I'm going to pretend Mick called me up and asked me to produce a new Tattoo You with what's still in the vault (as far as I know),
Side A
1-And I Was a Country Boy
2-Who Am I
3-Hamburger To Go
4-Still A Fool
5-Blood Red Wine
Side B
1-Travelin' Man
2-Potted Shrimp
3-Hillside Blues (I hate to cut this down to fit the side)
4-Walk With Me Wendy
5-Exile Ballad
Bonus cuts: Trident Jam, Curtis Meets Smokey
I also toyed with Who Am I as a single w/ Trident Jam as a B-side and putting Curtis Meets Smokey on the album, but I needed more of an upbeat song.
How about sticking in Highway Child, pretty upbeat

Hmm.. No matter how much I have personally loved the bonus tracks over the years, I think the Stones/UMG sort of screwed up the potentiality of these old out-takes by making them nothing but tools to sell the reissues a bit better. With that concept by being 'bonus tracks' the tunes were doomed. Since getting only a die-hard fan interest they were fated to be pretty marginal. Taking the quality many of them has, I think they would have deserved better. I think some of them surpass in quality anything they have done since the 80's.
If not totally TATTOO YOU type release, but at least a release of their own had been a better option to give these great tracks more spot light. Not being in the shadow of some classic stuff, but an entity of its own.

over the last ten years or so we've got most of the fabled stuff we'd begged for over the previous many-many years ...
I think we're now rooting around in the bottom of barrel for any old tatty scraps.
Travelin Man, Hillside Blues, Stones version of Separately, zip Mouth Angel,and possibly others that remain unreleased.Plus there are songs like Moonlight Mile and Pass the Wine were cut down from much longer takes.I’d love to hear a 10 minute Moonlight MileQuote

I wouldn't consider Misty Roads or I Need You as barrel scraping for one and there is a lot of potentisl in those snippets heard in the playbsck of English Rose and Man Eating Woman.

That would be fine...so long as it sounds good and finished.

Vol.1-3 have proven the material offered here often was quite finished : I remember Strictly Memphis with horns which was brand new (previous versions lacked the brass addition).
Imho the horns overdubs made the song absolutely exciting.
I say it again ; when we get an expanded reissue of DW with lots of outtakes - around 2060? - people will stop saying it was the nadir of the band’s discography.

DP/B. I want to hear as much new stuff as possible before I croak.
Finished, unfinished, lossless, lossy, bring it on.

Then there were some that received frivolous modern Wood overdubs

So far as "hard copy" releases go...I think there's certainly scope for another "Rarities" type package... alternative takes, single B sides and other stuff that wasn't on the respective original album releases for one reason or another.
If they're going to release more & deeper "out-takes" stuff, please put the effort into making it sound really good and not just like the bloody bootlegs that've been circulating for donkey's years.
