I do not think it is the Stones' strategy. It is more Eagle Rock who is figuring out what is releasable at low costs and might sell well. Of course they are listening to what people say. So I guess talking about San Jose 99, Shepherds Bush 99, Paris 1976, Leipzig 2003 and so on gives them an indication what might sell.

QuoteKRiffhard "...i think it would be nice to do new songs and go in a new direction with them." MJ New direction?! Fits the quote of Ron's son who said in mid 2016 he heard some of the new tracks and described them as "different".

Exactly the kind of reason it doesn't get released. It would contradict alienating fans and giving them what they want.

Quotefrankotero Why bother working on the other Tokyo concert when there are other things out there. Seems another wasted opportunity. What's new. Sorry about the cynicism but come on really. I get your point frankotero but as a hardcore Stones collector I am very happy to get shows in so much better quality than those old lossy 100th generation VHS sources we had until now. Of course I

Got the following confirmation from Ward Records: At this moment we only can tell you that “Live at Olympia 1995.07.03” and “Live in Japan Tokyo Dorm 1990.02.24” will be released on March 31.

I can confirm that Wardrecords is the official label that releases the Stones videos in Japan. They supply the stuff to amazon and all those other retailers. Ward also released a bonus CD of Sweet Summer Sun which had unreleased tracks of the first Hyde Park from 2013 on it. So I think the new releases are something to maximize profit by offering Japan-exclusive stuff.

On March 31st 2017 Wardrecords will release some special stuff in Japan: Tokyo Feb 24th 1990 - the camera test show for the common Feb 26th broadcast And some Stripped bonus which is labeled as 1995-07-03 which indicates that it is the Olympia, Paris show?! As this one was released as Totally Stripped bonus DVD this one is suspect. Maybe some fans from Japan now more?

Looking back on this great list you see that since the great Foxes in the Boxes torrents no further outtakes have released. Here is hope that in 2017 at least some new tracks or better tapes of circulating stuff might get released. What about the 6 hours of Black and Blue sessions or Bridges to Babylon sessions?

Quotegeorgelicks After the success of B&L, we can't be surprised if they record a volume 2 of blues covers, they can do anything they want, a new album with new songs maybe is not what 90% of the buying public wants from the Stones. It looks like Elton John was right about the Stones going back to the blues to be relevant again. Blues covers = short time on the studio, more album s
