They didn`t even release it in 2002. I think the last release is from the 80s. Yes, I mean CD and vinyl. does anybody know where to get it on CDfor a reasonable price? ebay is too expensive. on Amazon it is only available for download.

The Stones 60s catalogue was stranger than the Beatles because there a number of songs not released here in the States until 1973 at the earliest. We never heard Come On, Money, Poison Ivy, What To Do, and more.

But it was mutual; the British didn't have songs like "One More Try", "Congratulations", "Singer Not the Song", "Look What You've Done", "Ride On Baby", "My Girl", "the whole GOT LIVE IF YOU WANT IT! album etc. until the 70's... Even such a gem like "Sittin On A Fence" was not released until in THROUGH THE PAST, DARKLY collection, two years after its US release.

In May I began a listening program of all of my official cds from AC/DC to ZZ Top. With many artists I have complete catalogues. So I worked my way through the entire Stones catalogue but the thing I realized is I much prefer the way the Stones sixties catalogue was released in England. The Rolling Stones No. 2 is better than any configuration of those songs put out elsewhere and this goes double for Out Of Our Heads, Aftermath and Between The Buttons in their UK versions versus the American versions. Obviously you need the EPs and the Singles Collection to augment the albums but I have the first EP, the Five By Five EP and the original Got Live If You Want It EP from the releases that came out years ago.
The American releases therefore became problematic and I basically retired them. It always bugged me that songs from the Got Live If You Want It EP were put out as album tracks on US albums. The Beatles basically retired their American albums when releasing the material on CD and all you can get are the original British albums plus the Past Masters CDs for the singles. I think that was a great move.
As regards to the Stones sixties catalogue, any views on this?

buttons67, what you are doing reminds me of what I did in the early 80's when I started my Stones hobby. I also took the UK albums as a starting point, and then picked up the needed US albums that had some 'odd' number the UK ones didn't have. But you know, even somehow making of sense of that UK/US catalogue was the first obstacle in the way. Usually the sources that listed Stones albums, gave another, but not both. Very confusing. Without net it surely took more like three months than three hours to sort it all out!
Collecting Stones songs was like collecting stamps - I loved every minute!

Yes, the Stones album ' Out of our Heads ' sold in Sweden in 1965 was the US Edition ... it just happened with that particular album, otherwise it was always UK Edition..pretty strange...

And, Through The Past Darkly has a UK and an American version. The American version is nothing but singles. I'm assuming this is the last time the UK and American versions differed.

We had "The Singer Not The Song" on the b-side of "Get Off Of My Cloud".

Later, finally in the time of the WWW, I learned that I still missed out on several tracks, alternate versions, long/short versions etc ...

Which version of Everybody needs somebody to love is in No2?
The version of Now US or the one in More Hot rocks?
Based on the link Kowalski posted above, I'd say Hot Rocks
Correct?
