It was produced by none other than John Lennon, though he didn't play on it. A lot of famous musicians played on it, including Al Kooper, Jack Bruce, and Harry Nilsson. The final song not by the Stones is "Too Many Cooks (Spoil the Soup)." This was done in 1973 by Mich Jagger, but wasn't officially released until it made it onto "The Very Best of Mick Jagger" in 2007. This one features prominent lead vocals by the Stones' lead vocalist Mick Jagger, so it also sounds very much like a Stones song to me. Another song, "I Can Feel the Fire," is the version from the Wood solo album ("I've Got My Own Album to Do"). Except two of the versions of those songs included here, "Am I Grooving You" and "Sure the One You Need," were performed live by the First Barbarians, a short lived group with both Ronnie Wood and Stones guitarist Keith Richards. I've included three songs from Ronnie Wood's 1974 solo album, from right before he joined the Stones. But in my opinion, they sure sound like them. Luckily, there are some high quality bootleg versions of still unreleased outtakes from 19, like "Fast Talking, Slow Walking," "Drift Away," and "Living in the Heart of Love." "Drift Away" is a cover of the hit song by Dobie Gray.įour of the songs here aren't actually Rolling Stones songs.
One of them, "Scarlet," is actually a 1974 outtake, so they stretched things to include it. There are only three songs here from that. Unfortunately, it missed releasing a lot of quality outtakes. Thus I've had to combine material from the two albums to make up one solid stray tracks album.Įarlier in 2020, a deluxe version of "Goats Head Soup" was released. Then there were even fewer for the next couple of years, until a flood of material leading up to the "Some Girls" album in 1978. So the number of quality outtakes was declining in 19. Note that this deals with both the era of "Goats Head Soup" and also their next album, 1974's "It's Only Rock and Roll." In my opinion, the Stones got distracted by money and fame in the mid-1970s. But I kept collecting material and eventually realized I had enough material for a stray tracks album from that time period. So I considered making an alternate version of it by replacing the weaker songs. The next album they released was "Goats Head Soup" in 1973. The last album I posted was from the "Exile on Main Street" ere ending in 1972. I've been working my way through their career chronologically.
It's been a long time since I've posted a stray tracks album from the Rolling Stones.
