The review

This new release does look indeed like a 1980s bootleg album, from the plain white cover with rubber stamped title to the wonderful multicoloured vinyl (but there is way to know which side it is, unless you play it); inside there is an insert which just names the songs on each side. The content consists of Stones outtakes through the years, allegedly coming from acetates, except for the last tracks on Side B. The 1962 excerpt comes from a Radio London broadcast from 26 May 86 when Chris Jagger played an acetate with Stones outtakes on air; the 1967 stuff should come from the Bell Sound acetate no.2 which was cut on September 15^th of that year.
