Classic Rock Bootleg

Prior to their 1978 US Tour from late May to early June the Rolling Stones took up residence for approximately two weeks in the tiny village of Woodstock in upstate New York at Todd Rundgren's Bearsville Studio for rehearsals (like normal bands do)
They were joined by Sugar Blue on harp and Ian McLagen on keyboards. During these sessions they not only rehearsed material from their latest LP's they also tried out some nifty Rock n Roll/blues numbers from way back when.
And yes they even did the odd rarity "C...sucker Blues" and briefly laid their sweaty hands on early Jagger/Richards compositions like Play With Fire and Tell Me. Plus it's all in Glorious studio soundboard stereo!
In general the sound quality is great but it does vary a bit across the two discs so I have included a short sample of a tune that I picked at random for demonstration purposes...the link to it is below.
