I rate the bonus disc highly, but it lacks the magic of a genuine Stones LP. A Bigger Bang was no masterpiece, but in hindsight, there are some very strong numbesr featured - 'Rain Fall Down' being the pick of the bunch, IMO.

It's hard to rate this bonus disc of outtakes alongside a studio release. I alos have stated on this messageboard time and time again that I feel A Bigger bang is brilliant so that is the easy winner in my book.

ABB brilliant ?! There is nothing brilliant about it, the songwriting is average, with Rain Fall Down and Brilliant Mistake possibly standing out, but the worst part is the playing, really beneath them, mostly by Keith's fault I reckon, not a decent guitart part in view. At least the bonus disc doesn't have these problems.
