From Some Girls deluxe Version. Many say that Some Girls is the last great Rolling Stones album. Tattoo You, which was comprised of outtakes from several previous recording sessions going back to Goats Head Soup (Rolling Stones, 1973), was released as an excuse for the 1981 tour rather than a fully-conceived album.
The context is late-seventies New York, from which it draws much of its inspiration, punk music, disco and Keith Richards’ heroin habit.
This is Disc 2----bonus cuts from the original Some Girls sessions that have been bootlegged in various forms over the years
It's the Stones' great lost country album. It's been sitting in the archives for 30 years. Songs like "Don't Be a Stranger" or "I Love You Too Much" are standard-issue Stones that aren't far from the more formulaic music the band would routinely settle for on Steel Wheels and beyond.
