The Rolling Stones - Satanic Sessions - Volume One, Two & Three (4+4+4 CD, 1997)



The infamous Midnight Beat 4-disc boxed sets, Satanic Sessions is an obsessive's dream. Documenting the sessions for "Their Satanic Majesties Request" and the associate singles, the box takes listeners through multiple (and often abortive) instrumental takes of songs both released and unreleased. Because these generally aren't the final takes, few have the additional overdubs that would be added at subsequent multitrack stages, although "Citadel" (which is present in its near-finished final instrumental take) is a welcome exception. The set ends with several takes of "Jigsaw Puzzle," which of course would not be released in completed form until "Beggars Banquet." Quality is absolutely stellar throughout.
