Some 8 track tapes had extra music on them to "fill in" space because of the longer time on 8 tracks.
Does anyone know if any of the songs on their 8 track releases had extended times over the album release?
Surprisingly my 8 track player still works.
Anyone have insigt on this?

We have the Some Girls tracks from the 8-track, that are different: Beast of Burden, Miss You, Shattered, Far Away Eyes (you can find all on youtube, I am sure).
But supposedly a Black & Blue track is different too, Cherry Oh Baby is the one if I remember correctly. But nobody ever posted it, that I am aware of. If you have a working 8 track, maybe you can do that for us all!

Wow, that was a really satisfying listen to the longer version of BoB, thank you! The magic of the good old Internet bringing people together.
And to think that it was "always there" hidden in plain sight for 42 years. All of these little nooks and crannies associated with the Rolling Stones.
It must have been interesting in the old days when they had to mix for the album and for the 8-track formats.

Now there is a worthwhile track, note it is the same album that contained Miss You, also one of the exceptions. So I guess both of those are on the same 8 track.

When I heard the 8 track version of BOB I wondered why it hasn't been released anywhere else ala RARITIES etc.

I am told that Undercover's Pretty Beat Up has an extra verse on 8-track and that there are differences in some songs on Dirty Work's 8-track?
Anyone ever notice anything on these 2 8-tracks?
