Pink Floyd's opus, The Wall, is now available in a special "Immersion" edition – 7 discs! – featuring video footage from the band's 1980 tour, a Behind The Wall documentary, a live recording of songs from the album and CDs of Roger Waters' original demos and the band's works-in-progress. Rolling Stone has an exclusive stream of the band demo of "Young Lust," one of the album's hardest rockers. The starker demo version emphasizes the song's funky bass line and a toned-down, almost relaxed vocal.

“Help Me”

Joni Mitchell | 1974

Joni Mitchell wrote and recorded this song for her album Court and Spark, but she had to switch from her regular band to make the song sound exactly the way she wanted. "I had attempted to play my music with rock & roll players," she told Rolling Stone. "They’d laugh, 'Awww, isn't that cute? She's trying to teach us how to play.'" Mitchell switched to a jazz band, Tom Scott’s L.A. Express, and scored the biggest hit of her career in the process.
