QuoteGasLightStreet There are plenty of wonky songs left off that they fortunately didn't finish, like the Kenny Loggins Danger Zone wannabe song Honest Man. ... but... but... but Honest Man is the very best of all not-finsihed VL-tracks.

Quotedrbryant QuoteHMS They only hired MT to humilate him. They tried to do the same with Bill, but he didnt need the money so bad. Utter nonsense. Midnight Rambler was basically structured and arranged to allow him to shine. By the end of the tour in Europe and Asia, the song had expanded to 15+ minutes. Check out Roskilde or Stockholm or Auckland from that tour. I’ll never forget those

Quotekeefriffhard4life what "unused sketches" did you hear then. I've heard about 6 top notch songs from those sessions that were not put on any album or single. imo VL should have been a double album with each cd about 50 minutes long I´ve heard Brew,Stew,Ressidue. A 100-minute version of VL? Hard to bear... it is way too long already...But I admit that the b-sides are dynamite

QuoteGasLightStreet Fortunately the music buying society and intelligent people don't care when the songs for an album were recorded and released. You're the only one and, fortunately, that means absolutely zero in reality. ...i would not take this for granted. A lot of people care and not all of them are fools. In fact it would be sad if people wouldnt care.

if they stick to the idea of releasing CD/DVD/BR-combinations it becomes very difficult with anything prior to 1981. Either there is no footage or it is of (very) low qualtiy.

QuoteSomeGuy I find the issue of whether TY is a regular studio album or a compilation album fairly uninteresting really. It is interesting for many reasons. Most of all it is necessary to konw that TY isn´t a "regular studio album" for judging their development as artists. TY simply just does not represent the Stones as artists in 1981 (date of release) - Undercover does represent

The information provided on the last 2 pages makes it even more clear that TY isn´t a regular studio-album but a compilation of polished up old tracks (some more some less). The only way one could consider TY a "regular studio-album" would be if the Stones (everyone of them not just Mick) had re-recorded all of the old stuff, not using anything old from the 1972-75 stuff. Then it would

Very strange that the re-broadcast was never bootlegged... Some people are sitting on their tapes probably. I dont know of any radio/TV-broadcast that hasnt been bootlegged rather sooner than later. It´s a mystery.

Quotedcba QuoteGasLightStreet Hearts For Sale, Almost Hear You Sigh and Slipping Away are probably the stand out tracks. Thx for mentioning HFS! Terrifying is also good. Hearts For Sale maybe is Steel Wheel´s strongest track. But Terrifying... is pure 80s crap imo and has studpid lyrics. And it was awful boring live.

Honestly, what would another album of reheated leftovers like TY be good for? What should they say in excuse? "We tried to write new songs for years and years but we failed so we decided to rework songs we once thought of as not good enough to be released/completed." Why not an album of re-recordings of their greatest Hits backed by a 100-piece-orchestra - The Symphonic Rolling Stone
