Love the title song - maybe THE lost classic (other then "Winter").
I know "Zero" sucks, but love the bad attitude all over this album.

There are many good things about DW. Firstly, the sound of the guitars. Secondly, the guitar playing. Thirdly, some of the songwriting (One Hit, Fight, Harlem Shuffle, Dirty Work, Had It With You, Sleep Tonite). Finally, I like Mick's shouting (not when he sounds like being choked, though).
The last hard rocking stones album, imo.

Just an observation: I find it strange that in 'Dirty Work' threads the name Steve Lilleywhite very seldom features...

...who is also a major culprit for the drum sound alone.
I don't like DW much either but if I think of the actual songs it is not THAT bad. "One Hit", Harlen Shuffle", "Too Rude", "Winning Ugly", "Dirty Work" and "Had It With You" are actually pretty good. Then "Fight" and...okay "Sleep" are acceptable. But "Zero" and "Hold Back" are SO bad that they inflict such major damage on the reputation as whole.

Yeah, I always liked "Winning Ugly" .
It sometimes gets lumped with "Zero" on here. Lots of difference - mainly the Motown beat of WU and many times better lyrics. Again, a little venom.
