Absolutely love them, and to echo posts above, they continue to release superb music. Between James' sublime solo album last year, 'Even in Exile', and the elegiac, captivating new Manics opus, 'Ultra Vivid Lament', 33 years into their career, they've proven to be an exceptional band. Like Big Al, I was aware of them and interested during their 90s reign, 'Go

QuoteWorriedAboutYou I am enjoying the hell out of this release. Same; absolutely loving the bonus tracks. These 9, plus the 3 from GHS (the wonderful Criss Cross, plus All the Rage & Scarlet), I compiled as an album for the ipod and playlist on YouTube. A 12-track "new" album full of high quality material.

Really enjoying the bonus disc. I'm so used to hearing tracks like Its a Lie and Fast Talking on bootleg that it is jarring to hear them with new vocals. It's a Lie was always an absolute favourite, delighted it was chosen to be part of this set. Will take time to get used to it with the added overruns and new vocals. Overall, a quality collection.
Forum: Tell Me

Three of my favourite outtakes from the 70s are Its a Lie/Fiji Jim/Fast Talking. The snippets seem to display new vocals on all three. Looking forward very much to hear them but hope some of the original vox are still in place. Wembley '82; snippets sound good. I love the sound, tempo and manic energy of '81/'82. Hampton and Leeds simply rock! Seattle/Houston '81 on YouTube

The Flashpoint & Steel Wheels mini-LP SHM-CD, Japan issue, released December 2015 - do they have the CD booklets included? I like the photos of the band included in the original Flashpoint issue, cannot seem to find info on the booklets on these Japanese 2015 issues.

Much love and much respect Charlie. That amazing sound; the jazz influenced swing, the groove that powered the greatest rock'n'roll band, is as captivating now as it was for any of the last six decades People will be dancing to Charlie's irresistible voodoo drums for many years to come. Cannot believe he has departed.We love you Charlie.

Quoterebelhipi QuoteIrelandCalling4 Diff in price for TY 2-CD set and the 4-CD is quite something. 2 CD 16.99; 4 CD (incl pic disc and 124 page book) 130.99! That is 113 Euro extra for 2 extra CDs, picture disk and the book! Yes i agree. Im not a vinyl guy. I want to buy it but i cant justify paying 113euros for a copy of the wembley show. I probably will so same as with Goats Head Soup

Sucking in the Seventies is my favourite Stones compilation. Like above, love the sequencing, the inclusion of then-rare tracks, and even the edits. The Hot Stuff edit in particular, distilled that killer groove into 4 glorious minutes (full version equally magic obviously). I add the Miss You 12" mix to the ipod version of SITS, and it fits the mood perfectly. Whip is savage live ve

Always been a favourite; instrumentally, vocally, wonderful stuff. Along with the lowdown paranoid funk of 'Fingerprint File' and the Latin tinged 'Time Waits', these three 6 minute plus tracks, along with the title track, were four too quality standouts on the album.

Have loved this one since first listening. 1994, beginning of my fandom, purchased the albums 1968-1972, followed by GHS on vinyl, then Black and Blue. That wonderful album cover, to the exotic sounds contained - hard funk, reggae, soul, jazz, and cool, spare rock'n'roll. Love every track on it, even Cherry Oh Baby. I recall reading material on some of the albums' admirers: Izzy

QuoteRockman ‘Brown Sugar’ adds irrefutable evidence to the case for The Rolling Stones as the greatest rock n’ roll band of all time. And I do mean all time, for it seems more and more unlikely with each passing year that we’ll ever see anyone even close to their like again. You could just as easily point at anything The Stones recorded from ‘Jumping Jack Flash’ up to Exile On Main St - and I wo

Quotepeoplewitheyes Still In Love! What a beautifull tune. Haunting piano/guitar motiff, Jaggs and Keef yelling raw into the mic. Who else loves this one? Anything else we know about it? Love it! Had of course heard the other versions available on previous boots, and always loved the melody. This version is a pleasure to have. Great stuff indeed

Always loved this one, to echo your thoughts Gaz, Sugar Blue is wonderful on it. I thought this would have made SG deluxe, as well as another gem I never tire of, "I Need You".

Was loving your upload of the tracks on YouTube; thankfully we all still have the download. Hopefully this does mean the possibility of a box set of outtakes may actually have merit.

Day 3 of going through this material, and it is an amazing journey! So many of these songs are high quality and do display that creativity alive and well even into latter years. Thank you so much to everyone involved in getting this to us. Greatest bootleg release. So much stuff to enjoy and revel in. How cool is "She's doing her thing"? Utterly charming psych pop whimsy

QuoteHairball QuoteIrelandCalling4 Is Dogshit really 1982? Sounds like DW era. Either way, great stuff indeed. I'm not a boot expert, and not sure how accurate this info. is, but found this on bootlegpedia.com regarding two versions: One from France, 1982, and another version from New York, 1983. Someone else here can probably confirm accuracy. Thanks for that Hairball. Liste

QuoteNilsHolgersson I like me some Dog Shit That is brilliant! Not bluesy or groovy Stones, but as pop and anthemic as they have done. I definitely thought the title referred to Ronnie's Pretty Beat Up. Listened to 10 or so tracks thus far, enjoying all! 'Desperate Man' - what a wonderful song. What a gift, 50 of these and perhaps more to come Is Dogshit really 1982

Very few tracks the lads have made would qualify for that genre. Yacht rock, even the name conjures up sterile soulless 80s gated reverb madness! Perhaps one or two from Steel Wheels, that's about it. Agreed on Kayak rock With only one paddle what can you do!

The incomprehensible part, at least in Ireland, is the unquestioned, seemingly infallible nature of how cases are collated. No questions, analysis, or debate, is allowed and altering viewpoints are not aired on RTE/TV3. The case numbers are collated purely as a result of the RT-PCR test.
