The Rolling Stones have released a rare radio stream of their track Come On.
It was recorded for the BBC’s Saturday Club in 1963 and features on the upcoming double album On Air, which will launch on December 1.
The collection comprises of rarely heard Stones recordings from their formative years and includes eight songs the band never recorded or released commercially.
They were originally broadcast on bygone UK BBC shows such as Saturday Club, Top Gear, Rhythm And Blues and The Joe Loss Pop Show between 1963 and 1965.
A statement on the album reads: “To help recapture the spirit of the songs when they were first performed, the tapes have gone through a process called audio source separation, which involved de-mixing the transcripts and allowing engineers at Abbey Road access to the original instrumentation and voices within each track, so that they could be rebuilt, rebalanced and remixed to achieve a fuller, more substantial sound.”
The album follows the release last month of the Rolling Stones On Air book, which was written by Richard Havers and documents the history of the band through their television and radio appearances.
