(8/15/02, 12 p.m. ET) -- More details are emerging about Forty Licks, the upcoming Rolling Stones best-of collection.
The two-CD compilation, which the band personally selected, is due October 1 from Virgin Records. It will be preceded on August 28 by "Don't Stop," one of four new numbers included in the project. "Don't Stop" and the three other new songs--"Keys To Your Love," "Losing My Touch," and "Stealing My Heart"--were recorded earlier this year in Paris with producer Don Was. A video for "Don't Stop" is set to debut September 9.
Initial pressings of Forty Licks will feature four separate slipcase covers for the CD jewel case. A limited-edition, sequentially-numbered set for collectors will also be issued. The album will come packaged with a 24-page color booklet full of classic Stones photos.
A full tracklisting for Forty Licks hasn't been announced, but some of the tracks that will be included are: "Gimme Shelter," "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction," "Get Off My Cloud," "Ruby Tuesday," "Paint It Black," "Start Me Up," "Brown Sugar," "Miss You," "Happy," "Let's Spend The Night Together," "Jumping Jack Flash," "Street Fighting Man," "Honky Tonk Women," "Sympathy For The Devil," "You Can't Always Get What You Want," "Tumbling Dice," "Beast Of Burden," "Mixed Emotions," and "It's Only Rock & Roll (But I Like It)," along with the four new songs.

Excellent, I mean how bloody refreshing. How many times has Sympathy For The Devil turned up on a compilation; let's see-- 'Gimme Shelter','Hot Rocks', 'Rolled Gold'& 'Brown Sugar', and 'Honky Tonk Women', nah! forget it! The group no matter what the arse lickers here say, treat thier fans like twats; end of story! You can call me an arsehole, you can call me a whiner, or disloyal, but Mick & Keith can stick this burnt offering right up thier retiring back-sides.Fourty years or not, they are fucking lazy, maybe not on the road, but thier songwriting days ended with 'Some Girls'-and that's a fact people. |

So gypsymofo tell us how you really feel.I'll buy it.If for no other reason than to get the new tunes and to have a career retrospective disk for the car.
Are they as prolific as they once were?No.Are they still capable of writing work of genius?I think so.Hell people were saying the same thing about Dylan and then out of the blue he releases Time Out Of Mind followed by Love And Theft.It would appear that the Stones are rediscovering some of their "lost gems".This bodes very well for more output of quality material.I mean shit they layed down rough mixes for 28 brand new tunes in Paris in a few short weeks.
To just write them off as songwriters after Some Girls sells them way too short!They can,and I think will,blow us all away on this tour followed by a great new disk.
Riffhard-I'm no twat and I kiss no one's arse!

Does that make you feel better that now you got what you asked for? Hope so........... |
