Great video, best they have done in years. Seems to capture the mood of the time it was recorded, while being in the present day at the same time. Just beautiful tribute at the end as well.

I've never been afraid to knock them but I have to take back my criticism of their failure to market this in light of them having more important matters occupying their time and minds.

'Trouble's a-comin' was scheduled to be released as a single on Friday September 24th, when this package was announced in mid-August (see page 1 of this thread), so hopefully that's still on schedule.

I didnt actually know it was a cover until Mick introduced it the other night as a Chi-Lites song. The writer was Eugene Record, who was the band's lead singer. All I knew was that it was recorded in Nassau in early 1979 for 'Emotional Rescue'.

Here's the original from 1970. It was a b-side (the A-side 'Are You My Woman' was the song that had its horn riff sampled on Beyoncé's 'Crazy In Love')

It was also covered by Johnny Sayles in 1973 :

This was one of the songs I liked the most on the 3-CD outakes that came out a few months ago

(it'll be interesting to hear if theres been any further overdubs added for the official version), but it's a little disappointing to find out its not a lost Jagger/Richards gem. It does seem that most of the best finished outtakes in the Stones' vaults tend to be covers. I guess its true that for their own songs, the lyrics and vocals are around the last things to get finished, which is why so many of them sound half finished (and also why we havent got a career spanning boxed set of outtakes)

If someone saw fit to put it all together, theres a terrific Stones album of soul covers out there waiting to be unleashed.

Very well crafted tune. All the elements of broad base appeal and it stays in your head. Beat and electric rhythm make you wanna dance like a drunky monkey !!!
Great number to kick off a set and wake up a crowd. Draw off this song as inspiration to fabricate other trademark works.

YT review that gets it.

I vote we open with this.

Get it together

hopefully it grows on me, but my first reaction is, i'd much rather have the
"finished outtake" in better quality. these new vocals are *biting my tongue*

One good thing: I can't be disappointed in the upcoming sanitized versions of
"it's a lie" and "fiji jim". because i've already lost all hope...

I hope some or many will be there

I'll guess that a LOT of the tracks will be the same. Except ruined.

FUCK YOU, REVVY! Must you always be right?!?

A half hour later and i'm already weakening

already happily seeing it (and hearing it) more mick's way

the lyric video helps

Everybody is so divided
Misled and misguided
Nobody wants to see two points of view

Because we're living in a crazy system
Yeah what they will do with their wisdom yeah
Trouble's a coming
In more way's than one
Old Man Trouble, stay away from me

Quite a healthy contrast with what I immediately called mick's insincere,
intentionally crackpot lyrics for "easy sleazy" (i like dave grohl so hopefully
he learns from this how easily (sleazily) he's co-opted by any authority
figure that gives him a bit of recognition. He's a very good rocker with a
very good band. he shouldnt kiss so much ass)

We escaped from the prison walls
Open the windows and open the doors
it's easy easy
It's gonna be a garden of earthly delights
Yeah it's easy
Yeah easy, believe me
We're all headed back to paradise
Yeah easy, believe me

Catchy ear worm stuff here.
The Stones have not sounded this confident on a song since Start Me Up.

Just played it on a better system= wowed.
It sounds like a classic Stones song, vocals, lyrics, backing vocals. Great guitars, drums, hand claps. It's got it all! This tune is wonderful.
Instant classic, thanks.
I know my Stones shit.
You think I've just been postin' drivel for the last 25 years?
I've been waiting for this since Dirty Work.

Get it together bitches.
