The review

Once more tracks coming from the Stones Paris sessions which have been among the most productive in the Stones career, especially the first ones held at the end of 1977 and at the beginning of 1978 which originated Some Girls, the album of the band’s return to basic rock with some attempts to other musical genres. Disc One starts with A Different Kind and Never Make You Cry followed by Fiji Jim, Jimmy Reed’s Shame Shame Shame, Never Stop which was the first attempt at Start Me Up, Covered in Bruises, another version of Fiji Jim, Some Girls and Just Because I Told You. Disc Two has 2 versions of Just My Imagination, You Win Again sung by Mick, Miss zyou early instrumentalpart and a nice blues, Broken Head Blues. Next is the famous 1st version of It’s Only Rockk’n Roll featuring David Bowie that has nothing to do here and an early take of Start Me Up called Echo version that has a catchy nice back up chorus.
