I think the Some Girls deluxe stand alone cuts, as an album is better that most of what they have released since Undercover, excepting perhaps HD.
That is a fabulous country album and should have had it's own release and not been directly linked to Some Girls as some sort of castoffs, "songs that didn't quite make the cut" - type release. I think it's better than Blue & Lonesome.

..But like others here, IMHO the Some Girls bonus disk is a cut above. It hangs together like a proper album and... Love it!

I happen to enjoy all of the bonus material on all the reissues, and they get a lot of play on my systems. (My only complaint is basically that I'd like to have more!)

I agree 100%. My wet dream is to have a proper Country album from the lads in the same vein as Blue and Lonesome.
IMHO Keep Up Blues is the best thing they've released since Keys To Your Love and Don't Stop. That dry, Tele through a Fender Twin with Charlie's precious syncops keeping up the chops-sound is what I want all day long

Keith's guitar track must surely be a Strat? It sounds lovely just the same

Yeah that's a great one too Terry! It's just that the intro riff, Charlie's shuffle beat and Mick's lyrics IMHO eclipse WYG even if that's a helluva tune as well!

I agree to that. I don't care much about the GHS, Exile, Tattoo you and SF bonus tracks, they're all very inferior to the main album. Most of them are unfinished demo's anyway. But the bonus disc from the Some girls deluxe edition is fabulous. It would indeed have been a very descent album on its own and deserves more credit than being a 'bonus disc'.

I don't get the reissues for the album, just the extras. In fact, why they bother to include the album in any of the super deluxe releases is pointless.
There is a a funny social construction called money that makes funny things happen.
But then again it would be funny if someone buys, say, The Super Deluxe Edition of BLACK AND BLUE and finds out that there is not that album at all...

You think it's UMe's way of getting me to buy their shitty remastering of whatever album since I didn't get any of them in their standard edition? It's like Ume knows.
I've only listened to the 2011 SOME GIRLS. Only three songs in, I think, and that was enough. Never played it again. SF and TY didn't bother. Only got the EXILE rarities stand alone album.
I will not be cajoled into listening/playing any remastered Stones album by Ume.
You appear to be a tough tough tough not f***ing around guy, but, really, I think you should show a bit more sympathy for the record industry. After all, they bring you the music that makes your heart grow fonder and enrichens your soul from musicians you without these corporations most likely would never had heard from. Seriously.

They weren't unfinished demos. They were unfinished studio recordings. Big difference. Some of the tracks on the TY deluxe were SG tracks. There's a whole other SG album if one wants it, with or without SG session tracks finished for ER and TY proper.

Yep, and for the record, we all want Jagger & Co to come up with summat similar with B & B and also ER (and Undercover??). The bonus disc of Tattoo You is rather good, almost as good as the SG one IMHO

Don’t give them ideas. They’re just the kind of band who would do this.

As always the question is, how many tracks are really completed, production-wise or at least songwriting-wise.

Just dropped in to see if there was any progress on Black and Blue actually becoming a Super Deluxe release. Doesn't look like there's any news on that front.

Exactly...they'll prolly release something this September, take our money during the Xmas season and then announce it in February of next year, just in time for the 40th anniversary...and then maybe the Paris 76 show gets a September 2026 release.
Amirite?
