All the arguements about how good this song is, is best answered by the fact that it was not found good enough to be on Exile in the first place. It's an ok song, but still not good enough to get onto a double album. That should telle us something...
So the songs they did for Sticky Fingers were not good enough to go on SF, some of them went on Exile. should not have been released as all then by your way of thinking (you feel the same about Some Girls, Emotional Rescue, Tattoo You and Undercover as well?). Not all that they recorded in 1971 for Exile went on Exile obviously. Plus you have recordings dating back to 1969...
Illogical logic at best.
Indeed, nonsense by someone who knows little or nothing about the making of SF and EOM.
To further the argument, just because a song is not completed for a current album doesn't remotely mean it's a lesser song. It just means that for any variety of reasons, they didn't finish it.
Maybe they forgot about it? Maybe they didn't have the inspiration at that moment to complete a certain part? Maybe on the day Mick was lyrically dry?
Maybe it started out good, but then it morphed into 38 reggae takes of the same song and that version got stuck in their head, only to dig it up years later to put the first version of the song on the new album (hang on, did that happen before?)?
Dunno, maybe?

<Just a load of guitar fills that wouldn't have received much if any focus had Taylor's involvement not been mentioned.>
I think that is pretty descript
but still quite meaningless nonetheless.
Is that even possible? It's descript for what he's hearing...

what he's hearing is probably meaningless then. I have to be right.

Sticking to the question of this thread, the song isn't played live because it's an outtake in every way.
Then why did they perform anything from Tattoo You on that tour then since the whole thing was outtakes!!!???? AUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH you people drive me nuts with your irrational rationale!

Tattoo you was never promoted as out takes. It was realeased as a NEW Rolling Stones album. AUUUUUUUGGGHH Your statement drives me nuts.
