Why would there be a 1989-2005 compilation? Is there an existing compilation that ENDS with tracks from Dirty Work? No, for single-disc compilations, you've got:

Big Hits (1964-1966)
Big Hits Vol. 2 (1966-1969)
Made In The Shade (really Big Hits Vol. 3) (1971-1974)
Sucking In The Seventies (really Big Hits Vol. 4) (1974-1980)

So wouldn't the next volume in the series begin with 1981 and Start Me Up?

you forgot jump back and rewind

Jump Back Vol. 2 would not begin with Steel Wheels. Rewind Vol. 2 would not begin with Steel Wheels, either. You guys are talking about an utterly pointless compilation that would not fill ANY gap in their current official discography.

I think you missed the point here a little bit.

We're not the Stones' marketing crew. The kind of collection discussed here has another purpose: Showing what great work they're still capable of, even after their various "last truly great album"s.

I very much like this concept. Only problem is: Everybody has a different setlist ;-)

Great lists. Mine would include most of the songs others have listed, but I can't believe no one mentioned "Too Tight". Probably my favorite rocker since 1989.

OK...I'll jump in

Side A
01 Moon Is Up
02 Learning The Game
03 Mean Disposition
04 Under The Radar
05 Too Tight
06 Anybody Seen My Baby

Side B
01 She Saw Me Coming
02 Almost Hear You Sigh
03 Continental Drift
04 Highwire
05 Slipping Away

I see - there's been much talk about LPs recently...

But that's not a bad concept. I followed this approach with my own compilations a lot. Forces one to edit strictly.

Yeah it's a nice concept.
It's just a shame one can't make LP-Rs - at least I'm not able

My post-JUMP BACK Compilation / Virgin retrospective would be...

1. Love is Strong
2. You Got Me Rocking
3. Out of Tears
4. I Go Wild [Scott Litt remix]
5. Like a Rolling Stone
6. Flip the Switch
7. Anybody Seen My Baby [No Biz edit]
8. Out of Control [Saber Final Mix]
9. Saint of Me
10.Don't Stop
11.Rough Justice
12.Streets of Love [from THE BIGGEST BANG]
13.Rain Fall Down
14.Biggest Mistake

1. Mixed Emotions
2. You Got Me Rocking
3. Rock And A Hard Place
4. Saint Of Me
5. Rough Justice
6. Don't Stop
7. Out of Tears
8. Out of Control
9. Rain Fall Down
10. Love Is Strong
11. Jump On Top Of Me
12. Flip The Switch
13. Slipping Away
14. Suck on the Jugular
15. Almost Hear You Sigh
16. Anybody Seen My Baby
17. Back of My Hand

Not much new here. Sorry, you asked.

Rocky, where can I get the No Biz edit of HASMB?

Thanks!

Scotty

Here's my list:

1. High Wire
2. You Got Me Rocking
3. Rock And A Hard Place
4. Low Down
5. Rough Justice
6. Saint Of Me
7. I Go Wild
8. Out of Control
9. This Place Is Empty
10. Love Is Strong
11. Sad Sad Sad
12. Almost Hear You Sigh
13. Don't Stop
14. Out of Tears
15. The Worst
16. Anybody Seen My Baby
17. Thru And Thru
18. Mixed Emotions
19. Like a Rolling Stone
20. Slipping Away

Let's think of it along the eccentric lines of Sucking In The Seventies?

And why not two discs? With no overlap with Forty Licks?

1. "Sad Sad Sad"
2. "She Was Hot"
3. "Too Rude"
4. "Too Much Blood"
5. "Had It With You"
6. "Terrifying"
7. "Harlem Shuffle (12" remix)"
[The "NY" version, from Collectibles is incredible]
8. "Fancy Man Blues"
9. "Moon Is Up"
10."Sex Drive"
11."Out of Tears"
12."Mean Disposition"
13."Continental Drift"
14. "Who Do You Love?" (Bo Diddley/Stones--live, '94)
15."For Your Precious Love" [unreleased Steel Wheels track]
16. "Slipping Away"


1. "Can't You Hear Me Knockin' (live, 2002)"
2. "Saint of Me"
3. "Back of my Hand"
4. "Might As Well Get Juiced (Keith's Revenge Mix)"
5. "Rip This Joint ("Stripped" outtake)"
6. "Lowdown"
7. "Rain Fell Down"
8. "No Expectations("Stripped" outtake)"
9. "The Storm"
10. "Let Me Down Slow"
11."Get Up, Stand Up (live, 2005)"
12."Rough Justice"
13."Out of Control (live, 1998)" [complete! No edits]
14."Thief In The Night
15. "How Can I Stop"

The running order is tricky, but I'm pretty sure that would rattle a few people who don't think the Stones have been worthwhile since '78...

Elmo Lewis, the great Urban Steel has the No Biz edit of Anybody Seen My Baby for download on the HOT STUFF page at IORR. Just do a search for Urban Steel's MP3 and FLAC collection. If you don't want a download, it was on a promo CD single of Anybody Seen My Baby, but be warned, there were quite a few variations issued so finding the one with that version as opposed to remixes is not as easy as it sounds.

i can't believe it. i never knew that this was actually the rocky dijon who played percussion with the stones. i just thought someone was clever enough to use it as a name here

Its the latter, not the former. I am many things, but a great percussionist is not one of them. My real name is Bill Maynard. Disappointing I know, but then the real Rocky Dijon had a different name, too.

you got me. i went back reading some stuff you posted and it looked like things only someone who worked with the stones would know
