Rolling Stones team up with Starbucks

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK -- Coffee giant Starbucks and Virgin Records are co-releasing a CD of rare Rolling Stones remixes, B-sides and hard-to-find live recordings, the band announced on its Web site Wednesday.

Rarities: 1971-2003 will be released in Starbucks stores and in other retail outlets in the United States and Canada on Nov. 22.

The coffee company's music arm, Starbucks Hear Music, worked with the record label and the veteran British rockers to comb through the band's extensive archives.

Among the 16 tracks: a cover of Chuck Berry's "Let it Rock," originally released as a B-side to the 1971 single "Brown Sugar," and alternate takes of several of the band's biggest hits, including live versions of "Tumbling Dice," "Wild Horses" and "Beast of Burden," and a dance remix of "Miss You."

"With every studio session, there are always songs that never appear on the final album and at the time you think, `What a shame that song did not make it,'" Mick Jagger said.

...

Aw. Shameful.

..about the song not making the album, that is. What's going to happen to it? Fiddles.

You damned cynic. It's like you think they haven't found the pulse of music today.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 27 October 2005 00:05 (twenty years ago)

have they found keith richards' pulse?

The undead laugh at your suggestion.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 27 October 2005 00:07 (twenty years ago)

This sort of thing bothers me, but I can't really justify my indignance.

― Hurting (Hurting), Thursday, 27 October 2005 00:08 (twenty years ago)

i wonder which song got the bump so "sweet neo con" would make this record.

― jagged little filly (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 27 October 2005 00:09 (twenty years ago)

classic!

― tricky (disco stu), Thursday, 27 October 2005 00:19 (twenty years ago)

I imagine "Cocksucker Blues" won't make the cut.

― General Doinel (Charles McCain), Thursday, 27 October 2005 00:19 (twenty years ago)

No, it will be an uncut version for this release.

*drum fill*

thank you.

Stones tracks I'd like to see 12"s of:

Can't You Hear Me Knocking (extend that bitch even more, fuck yeah)
Miss You
Emotional Rescue
Heaven (dub breakdown in the middle)
Undercover of the Night
Rock and a Hard Place (lots of echoed shouts of "ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and "HARD PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

― The Good Dr. Bill (The Good Dr. Bill), Thursday, 27 October 2005 02:15 (twenty years ago)

There is a 12" of "Miss You"! It's like nine minutes long! There's a harmonic solo! It rules.

― sleeve (sleeve), Thursday, 27 October 2005 02:36 (twenty years ago)

sleeve otm. It's the only thing I owned by the Rolling Stones for the longest time.. until I started picking up the 60s CDs recently.

― iDonut B4 x86 (donut), Thursday, 27 October 2005 04:04 (twenty years ago)

There is a 12" of "Miss You"! It's like nine minutes long! There's a harmonic solo! It rules.

And mine was on PINK VINYL!

― xero (xero), Thursday, 27 October 2005 04:06 (twenty years ago)

If if has the 12" version of "Too Much Blood", then I'll be happy.

― Jedmond (Jedmond), Thursday, 27 October 2005 12:27 (twenty years ago)

So to go ahead and start up a new thread right here in the middle, what other Rolling Stones 12"s are there?

― matt2 (matt2), Thursday, 27 October 2005 15:13 (twenty years ago)

Anybody checked the "Just Another Night" Jagger 12" lately? Arthur Baker and Bill Laswell on the mix. It's a badboy.

― Pharmaceutical Executive, Thursday, 27 October 2005 15:31 (twenty years ago)

someone wanna YSI that Stones "Miss You" 12"?

― The Good Dr. Bill (The Good Dr. Bill), Thursday, 27 October 2005 15:44 (twenty years ago)

― justsaying, Thursday, 27 October 2005 16:03 (twenty years ago)

I've seen a couple bootleg CDs of 12-inch remixes--Armand Van Helden did one in the late '90s!

― Matos-Webster Dictionary (M Matos), Thursday, 27 October 2005 16:05 (twenty years ago)

Looking forward to hearing the 12-inch mix of "Miss You" -- anyone have it yet?
