The 2011 flat transfer brings back some clarity and balance. But the best version I've listened to is the Japanese vinyl reissue from 1979 (ESS-63003).

Funny how it sounds like a 90's house track. Maybe this kind of retro vibe is trending now.

I used to be #6, looking for those rare japanese Maxi CD... Now I'm more #4 I think. But with streaming services I don't care that much about getting physical releases of every tracks and their variant.

QuoteNashvilleBlues Quoteliddas QuoteBig Al I find Andrew Watt’s production to be popish and contemporary Blame my daughters, but I am quite exposed to contemporary pop music. Well I can hardly remember any guitar driven pop songs charting on spotyfy, forget songs with bum notes, a real drummer, etc etc, C HD is very meaty, bouncy and punchy.

So far to me the stand out tracks are living by the sword and mess it up but all are excellent. Subtle work on the backing vocals of many songs.

Come on, I don't mean to dismiss the rest of the album... It just sounds like an old Stones track and maybe that's why they had Bill play on it.

QuoteBlueranger Quotekowalski At last a song that sounds like the good old Stones - they should have recorded the whole album with Bill ! You must have some ears of wonder. Bill is quite low in the mix… Try the HD version. You can clearly hear Bill's bass bouncing the track off.

No new album since 2005? Hard for me to not count in the 4 "bonus" albums we got meanwhile, the blues album and the countless archival live releases... Happy with anything the Stones decide to give us, "new" or not.

Quotestonesman87 I've listened to a number of grabs from the tracks at I can't get over how awful the sound is. It's so thin, like somebody's turned up the treble and turned off the bass. That's a perfect description of youtube audio quality. The CD sounds much better in comparison. The mix may be a matter of taste but what surprised me is how clearly the bass

Quote24FPS Sticky Fingers through Flashpoint are available as flat transfers on SHM CDs. Beware that Steel Wheels and Flashpoint are not strictly "flat transferts". They were somehow digitally remastered before being released in 2015.

There's a long version (something like 10 minutes?) floating around... They should release a deluxe album of ER, that would be the real deal IMO... a lot of cool things were recorded during these sessions.
