The review
Subtitled Still Trawling The Vaults 1964-1997 this double album presents some of the most recent Stones outtakes that have surfaced, together with a couple of tracks for the first time out on a bootleg. The last 2 tracks in fact feature Keith Richards on guitar, Buster Poindexter (David Johansen) on vocals, Delbert Mc Clinton on harmonica and vocals, Joe Delia on piano, Brian Kooni on bass and Tony Machine on drums. These tracks are covers of the original Jimy Reed and Ike Turner songs, coming from an audience recording, but it must be said that in order to accommodate them Watermelon Man was cut to just 3.09 minutes. Packaging is fantastic with inside of the gatefold cover filled with photos and track by track sources.
