I tried e-mailing Sirius with the following question but received no response. Sirius' Stones channel plays a version of 'Happy' that I can't place. It sounds like an outtake but probably isn't and I can't find it on any of my many boots. Does anybody know which version of that song they sometimes play aside from the original one? This has been bugging me for months! Thanks.

I'm not sure what its from, but I know which version you're speaking of. It sounds great but Sirius is the only place I've heard it so far. |

I know not of any Happy outtakes on any boots... |

is it the version from the 78 Woodstock Rehearsals?
i haven't heard it on Sirius, but someone mentioned that one of the all-Stones channels plays that one pretty regularly. |

Great question! Thats been bugging me too...
Sounds like Ronnie on lead...not Taylor.
It's a really crappy version too - the sound quality is horrible...
Started off with no drums...
very hard to decipher |

so that indeed sounds like the 78 Woodstock Rehearsals rendition. interesting choice!
i really dig it, but the sound quality is not too brilliant.

Thanks all. I knew I came to the right place! Anyway, I have a 4cd boot of the Woodstock rehearsals but it's incomplete and unfortunately does not include 'Happy'. Can someone please tell me where I can find it or download it. I tried the Rocks Off torrent site but it was not listed. Thanks. |

Yes, it is the '78 Woodstock rehearsals version of Happy that they play fairly regularly on Sirius. They also play a live version that sounds to me like it is '75 LA Forum. Very unusual choices! |

So playing bootlegs on the air is legal now?..Or are these perhaps cleaned up Stones approved archived versions??..Very strange indeed... |

Yeah - I always found it so totally odd that they played this crummy boot version...
At least play one of the totally rocking version from the 72 tour |

They've also been playing an outtake that I don't recognize...it starts off with Mick singing what sounds like,"Knocking on the bedroom door", several times then disolves into a nice piano based jam...ring any bells for anybody? |
