REVIEW:

The second volume in the series presents all known outtakes from 1974 through 1978, starting with some sessions from Rotterdam, actually there is only two tracks recorded in 1974 ( It s Only Rock n Roll and Drift Away II, this being the more developed version from Newbury) all the rest coming from 1975 onwards, so a change in title would be proper. On Disc One tracks 3-6 feature Wayne Perkins, tracks 7-9 Jeff Beck and the rest Ron Wood, piano is played by Billy Preston, quality varies the Rotterdam stuff being quite average. Disc Two presents 9 tracks from Musicland Studios in 1975 where the bulk of Black and Blue album was built in excellent sound output (however the first take of Start Me Up called Never Stop comes from Paris 77), plus 3 rehearsals tracks from Montauk (Long Island) where the band prepared its 1975 US Tour, these last songs are good sounding too with Billy Preston piano upfront. Disc Three opens with 2 more tracks from Montauk followed by a Clapton song that was recorded in late June 75 with the Stones in attendance after one show at the Madison Square Gardens in New York; with this disc we are delving into Pathe Marconi stuff which will be covered through Disc Nine. Unfortunately what is called on the booklet All About You (Train Song) is not the very first take of this tune, that was instrumental, but take no.2 recorded in 1980. More alternate Some Girls tracks on Disc Four, as well as on the other Discs up to Nine with more outtakes, which are anyway well known to collectors, however is quite annoying to have on about any disc tracks at the end not reported in the booklet and this careless attitude affects packaging rates; I is however possible they are not listed because they are almost all officially released. Disc Six for instance has Petrol Blues at the end where drums are played by Stu. A couple of extra tracks on Disc Seven too, Keep Up Blues and

Don’t Be A Stranger. On Disc Eight there is the very first instrumental version of Black Limousine under the title Broken Head Blues, originally recorded at Munich in late 1973 featuring Giorgio Moroder on bass. The two extra tracks here come from the 2011 sessions for the De Luxe version of Some Girls where they reworked songs originally recorded in 1978. The Version of Claudine on Disc Nine is he shortened version that came out on Some Girls De Luxe, on this Disc we have four more tracks too again not listed in the booklet. Discs Ten-Thirteen have the well known Woodstock rehearsals except for the last four tracks on Disc Thirteen that together with Disc Fourteen has the 78 RCA sessions on, with the pointless inclusion of Tallahassee Lassie twice. A nice compilation with many mistakes and omissions in the accompanying booklet.
