Last year, I tried to collect all the known alternate versions of the songs on Some Girls. I doubt I got them all, though. And they may not be in the best available versions.

Has anyone ever done (or tried to do) a full set of alternate/earlier versions of the songs on Some Girls (or Tattoo You)?

To start off a possible project, here is my SG set (all mp3s):

Thx for the compilation, love these sorts of things.

Silkcut did a serious Some Girls compilation, including outtakes, several years ago on Dime. unfortunately I didn't have the broadband speed to download it at the time

I'm pretty sure I got all the stuff he was uploading. I made a chronological list of what he was sharing. That is probably where my SG list started.

From text file, it looks like he upped these:

Paris Outtakes Vol.1 (Some Girls demos/outtakes - part one)
Paris Outtakes Vol.2 (Some Girls demos/outtakes - part two)
Paris Results (Some Girls demos/outtakes - part three)
Paris Results Vol.2 (Some Girls demos/outtakes - part four)
Better Results/More Music & Improved Sound (Some Girls demos/outtakes - part five)
Sheep Dip Blues (Some Girls demos/outtakes - part six)
More Fast Numbers (Some Girls demos/outtakes - part seven)
All Them Women (Some Girls demos/outtakes - part eight)
Early Stitches (Tattoo You outtakes and demos)
The Emotional Rescue Sessions (2-CD-set, early Japanese bootleg)
All Mixed Up (outtakes and rehearsals 1978 - 1985)
Undercover Outtakes (Rogue RG-02)
Chainsaw (Undercover Outtakes Vol.II)
From Paris to L.A. (1978 studio outtakes)
From Rags To Excess...Black And Blue Two (B&B outtakes)

finally you put a order in all these tracks .. thanks

a question ... the numbering is taken from the Nico'site?

From the individual releases, though they (or someone else) probably got them from Nico.

I think "When The Whip Comes Down II" is not version II.

Cause ,by Nico,this version (II) must be an extended version of official with background voice.


- When The Whip Comes Down I (MJ/KR) -long version, no backing vocals

- When The Whip Comes Down II (MJ/KR) -extended IV

- When The Whip Comes Down III (MJ/KR)

- When The Whip Comes Down IV (MJ/KR) - ‘Some Girls’-version release.
