Some of the points they make are reasonable enough, but unfortunately the way they're put across make them look like a pair of miserable tossers who need to lighten up a bit and get laid for the first time.

Nail on head.
Just to add for anybody that doesn't know that J'accuse was a series where each week a cultural institution was knocked down in the name of trendy entertainment,and was probably watched by about 374 people.
well said . . . agreed

I 've never heard about "J'accuse" from Channel 4.
I bought Norman's book many years ago but didn't realize his views hadn't changed.
They call Mick Jagger and the Stones, the" Methuselahs "of the rock 'n' roll world ?
In the 60s , it was common for popular music bands to speak out against the war .
What do these critics want from the band ? Being the same ?
Why make a great record when you can sell a great t-shirt for $35?
Sad but true.
yeah. And about 372 of them were idiots like me who only watched it because we were Stones completists who felt the need to record everything, no matter how shite it was.
And me!
Anyway,i cant completely knock early Channel 4,it did after all give us the red triangle
absolutely!
Talk about your favorite band.

Well, it's been over twenty years since this video was made and the Rolling Stones are still playing to 70k seat stadiums and the critics in this video have never been heard from again.
On the other hand some valid points are brought up. The video of Jagger trying to sell t-shirts is beyond pathetic as is the Stones refusal (at times) to grow up musically. How could they write tunes like Salt of the Earth in their 20's yet produce songs with such little substance as "She Saw Me Coming" in their 60's? The public expects more from the biggest band in the world.
Jagger must get it through his head that 70 year old men are not going to have pop hits. The Stones should concentrate on making great music again and leave the hits to stars who are literally young enough to be their great grandchildren.
The Stones desperately need to change the business model of the last 21 years if they are going to continue (I believe they will record + tour in the near future) these monster tours are just too much at this point. We've been there and done that better than anyone has ever done before...Sometimes more is just more.
Scaled down tours and serious albums that matter would gain them back some of the respect that they have lost over the years...The Stones need to find a producer who has the balls to tell them no if they want to make the late in the game classic that they are capable of making... If the Stones were to make that type of serious/scaled back album/tour the public and critics would eat it up. It would make for a Santana like comeback where the Stones would win album of the year at the Grammy's and be the critics darling of the moment... Or they can at 70 years old continue to sing about their cocks as they do in Rough Justice.
The path for success for the Stones in 2010 is an obvious one,but they seem to not be able to see the trees through the forest. Why make a great record when you can sell a great t-shirt for $35?

It was great when they returned in 1989, they recorded great songs and played wonderful concerts from 89 on, but this video is a lowpoint of their career. So embarrassing, so greedy, so stupid.

Let me tell you one thing. As a new fan, I don't feel pushed to buy anything I see in the rolling stones store. In fact I don't feel like I need to buy anything except the remastered studio albums, ya ya's and a few other things.
As for the t-shirts, gimme a @#$%& break. these are the cheapest and the coolest t shirts out there. hell yeah, that logo is worth a lot, because its the symbol of the greatest rock n roll band in the world. compared to "designer" logo product prices,30 bucks for a neat little t shirt is really nothing.

Although I agree the Jagger merchandising video is pretty lame, the other people talking in this clip are just pathetic. Half of what they say is based on opinion and not fact. Typical bullsXXt critics. They are so far up their own asses I'm surprised they could see the Stones on the Steel Wheels Stage.
Oh it's the 80's, you shouldn't play Under My Thumb now!!! Bollocks, it's a great song, if you don't like it, tough sxxt!
Oh it's the 80's, they're not moving forward and are out of touch with the times?? Should Keith and Ronnie strap on those Keyboards with Guitar Necks and Replace Charlie with a machine called Roland???? Pass.
Not talented enough to do something artistic? Simple, become a critic and slag off those who are. Stupid pretentious Yuppy turds!
I HATE PRETENTIOUS CRITICS, PATHETIC TURDS, ALL OF THEM!!!!!!
Ok, rant over!!

While these sad twats were wanking over some cosmo mag the Stones were on stage kicking ass as ever... Lou Reed... come on seriously???
The merch from Steel Wheels/Urban Jungle was great, I had loads of the T-shirts (worth a few quid on ebay now too) and as for the Logo comments just @#$%& off! The tongue logo is up there with Coca Cola, Nike, etc instantly recognisable..
The Stones kick ass end of, @#$%& off yuppy ass holes!

Well I thought that doc was fine really. Of course it set out to ruffle a few feathers and why not?
While it was plain stupid to take issue with performing Under My Thumb the points about Van and Lou were well made. How many times have we looked to the likes of Van, Lou, Neil Young etc and wished the Stones would take on a little bit of their integrity?
Sean O'Hagan gave Exile a great review recently so you can't say he ain't a Stones fan. And like it or not, he's not alone in taking a pop at the band for selling out. That footgage of Mick's "marketing chat" speaks volumes.

"How could they possibly need money from a beer company".
The conclusion I came to after watching this video: It seems that this programme is about Mother Teresa, not the Stones. At least the moral standard they apply to them is quite close to absolute holiness.
i think it's great to know that even in 89 they were in a position to milk beer companies for sponsorship money.
They stones released 3 studio albums during the last 20 years and I'm glad to know that they would rather make money touring and selling "merch" than forcing me into buying shitty studio albums, which, unlike t shirts, are a must have for every fan.
I think there is a rule in music industry, either you make money off your own name, or somebody else does. They are not that stupid.

This is all subjective and the same old stuff that is repeated by critics over and over again. Why bother?
At the end of the day the only thing that matters is if you find joy still with them. Most people on this board do, and look forward to hearing what they have to offer next. I know I do...

Time waits for no one................ Mcartney is still good, very good, but there will be no more band on the run; Sprinsteen is still great, but born to run is very far away and new recordings are nice, but ne sure no one will reach that musical level; Dylas is still on the road making good new stuff, but there will be no new Blood on the tracks ; ..............and so on........... I know there is people waiting for a new EOMS, but they do not realize how lucky they are to have an original EOMS among others great albums by the Rolling Stones and other artists............. I'm still waiting for a new Machine Head, but Blackmore is not going to play rock anymore, but i am happy because the original Machine head exists and because i still enjoy hearing it (as well as hearing new Blackmore classical music)
be happy and enjoy what you have already got, the best years of R&R that never will be back again!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im pretty sure The Stones have got a few more tricks up their sleeve yet.
