After ExileOn Mainstreet...
Universal is in talks with the band about finalizing the next project, with the label keen on
one or two major reissues per year. Universal's deal covers the catalog from "Sticky
Fingers" onward, and Andrew Daw, marketing director of the Universal Strategic
Marketing division of Universal Music Group International, cites next year's 30th
anniversary of "Fingers" as one possible project with strong commercial potential.
Meanwhile, this fall will bring the release of a remastered collector's boxed set of all 14
post-1971 studio albums on heavyweight vinyl, although future plans will ultimately be
dictated by the success of "Exile

ROLLING STONES PRODUCER SAYS 10 ALBUMS OF OUTTAKES POSSIBLE
Rolling Stones producer Don Was says that there are easily enough gems in the
band's vaults to release 10 new high quality studio albums. Was, who remixed and co-
produced the newly finished tracks on the upcoming Exile On Main Street reissue due
out on May 18th, told Rolling Stone that if he had his druthers he'd dip next into the
band's late '70s Paris sessions, saying, "There's a lot from the Some Girls and
Emotional Rescue period. There are eight or nine really good songs that don't go on
the album each time for some reason -- maybe there's too many ballads or something
like that. But they could make a lot of albums from unused material."

The making of Exile On Mainstreet
Sex, drugs, rock ’n’ roll. The Rolling Stones didn’t invent the formula. But they lived it
like no other band in history. And when the rapacious taxmen of England came
demanding more cash than Mick Jagger and Keith Richards — not to mention
bandmates Charlie Watts, Bill Wyman and Mick Taylor — had or cared to pay in the
spring of 1971, the Stones moved their party to the South of France
