Anyone notice how much the credits for the original album differ from those on the new version. Quite a few discrepancies, the most glaring of which are the credits for 'Happy' - they seem to have listed the credits for 'Sway' or something instead ('Paul Buckmaster/Strings'. Eh?)

No mention of Sunset Sound studios in the list of locations either. And its still a bit vague as to where Taylor and Jagger did their overdubs (I'd read London and also Paris, but theres no mention of a studio in Paris and the only London studio mentioned is Olympic, where they recorded in 1969-70..didn't it close last year?)

i got the target fan pack with the rarities disc and tee shirt and guitar pick...
oddly the CR case, is made for two discs... I downloaded the remaster off demonoid... tell you the truth, I wanted to see if it was better than my 94, before or even if i plunk the cash down... i had flacs of the extras, so maybe i just wanted a new shirt....


I discovered that those FLACS are not legit, or at the very least poorly ripped and converted.

The sound on those compared to the actual release is quite bad.

I put the new one on and it just blew those away.



did you DL the DVD version or just the 2 disc version...? I may need to go get the single disc remaster myself now... just to have a good version to a/b to my 1994...


anyone like the mastering of the 2010 over the 1994? anyone here actually give a shit about mastering... haha!!!


I had download the 2 disc version.

I find the new to have a bit more volume, just a little improvement.

None of the Universal remasters really improve much over 1994 versions. That's just my take on it.

Mick says it was "a little studio in London" in the Pierre Robert interview.

The colors are all wrong for the vinyl sleeve and inserts. Also the clarity isn't the same. Compared to the original, this looks horrible. The front and back covers to the book are cheap cardboard. The text inside the book is too small. Or I must need glasses. 4 postcards instead of 12??? Thanks.

But get me to talking about the audio qualities of the vinyl. Jesus my Lord in Heaven. What a beautiful gift!!!! This is the BEST sound I've ever heard from Exile, be it CD or the original vinyl.

Best Buy is on back order for 1 to 2 weeks online.  I called the stores in my area around 7pm last night since I had to wait to get a ride, and one store had one copy left.  Got it.  We have three big Best Buys within 15 miles of where I live, four more on the Missouri side.  They flew out of the doors yesterday according to what the clerk told me.

Yes...they are at the store...I got mine yesterday (w/o the t shirt) but they are all there...
They are on the same shelves as the single CD paks...everything is crammed into a small box about 4 inches deep.
it took me about 5 minutes to find it since there was no large display or any fanfare of a sorts..
I could barely find the CD section as it was...

We saw the t-shirt/guitar pick set in a Target in suburban NY yesterday morning, but they only had a couple left. The stores did get a few, though. Good luck!

I went to Target yesterday and picked up the rarities edition w/ t-shirt. That disc is smokin! My only gripe is they should've included more songs. I really like Keith's elegantly wasted version of SS! Now I just need the single EOM cd and I'm shitting in tall cotton for now. Can't wait to see the remastered version of L&G later this year

I got the deluxe edition with the interview disc from Best Buy yesterday. I didn't get to play it yesterday because I had a busy day. Anyway, Today was a bit dreary here, so I felt I needed to give the CDs a spin. I really liked the new songs and the original album is still classic, maybe a little louder compared to the Virgin remaster.

Yep. I had four of them on pre-order and they're all delayed. I cancelled two and went on Amazon and got the big boy for $136. Fuck it, ya only live once. I still have two on order for friends. What a gyp!

This video is just sick. With all this reissue stuff, I feel like the rehearsal is going on now.

Rehearsing Shake Your Hips in Montreux. Look at Mick Taylor, Watts, and Wyman driving the rhythm. this is just insanely good.

"Stones in exile" just shown on Aussie tv. Well, yeah, it was ok. Went for 65mins. Seems very heavily cut - though i cant see it being a 3 hr dvd! There was a lot of new footage disguised as candid and Robert Frank footage. Some stuff was even from ABC Aussie tv show GTK from 73!.

Most glaring example of "new" (IE: pretend) footage was when the band went to Sunset Studios. They mentioned the backing singers coming in, and there is footage of 2 black singers around a mic. Well, fellas, that was filmed in 2010. They tried to make it 1972, but it wasnt. Apart from the fact the retro fashions just were not 100% accurate, the glaring fact is the actressess were NOT the real singers. Venetta Fields has lived in Oz since 1977, and she has a very distinctive profile. She wasnt in the footage! And think of it, why would anyone film backing singers? In 1972? And why would that footage exist in 2010? Well, it didnt. they made it up.

And no mention of Dr. John.

But biggest omition was any interview or band credit to Jim Price. From my readings of the EXILE sessions, Price was more or less responsible for much of the arrangements. EXILE is as much as his album as it is Keith's.

But even more odd, is no mention AT ALLL of Billy Preston!

Yeah, Kilroy, I'd say you went just a wee bit crazy. I always knew you were my kinda guy!  Smiley

Anyway, like I said, I got the super-deluxe package (which at $136 should blow yer nose, yer mind, and anything else yer imagination can come up with...and I can come up with a few...) - BUT, my two biggest complaints about the packaging are:

1. The obvious one, which is they should have given us the "new" releases on a vinyl disc as well as CD; and

2. They shoulda stuck a fuckin' CD case in there so you can carry the two discs around without resorting to using yer "Best of Joey Bagadonuts" case or whatever. I mean, I don't think a tiny little plastic case woulda broke the Stones bank. (I refuse to call them "jewel cases" - another example of trying to turn shit into gold in the music-buying public's "minds"). But that's just me.

But hey, as a great man once said, 'WE MUST WIN GROSS!"

just saw "stones in exile"

fantastic

mick at the olympic studios -  "boring" - he sets out his distate for nostalgia and sentimentality (see where johnny lydon picked up some cues)

but i got a  fresh appreciation of how much of a wrench it must have been to move... no more HP sauce!! ...in the names of all the gods at once how did they survive!! ...bobby  had the right attitude...st.tropez rocks - girls and drugs and rock and roll

my only disappointment - "Let it Loose" didn't get a hearing
