I prefer audio over video - I don't sit down and watch a DVD too often, so I WOULD have voted for the "Some Girls Deluxe CD" - but due to the disappointment over the "Exile Bonus CD" - I'm fearing that SG Deluxe might be a disappointment, as well. So I vote for the DVD.
what was dissapointing?
Jagger's new vocals was disappointing. Then again; I understand that something needed to be done, as an "instrumental bonus disc" would be boring for most people. And of course; it was even more disappointing when the songs were (most probably) BRAND new - not just Jagger's vocals - like "Following the River" and "Plundered My Soul".....allthough the later one was a quite allright song; it didn't belong together with any Exile tracks - as it has a total different vibe than the songs they actually recorded back then. Mick's new "affected singing" are lightyears away from the way he sang back then.
Dancing In The Light and So Divine were also to forget-worthy; I actually enjoy the original instrumentals quite a lot better.
Title5 was a Satanic Majesties outtake....had nothing to do with Exile, that one, either!
I like Pass The Wine though - and the alternate versions of Loving Cup and All Down The Line - plus Good Time Women
Another disappointing thing about "Exile Deluxe" was that the "remix" of the original album was a downgrade of the original mix. The new mix didn't suit Exile.
