RE: RE: RE: RE: Tattoo You Deluxe

2000 Man = There were no off mic vocals on "Love You Too Much," "No Spare Parts," etc. The bootleg versions of those tracks at their latest stages feature vocal performances from Mick that are outstanding and better than what he redid for the Some Girls bonus disc. Obviously, it's not the case with every single song, and so he needed to go back in and redo his vocals for some of the cuts, but I just think he went overboard.

The Exile reissue was a completely different thing because all of the non-alternate version tracks had no vocals. Mick had to do new vocals on those. Otherwise they would've been just instrumental tracks.

As much as I enjoy both bonus discs, and play them regularly, I still feel that the Some Girls bonus disc was a lost opportunity (way too much stuff left off - especially since it's apparent that they are never going to release a box set of outtakes), and that both bonus discs would've benefitted from having Mick's voice not sound as though it was recorded for the Bigger Bang album. I just think that one of the things that makes the Stones classic albums unique is how Mick's vocals are mixed lower than the guitars. I think it's that important, and it's the major reason why most of the studio albums of the past 35 years have had an element of disappointment for me. They just don't sound right to me. It hasn't been the songwriting, but the way the albums have been mixed.

But that's just how I feel as an individual Stones fan. I totally understand how it might be a meaningless issue for some other fans of group.
