"She was common, weighty, she looked about eighty"
How can you be a trolling fake fan too when you don't prattle on and on about garbage? I think the bonus disc of EOMS is way better than the SG bonus because it has significantly better material on it - which it does - although the SG bonus does have 5 great tracks on it. Those blues tracks are just boring.
lmao......great one....[/quote]

I remember thinking that a few year's ago when he recounted how on tour he bought a coffee maker for his hotel room (don't most hotels already have coffee makers in the room?) so that he could save money rather than buy coffee from the coffee shop.

I wonder if we'll get one of Keith's "It just happened, man" statements about the blues album.
Which would probably be quite accurate, really.
Starting to really look forward to this album.

The problem is what he plays, not how he plays. If he had a piano that allowed him to play like on "Fancy Man Blues" we would all be saying it's like having Stu back. If he was allowed to mainly play tasty organ fills like he does much of the time in the studio, we would putting him up with Billy Preston. The live keyboard role is far different. It augments and sometimes substitutes for guitar and even provides percussion and at the worst of times harmonica. That's a far cry from what fans enjoy. It's not a question of Chuck can't, it's a question of whether the band wants a true keyboard player or prefers a magician to compensate for them without the general audience being aware of the sleight of hand.

So did Chuck play on the album? The press release says he does but it also says no overdubs. Chuck's blog post seems to indicate he was not present at the sessions, so if he's on the record his parts must have been overdubbed?! No Chuck and Matt Clifford low in the mix would seem a good thing, though.

No guitar overdubs like on the DVD ?
And I don't speak about Desert Trip "Live" videos.
Start Me Up (2013 music) and Get Off My Cloud (2006 !). It inspires confidence for sure.
Just marketing stuff...
Sure Don Was works after the recordings...

That partially explains why the SOME GIRLS extras album is so weak.
The SG-Bonus-CD is surprisingly good. Some very good songs indeed. Maybe you meant the Exile-Bonus-CD is weak? That disc indeed is only filled with what they found at the bottom of the barrel.
Your trolling fake sense of fandom is predictable but I'll comment anyway since you have no idea what quality is and information has zero relevance:
There are only 5 good songs on the SG bonus disc:
No Spare Parts
Do You Think I Really Care
We Had It All
You Win Again
Tallahassee Lassie.
The rest of it blows (So Young was a scam since it was already released - they might as well've put Everything Is Turning To Gold on it). They left a few other really good songs off. No Spare Parts and Do You Think I Really Care would've fit on the excellent SOME GIRLS had they finished them.
The EOMS bonus disc is much better, partly because it's shorter so the quality content is higher. For the most part. Amazingly one of their best songs was not put on EOMS, I'm Not Signifying. Pass The Wine and Plundered My Soul are great tunes. Following The River is ruined by Mick's oversinging and is a sappy mess in general. Dancing In The Light and So Divine (which should've had Mick Taylor add new guitar instead of Keith's string strangles) are decent and would've made good B-sides if they'd been finished in 1972. The different takes of Loving Cup and Soul Survivor are great, as is Good Time Women. Why they put a track from 1967 on it has never been explained.
Bollocks.

Yes-man?
Matt did play with Yes and on soloprojects of Yes members
In fact that's how he started working with the Stones as Yes (or rather Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman and Howe, honest I didn't look it up! ) were also recording an album in Montserrat.
I still remember that Vanity Fair interview from early 92 where Matt was described as Mick's "musical aide de camp" while they were working on the then unreleased "Don't Tear Me Up". There must have been a slight fallout though since he was barely on WS and then had to take a pass on VL and the tour...

Will there be any original songs, written by Jagger and Richards? I would like to hear at least one on the new CD. But I will be pleased with covers of the great blues songs from days gone by.
The Stones have written and sung several blues songs, such as Back of My Hand and Down in the Hole.
