Anybody else check this out? The unreleased tracks definitely fit in with the rest of the album. Good Time Women in particular really hangs with it. But it's just an alternate version of Tumbling Dice, I believe.

the bonus tracks are real nice

but if you have an older version. keep it and just download the bonus tracks.

the mastering is horrible on the remaster

I didn't even listen to the remastered album, just the bonus tracks, so I don't know how bad it is. If they've just made it louder, and leveled the highs and lows with the mid-range, I wouldn't be surprised.

I guess I wasn't planning on throwing out my old copy anyway.

yeah the dynamic range is compressed and it's loud.

I have been absolutely obsessed with this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZg4Ai3Mq1o) for the past week and a half.
My jaw is agape at the thought that it's gone this long without being put out there on some album.

NOBODY sings a ballad like Mick. (y)

making things loud = not mastering

Yeah new vocals on that River tune though, which kinda sadly spoils it a little for me...I'm not sure why.

Plundered My Soul is absolute fucking class though.

Does the new Exile come with the postcards? I have the original postcards that were with the original release, they are worth $200 upwards. If they just laser printed a new set that sort of sucks. for me.

HA HA I checked it out, the Super Deluxe release has the postcards (http://www.amazon.com/Exile-Main-St-Super-Deluxe/dp/B0039ZF89G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1274227561&sr=1-1), but they are separated and stacked. The original postcards in mint shape are connected by a perforated edge, so you can hang them falling down in a row, fucking sweet virginia that makes me happier than all get out! :D

I have the original album, postcards, sleeves, mint vinyl and it kicks ass on the re-issue. (y)

Happy

recommendation; buy this set now (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320539343394&rvr_id=&crlp=1_263602_263622&UA=WVF%3F&GUID=5a3ab50b1260a075f8a5ede5ffffa3b9&itemid=320539343394&ff4=263602_263622), it has the original equipment.
