The review


Here is volume 3 of the recent release of Suck & Blow updated version from Captain Acid, this is about 1 minute longer and features known tracks together as well as some Montauk Rehearsals and one official track with Alexis Korner that was recorded at that period. As usual some tracks come from better sources, like Shame, Shame, Shame and the sources for tracks 2,4 were changed, using Session tapes from 74-75 (all remastered again). The tracks here are in better sound, thanks to the effort to locate better versions, and like in the previous attempt some are great like Slave II, Fool To Cry II and I Got A Letter II, plus the other Montauk songs like Little Richards Jenny, Jenny and the instrumental Shame, Shame, Shame studio versions, heard here for the first time from the Stones.
