Mick & Keef Shine a Light to Un-Earth a Couple of Hot Rocks

This week I will be mostly wearing a fucking bit grin on my face the size of Cheryl Cole’s e-mail to Max Clifford People! Please do not adjust your set as this is Mol’s Sound Words and not one of Jessie’s Fashion Tips Anyway, the reason for my new found joy is Mick & Keef have been rummaging through their archives like ferocious Beavers and found four undiscovered songs that should have appeared on the greatest album ever made: The Stones’ 1972 classic, Exile on Main Street. Needless to say I’m as excited as a Little Red Rooster during mating season! The four tracks they found are called: Plundered My Soul, Dancing in the Light, Following the River and Pass the Win and I really can’t wait to hear them not just because they are Stones’ songs, but because they were recorded during a time when they were without question of a doubt the greatest rock n’ roll band in the world. This also coincides with a new documentary about the making of ‘Stones in Exile’ which, in my opinion, is way overdue. It’s due for release in the middle of May 2010 Now I’m not always a big fan of re-issues and these kind of ‘discoveries’, but in this instance (obviously) I’m over the fucking moon So, people. Do your self a favour, if you don’t own ‘Exile’ get out there and buy a copy. And please, watch the film when it comes out as well. You’ll thank me for it one day Mol
