Rolling Stones to re-issue Sticky Fingers

The album will be re-issued in the UK on 25 May, featuring a slew of never-before-heard tracks on the Deluxe and Super Deluxe editions.

These include an alternate recording of ‘Brown Sugar’ featuring Eric Clapton as well as previously unreleased interpretations of ‘Bitch,’ ‘Can’t You Hear Me Knocking’ and ‘Dead Flowers’; an acoustic version of ‘Wild Horses’ and five live tracks recorded at The Roundhouse in 1971 including ‘Honky Tonk Women’ and ‘Midnight Rambler.’

The Super Deluxe edition will also feature ‘Get Your Leeds Lungs Out,’ the 13-track audio recording of the Stones’ gig in Leeds in March 1971, shortly before their “exile” in France began.

The band will also play series of live dates in North America for the first time since 2007. The Zip Code Tour, so named because of the album's artwork, runs from 24 May in San Diego and they’ll play 15 dates, ending up in Quebec on the 15th of July.
