Culled from the Rolling Stones' massive archive, 1975's METAMORPHOSIS is the band's sole rarities compilation featuring material from the Stones' fertile '60s and '70s era. Cherry picked by former manager Allen Klein as a result of a bitter lawsuit that found a similar anthology contrived by Bill Wyman going unreleased, this treasure trove of cuts is a boon to both die-hard and casual Stones fans. It kicks off with a lush, orchestrated version of "Out Of Time," one of a handful of outtakes (along with "Heart Of Stone") featuring a studio full of session musicians including John McLaughlin, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Jones.

Overseen by Mick Jagger and then manager Andrew Oldham, these tracks provide interesting insight to a time when the Stones' success allowed them to dish off songs to other UK artists, using versions like these as demos. Other highlights include a killer cover of Stevie Wonder's "I Don't Know Why" (originally recorded for LET IT BLEED) and "Memo From Turner," a Jagger/Richards number cut with Al Kooper and penned for the soundtrack to the Jagger vehicle Performance. Making its CD debut in 2002, METAMORPHOSIS remains a jewel that still glimmers almost three decades after its release.

Remastered reissue of 1975 compilation, suitable for standard & 'Super Audio' CD players. Digipak.

Liner Note Author: Andrew Loog Oldham.

Personnel: Brian Jones (vocals, guitar, keyboards); Mick Jagger (vocals); Keith Richards, Mick Taylor (guitar).

Audio Remasterers: Jon Astley; Bob Ludwig; Steve Rosenthal; Teri Landi; Paschal Byrne.

5 stars An obscure Stones "must to have" for collectors!
Can't believe that some of the songs on this album never became commercially popularized! "I'm Going Down" is made of the same raw-guts, power-drive sound reminiscient of "Gimme Shelter", "Brown Sugar", and many of the other classic, "hey day" Stones material. Got this CD 'cause I want to retire my old LP of this work as a much admired collectible.

4 stars Weird & Wonderful Gumbo
This cd will mainly appeal to Stones and 60s/70s-era rock fans due to its mishmash of alternate takes and strange throwaways. But that's the core of its beauty; rock n roll shouldn't be slick or tidy and this 1975 release isn't. What it is is a boozy, decadent, sometimes silly, gutsy and at times, inspired collection of odes to sex, drugs and rock n roll. In other words, it's the Stones baby. Put it on, turn it up and relive those wonderful years when outlaws ruled rock, not accountants.

4 stars Oldies But Goodies.
If you like the Rolling Stones' early music, i.e. Aftermath, Out of Our Heads, Hit Makers, etc., you will like this album. Filled with alternative takes and unreleased tracks from the early '60s.
