Pull up a chair, pop on your headphones – 50 tracks deep, this might take a while.įor clarity from the covers, the date listed after the song title is the one claimed by the bootlegger, I’ve placed the best guess and the track timing after each description. I’ll attempt to sort between what we’re listening to in this review and it’s ‘working’ title, however, the forums are your best place for a more dedicated and specific detailing of the studio sessions, should you require.

This release heralds the first time in a while that the the bootleggers have beaten the heads and got their wares out first and, damn, what a cache this is – If you’re a light water Stones fan, you’ll be unawares of what most of these songs are, if you’re a deep-end Stones fan, you’ll no doubt be thrilled at the contents as some of these titles have only been hinted at over on Nzentgraf, Nico’s exhaustive efforts to catalogue the Stones inventory and some of them have popped up here, confusingly, with different titles. The bootleggers caught up quickly in issuing these sets – sometimes remastering their captures – on silverdisk. I’ll preface this review in full by stating – BUY IT! A bold request but having heard this set a couple of times now, I believe it’s more than substantiated and deserved of a spot on your shelves.Īccording to a list on the IORR forum, we have been spoiled for releases from the Rolling Stones as of the past few years – Certainly not so much officially unless you count the various live releases, the BBC sessions, greatest hits and THAT, admittedly, very good single as gold, but unofficially, we’ve had Foxes in the Boxes, The Art Collins Tapes, the sessions from 2002, all of which popped up, relatively unannounced on the internet.
