.

Bravado Brussels Box Set- I was lucky and got it on sale. And it is amazing. One of the largest box sets I have ever seen. Solid wood, well done packaging, poster, watch, and the vinyl. The vinyl, to me, sounds better than the FLAC files. Its a stunning set.
Some Girls. That bonus disc could have been easily released as a stand alone album. Amazing!
LA Friday Ward Records box. Another great packaging job in a large box. Great vinyl, Blueray, and CD. The inner sleeves are fantastic live photos, and a killer tour T-Shirt.
Hampton Ward Records box set. Another top quality box set from Nippon! Like LA, great vinyl, T-shirt, Blueray, CD. Lovely and again, great vinyl pressing.
Brussels/Marquee 71 Ward box set. Both albums, CDs, and Blueray. Again, the vinyl sounds fantastic, great packaging, and unique.
GYYO- CD. If it was vinyl it would be no. 2 or 3. Small box, cool packaging, and some fantastic extras! I wish they would do this on vinyl!
Sticky Fingers Deluxe box set. Very nice. And some great bonus material. Nice press release photos, and knick-knacks.
Knebworth- A great bootleg box set. Large blue box with five cds, t-shirt, a thick book about Knebworth. Press pass. Pretty cool.
