I like "Lies" too, but now feel it's a bit redundant with "Respectable." "I Need you" or perhaps a different outtake would have fleshed out the album (side) a bit. Not a big deal, just a thought with 30 years hindsight.

I never understood why they didn't finish "I Can't Help It (Love You Too Much)" since it's such a unique song with both Mick and Keith on vocals and it had such great potential. I always thought it would have made Some Girls a much better album had it been there in place of "Lies," which was a rather week attempt at punk and would have been better suited as a b-

The wording doesn't say it's an alternate version of the track, rather it just says previously unreleased which is the case of all 10 bonus tracks. It may just be the track included in the set being made available a week in advance to throw the hardcore fans a bone and create additional buzz.

Remember the label the Stones recently singed with and that is re-releasing Exile is NBC/Universal. The Jimmy Fallon show in on NBC. So this is obviously a part of the advertising campaign for the new release by the label. And the initial release said the documentary would air on American network TV (NBC). It's obviously going to be on late night due to its content. I find it encouraging the

Unfortunately, many people are only familiar with the crappy MI movies and never watched the TV show. I remember reading that Greg Morris walked out of the original movie in 1996, shortly before he died of cancer, because he thought it was crap. How could they make Phelps a traitor?

To this day I've never understood why so many consider this album sounding the death knell of the band (my first album was SG when I was 10 years old). I remember Dave Marsh only giving it one star out of five in the Rolling Stone Record Guide. While GHS is a flawed album, it's still one of my favorite Stones albums. Winter is a lost classic and Criss Cross is a great outtake if you hav

I got mine locked in at $87.99 on Amazon. I'm a regular customer with them and these prices always jump up and down. Their pre-order may have been doing better thane expected and there is a shortage at the moment causing the price to spike. Once they are assured of getting more product in time for the street date the price will probably drop again. It opened at $129.99, then fell to $98.

It doesn't appear this song is amongst the bonus tracks. I'm hoping against hope that it's either a hidden track on the CD, or that they surprise us with a re-issue of the flexi-single packed inside the vinyl re-release.

Quoteskipstone Specifically, when 'they' say B-side they mean the one track, which is what I was referring to. I know they have released more than one non-LP track for B-sides but it's been very few. Most of them are LP tracks for the B-side - not B-sides. For the past 21 years (1989-present) the Stones have released 19 singles to the public. Only one of them contains an album t

All good points regarding the acoustic version. The only outtake version I've heard is definitely incomplete. Btw, how interesting to have a new single that includes (perhaps a newly recorded) Mick Taylor. The first since "Waiting on a Friend."

I was disappointed when I saw they had left the acoustic version of ADTL off of the reissue. But it's great news to see it's going to show up as a B-side. I wonder if there will be a CD single also. Perhaps more of the outtakes will show up as B-sides. April 20th and May 18th can't come soon enough!!!
