The review

The third volume in the series presents all known outtakes from 1978 through 1983, however missing the recently disseminated Undercover outtakes, starting with the usual Pathe Marconi tracks on Disc One which for the most part consists of the rehearsals for Saturday Night Live, coming from video recordings, in mono. Disc Two features what could be called the Best of the 70s Outtakes, well known tracks that have been featured on many albums, that any Stones collector still loves. The remaining Discs feature more or less known outtakes, with the exception of Disc Three where for some bizarre reason the official version of Emotional Rescue is included. Let s Go Steady Again II is the version with three guitars. It Won t Be Long is a different song from the one that was officially released on A Bigger Bang. Disc Four presents many alternate versions including the long version of Emotional Rescue and four takes of No Use In Crying. On Disc Five we got three versions of We Had It All, with or without harmonica and a more finished take. Disc Six presents among other outtakes Let s Do It Right II which comes from Munich sessions in mid 75, clearly a leftover from the previous box, plus a bunch of tracks recorded in late 1980 two of them without sax (Neighbours and Waiting For A Friend); weird is this take of Tops with Jagger singing in falsetto different lyrics. It is also interesting No Use In Crying with additional piano by Nicky Hopkins. The last three songs com from the 1981 sessions and feature different sax played by Sonny Rollins.

On Disc Seven we have I Love You Too Much V an instrumental version of the original riff recycled and also known as Run And Take, while on Disc Eight the 14 minutes version of I Think I m Going mad has Keith Richards s singing. On Disc Nine there is only a snippet of Flirty (here called Forty) which lasts few seconds as well as other Undercover outtakes recently released, missing the lately released stuff like Pull Over as well as Part Of The Night. More from the same sessions on Disc en where stand up the two takes of Eliza Upchink and Show Me A Woman, the embryonic version of Tie You Up, pretty pointless the inclusion of Feel On Baby official version at the end. On Disc Eleven we get a version of Too Much Blood without horns, while on Twelve all 3 takes of Stop That. Disc Thirteen finally has many officially released versions, quite unnecessary.

This box presents again a nice collection of alternate takes and outtakes, unfortunately marred by some useless duplications (as well as snippets of truncated takes of the same outtake) while it is quite weird is that in 13 discs they did not find room for any alternate version of Start Me Up.
