Outtakes: We got SF, Exile and SG outtakes. For the two latter an album's worth of them.

Now, come on, them were overdubbed with new vocals - with a terrible result, most of the time.

Their live releases, LA 1975, Brussels 1973, Hampton 1981, TX78 are all terrific; but studio outtakes; not so.

Only some of them, though.

Now you are practically begging for a new role in "Parterapi", Dandelion!

Godard happened to catch us on two very good nights. He might have come every night for two weeks and just seen us looking at each other with blank faces ...

--Jagger, '68 Rolling Stone interview


I think we all know that The Glimmers are notoriously unreliable when it comes to their public pronouncements about their work ... but perhaps there is a germ of truth in the sentiment above? Maybe he does honestly feel that because of the way the band works there is a LOT of downtime or unproductive noodling ... and that as a result any Beatles- or Dylan-like archive project would be hopeless?
