This title is the second in the Rare Recording Session series, and this time it is the unreleased session sound source of "Dirty Work" held in Paris in February 1985. Anyway, the sound quality is all at the official level like “1979-1983”, and even with “Loving You Is Sweeter Than Ever” that has been distributed so far, the quality is different.

All of the tracks, including rare tracks, have been released for the first time in unreleased or upgraded versions, and their high content and quality have made them a hot topic among Stones fans around the world. thing. Anyway, the splendor of the full-length content and the high degree of perfection of the outtakes set it apart from other session sound source items, so it is a must-have item for fans. The details of each track are as follows. (1. Loving You Is Sweeter Than Ever) This is one of the many cover recordings from the ``DIRTY WORK'' session, and the upgrade in sound quality is amazing. (2. Talk Is Cheap) The Complete Works site also has a surprising song title for the outtakes from this session, and that is "Talk Is Cheap." Although the song has the title of Keith's solo album, it is a slow ballad typical of Keith at this time, and is a rough and loose performance lasting over 10 minutes. In the song, Keith sings "Talk Is Cheap," which was later used as the album title. (3. What Am I Supposed To Do) There is a song called "What Am I Gonna Do With Your Love" in the outtakes of "DIRTY WORK", and this is a rehearsal that can be called its prototype. Moreover, in addition to the Stones members, Bobby Womack and Don Covay participated on vocals in the performance, which lasted more than 15 minutes. The soulful jam number "Invitation" is famous among the outtakes they participated in, but this one is more of a ballad-like jam, and the scene where Ronnie starts singing in place of Mick, who is absent, is rare. (4. Stick It Where It Hurts) Mick was busy with the production and promotion of his solo album ``SHE'S THE BOSS'', ​​so he prioritized that and did not participate in the Stones' ``DIRTY WORK'' session. This is an unfinished song led by Ronnie for a while. Also, Keith's guitar is playing on the left channel, and Ronnie sings in a Stones session, a loose but valuable session. (5-7. Can't Cut The Mustard) The Ronnie-led recording was officially known as "Had It With You," and this song was born during a session without Mick. At that point, Ronnie started singing "Can't Cut The Mustard" from Keith's Chuck Berry-style jam, and that's when Ronnie came up with the line for "Had It With You." An upgraded version of the process of creating such a song. (8. Victor Hugo) While the straight rock'n'roll jam of the same session continues, Keith starts singing lyrics that are clearly aimed at Mick. It is a session take that becomes clear from the appearance of Mick's nickname "Brenda" at the time, which Keith revealed in his autobiography. 01. Loving You Is Sweeter Than Ever/02.
