There has to be thousands of songs, sketches of songs, outtakes, and various versions we've never heard.
Consider that just publicly through bootleg, there are hundreds of demos from every album. The Stones used to do sometimes up to 100 takes of a single song and the initial could end up very different from the final.
Consider how much material in the 1967-1970 period they compiled - possibly hundreds of songs, and hundreds of versions of such. We didn't even know about the Rock N' Roll Circus version of Ruby Tuesday until it leaked.
Then consider all the stuff they did during their rebirth of creativity from say 1977 - 1983.
Or going back earlier, earlier takes of songs. For example, the acoustic version of Sympathy that was the initial version. The early versions of Honky Tonk Women pre Mick Taylor joining, we have one demo but there might be dozens of alterations. Look how many versions of Brown Sugar in various versions from 1969 through 1971 circulate.
We know factually there are dozens of takes of Beggar's Banquet and LIB songs, and songs in early states from LIB sessions that would end up on Exile.
We know there's a couple of hundred hours of Rock N' Roll Circus footage including alternate takes, and numbers that were rehearsed but not officially played.
Or, shows like MSG 1969 we know exist in 1969 but haven't been released.
There has to be thousands of things from the studio and that exist in their vaults we've never heard ranging from sketches to full fledged songs, and the Stones could easily hire someone to get this all out there and monetize it - but they don't.
My question is, why?
