Jolly good, lads!
When we last left Main St., we had been exiled with only early info on the upcoming May 18 reissue of the Rolling Stones "best" recording, Exile On Main Street.
-
Rolling Stone mag had listed only 3 bonus tracks, which we here at the PCC thought bollocks.
-
But then last week, the website Allmusic broke the new news that the '10 Exile would have a "whopping 10" extra, unissued tracks from the Exile sessions.
-
And now, it's official, plus more: Stones' music label Universal told the NYTimes that not only
will
there be the 10 unreleased songs, but also alternatives of Loving Cup and Soul Survivor.-
Regarding the outtakes, the Times' story uses the word, "like," in its description which may mean-we said may- or indicate that there will be more than two alts and outs on this, now 38 year old anniversary.
(Well, we can dream.)
-
Unfortunately-always one with music releases-it looks like we will just
have to wait for another day, er, year, decade, etc., for those fabulous
live recordings of Exile tracks from the 1972 tour.
-
But at least we appear to be getting a top-shelf reissue of Exile, to round out the Rolling Stones Records latest batch of do-overs. So, we're happy.
