Stones covers on Gift of Screws

[dontlookdown]

Has anyone read why all the Stones covers from GOS were left off of SYW.
I'm assuming the obvious - that the band wanted all original material on the album.
I would love it if they end up on some official release some day.

Also - I'm listening to the GOS demos for the first time since April 15th.
Wow - so many of the tracks were great as they were - before the SYW remastering and Stevie-izing.

I think Down On Rodeo would have fit really well on the album and could have become a classic Fleetwood Mac track - on the level of Never Going Back Again. It's a gorgeous song.

And since I'm already off topic I'll delve deeper into a tangent....

I think Sorcerer and Candlebright should have been on SYW - replacing Running Through The Garden and Smile At You or Goodbye Baby. Then, we would have a truly excellent FM album.
For me - Lindsey's songs are holding up much better than Stevie's.
