Another snippet from the interview seems to suggest that for some reason Mick is being a bit tight-lipped about just how much new work WAS done on some of the leftovers. It could be more than what we'd hoped would have been necessary..and that the bonus disc may be a bit more of a 'Tattoo You'like project than an Exile one.
UNCUT gets to hear three songs that Jagger has unearthed ("Following The River", "Plunder My Soul" and "Sophia Loren"). However they sound suspiciously smooth for 'Exile' outtakes, and there's no mention of the first two in any Stones sessionography. It's hard to get a straight answer about where they originate. Keith assures me that they were recorded at Nellcote, but is vague. Charlie Watts explains that they only existed as instrumentals, so Jagger's vocals (and lyrics) are new. Jagger refuses to discuss when his vocals were added. "I can't tell you. It doesn't really matter, in a way", he smiles tightly. "As long as they sound good". Debates are sure to rage when 'Exile' is reissued in May.
